The Law of Attraction Chapter 343

At Sy Mansion.

Senior Sy massaged his head. He was inside his room, resting for a while after waking up from his sleep. He was sober now, after drinking what butler Dan gave him, before he fell asleep. 

Then he recalled what happened when he was drinking that, he unconsciously touched his lips as the scene of Chelsy kissing him flashed before his eyes.

He was still conscious and in his right mind when Chelsy kissed him. But inspite of being conscious, he just froze at that moment, it felt like his whole body lost all its strength, could not move even a single inch. When butler Dan arrived, he was still in that dazed state of mind.

It was truly unexpected. He wondered what Chelsy was thinking for her to kiss him out of nowhere, so suddenly like that. He was not mad at her for that impulsive move but it made him rather curious.

It had been a while since he last experienced something like that… Felt how great a kiss could be.

His face reddened as he shook his head to erase all such thoughts from his head. 

“I’m too old for this,” he hissed alone, to himself.

He immediately stood up and fixed himself. He took a quick bath to freshen up and make sure he would not reek of alcohol by the time his children arrived.

It was almost dinner time when he finally went out and headed towards the living area to watch some news. He could not help but think of Chelsy and that kiss every now and then. He could not hide the fact that it affected him.

‘Maybe I only feel this way because I’ve not been intimate with anyone for too long?’ He justified to himself, silently because of how intensely his body reacted whenever that kiss would come back to his mind. It was truly uncomfortable and unacceptable to him.

“Hello dad,” Miley, who arrived first greeted him enthusiastically at the living area.

“How’s work?” He asked with a smile after his daughter gave him a quick kiss on the cheek and a hug. 

“Good.” Miley said as she joined him on the couch to watch the news.

“Breaking news: There was a riot and a fire at the Head Prison an hour ago that killed a lot of inmates who were inside. The police are still identifying the dead bodies. Meanwhile, we will show on our screen the list of those who are greatly injured. As of now, the investigation is still ongoing… We will immediately update you on the status of this incident in our 9 oclock news bulletin. Thank you.”

Both Miley and Senior Sy looked at each other. Both had a worried look on their faces because there was only one thing that came to their mind… Lana.

“I will call bro, now.” Miley whispered as she immediately grabbed her mobile phone.

Liam was in a meeting when he received the same report from his security team, the one that he particularly assigned to monitor any movements from Lana’s father inside the prison because he was up for parole soon.

“Make sure you find the status and confirm it numerous times…” Liam instructed on the other line.

Then his mobile phone rang and he answered Miley to assure her that he already knew about all this and had the situation in hand under control. He heaved a long sigh inside the car. He was in the back seat and was now on his way to pick up Lana from her office.

He rushed inside and saw her paralegal at the receiving area. He looked familiar. His forehead creased and he suddenly asked, “Have we met before?”

He had read his profile and the report on him before, when he found out Lana chose him among the applicants and since then he thought the man looked familiar but he no longer pondered where he happened to see him because he became too busy with his cousin’s case at country V.

The man slightly bowed as a sign of respect and greeted him. “I’m not sure Sir but I know you since you are a popular lawyer.” 

Liam narrowed his eyes as he tried to think more about where he saw him because he was definitely sure he met him before seeing him in person now.

His facial muscle flinched as he finally recalled it.

“The elevator at the hotel…” he mentioned the name of the hotel and date. It was when he brought Lana there to rejuvenate and relax after her licensure exam.

Kyle nodded with a smile and said, “Oh yes sir. I was around that area at that time.”

Liam nodded and commented with a blank face, “small world,” before leaving Kyle and walking directly into Lana’s office.

“Yeah, indeed. It’s such a small world…” Kyle whispered back as he followed Liam.

As soon as Liam was inside he asked, “Did you see the news?”

Lana gave him a half smile and stood on her chair to give him a hug.

“Yeah… I saw it… You smell nice…” Lana commented in a relaxed tone.

Then she added, “Drey called me. He’s already checking if that man is among those who got injured or dead. I know it’s wrong of me to think like this but I prefer him dead.”

“Oh God I should not think like this…” Lana repently whispered. She could not help it, but she tried to clear her thoughts and not think about it. The man was still her father and she should not think ill about him to such an extent,t so she inwardly scolded herself.

Liam sighed and gently stroked her hair and gave her a kiss on her forehead.

“We have to wait because it will take time to check everybody. Many died and I heard it’s hard to recognize them because of the burns. The police are doing DNA tests now… Let’s wait for any further news. For now, let’s go home and have dinner with our family.” Liam whispered.

His wife was pregnant and the last thing he wanted was for her to get stressed.

Lana gently pushed away him and winked at him before she said, “Don’t worry about me. I’m taking care of my emotions well especially now, that it’s not all about me but the life inside my belly, our baby.”

Liam chuckled and pinched her nose as he whispered, “good mom.”
