The Law of Attraction
294 A Scandal
"Are you alright?" Ryu asked Liam.
Liam simply nodded gloomily, without a word from his mouth.
"Are you sure you don't want to drop by and see Lana while we are here? I can arrange a secret meeting between you both if you want..." Ryu commented. They were back in their country for just a short time and they would soon fly back to country V.
Liam exasperated and shook his head and said, "No, it's best if I don't even try to see her. Yun is all over the city and is tailing my every move since I will be representing him at the trial. One wrong move from us and our efforts will all be in vain. He wants to be sure that I can be trusted.
Moreover, I don't want to compromise Lana's safety. He can use her as a bait for me later on if he found out how much Lana means to me. It's best that he thinks Lana is just one of the pastime women I'm not serious with. He knows about my reputation of not being close to any woman, so he will definitely watch Lana out..."
Ryu nodded and very well understood his cousin's sentiments, but he felt terrible seeing the brokenhearted state of Liam. He patted his shoulder and said, "Soon this will pass and I'm sure Lana will understand everything when time comes, especially if me and Shawn help in explaining."
Liam gave him a faint smile and said, "Yeah, I know that's why I can endure all this because I trust Lana's judgement. She knows me very well. She will be pissed off at first, but I'm sure she will put the puzzles together soon and understand everything, even if I don't explain it to her."
Oh God, but he was missing his wife so much that controlling himself to run to her right at that moment was testing his endurance capacity and was literally killing him.'
Just to ensure his wife's safety, he was willing to do everything.
They say marriage life was not a bed of roses. Time would make them go through difficulties and to face trials such as this, and Liam could just hope that it would not take too long.
His mobile phone rang and his face became dim seeing it was Yun. He literally cursed him under his breath before answering his call.
"I heard you're back here at country D with your cousins… how about you join me for lunch and let's discuss more about the matters at hand. You will accompany me back to country V later anyway…" Yun said on the other line.
Liam clenched his jaw and replied, "Sure, no problem. Just tell me the place and I will be there."
"Good, then… Karen will also join us for lunch. I think she likes you…"
After a little more talking, he finally ended the call.
"What did he say?"
Liam helplessly looked at Ryu and said, "that filthy woman is going to be with him. Oh God, do I have to endure her touch again?"
Soon he met Yun at the restaurant he advised and as usual Karen greeted him with excitement and even hugged Liam intimately.
He couldn't even complain of being uncomfortable with the public display of affection because Yun already had investigated him and even had pictures with him in an intimate pose with Lana.
Liam cursed on how twisted his situation had become at this point. He only hoped that he would not run into Lana at this place.
He sat on the available chair alongside Karen and was about to eat lunch with the two when he was shocked by the presence of the most unexpected person at the entrance door of the restaurant. He saw Lana, who was entering through the entrance door with someone.
Lana was meeting with a client who insisted that they had lunch outside to talk about the case she was consulting her with. But then she suddenly froze…
'He's back?' she muttered as their eyes met.
It was the man she was longing to see for so long. She had thought of many scenarios of when they would meet, but did not expect to see him randomly like that. Her husband Liam was actually sitting right there.
It also shocked Liam to see Lana there, but he quickly composed himself, noticing Yun had never left his gaze from his face and was probably studying his emotional changes seeing Lana there.
"Isn't she your girlfriend? Last time I heard from you about her was that you broke up with her?" Yun asked. He wanted to see how Liam would react and how important that woman named Lana was to him.
The client with Lana was a paid woman so she could bring Lana to the same restaurant. Well, it was nothing much to him since he could always use Lana or Liam's family to get a hold of him, but he wanted to play a little with Liam and he wanted to see how everything would turn out with Liam and the woman he was linked with. Plus, he also wanted to make sure Liam was not lying to him over simple matters such as this.
"Well, there's no formal break up yet since I haven't talked to her for weeks now. I'm avoiding her and if she's smart and still has pride… Then she must get a grip of the situation. You see, I hate breaking up beautiful women's hearts, but If I'm no longer attractive or don't find their companions interesting anymore, then I just ignore them." Liam explained without any emotion.
Her client pulled Lana on the table near Liam. Her heart was pounding so hard seeing her husband whom she loved. Liam was still ignoring her completely.
'What's going on?' she wanted to scream, but she controlled herself. She could clearly see from her seat how the woman sitting was flirting with him and Liam was allowing it. Lana even ignored the fact that Liam was back without her knowing but flirting with another woman before her?!
She could not help and looked at her client and said, "Will you please excuse me for a while?"
That instant she stood up and walked towards Liam.
"I see you're back?" Lana, whose eyes were only at Liam, scorned. She did not bother to look at who was with Liam, but she only focussed on Liam.
Her eyes were already welling as she continued, "What's going on? I heard nothing from you for so many days… Why Liam?"
"Don't make a scandal here and let's talk outside…" Liam plainly said as he pulled Lana out of the restaurant.
Liam simply nodded gloomily, without a word from his mouth.
"Are you sure you don't want to drop by and see Lana while we are here? I can arrange a secret meeting between you both if you want..." Ryu commented. They were back in their country for just a short time and they would soon fly back to country V.
