Liam, Miley, and their father flew back to country D the same day, together with Marlyn and a few nurses to assist and take care of her. They sent her directly to the best facility in the Capital City which Liam already arranged.

Miley exhaled loudly as soon as they were out of the facility.

“I feel so lighthearted,” she commented with a smile. Her father put his arm on her shoulders and said, “Because you and Liam did well. Forgiving her will give you peace of mind…”

“I’m going home, how about you two?” Ram asked.

“Home too… I feel so tired after the trip. We should all go straight to our home and rest. Besides, the rest of our family are waiting for us…” Miley commented, looking at Liam who only nodded. It was a weekday and he would often go straight to the office when he returned from his previous trips abroad but today was different because Lana was at home waiting for him.

It was indeed nice to have that peace. He himself felt lighthearted as well. Liam had a bright smile as he entered the car with Miley and their father. They all wanted to go home quickly knowing their loved ones were there waiting for them.

“Oh, we almost forgot!” Miley shouted inside the car.

“The victory party of the Chan’s is tonight right?” Miley asked.

Keira’s father, Troy Chan, was officially appointed as the President of country D. The citizens were overwhelmed with happiness. They rejoiced at the good result of the election where Troy was ahead in numbers with a huge difference against Bill Grey who was disqualified as soon as he received his guilty verdict in the trial.

“Yeah. I think you’re the only one who almost forgot,” Liam commented with a smirk.

“It’s such a relief that our country will be governed by a just and reliable man like him,” Ram commented.

“Yes, indeed.” Liam seconded.

“By the way, will your firm and Noah’s firm really merge?” Miley asked, recalling the matter.

“Yup. Noah wants to let go of the law firm. He said he can no longer take care of it as well as he used to since he lost a very reliable and key person, Assistant Craig. Assistant Craig resigned to quit the job and live in the province along with his wife Gale and his mother for good. Luo will be the Vice-chairman so the Yu will still hold a fair share in the company.” Liam explained.

“Such a twist of fate… Noah married Luo who is Lana’s sister. I heard he initially took over the Yao firm because of you. And now these two firms will merge and everything ends well.” commented in awe.

Meanwhile, at Yu building, inside Noah’s office, Luo watched her husband’s attractive face as he went over some doc.u.ments.

“Did you talk to Craig?” Luo asked. Ever since Craig left, Noah’s work seemed to be doubled. This was one of the reasons he suggested the merger of Yao and Sy Law firm. He was confident that Liam would be able to manage both firms well.

“Yeah… his mother is still sick and there’s no one to take care of her so he’s not yet sure if he can come back soon. His mother prefers to live in the province than the city…” Noah replied with a sigh.

He had already assigned a new assistant but no one could compare to how Craig worked. He was not just assisting him but Craig was also helping him run a lot of things flawlessly.

Craig left this company a few months ago but Noah would often check on him and tried to convince him to come back with Gale and his mother as well. Unfortunately, his mother did not want to stay in the city and insisted on staying in the province until her last breath.

“Hmm, how about letting me help you, baby?” Luo suggested.

She was once again answered with her husband’s firm voice saying “No!”. He did not want her to experience the stress he was experiencing, saying it would not be good for both her and the baby.

“But you are working too hard lately,” Luo complained with pouty lips. Noah raised his head and looked at his wife who sat on the couch staring at him. A beautiful smile crept on his face as he replied, “It’s okay. I don’t feel tired at all especially whenever I look at you like this…”

Luo’s cheeks reddened. Wrinkling her nose she babbled, “Mr. Yu is being cheesy with me right now.”

Noah chuckled and then looked at the clock.

“We should get ready and go out soon. Tonight is the victory party,” Luo reminded and Noah nodded.

Evening at Chan’s Ancestral Mansion

Everyone who was close and helped the Chan’s before gathered to celebrate Troy Chan’s victory on winning the elections. The Sy family was one of them.

Lana and Liam along with their family gathered at one round table, having a hearty dinner. The program was very cheerful with Keira hosting the party and making it entertaining with her unbeatable humor together with her husband Zach.

They were having a good family conversation when Miley suddenly became nauseous.

“What’s wrong?” Jorge asked, worried, seeing Miley covered her mouth. Miley did not answer but stood up and rushed to the nearest restroom.

“I will check up on her,” Lana commented and quickly walked towards the restroom Miley entered.

There she saw Miley puking in the sink.

“I must have eaten something bad… but it’s the first time I’m experiencing this kind of upset stomach,” Miley stuttered.

Lana asked the waiter for water and handed it to Miley as soon as she recovered.

“You barely touch your food Miley so I don’t think it’s an upset stomach. Are your periods delayed?” Lana asked.

Miley’s eyes widened, realizing what was Lana trying to say.

“Do you think I’m pregnant? But there are 3 more days before I get my period,” Miley answered, though deep inside she was already feeling excited.

“How about we try doing the test early?” Lana commented.

“Can you please keep this between us? I don’t want to inform Jorge and the rest until I confirm everything in the hospital” Miley asked and Lana nodded with a smile. She was hoping Miley to be pregnant just like her as that would definitely be another good news for the family.
