Mr. President: You Are The Daddy Of My Triplets - Chapter 429

Chapter 429: 429- Georgie

“Woohoo! We did it!” Lisa cheered, gripping the wheel as she sped down the road. Her excitement was infectious, but Aniya, sitting in the passenger seat, just shook her head like she was waking up from a dream.

“How did you even pull that off?” Leaning back her head against the seat she muttered, “We didn’t do anything. You did it! All the credit goes to you.”

Her stomach churned at the thought of how close she’d come to marrying Dorian Maxwell. She shivered slightly and turned towards Lisa, “Are you sure Liam is safe?” She asked her friend worriedly.

Lisa glanced over briefly, smirking, “Relax. He’s fine. The guy’s been doing theatre for the last two years… it was right up his alley. It was his idea, and he was thrilled to do it. The minute he walked out of that room in bridal dress the guards were on him, leaving a clear exit for us to escape.”

Aniya wasn’t convinced, she was still worried about Liam, but Lisa didn’t want to waste a minute now. She waved her off, “Honey. He is fine. Let’s focus on you right now. Okay? We need to head to your place so that you can grab any important documents or …” she trailed off when she saw Aniya shaking her head, “What? Don’t you need them for flying off?”

Aniya shook her head and smiled faintly, “That’s too risky now. I’ll go for fake documents. It will be the worst decision to go back. What if his men are waiting for us?”

Lisa nodded with a thoughtful expression, “Yeah, fair point. My apartment isn’t safe either I guess,” she bit her lip, glancing over at Aniya, “That pretty much leaves us with one option.”

“Liam’s place,” Aniya finished and gazed out of the window.

“It was too easy. I just cried and cried and kept asking for their forgiveness… even I held Maxwell’s feet,” Liam started laughing. Aniya and Lisa kept giggling along with him.

“After a few minutes, Dorian got so busy scolding his guards that I grabbed the chance and ran away. Now here is the twist,” he leaned forward and tapped the coffee table before placing his wine glass, “My place is also not safe. My suggestion is, we all go our different ways and then return when it gets cool.”

Aniya was on her feet when she heard that, “Oh, God. You two risked your lives because of me and now see? And now he is after you two. Why did I involve you?”

“Aniya!” Lisa also got up and tried to hold her, but she had started taking back steps, “Hold it, Aniya… please…” she quickly looked over her shoulder, “Liam. Can you arrange an inhaler?”

“I’m … I’m … good… I don’t … need inhaler… but your lives…” Aniya whispered.

“Listen to me, Aniya,” Liam stepped closer, placing his hands firmly on her shoulders, “Look at me. Please just look at me…”

Aniya was trying to fight her panic attack when Liam shook her a little, “Look at me, Aniya. We all are safe. And we will be out of here soon. That’s all that matters. Unlike you, our savings are in banks so that’s not a problem either. You need to go to Sangua City and get a job inside a big company.”

Aniya looked at him in confusion, “B…big company?”

“Yeah. If Dorian will try to mess up with you then your company might help you. There are two big names, and both have great CEOs who don’t let anyone mess with their employees. MSin Industries or Star Corps. Star Corps has more chances of hiring you because they are new in Sangua. Go to any of them and get hired.”

Get hired for what? I haven’t gotten any degree.

“Any job, Aniya,” Liam knew what she must be thinking, “It might be a low-salary job too. But in these two, you’ll be paid well.”

Aniya nodded when she started feeling better.

“He is right, Aniya,” Lisa came over, “Liam has already contacted a guy who can speed up your process. You just need to sit tight, love.”

George Donovan got out of his car when his chauffeur opened the door for him. He was just back from Aguer and instead of heading to his empty house, he preferred to work in his office. Like a true workaholic, he didn’t have many friends, nor did he have a great social life.

In his childhood when Marissa Sinclair took him in, after his mom’s death, he used to observe her with those dreamy eyes. The way she used to carry herself, and balanced business and family.

He was truly impressed by her and decided that very day that he would become a businessman just like her. Who knows? Someday he might give a tough competition to MSin.

With a smirk, he shook his head. Marissa would surely tease him about it. She was the one who helped him in setting up the business in Sangua.

While passing through the hallways he ignored the whispers that were most of the time about his handsomeness.

Like he knew he was drop-dead gorgeous, but his heart only belonged to one girl. Right?

“Mr. Donovan. There are a few laborers who are intent on meeting you. They have been waiting for you since morning,” several lines appeared on his forehead at the mention of laborers, “Why? What’s the issue? Call them in!”

Five laborers came inside one by one. George Donovan gestured for them to take seats and leaned back, “What is it?”

“Sir, It’s your finance department’s head. He isn’t releasing our salaries because he thinks we didn’t fulfill our side of the commitment. We all know it had been raining like cats and dogs for the last few days. That was not the ideal situation to work on a site.”

“Hmm. Let me talk to him. If it’s only about rain, then your salaries will be released by the evening.”

All the men wearing yellow vests looked at each other in confusion. They were expecting a grumpy CEO who would give them a tough time, but this one resolved the issue immediately.

“So, gentlemen! Anything else?” With embarrassed smiles, they all got up and muttered their thanks before leaving his office.

George Donovan sent a message to Marissa Sinclair, “Hi, Aunt Marissa. Just tried to be like you by being friendly with my workers.”

With a satisfied grin, he rested his head against his seat but then it vanished when her face popped up in his mind.

“Georgie. Do come back to marry me. Okay?”
