Chapter 20

Karen looked at the two boys' shocked faces before facing Geoff, "What's going on?"

Geoff just smiled nervously then looked at his boss, clearly asking for permission. Harry just nodded back then looked at the ground, his feet couldn't stop moving- this is what he expected the most but when he saw his princess' expression, all of his confidence shrank a little. "Mr. Harry is my uhm- boss. He's the next heir to the company but his father decided that his son should work until he reached the top."

Liam just looked at Mr. Styles with his mouth opened. His ears were even redder than before and he clearly couldn't speak- the man he had been talking to for months was his father's boss, who knew? Bobby on the other hand, placed the cake on the table before taking a look at Zayn. Zayn, however, just gave him a confident nod and just looked at his darling Niall, eager to find out his reaction.

"Mr. Zayn is uhm.., his company is like the strings to our puppet. Our company's future lies in his hands because he's our strongest client." Bobby coughed. Niall covered his mouth and just wanted to cry because of the shocking news. He didn't know whether he should be surprised, happy or just plain mad but none of the emotions seem to fit in this current situation. Everyone was quiet until one by one, they shifted their eyes towards Liam and Niall. Nobody ever thought this would happen and so, they were curious of what they had to say.

It was clear that they weren't aware of the two men's career but Liam had a sneak peek of it. He should've known from the house to the garden. No average-earning person could afford a big house like that and especially that kind of car. He felt so stupid at the moment but he absolutely wasn't mad. Both was only worried that this kind of scandal would drift their relationship apart.

Niall just closed his eyes and put on a smile, a very genuine one before shouting, "LET'S EAT!" Everyone just laughed and went to the kitchen to get some plates while Liam whispered a little 'thank you' to his best friend before going to Mr. Styles.

"I'-I'm so sorry if this happened I didn't-" Liam was cut off by Harry's finger on his lips.

"It's okay, my lilipad." Harry whispered lowly and touched Liam's shoulder. "I want to hug you so bad but it's too early.."

Liam's cheeks turned red before both of them walked to the kitchen as if nothing happened. Niall, however, stared at Zayn and continued to absorb all of his features. He should've known just by the appearance that Triple G held something big. A good-looking man like that isn't perfect with just a normal job.

Zayn was typing something on his phone before standing up. He walked closer to Niall with a different kind of smile. It was a kind of smile that you've never seen before, it was so rich and pure but at the same time, worrying. The raven-haired man gave his phone to Niall,
