The Law of Attraction

At Yu's Residence.

"Why did he even bother to recommend that Sarah to you?! No way, I don't like her. The fact that she bullied my sister is not something that I will easily forget…" Luo burst when Noah mentioned about him hiring Sarah.

"She's a really good lawyer. One of the best actually, so Liam wanted me to employ her instead of other firms. Liam said she's harmless," Noah added. He explained to her how Sarah accidentally found Lana's personal records that were all over Liam's table when she entered his office without permission.

"Well, she could be harmless and I understand that she was a new employee back then. Her seeing Lana's file by accident is forgivable but she dared to take advantage of it and tried to mess with my sister using her nasty tongue, so don't you dare hire her!" Luo warned him, squinting her eyes in his direction.

Noah chuckled and opened his arms wide, as he saw his wife standing up and walking towards him from her vanity mirror.

"Hmph!" Luo scoffed as she laid down next to Noah on their bed, completely ignoring his open arms.

"Alright baby… I will not hire her and will talk to Liam about it," Noah uttered in defeat.

But then a sudden idea came to Luo and she snapped, "Wait!!… Hire her."

Noah creased his forehead and looked at her. He shook his head seeing the mischievous smile creeping on her beautiful face. He knew that she was planning something cunning after seeing her playful smile and he started to pity Sarah.

"I will keep my enemy closer… This will be fun. Let me teach her such a good lesson that she will always remember to use that tongue of hers more carefully," Luo beamed with a smirk. She would not let go of anyone who dared bully her younger sister. She would definitely teach that woman a good lesson.

She looked at Noah and said, "I will stay in your office and start to work only on simple cases. Oh wait, I want to see all the cases so that I can choose a few from it. Assign that woman to assist me…"

Noah scratched his head as he whined, "Alright baby. Can you give me a hug now?"

Luo chuckled then pounced on her husband. "I'm so excited!" Luo whispered.

"For what? For the initiation of your plan on Sarah?" Noah asked with a grin.

"Nah, it won't just end with initiation if she does not learn anything. Don't worry I won't bully her too much. I will give her just the right kind of medicine so that she will fully learn a lesson," Luo added.

"I'm okay with it as long as you won't stress yourself in the process as it will affect our baby," Noah murmured with a sly smile. He loved how cute Luo looked whenever she was jealous of their baby as he was so protective about the child.

With pouty lips, Luo complained, "There you are again huh. You're obviously enjoying this…"

Noah burst in a fit of laughter, hugging her closely. He tilted his head and kissed her nose while he whispered, "You're so cute… And very hot. You do know I will not let you go tonight right?"

Luo's cheeks reddened as she felt Noah's hands on her legs caressing upward, roaming in between her thighs.

Noah's flight to country C was tomorrow. He would be leaving with Brione to see their dying father. She wished to go with them but it would not be advisable for her to travel during her pregnancy.

Sulking, Luo whispered, "I will miss you."

"I'll be back soon. I book a return flight on the same day so you'll see me the next day…" Noah said with a smile.

Luo smiled as well but ended up gasping when she felt Noah's hand caress one of her b.r.e.a.s.ts.

Luo pulled his neck instantly to give him a passionate and deep kiss. Noah being away from her even for a day was too long for her.

"Let's tire each other the whole night…" Luo seductively whispered with her naughty smile.

At Sy Mansion

Everyone in the house was still up outside the veranda, sharing a drink to celebrate Liam and Lana's return to the Sy mansion that day.

"Oh, it feels so good to finally be able to have a casual drink and chat like this again with everyone. The more the merrier…" Miley whispered as she watched Liam and their father play board games while Jorge casually interrupted the two with his funny comments.

Miley looked at Lana and sighed. Lana was smiling but she could feel that her sister-in-law was bothered about Gracy. Well, most of them were, but there was nothing they could do for now except to wait for the military's signal and movement.

They needed to act like they did not know a thing about Gracy in case their paths crossed in the future, which she hoped would never happen.

Miley touched Lana's hand and smiled at her.

"Everything will be fine sis. Please remain strong and trust him. He will definitely make sure everyone who harmed Auntie will pay," she said, pointing her lips in Liam's direction.

Chelsy, who was sitting on Lana's other side, held her other hand and uttered, "I'm really sorry that I gave you this burden."

Lana shook her head and with a smile replied, "I'm grateful that this happened. That you recognize Gracy. I honestly believe that someone powerful is behind that monster but I was so consumed by pain after losing my mother, that I never even bothered to dig deeper, thinking everything was that monster's doing. If Gracy is proved to be behind it helping Bill… Oh, God..."

Lana's voice quivered. The thoughts of her mother's untimely death and her sister's suffering was making her heart tremble.

Miley smiled and quickly changed the topic. Her father and Liam asked for her cooperation to keep Lana busy and distracted so that she doesn't have time to spiral into her deep thoughts and blame herself.

"Oh, I scheduled our trip for next week. I chose a place that both us and the guys will enjoy. We can all participate in the baby-making competition!! We can bet on who will get pregnant first!" Miley beamed with an excited tone.

"I'll pass… We will wait for a year or more before trying. Ram and I prefer enjoying each other's company for now…" Chelsy informed which caught Miley off-guard. She did not have Mom Chelsy in her mind when she mentioned the competition but her revelation was a great relief because she did not mind if Lana got pregnant ahead of her.
