He pulled his shoulders back, forcing a sneer he didn't truly feel. "Everything you've done for me? Cut off from your past? Hah! You're exactly what Maduabuchi warned us about. CEO Chibuzor, you'd better get rid of this woman before she betrays you again."
The words were barely free when the atmosphere snapped.
Chibuzor's gaze locked onto him, cold, sharp, lethal.
Liam's bravado evaporated instantly. He faltered, knees nearly giving way as the young CEO's presence engulfed him like a chilling storm.
"Don't speak unless spoken to."
Chibuzor's voice was soft, but it flayed him raw. Each word hit like a blade carved from ice.
"If I wanted your opinion, I would have asked for it."
Silence slammed into the room.
Not even the chandeliers dared to tremble.
