The Law of Attraction

Chapter 200: I Love You

Lana felt the bare skin of Liam's chest and his warmth travelled throughout her body. She was about to raise her head to look at him, but Liam held her tightly on his chest as if he did not want her to go out of his arms.

"It's hard to say because no one can foretell the future Liam, but as long as you would want me with you I will stay by your side no matter what." Lana whispered. Liam was already very heavily drunk and hearing no response from him, she smiled. She could hear the heavy breathing of Liam, so she knew he had fallen asleep.

"Liam?"

"Liam?"

She smiled as she confirmed that he was sleeping already. She slipped her slender arms around his waist and hugged him tightly as well and settled her face on his chest closely, kissing him sweetly.

Realising Liam was not in his sober state, Lana started pouring her heart out in front of him, everything that she wanted to say clearly to him but didn't have enough courage to speak.

"Liam, I will always be by your side as long as you want me to. I can feel how you want to take our relationship to the next level and… even I want to start a family together with you… but… I still have a lot to fix in myself, Liam.

My few weaknesses can make life difficult for us both if not taken care of right now. I have no words to say how grateful I am that you came into my life and did not spare a single thought in being my firm support every time I needed it. I hope you can bear with me a little more…

The only promise I can make with you is that I will have no other man in my life other than you… Liam... I have never looked at any other man like how I look at you. I have adored no other man ever in my entire life like how I adore you... and I have not cared for any other man like how I care for you.

I only have you in my eyes, my thoughts and my mind. I always miss you and my heart races whenever you are near me.

I feel safe and secure in your arms, and I feel like I can overcome everything as long as you're still by my side. I had never thought that I would feel all these emotions in reality, that I often kept hearing from my friends.

Today, I honestly feel like I will go crazy just by the thought of losing you. I am terrified, Liam. But I know I have to battle with my fears, so I will try my best to do that. It may take time, but I'm confident I can do it. Can you wait for me a bit? I'm willing to give my all to you, but I have to first overcome a lot of things."

Liam smiled, hearing those words in his dream…

'She loves?me!' he inwardly screamed for several times.

"I love you Lana… So I can wait forever…" Lana heard Liam whisper in his drunken voice as he moved a little, caressing her back by his hand.

"Are you awake?" she asked, but there was no response anymore.

Lana's face reddened as her cheeks felt hot. She wondered if Liam would remember everything she just said tomorrow morning or not. She confidently said all those things with the thought that Liam was unconscious. But she was not yet prepared to say those words directly to Liam in his conscious state.

What made her happy when Liam spoke was his confession that touched her heart and her eyes felt a little wet...

She finally heard those three magical words from Liam, and she smiled gently. Having someone like Liam who loved you unconditionally was better than her ruling the world like a lonely empress. She had a feeling that she could do anything and everything holding onto his love, but she could still not let go of the fact that there was still some hesitation about herself in her head.

She carefully slipped out from Liam's embrace and tried to move him to a more comfortable position on the bed. Then she got up from the bed to have a quick shower. She was smiling on her own. She had thoroughly enjoyed the surprise party Liam threw for her. A simple gathering with all her family and friends was so much fun and heart whelming for her.

She first walked inside the bathroom and returned with a wet towel and cleaned up Liam's face and his body and then dried him up and covered him with a quilt to let her cleanliness freak husband sleep peacefully without waking up the entire night. She remembered the number of times Liam made it a point to clean her up after their bed exercises, and no amount of her protests ever worked on him. So for a change, the roles got reversed that time and Lana was more than happy to play this part for him.

She tucked Liam properly under the quilt and gave him a kiss then stood up and started walking towards the bathroom but suddenly halted when she saw all the boxes and paper bags she received as gifts from her friends. She then kept the towel on a side and decided to check on a few of the gifts.

"Hmm, they all saved their money by giving only a single gift to me since it's my birthday and my graduation day together... stingy..." she mumbled in a jest then she smiled as she opened a beautiful red box and picked up and held the necklace Liam gave her with a complete set of earrings and bracelet.

Her smile reached her ears seeing the beautiful diamond studded jewellery Liam had chosen himself for her. Happiness filled her heart.

She then gave a look at other gifts also and she spotted an unusual box in between the gifts on the center table. She creased her forehead and her beautiful smile was nowhere to be seen after she saw that box. Lana walked at the center table where the helpers had kept all the gifts people bought for her.

She grabbed the black box and checked it. Her eyebrows collided seeing there was no name card on it. She opened it but immediately her grip on the box loosened as her hands trembled seeing what was there inside, causing it to fall on the ground. Her face paled as she looked at it. She could feel her body was trembling and her knees weakening that she had to hold onto the headrest of the couch for support.

"No… It can't be..." she whispered as she held her chest and started gasping for air.
