Royal Princess: Doted On By The Mafia King

Chapter 201 - Use Me



Rose did not believe what he said at all. She was also not expecting rain to fall tomorrow but she knew he will most likely visit her.

"Give me your phone," he stretched his hands to her and took the phone from her when she gave it to him.

"What do you want to do?" She asked confused.

​ "Someone installed a tracking app on your phone," leaving her question unanswered, he told her.

"I know. My assistant installed it," Rose replied.

"Ok." He continued tapping on the screen. After a few minutes, he gave her the phone and stood up.

"Are you going?" She asked standing up too.

He did not miss the sadness she was trying to hide in her voice. She might not see his face clearly but he saw her well.

She looked sad. He walked to her and took her hands making her surprised but he was also surprised when she did not attempt to pull away from his touch.

"There is no need bottling your feelings. I know how you feel towards me but why do you make so much effort to pretend?

"You are not even pretending properly. You are lonely and scared. It's okay to accept that. Your mother might have left a serious task for you but you have the right to decide how you will do it.

"You father may or may not have betrayed your mother but that doesn't mean I will betray you.

"I am true to my word as far as you are. I will not ask you to trust me immediately but I will ask you to use me.

"Use me for your comfort. It is all part of the contract if you are not comfortable with doing anything with me that is not connected to the contract.

"Use me as your personal therapist. Tell me what is bothering you. I will listen and help you with the emotional support you need.

"It is not only about your vengeance alone but about your life. You can not live your life only for vengeance, it will become meaningless afterwards.

"You are my wife and as your husband, it is my duty to ensure that you are okay. I will let you use me at all times so don't forget, okay?"

After the long speech, she found herself nodding in response. Even if it was all part of the contract she will not want him to see her weak.

"Don't be scared of appearing weak. Sometimes, I am going to cry on your shoulder, I am going to want to touch you.

"That means I will show you my weakness as a man. I want you to show me yours too. I have hard times. You have hard times too.

"Don't you think it is only appropriate to share it since we will live the rest of our lives together?"

She swallowed down the lump that formed in her throat with an expressionless appearance but the amount of emotions she felt at that moment but his words made her eyes sting uncontrollably.

Liam noticed her eyes get glassy. He tightened his hold on her hands and rubbed the back of her hand slowly and assuringly with his thumb.

A bead of tears rolled down one of her cheek. He released her hands and cupped her face in his hands. He slowly rubbed the tears away with his thumb.

Soon more tears flowed and when Rose snapped out of the trance she went into because of the nice words he said to her, she tried to pull away.

He released her face and hugged her tightly. "Use me now that you need someone, okay?"

"You are so cruel. You know the right words to use," she cried as she struggled but his strong hands did not budge. "I don't trust you."

"That is okay. I didn't ask you to trust me but to use me to your advantage. I will get my payment after this," he told her.

After using up her strength to struggle, Rose gave up and rested against him with her body too weak to stand on its own.

The strong hands embracing her and the strong chest muscles with the heart that she heard beating fast – perhaps for her – engulfing her, she found comfort.

It all gave her a foreign but likable and desirable feeling of reassurance. She was really not alone and she could still revenge and be happy.

She had nothing negative on her mind towards what she felt in his arms at that moment and she seemed to want it to last.

She left her hands that were hanging limp by her side and hugged him tightly as she listened to the music the beating of his heart made in her ear.

When it was time for him to leave, Rose felt a strong longing for him to remain and it was only after he had gone that she could wake up from her trance.

She slumped down to her bed and ran her hands through her hair making a decision not to let Liam talk to her the way he did or she might waiver and she won't know what to do if she makes a major decision because of how she felt at that point.

Liam stopped by at a small isolated clinic to see a middle-aged man who was sick. As soon as the man saw him enter the room, the man stood up respectfully.

"Don't bother, sit down. I know you must be tired from all you had to go through. What you need now is rest," he said.

He glanced at Charles who followed him and at glass jug of water. Charles served the man the water from the jug.

"Thank you," the man appreciated as he took the cup with shaky hands.

The man knew Liam was never going to hurt him at this moment but he could not help but tremble visibly before his boss.

His boss was known for his cruelty in the underground world and it will do him no good to offend him.

He also respected the young man who built a name and an empire for himself in only a short period of time.

"What did you find?" Liam asked as he sat down on a chair beside the bed. It seems they prepared well for him arrival by providing such comfortable chair.

It won't be surprising to find out they got it from the doctor's office. The clinic was neat and well taken but for it's purpose, it was not to be too fancy for any reason.

"We lost people to the guards there. I alone survived. I took a video of everything that I witnessed," the man narrated with shaky voice.

He reached into the pillow and pulled out an item. He gave it to Charles who took it and gave it to his boss.

The item which was a  small device looked like a nail cutter but it was actually a camera. It looked clean that no one will get suspicious.

The man still wondered how his boss could make something like that. It was impossible for anyone to get suspicious of it.

He could still not believe that the nail cutter could take videos and record audios making him unable to access whatever was inside without Liam's help.

"Thank you for this," Liam said as he looked at one of his inventions.

When he sent those men away to investigate a research institute in A city, he gave each of them cameras with different unidentifiable shapes of items with important uses.

One of them had the shape of an eyedrop but only one out of the four researchers returned.

"I will use this well to find those people behind it," Liam promised the man.

The researchers might have their personal reason for going into the crazy research institute but h had a deal with them to help them avenge their family members the research institute stole from them.

"Thank you so much," the man appreciated sincerely.

"What will you do afterwards?"

"I don't know but I have always wanted to live a quiet life since my wife died. I will buy a house on an island and make a living as a Fisherman," the man replied with a sad smile.

"Okay. I will have them buy a house for you. You will be under protection until we are sure that you are not hunted down."

"I don't think that will be necessary. A place like that where researchers and other staff die almost every day, I don't think they will care about a missing researcher.

"I will live quietly. I won't be foolish to make them know where I am," the man replied truthfully.

"You will be protected and we will make sure know no one is looking for you from the institute," Charles immediately stopped the man from refusing when he noticed Liam was not in the mood for long discussions.

"Thank you so much,"  the man appreciated.

"Thank you got this too," Liam said as he stood up. "You look lean. Try to eat enough."

"Thank you," the man replied sounding excited over the advice he got from his boss.
