#Chapter 147: Voluntary Dissolution

Liam’s POV When the next workday arrived, I headed into the office with fresh determination. My aquarium date with Aria had helped given me some new perspective, as well as some much-needed rest, and now I was ready to take on Markus once again. That meant, for now, that I was going to confront Joanna. Enough was enough. I was tired of entertaining her and my father’s delusions about this engagement. If she wasn’t going to voluntarily dissolve this relationship, then I was willing to get lawyers involved. I might have not had as much money as Markus, but I could fight back enough to be an annoyance. Hopefully it didn’t need to come to that. As I walked to Joanna’s office, her assistant glared at me from behind her desk. I tried not to take it personally. From what I could tell, this assistant hated absolutely everyone. I reasoned that Joanna only hired her to help give off a more authoritative air. An assistant like that made Joanna seem more intimidating and unapproachable.
