Suddenly, he took a deep breath, placed the cup on the kitchen counter, turned around, and walked away.
When he reached the sliding door, he stopped again, turned around, glanced at the glass door and the large kitchen cabinet against the wall.

Actually, the moment he entered the kitchen, he saw Maya Spencer.
Although she was hiding behind the kitchen cabinet, the glass door by the backyard reflected her silhouette perfectly.
Later, when she secretly changed positions, he also noticed; the opposite cabinet was casting her shadow.
Before this moment, Liam Spencer always thought Maya was playing mind games with him, intentionally distancing herself to pique his curiosity and appetite.
But from her reaction in the kitchen, it seemed she was genuinely avoiding him, and truly didn't want to see him.
