The Law of Attraction Chapter 286

At Yu Building

Noah massaged his temples in frustration. He was very anxious and he was trying to figure out certain things for himself. He was not aware how he was feeling and wanted to understand his obsession for Luo. 

He wanted her but she kept on rejecting him over and over again. All he wanted to understand was what made her reject him, and not once but over and over again! When he promised that he would marry her, why couldn’t the woman surrender herself then?

It was already evening and here he was… Still at his office thinking about the last night and was trying to place the pieces of the puzzle, called Luo, in the right place.

Last night Luo slept in one of his guest rooms saying she was not pleased with how he acted. She completely ignored him after that. He had never met a woman as complicated as her in his life before.

He, who hated complicated people so much, wondered why he was so into her. Luo said she would think about it first and contact him once she had made a decision. Yet there was no call from her after so many hours.

He was restless as he waited for Luo’s answer to him. He was even contemplating thinking how he should convince her to accept his proposal. Maybe if he told her that she would gain a lot of property and money by marrying him, her mind would accept their relationship faster…

“Aren’t you going to leave today?” Craig asked when he entered his office and saw he was still sitting there.

It was past eight in the evening already. He was so busy thinking about Luo that he didn’t even notice the time. For a second he was embarrassed by the question of Craig but very soon he composed himself and looked at him nonchalantly.

“How’s Gale’s case going?” Noah asked.

Craig chuckled and said, “You’re talking like a programmed machine, that asks me the same question over and over whenever it sees me. 

I bet whatever I say will just enter in your one ear and come out of the other ear, since you are not behaving like yourself lately. I heard Mike has been reporting every detail to you as well so how come it’s as if you are not aware of everything.”

He suspected Noah was love struck with Luo but was keeping it in and was not sharing it to him since he would definitely tease him.

Craig sighed and suddenly blurted out, “Me and Gale are a couple now.”

“What?!” Noah beamed totally shocked by what Craig said. Craig shook his head and chuckled.

“Yeah. It happened really fast, but I’m serious with my feelings towards her.” He confessed. He knew Noah for years. He would only open things up to him if he would do the same. 

He had always been like that. He even got irritated with this and was not able to understand that personality of Noah.

“Hey, I put Gale into your custody to ensure her safety not to…”

“What? Take advantage of her? I told you I love her, okay! And not only this but I’m willing to take full responsibility for her.” Craig defended himself with a crumpled face.

“Still..” Noah could not find the words.

“Still what? I’m not forcing her into anything okay. I respect her thoughts and usually do whatever she decides on… How about you? Tell me, what’s going on between you and Luo, huh?”

Noah was not much surprised that Craig knew about his dilemma. After a few frustrated sighs, Craig finally heard Noah talking. 

Craig knew he could make Noah talk that way only… That was how he was! Craig would be the first one to open up something about himself, then only Noah would do the same with him.

He listened to everything patiently and suppressed himself from commenting in between. He already had a hunch about them both, since he could sense something the moment he witnessed the bickering between the two. 

And his doubts started increasing because as much as he knew him, Noah would not waste his investment or money that easily unless it would be for Brione. Noah was a very stingy and calculative person… and never wasted money on someone who was not important to him.

“You’re in love like me kid…” Craig said in a jest.

Noah’s sharp glare struck at him as he beamed, “Hey!!!”

Craig laughed at the way he responded. He used to call Noah a kid whenever he was in a problem for which he had no choice but to share with him. Just like those old days when he would get annoyed and say repetitively that he was not a kid and throw tantrums till Craig would stop calling him so.

“Alright. You may be confused right now but I’m 99.9 percent sure that you are falling in love with Luo. You see there’s nothing wrong with falling in love Noah. 

You and Luo are both single and in their right age to get married. There would be a day when you would both want to marry and settle down also, so why not listen to your heart and be happy? 

Just a piece of advice from me, that you should be true to your feelings and not indulge pride in love… Pride will bring you nowhere when it comes to love life matters…”

Noah did not respond but his face darkened. Craig could fathom that he was in a stage where he did not want to admit his feelings.

He shook his head and muttered, “So what will you do if Luo happens to not agree, huh?”

Noah’s face became gloomier. He did not like hearing such negative questions at all.

“She has to… I will make her agree…” he uttered.

Craig shook his head and stood up, “Alright then you’re old enough to know what’s best for you but still consider what I’ve said. Being honest with what you feel is the most important thing Noah. 

I know you don’t want to look weak or like a loser… But then, it’s a different thing when it comes to matters of the heart… forced feelings will never be fruitful and patience can win the heart of even the most cold person in the world!”
