The Law of Attraction

Chapter 422: Where Are You?

Meanwhile, Lana was with Kyle for lunch when Miley called her and invited her for the small dinner they planned to host at Sy mansion for Chelsy.

Kyle stared at him, curious about why she had that bright smile on her face after the conversation ended.

"I guess you're in a great mood," Kyle commented with a smile.

"Yeah, it was my sister-in-law. Chelsy graduated today and they are going to celebrate the occasion later. She said father wants to invite me…" Lana responded with a smile.

Kyle's face soured as he exclaimed, "Sister-in-law? Didn't you two get divorced already?"

"I'm wooing them back. I want to return to them, Kyle. I want to return to Liam," Lana opened up. Kyle gulped as he forced a smile on his face.

"Whatever makes you happy Lana. You know I will always have your back, right?" Kyle breathed.

Lana smiled and said, "That's why you're the best person out there to handle the legal affairs for my company. Think about my offer carefully."

Kyle looked at the envelope that Lana handed to him and heaved a long sigh. He would love to stay with Lana but he was hesitating. Being close to her would only kill him more. He needed to distance himself from her from his point on, after knowing how determined she was in getting back what she had lost when she left.

'Damn,' he inwardly cursed because, in the end, he knew he would still end up following Lana.

"I will report for work as early as tomorrow…" Kyle answered with a wink.

Lana chuckled and said, "I'm really grateful. I want someone I trust to handle the legal matters, Kyle… Let's finish our food now. I will have to buy something for Chelsy afterward."

Kyle smiled and said, "Let me accompany you, Boss… You know how good I am with choosing gifts."

Lana chuckled and nodded.

Lana let Kyle choose a good gift that she could buy for Chelsy since she was not good with presents. Kyle pulled her inside an exclusive cosmetics boutique.

"These are your company's brands. How about gifting her some cosmetics." Kyle suggested.

Lana shook her head and said, "How come I never thought of that?"

Kyle only shrugged his shoulders and teased, "because your thoughts always wander to him."

Lana laughed and hit Kyle's shoulders.

Outside the transparent glass store, Liam happened to pass by after meeting with a client at a restaurant near the same mall.

"That's Lana right?" Daryl commented, so Liam looked in the direction where Daryl's eyes were fixated. It was indeed Lana and she was not alone. She was apparently exchanging sweet laughs with a man.

"Who is she with?" Daryl whispered with knitted brows while looking at the man who was with Lana.

"That's Kyle, he used to be her paralegal…" Liam answered with gritted teeth.

"Oh, I see. No wonder they are close…" Daryl nonchalantly added.

"Let's go…" Liam snapped with a grim expression. Daryl scratched his head and followed Liam with a nervous gulp. He suddenly regretted mentioning Lana as soon as his eyes accidentally saw her beautiful smile inside that boutique. Lana looked even more gorgeous with her long hair. She looked a lot like Luo at a first glance, because of the long hair.

'Luo…' Daryl heaved a sigh. He was happy for Luo, who was now anticipating her first child and enjoying her pregnancy but somehow deep inside he still felt brokenhearted whenever he thought of her. His only consolation was knowing that Luo was very happy right now, this thought comforted him.

Meanwhile, Liam's nostrils were flaring. He did not like the sight of Lana smiling brightly like that with another man, it was making his blood boil with annoyance.

'Isn't she supposed to be at work? Why is she here roaming around with another man? Is that how she plans to show her sincerity?!' he irritably mused. He wanted to turn around and pull Lana, drag her out of that place, away from that bastard Kyle but he knew that he was not in the position to do so.

'Not in the position?' he silently countered before he abruptly stopped walking.

"Liam?" Daryl asked, wondering why he suddenly stopped.

"Are you alright?" Daryl asked next, staring at Liam's conflicted expressions.

"Darn!" Liam hissed before he turned around and walked back.

Daryl rolled his eyes and followed him. He knew where Liam was headed… Back to the boutique they just passed.

Liam entered the boutique and looked around but neither Lana nor Kyle were there.

Daryl approached one of the saleswomen and asked about Lana and Kyle.

"They left already sir, in the elevator, straight to the basement parking…" the saleswoman answered.

Liam grabbed his mobile phone and was about to dial Lana's number but then hesitated.

"Call her." Daryl encouraged. He could tell what Liam was contemplating. Liam heaved a long deep frustrated sigh and with dropped shoulders said, "Let's go Daryl."

Daryl shook his head while he followed Liam, who walked out of the boutique. His friend obviously still loved Lana. But he could understand why Liam would hesitate with his actions.

He tried to lighten the atmosphere by saying, "If I get to secure back all our clients then I believe I will surpass everyone else for the COO position, right?"

"Technically, yes you will," Liam answered plainly. His mind was still wondering whether or not to interrogate Lana later.

"Then wait till I bring back our lost clients… I will definitely make it happen…" Daryl confidently mumbled.

Inside the car, Liam just blankly stared at his mobile phone while he mused, 'Should I call her or not? Should I or should I not?'

"Sir are we going straight to Sy mansion? Senior Sy asked me to remind you about the dinner for Miss Chelsy." Andrew asked as he drove the car out of the parking lot.

Liam looked at his wristwatch and said, "Yeah drive straight to Sy mansion, Andrew…" Then he looked back and typed a message on his mobile phone.

[Where are you?]

He was about to click the send button but ended up deleting the message instead and annoyingly put the mobile phone back in his pocket.
