The Law of Attraction

Chapter 431: A Shortcut

"How about you accompany me to the garden while these three talk about matters with the company…" Luo commented to Liam who agreed and followed Luo instead, while Lana, Noah, and Kyle went to the living room to talk about company matters.

"I'm really glad to see you two together…" Luo said with a smile as soon as she sat on a chair with Liam in their garden outside.

Liam did not comment, so Luo continued, "I know you must have been mad with my sister. Lana is actually very different from me. I am vocal and she is not.

We talked that day when she came back. I'm sure that until now she hasn't told you any reason at all why she left. She probably does not know how to start…"

"Did she tell you why?" Liam whispered and Luo nodded.

"I want to accept her back, Luo, but I'm really scared that she would again leave if something like that comes up…" Liam opened up.

"I know… I honestly understand both of you. You do what you must do, Liam, for you to feel secure… But please, I will just ask you for one thing. Don't be too harsh on my sister.

She had struggled a lot ever since she was a small child. Growing up she used strength in fighting with her emotional traumas and then the incident with mom Ana and your baby.

She started feeling that everything was her fault at that time. She told me that she started having nightmares and whenever she looked at you, the flashback of mom Ana being hit by all those bullets would start playing in her head.

She could not confide in you as well because she did not want you to feel guilty, because she knew it was not your fault at all. We both know she had had enough traumas in her life and she also had always had issues with her own demons.

She told me that she had tried hard to overcome her emotional mind a lot, but it was not healthy for both of you if she stayed by your side and made you both suffer immensely." Luo explained.

Luo heard Liam sigh. She stared at him with an understanding gaze.

"I know that it must have been hard for her, but she could at least try to share it all with me, and with that, we could have tried to probably work things out in a different way. If she needed space, I would have happily given it to her, but not like how she handled things. She totally shut herself out from us, Luo. And that too for one whole year without any news of her at all?

And she fled off to another country, changed her name even. We kept searching for her every possible place we could, and worst of all we did not even know if she was still breathing or not!" Liam retorted, pain evident in his voice and face.

This time it was Luo who let out a deep sigh.

"I guess my sister deserves a real hard time then…" she mumbled with pouty lips.

Liam gave her a reassuring smile and said in a jest, "Don't worry, I will not make her suffer for one year as she let me."

"What?! You mean it will take you that long?!" Luo beamed.

"I'm not sure, Luo. I need to see if she's really more committed and devoted this time… that she will no longer leave like she did and be alone to handle everything on her own, without thinking of people who live a dead life everyday when she leaves…" Liam said with a serious note and a serious face as well.

Luo gulped. She hoped her sister's patience would be enough. But in the current state, there would be only one solution for Lana to let Liam take her back easily… a short cut… and that would be for her to bear Liam's child…

Luo suddenly could not wait to tell Lana about her brilliant idea. Her sister must move fast with lightning speed in seducing Liam, so they could make a baby and melt Liam's heart.

Meanwhile, the turnover went well between Noah and Kyle. Lana was also glad that Liam was behaving well throughout.

"What's your plan next weekend? How about we go for a tennis match? Let's see who wins this time." Kyle asked Lana, as they walked outside to join Luo and Liam in the garden.

Noah was just listening quietly.

"I can't, Kyle. We should limit going out together, unless for business purposes. You know I'm wooing Liam back and he doesn't like seeing me with another man."

Kyle's face crumpled as he mumbled, "But I'm not just another man…"

Lana laughed and said, "Yeah, you're not. But in his eyes, you're another man that he's jealous of…"

Kyle was about to complain, but Lana already ran out first, leaving him and Noah behind.

"Jealous of me? Is he that insecure?!" Kyle grunted with furrowed eyebrows.

"Liam can read you well, Kyle. Unlike Lana… he has both a high IQ and a high EQ… Lana has low EQ, so she can't notice you…" Noah blurted with a chuckle.

Kyle pursed his lips and heaved a long deep sigh. Was he so obvious that even Noah could notice? And why couldn't Lana notice it too?

Liam and Lana soon left and returned to Liam's apartment directly

"Thank you…" Lana commented as they walked inside Liam's apartment.

"For what?" Liam asked with knitted brows.

"For behaving well with Kyle," Lana said with a grin. She was pleased that Liam did not create any fuss with Kyle.

"I told you I'm not jealous…" Liam plainly answered and walked straight into his room.

Lana twitched her mouth and followed Liam to go to her own room as well.

She was already inside her room when she received a message from Luo.

[Are you still with Liam? I mean is he near you?]

Lana replied her with,

[No… Why?]

At that instant, her mobile phone rang. Seeing it was Luo, Lana answered quickly.

"What is it?!" Lana enquired at the other end of the line.

"I said… You have to seduce Liam fast and give him a baby. That way everything will be easier and faster." Luo repeated.

Lana sighed and with narrowed eyes muttered, "What did the two of you talk about?"

Luo then told Lana about her conversation with Liam. She also told Lana that she would need more patience because it might take a little longer for Liam to fully accept her like before.

"I understand. Don't worry about me, Luo, and focus on your pregnancy…" Lana said with a smile. The two talked a little more before ending the call.

She agreed with Luo… She too wanted to have a child with Liam. She wanted to have their baby… and this time she promised she would not let anything happen to him.

Lana then wondered how she would execute her next move.
