But I didn’t dare say no, so I watched as they
left.
“Is he gonna offer him a ton of money?”
“Probably not,” the assistant said. “He never
does that.”
“Oh, okay.”
I had no idea what they talked about.
Then, Liam went quiet for a while, and didn’t
even use me for his assistant work.

Then, a month later, I was trending on Twitter with Liam.
Someone had taken a picture of Liam dropping me off, and it said almost the same thing that I had made up: #Liam spotted with mysterious woman! Is it a new romance?”
Liam was super hot right now. The last movie had just finished filming. So the story went up in the top three trends.
People went wild, the media made up all kinds
of stuff. Liam was getting a ton of flack.
But before anything got out of hand, the
trending topic disappeared.
Liam’s company lawyer sent out a legal notice.
People knew that something was up.
[What’s happening? Why is this going down so
fast? Someone powerful must have gotten
involved!]
[Rumor is, she has a super famous background. That’s all I can say.]
[Okay Liam, so you were going up in the world!]
[So, is it true? Is he dating someone?]
[It’s probably true.]
Chloe called me the second she saw it.
“What’s going on?! Are you dating Liam?!”
“No!” I said. I was freaking out.
Even though it was true that Liam had dropped
me off, I didn’t think anyone would take a
picture.

I didn’t want to hurt Liam’s career!
I had to make it go away!
I was just about to call Kai, when Liam sent me
a message.
Liam: Ginny, don’t do anything. I’ll respond.
I was worried about his career and immediately
typed a reply.
Me: Don’t do anything stupid! I’m okay!
Liam didn’t say anything.
Then, Chloe texted me.
“You have to! You have to look at Liam’s
tweet!”
I opened Twitter, and it nearly crashed.

Ten minutes later, I finally got it to load. Then I
saw Liam’s post.
He posted the old photo that I had kept on my
desk.
Then he said it.
Liam: She’s the one I’ve had a crush on since I
was a kid. And she’s the reason why I’m here.
My heart felt like a soda that had been shaken.
It was going crazy.
I thought about that yellowed love letter in the
frame.
Years later, his love was being revealed for the
entire world to see.
Ding- I got a new text from Liam.
く
Liam: Come downstairs.

I jumped out of bed, putting on my jacket.
Then I ran out the door.
Liam, who was on Twitter a second ago, was
right in front of me.
I wanted to hug him, but I didn’t want to get
caught.
So I tried to sneak over to him while looking
around.
“Why did you come here? It’s dangerous!”
Before I could finish, he pulled me into a hug.
“What are you doing? Am I that bad?”
<
“Hey, watch it, you’re going to get us in
trouble!”
I tried to get away from him, but I was stuck.
I buried my face in his jacket, “I’m your career
fan.”
Liam laughed. “I thought you were my looks
fan.”
“Am I that shallow?!”
“Then, who’s the person who had a picture of
me in their office?”
cc
I looked up at him, embarrassed.
“How did you get into my office without asking
me?”
<
“Some drunk passed out on their couch. I had
to bring her back to her room. How else would I
know where her room was?”
Okay, fine.
“Fine, so you saw me. Go home. You have a job
tomorrow!”
I knew his schedule because I had been working
for him.
Liam:

“”
“Are you sure there’s nothing else you wanna
say?”
I shook my head.
“Fine, I’m leaving,” Liam said.
But he didn’t leave. He walked really slow,
<
stopping and looking back at me every five
steps.
I just watched him.
Then, Liam got mad.
“Ginny, if you don’t tell me to stay, I swear I’m
out!”
I thought for a second.
“Liam, are you throwing a tantrum?”
Liam was quiet and red.
Okay, fine.
“Buddy can do a flip! Do you wanna see?”
Liam was back in a second.
“Let’s go, I can’t wait to see Buddy flip.”
