The Law of Attraction Chapter 94

At Sy Building.

Lana felt bad and wanted to check on Daryl, so she dialed his number.

“Are you alright, hope Liam said nothing to you?” Lana asked.

She heard Daryl chuckle and said, “So far I’m still fine, Lana. So don’t worry too much. See, I’m still breathing.”

Lana heaved a long sigh and glanced at Liam’s direction. He was busy working with his documents. 

“Alright, that’s good to hear then. Sorry again, Darryl,” Lana apologized once more before ending the call.

She looked at Liam and bit her lips. She felt that she was at a disadvantage after signing that document. 

‘I’ve been scammed by that crafty wolf,’ Lana mused and gave Liam another glance. Then her intercom buzzed, and she heard Liam say, “Come here.”

Lana stood up and walked out from her room to approach Liam, who was on his majestic seat.

“Yes?” Lana asked.

“Do you need anything from me?” Liam asked back.

“Huh? No!” Lana murmured.

“Do you want to say something Lana?” Liam asked now looking at her directly.

“No?” Lana answered with a creased forehead, confused about what was going on with Liam.

“Well, I noticed you are glancing at me again and again, so I thought that maybe you have something that you want to say, but then I guess I might be looking extremely handsome today as well.” Liam said, scratching his chin with one of his fingers and with a grin.

Lana’s eyes widened in horror. “Wow, your level of shamelessness is drastically improving,” Lana, without her knowing, voiced out.

“Improvement is a good thing, don’t you think? By the way, father wants you to go to the golf tournament and he will send a formal invitation to your mother too. Sorry about this, but my father insisted and I couldn’t even contradict him…” Liam said while massaging his nape.

Lana’s eyebrows arched but then her face softened realizing it was an invitation from Senior Sy so she answered, “Alright, I’ll tell my mom about it but I think a meeting of those two will make things complicated for us. I mean, we’re just pretending… You know the seniors… They will surely talk more about our relationship.”

Liam’s jaw tightened and became a bit gloomy but he quickly softened his face and said, “Don’t worry, the two of them can always talk things but in the end it will be still us who will decide right?”

Lana wanted to beg to disagree on that because her mother was too precious to her, and she was willing to do everything that would please her as long as she had the capacity to do so.

“You worry too much. But then I will try to convince my father later about it if you’re not comfortable Lana.” Liam muttered.

Lana suddenly felt guilty, so she said, “That’s okay. They won’t probably talk about it on their first meeting…”

“Yeah, maybe no, maybe yes…” Liam nonchalantly commented.

That time, Jorge suddenly barged inside Liam��s office.

“Gracy is on her way here…” Jorge informed and then smiled at Lana. 

“You can now go back to your room, Lana.” Liam said, dismissing Lana, who pursed her lips while on her way to her room.

Liam then turned to Jorge and said, “When did you schedule the board meeting?”

“Next week. I think we should introduce Gracy as the new Vice Chairman as early as possible.” Jorge suggested and Liam nodded in agreement.

“What’s your plan now?” Jorge asked while he sat on Liam’s couch, looking at Lana’s room, who had closed her blinds.

Liam stood up to sit opposite Jorge while he asked, “What do you mean?”

“Gracy is going to stay at Sy Mansion now, Liam. I’m sure she has other purposes. I think she wants to pursue you.” Jorge bluntly stated.

“I guess I need Lana to be around me even more now,” Liam suddenly murmured with a glint of spark all over his face as an idea came to mind.

“You’re lucky Jorge for mentioning this thing about Gracy or else I was about to snap your neck for blabbing many nonsense things to Lana like me having a childhood sweetheart.” Liam uttered with a serious face.

Jorge gulped, realizing he just managed to save his ass from Liam’s wrath. “I guess Gracy doesn’t have a special spot now in your heart? I thought you still liked her.” Jorge wryly mumbled.

“Jorge, that’s teenage years… I adore Gracy, but those feelings were not deep.” Liam murmured.

“Like your feelings with Gale?” Jorge asked.

“Yeah…” Liam honestly answered because his feelings with Gale were deep.

“And Lana?” Jorge was curious.

He saw Liam looked at Lana’s direction and murmured, “I love her.”

Jorge definitely did not expect those words. Well, Liam surely liked Lana, but he was utterly surprised with the use of the word love by him for Lana. Jorge was too surprised, and he only stared at Liam, mouth agape, unable to believe him.

“So you are planning to use Lana as a shield for Gracy?” Jorge reconfirmed. He was aware Liam was trying his best to do a lot of things in making sure Lana would stay by his side.

“Do you need help like me fueling some details to Lana?” Jorge offered.

“Not really. I can manage this Jorge.” Liam replied.

Jorge’s face twitched and said, “How come your love life is often complicated?!”

“You’re lucky yours is not, and yet you are making it complicated,” Liam countered. Jorge scratched his head and stood up, excusing himself from Liam before he got bombarded.

Liam heaved a long-frustrated sigh when Jorge left and once again looked at Lana’s room. He wanted to know everything about Lana’s past so he could at least understand how he could approach her. Right now, he shouldn’t make a move in telling her how he really felt.

He tilted his head and realised that Gracy had come at the right moment back to settle down, giving him enough alibi to be with Lana often. 

‘Maybe I should ask her to let me stay at her place?’ Liam thought with a grin and immediately started forming an excellent speech on how he should deliver it all to Lana.

He stood up and knocked on Lana’s door after. He opened the transparent door, seeing Lana signaled him to come inside.

“Yes?” Lana asked.

“I need to use my first wish…” Liam, without batting an eye, said.
