After a few seconds, he simply removed his hand from the young man's shoulder and stepped back. "Get out," he said coldly before walking to his seat and sat down.
Gray bowed before leaving the room thanking his stars that he did not get punished, at least not yet.
He could only hope and pray that this man was just as kindhearted as his boss was to his subordinates or he did not know how he will live his life from now onward.
Liam scratched his head tiredly and leaned against the backrest of the chair with his smart phone in his hand. He wondered why he will become so involved in a girl that after several refusal and rejection, he will still keep going back.
That could only be done by the other Liam not him. That man was very much obsessed with the princess as well as addicted to her that he had her monitored closely and even did the monitoring himself when he had a loosed schedule.
He knew it was his duty to look after the princess since the man from the future had set everything in place. The man was him but he could not be the man and it pissed him off that he was given such a task of being the girl's husband.
He groaned lightly as he finally made up his mind to call her back. He tried once and twice but the girl left him without patience. He was not very good with human beings.
He spent the few years while the other Liam was living as him locked up in his room underground with computers and other weapons.
The only person he communicated with was the man from the future who he weirdly liked and respected that he took the man as his best friend and family.
So, trying to coax an unhappy lady was not his specialty compared to handling a sniper or hacking whatever he was needed to hack and besides, he might have had a simple crush on the princess but that was more than a decade ago when he saved her life.
He dropped his phone screen-down on the table and massaged his temple.
If anything, he felt anger towards that princess who made someone like him use all his resources including his life to ensure that she survives and instead of trying her best to appreciate all his efforts, she simply pushed him away.
Such a thing was annoying – watching himself trying every day to win her heart without success. Perhaps, doing it himself would have felt very normal and would have all been in the name of love but watching it as a third person, pissed him off.
It was like watching oneself suffer in such manner without making progress. He was lucky the old man came to change the future or he would have lived miserably just like the man lived in the name of love after losing the woman he loved most.
He knew it was him and he would most likely have ended up that way.
Now, he has been assigned to still look after the princess and he knew he could not make a single mistake because he will be forced to live in guilt which might force him to still seek away to travel to the past to correct that mistake. And he dreaded the thought of living like that old man.
He remembered asking him how he was able to make time travelling which was impossible achievable, the old man refused to tell him anything except that he was given a certain time by a woman who worked with him to make it happen.

Rose glared at the phone on the vanity table and returned her gaze to the mirror which had her adjusting her gaze when she saw what she looked like in the mirror.
She was angry with him and refused to pick his call, shouldn't he keep trying to call her? But he did not. He only tried twice, only twice for goodness sake. Did he think calling twice was enough to cajole her?
She applied a lip gloss on her lips before standing up. She picked her phone deciding to give up on waiting for his call as she was going to school. She waited almost all through the night for his call or his visit.
Sitting in the car on her way to school, she pulled her phone out from her bag and blocked his number with the aim of not waiting for his call since his number was blocked.
She was receiving lectures when she glanced at her bag and tried to reach for it subconsciously. She felt that her phone was in silence and since he succeeded once to unblock his number in her phone. He would have done it again and called her.
She stopped that movement and placed her hand on her book but that did not last for long as she reached for her bag again and pulled out her phone. She found out that he had indeed called her.
He left ten missed calls. She smiled and returned her phone into her bag making sure to wait until it gets to thirty before she picks his call.

Liam looked at the screen of his phone as he sat in his office while facing the world outside the transparent ceiling to floor window of his office.
He was forced to wonder how Liam coped with her for so long. He wondered what made her so arrogant when she should be grateful that she finally got recognized as a princess thanks to his help.
He decided to find a way to meet her. However, he was not going to sneak into her room like the old man did.
He called Gray over to his office. "Bring the princess to the private room of any restaurant by dinner time. Make it happen wisely," he ordered his subordinate.
He was not sure how the guy was going to make that happen but he trusted his closest subordinates after all they grew up together and he knew that Gray was not all muscles but he had brains.
All the things to be considered before choosing the restaurant and the way to bring the princess over without making it look like she got kidnapped had to be taking into note.
