The Law of Attraction

Chapter 214: Nice Guy

Days were becoming longer and passing by slowly for Liam. He kept waiting for the weekend to arrive and felt as if the number of weekdays had somehow increased.

How he suddenly started hating the weekdays merely because he could not see Lana during the entire week. All that he could do was wait for her to call him so they could do video calls and see her for that short time whenever she was free.

He raised his hand and looked at his wristwatch and sighed in annoyance. Three more hours before he could see Lana through the video call.

How he missed her in every moment of his life. His bed felt so empty and cold without her. To top it all he had shifted back into Sy mansion and there was nothing to cuddle at night at all and keep the warmth he was craving for and even the scent he was addicted to was missing from his bed. He would make sure to bring Lana to stay in his mansion and sleep with her on this bed for a few days to make it more fragrant.

He chuckled, imagining Lana scolding him and saying that she was not a pillow. Another sigh escaped his mouth. He was in that dreamy state of imagining Lana when he heard the buzzing of his intercom, disturbing his sweet dreams in between.

"Sir Attorney Luo is here." Mian informed him.

"Let her in."

"I will pack up my things tomorrow… Just wanted to inform you." Luo said with a grin as she handed her resignation letter to Liam.

Liam nodded and murmured, "Why do I sense that you look a little excited?"

Luo chuckled and said, "My new boss is funny. I mean, I really find it enjoyable to bully him and be rest assured I will not leave any chance of doing that on your behalf."

Liam shook his head and said, "I guess I need not worry about your well being then."

"By the way, I forgot to mention… I saw Gale with Noah's assistant that day when she was released out of prison." Luo recalled mentioning. She was about to settle something with the detention head officer when she saw Gale entered a car with Noah's assistant.

Liam's face darkened. He just talked to Gale, but the latter did not mention it.

"If you want, I can look into it as soon as I enter Yao legal firm. I bet Noah is targeting the real estate company of Gale's husband. The man is really cunning. He is probably luring Gale by giving her some kind of bargain." Luo expressed her opinion.

Liam nodded because it was probably the case. "Hmm, it's Gale's call but if you have spare time, then you can also check on her. You see, Gale does not have anyone in this country, so how about making new friends, Luo?"

Liam had a teasing grin before he added, "Don't tell me you will charge me also for making an additional friend in your list. Gale is a nice woman, so I think you will like her."

Luo laughed at that and said, "No worries. I have a big heart for a woman like Gale so I will check on her in case she gets involved with Yao legal firm."

"Yeah, she did not ask me for help so I think Noah has a good offer on his desk for her. She probably will be using the Yao firm in getting justice for Gilbert's death."

He knew Gale would not sit quietly and would definitely take action to seek justice, and she would make sure that Frank got the punishment by any means. He was actually waiting for her to contact him or visit his firm to ask for help in making Frank pay for his sins. But nothing came up. Now he understood why… She went to Yao law firm instead.

Meanwhile, back to Craig's condo unit, it was almost lunch when Gale finally woke up because she felt the pain in her stomach indicating that she was hungry. She stood up and grabbed some clothes in the closet to take a quick shower since she was sweating a while ago because of running.

After the shower, she immediately went out to check what she could cook in the kitchen. But she smelled something luscious and saw Craig preparing the table. She unconsciously chuckled seeing Craig wearing an apron.

It was the first time she saw a man in an apron in person. Such a good-looking man like Craig who was tall, muscular and had sharp masculine features looked a little amusing wearing the apron.

He stopped hearing a chuckling sound and turned to look at her.

Gale realized what she did was a little improper, so she said, "Sorry, just that you look a little funny."

Craig's eyebrows raised as he countered, "What's funny? Doesn't this in fact look a little sexy... a handsome hunk wearing an apron? Most of the girls usually drool over me whenever they see me in an apron."

'Wow, the guy is shameless to his core!' she mused, but deep inside she actually agreed with Craig. He indeed looked very good wearing an apron like that.

"Come and sit. I bet you're starving."

"Thank you." Gale mumbled and sat down on a chair. The dishes on the table smelled so nice, so the food probably tasted good, she assumed.

???Dig in." Craig instructed, seeing she was only staring at the dishes he prepared.

"After lunch… Let's go out and get you some clothes. I'm sure those goons would be lurking around your apartment right now, so it would be better we don't go there and instead buy you a few new?clothes and everyday essentials for the next few days."

"But my money… I don't have enough here with me." she bashfully whispered. She could not afford to buy a thing. Her cards were no longer working, and she only had a few bucks in her wallet. She hadn't checked her money in the bank as well.

"Can't we sneak into my apartment to fetch something from there instead of buying all new?" Gale suggested. She needed her bank book also to check her account.

"Eat first and let's see later what is best. If you're worried about money, it's not a problem. It's all on me…"

Gale furrowed her eyebrows and said, "No… I don't want to owe anyone…"

Craig chuckled and said, "Don't worry, you can pay me later since you will be rich as soon as Noah makes his moves to help you. By the way, I will give you the contract later so you can review it in advance while we wait for Noah."

Gale nodded and began to eat.

"Here, try this," Craig said as he put more meat on her plates. He pitied Gale and her condition. The woman had a very tough time, and he was glad Liam managed to get her out of prison and proved her innocence.

Gale on the other hand felt strange because it had been awhile since someone had been nice to her like that, Craig seemed to be a nice guy.
