My CEO (1/3)

Chapter 13

Liam Leighton

"Christian, what could I help you with?"

"This is alright Liam, just don't stumble over anything, okay?"

I sat on a chair near me, I just felt miserable because I couldn't even give him any help. I scrolled through my phone. I found a bunch of headliners about the tragedy 2 days ago. The internet almost went down 'cause of that, many huge news companies even interviewed us about this, but Christian just ignored their questions. It must've come from the trauma from losing someone 'cause of the same people. I'm trying to recover from the traumas from that night, it's pretty intense. I wandered around this burnt building trying to calm myself down.

"WATCH OU-!"

"Liaaaaam."

A huge metal bar hit my face and everything went black

"Liam." Christian hugged me when I woke up.

"Wha- what's all of this? Where am I."

I got a huge headache, my body just felt weak.

"This is an ER, you broke your nose."

"What do you mean?

Where's the bathroom? I want to throw up."

Christian led me to the bathroom and helped me.

"Feeling any better?" He patted my back.

"Ye-yeah thanks

I'm so sorry Christian, I've only managed to be a nuisance since we got here."

"That's okay, I understand how this whole business trip has been a whole mess." He hugged me.

"Tha- thank you."

We checked into one of his hotels again, the suite is almost the same as before, just slightly smaller. 

"Liam, what do you want to eat?"

"I'm not sure, I'll eat anything."

"Okay."

I sprawled onto a couch and just thought about how unhelpful I am on this trip.

"You okay Liam?"

"I dunno."

"Just tell me, I won't be mad at you." He crawled next to me
