The Law of Attraction Chapter 215

Lana’s whole day was so busy inside the review center that she had no time to think about any other thing until night. She focussed on every lesson and worked hard on every new thing taught to them because she did not want to fail in the licensure exam. If possible, she was aiming to be a topnotcher in that exam.

She had dinner with other reviewers after the tiring learning schedule. She had made a few new friends there and was trying her best to mingle with others unlike before. She wanted to behave like a normal woman who had friends and was not wary of people around her. Her psychiatrist has suggested her to try to be more loose and learn to trust more on people around her, so she was trying her best to listen to that.

She looked at her wristwatch, then twirled her last bite. She was strictly on her schedule and didn’t allow herself any slacking off from any lessons, she strictly followed the rules one of herself made rules was that she would be the one deciding when to call Liam and that Liam would not call her unless there was anything urgent.

As soon as she finished eating, she bid farewell to everyone to go back to her room. She quickly cleaned up and changed into her sleepwear.. It took her a while fixing her hair in the mirror. Finally, when she was satisfied with her hair, she felt her face didn’t look very good!

“Should I put on a little more make-up?” she whispered while she looked at her reflection in the camera on her phone. Last night, Liam commented on how pale she looked and he got worried if she was sick or not feeling well. 

“That over possessive husband of mine…”

Lana grabbed her lipstick thinking about Liam and put some on her lips, painting her lips red. It took her a while before she got satisfied with her own reflection in the camera before she made a video call to Liam. 

Earlier she had never cared how she looked, but ever since Liam became her heartbeats, she noticed how she started being so conscious of her looks whenever she would face Liam. She always wanted to look her best whenever he looked at her.

As always, it only took just one ring before Liam answered her call. Lana felt her heart leaped seeing Liam on her mobile phone. His hair was wet and messed up and a beautiful smile was pasted on his face.

“Your hair…” she commented. Liam winked at her and said, “Yeah, I just finished showering and will now get dressed.”

Lana’s face blushed as she whispered, “I’ll call back after three minutes. Go dress up first.”

Liam chuckled and said, “No, I’m good. I can put on my boxers while we talk. Don’t worry, you will only see my face on the camera unless you want to see my whole body shot, and if you want to, then I won’t mind showing myself off to you.”

“Shameless,” Lana mumbled and Liam laughed more.

“How’s your day?” he asked while he dried his hair with a small towel.

Lana smiled and enthusiastically told Liam her whereabouts the whole day. After that Liam nodded then asked, “Did you put on make-up today before calling?”

Lana’s face flushed as she stuttered, “No. Uhm, just lipstick. Why?” she even bit and licked her lips in front of him.

“Your lips are swelling in red. Stop that…” Liam murmured in his hoarse voice. Watching Lana biting and licking her lips was torturous for him. He should have been the one doing that to her on her behalf.

“Such a tease… Do you want me to spend another tormenting night just imagining you are here by my side.” Liam complained. Lana laughed at his sulky expressions.

A playful smile curved on her beautiful lips and she naively murmured, “Sorry, but I can’t help it. You said my lips are swelling so I have to check.”

She bit more on her lips, upper and lower lips alternately and intentionally licked them as well.

Liam’s face crumpled as he added, “Cruel.”

Lana stopped and asked, “So, tell me how’s your day?”

Liam then took his time to tell Lana about Luo’s transfer to Yao’s legal firm like some of his other lawyers.

“But I thought Luo was very loyal to you?” Lana beamed in disbelief. Luo was nice and based on her observation she seemed happy and satisfied working with Liam. The two had a great connection and rapport as well.

“Nah… Luo is only loyal to money. She is a very challenge loving woman, so maybe it’s a challenge for her to go to Yao legal firm and establish herself in a new place. She’s been in this firm for quite long, so maybe she got bored and was looking for some change.”

“Didn’t you give her a better offer?” Lana asked.

‘I did give her a better offer to look after you love.’ Liam answered at the back of his mind. But of course he voiced it out differently, saying, “I did. But she said she wanted to experience an unfamiliar environment and try something new. She wants some challenge.”

Lana no longer pondered since she thought Luo might have her personal reasons to change job, just like her. Besides, it would be beneficial for her to know and work with at least one person she was comfortable with once she entered Yao legal firm.

“How about Gale? Did you check on her?” Lana reminded him because she was worried about Gale too.

“Yeah, I did check, but she said she’s fine. I think Noah had given her some kind of offer.” Liam opened up and informed Lana what Luo saw.

Lana nodded and said, “she probably doesn’t want to bother you anymore.” Gale left Liam for Gilbert, but Liam still helped her in her tough time. It was not Gale’s pride that probably prevented her to ask for more help, but she was shy and Lana explained that to Liam.

Liam chuckled and shook his head. “Why are you explaining to me on her behalf?”

Lana pouted her lips and said, “I’m not. Just that I feel like that’s the reason she won’t ask you for help.”

“That’s fine with me Lana she herself need not explain since it’s her life. I’m no longer a part of it so she can decide whatever she wants with her life now.”

Lana did not respond.

“I love you,” she heard Liam whisper. Her heart raced and her face turned crimson.

“I miss you…” she bashfully replied. She tried to reply with the same words, but for some reason it just could not come out.

How Liam was dying to pull Lana out from the phone and lock in a tight embrace that instant.

He could feel Lana’s love and her struggle to be vocal about it. Liam smiled at her and asked, “what did you eat for dinner?”

They talked for hours about various things with sense and even nonsense topics. Both still held the phone while laying down on the bed.

Liam chuckled because it was Lana who first dozed to sleep. She still had her phone focused on her sleeping state sideways.

“I love you.” He whispered and kissed the screen of his phone. Then he closed his eyes with a smile on his lips without turning it off and soon dozed off.
