At Sy Mansion
Chelsy excitedly tried the various outfits that Ram bought for her. She would soon report to work at Sy Inc as a new staff of the sales and marketing department after their honeymoon.
"Why do I have a feeling that you're more excited to work than getting married to me?" Ram commented in jest while watching Chelsy adoringly.
Chelsy laughed and said, "How did you know?"
Ram signaled her to come to him so Chelsy did and walked to the couch where he was sitting.
"What?"
Ram pulled her to his lap and said, "I have some worries…"
"About Lana and Liam?" Chelsy asked.
"Noo… I know those two will be able to manage it. There is good news and Liam reassured me that there is nothing to worry about. It's not that I'm worrying about…"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChelsy's eyebrows creased as she asked, Huh? Then what has got your brain worrying?
"I'm worried that you will be so busy at work that you would spend very little time with me. And also, there will be a lot of single young men working there. Since you're such a beautiful woman, I'm worried that I'll have a lot of competition.." Ram commented.
Chelsy cupped his face and said, "Don't worry, I will make sure that my husband will always be my priority. And I swear that my eyes will only see your handsome face. Hey, I'm feeling hurt hearing you say that. Don't you trust me at all?"
This time it was Ram who chuckled and said, "I do trust you but I guess my inferiority complex attacks me sometimes." Chelsy pouted her lips as she mumbled, "I thought you don't have those and you don't need to worry because you're the only perfect one for me."
Chelsy was about to kiss Ram when their doorbell buzzed, it was one of the helpers informing them that dinner was ready and the rest were already waiting in the dining area.
"We will continue this later," Chelsy commented with a grin as she pulled Ram outside their bedroom.
"Where are Liam and Lana?" Senior Sy, who sat on his seat, asked Miley when he saw the seats of the couple were vacant.
Jorge was the one who answered, "Liam took Lana on a date so they won't have dinner with us,"
"It's good that brother is doing that. I'm sure sis-in-law is stressed out because of that Gracy. I still can't believe how evil she has become to orchestrate such a hideous thing. Oh, God… I'm just controlling myself but really… I'm itching to drag Gracy's name using our media connections. I wanted to humiliate her thoroughly…" Miley could not help but speak out.
She felt so bad for Lana and most especially for Aunt Ana who died in the process. Even if Gracy was not the one who did the exact deed of kidnapping Aunt Ana and Luo, she still was the mastermind behind it all which makes her a criminal as well.
"The mission was very successful so you will soon see Gracy getting arrested live on the news…" Jorge added since Liam updated him about the progress when he called informing him that he and Lana would not join them for dinner.
"Oh, that's good…" Senior Sy said.
Miley looked at Chelsy with a smile and commented, "It's all thanks to Mom Chelsy for recognizing Gracy, or else that woman would remain on the loose for her crime…"
Chelsy had a timid smile as she answered, "I think everything was bound to happen. No secrets can remain hidden forever… Maybe that's the reason why I also met Ram."
"Yeah, and one of the main reasons is for you to make him happy since our father has been living alone without a partner for too long," Miley added teasingly, making Chelsy blush.
Ram laughed as he shook his head and said with a smile, "I'm glad to be one of the main reasons. Anyway, for now, let us all keep on praying that Lana and Liam's plan succeeds and they can bring justice to what Gracy has done."
Everyone nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, after Liam and Lana ate a hearty dinner together, Liam brought her to an ice rink for ice skating.
"Are you good at it?" Lana asked him as Liam bent down to put the shoes on her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I'm good at everything," Liam boasted, making her chuckle. It was the first time she would skate with Liam, though she tried it several times with her friends so it was not something new to her.
After Liam was done putting on her shoes, Lana excitedly skated on the ice. She moved and glided gracefully and realized Liam was not beside her so she turned around to search for him…
Her jaw dropped, seeing how Liam struggled to move with both his hands on the rails of the round skating ground.
"OMG!" she gasped and quickly moved towards him.
Chuckling, she teased, "Hey, Mr. Good at everything… What are you doing?"
"Oh yeah… It's been a while since I last did this," Liam mumbled with pursed lips.
"When was the last time?" Lana asked.
"Before my mother left… Since then I never set foot on an ice skating rink. It's the last good memory I have of her before she left," Liam casually commented.
Lana grabbed his hand and said, "Hmm, hold on to me and I will teach you how to do it properly love."
She was glad Liam can now casually talk about his mother like this… He used to struggle saying the word 'mother' before. It was a good sign that he was starting to unload his resentment towards his mother.
Liam wiggled and said, "Maybe it's better if I just practice while holding the rails or both of us might fall due to my poor balance."
Lana laughed and said, "I thought you were good at everything? Don't worry. I will not let go of your hand even if it means that we both might fall down together. Trust me on this love… I will never let go…"
Liam's face flushed as he answered, "Nah, I will definitely hold your hand tightly so there will be no room for letting go…"
Lana chuckled, understanding the other meaning of Liam's words so she replied, "I will gladly accept that love…" then followed by a wink as she leaned closer to give her adorable husband a peck on his lips.
