“So are we good now? I’m quite fast in finalizing the doc.u.ments myself so the contract is very much valid. Unless you are planning to give me everything you got then I suggest you not argue with me anymore and let me just love you…” Lana boldly stated.

She was congratulating herself for being daring like this for the first time in her life. Maybe it was because she was too determined in getting Liam back in her life that she would definitely do whatever it takes.

It was quite effective that she wanted to kiss Keira and Luo at that moment, seeing how flabbergasted Liam was.

‘What level of shamelessness is this?’ Liam wanted to voice out. He was rendered speechless but he still maintained his stoic expression.

“Do you really think I will let you have everything that I own? No, I won’t. Do whatever you want and let’s see how long you can last, though it’s not like I’m expecting anything from you, Lana. I’m sure you will end up just giving up and leaving again…” Liam sarcastically uttered.

Lana gulped because Liam’s words were sharper than a double edge blade, cutting her right through the spot.

Lana ignored his words and put some soup in his bowl instead. She even stood up and shifted her seat beside Liam. The soup was hot so she blew it before she spooned and raised it to feed him.

“Ahhh…” she cooed, urging Liam to open his mouth.

Liam frowned and grabbed it from her. “I have my own hands so mind your own business…” he frowned with collided eyebrows.

Lana’s lips twitched and with flaring nostrils, she went back to her sit and minded her own business as he said. She wondered if Liam was just acting tough or he was like that because he was annoyed and mad at her?

“Do you want some coffee?” Lana asked when Liam was about to finish his food.

“No thank you…” Liam answered quickly.

“Do you want me?” Lana added.

“What?!” Liam exclaimed in surprise.

Lana finally could not hold it and chuckle. Disbelief was written in Liam’s face. He could not believe it was really Lana who was in front of him. He even blinked several times making sure he was not hallucinating at all. He frowned seeing Lana seemed to be enjoying herself too much with her being shameless.

‘Seriously?’ he wanted to shout but he maintained his frowning face instead.

“What’s so funny huh?” he hissed.

“Oh, nothing…” Lana answered as she stood up to make coffee for Liam since he would always drink that after breakfast.

She then put the coffee on Liam’s table.

“I said I don’t want coffee…” Liam whispered.

“I’ll drink it if you won’t,” Lana answered back with a wink.

“Did you just wink?!” Liam unconsciously blurted out.

Lana chuckled as she went back to her seat.

“Yup, I did… Like this…” Lana said as she repeated her wink at Liam.

“That’s it… I will leave now…” Liam said and immediately stood up before Lana could do more unbelievable things.

Lana followed him with the medicine and a glass of water.

“Wait… Here drink this for your headache,” she said pushing the medicine to Liam’s mouth then gave him the glass.

“Come home early. I will cook dinner…” Lana said before she tiptoed a bit and gave him a quick peck on his lips.

Liam’s lips parted as he watched Lana’s back as she hurriedly walked back to the dining area.

“She will be the death of me,” Liam muttered quietly before turning around to walk at the exit.

Lana on the other hand cupped her reddened face. Her shamelessness was finally dawning on her.

“Maybe I should tone it down a little?” she whispered, realizing she had been too much. But she liked it, especially the reddening of Liam’s face.

She sighed, looking at the coffee on the table that Liam left untouched. She grabbed the cup and drank it instead while she thought of how to spend her hours waiting for Liam.

In the meantime, she should visit the Huang mansion and see how it was well kept. Tomorrow, she would officially let his presence known at Zhao group. It was time she let her pregnant sister rest and took over the group.

******

Liam held his chest as soon as he was inside the car. His heart was slamming against his chest non-stop. He even inhaled and exhaled loudly to calm his breathing. He was too shocked with how weird Lana was acting this morning.

‘Did she intend to be like that while she stayed inside my apartment?’ he mused as he looked again at the doc.u.ments, ‘the contract’, she handed him.

He shook his head at the thought of how precise and well planned Lana’s movements were. But it was still too early…

He then chuckled, recalling how funny and cute she looked when she winked.

“She’s changing… and she seems to be enjoying it!” he whispered with mixed emotions on his face. But then his eyebrows raised as he grabbed his mobile phone to call Miley.

“That brat!” he hissed when Miley’s phone just kept on ringing and no one picked it up. Miley was absolutely guilty so as expected she would not answer him ever, knowing she would receive some bashing from him. He was too sure it was Miley who gave Lana his address and passcode.

Liam typed a message instead for Miley saying, ‘If you make any move behind my back again… You will definitely face my wrath, Miley. Don’t meddle with Lana’s affair or I will be the one who you will not see forever. Make sure you will tell that to father too. I don’t want any of you guys getting involved or helping Lana out!’

Miley on the other hand gulped when she read her brother’s message.

“He’s so worked up. I’m sure he will surrender in no time…” Miley mumbled with twitched lips. Then she grinned and dialed Lana’s number to ask how everything went so far.

She was confident that her sister-in-law would succeed in winning her brother back seeing how determined she was by living with her brother by hook or by crook.
