She Streams on My Platform — Episode 5: His Real Name

Marcus is gone, and Annie wants the truth. Was he hunting Liam? Yes. Will Liam say who he is? He can't, not without losing it all. 'Then you're a stranger.' She gave herself to a man she can't even name, and the tears come.

Alone, Liam takes a call carrying a message from a man who is supposed to be dead: whatever Marcus threatens, don't speak first. Then the caller slips, swapping 'says' for 'said'. Three days later Marcus rings Annie again. Who lives with her? A tenant. Nobody. Name? 'Liam... Low.' Low, Marcus tells her, is a family name. Her tenant is Liam Vale, his nephew, and he owns the platform she streams on. Her debt is wiped. But tomorrow, live on her own stream, Marcus will call her a thief unless Liam speaks first. 'Liam Vale.' 'Who told you that?' Episode 5 ends on the name.
