Liam kept looking at the wall clock while Jorge was briefing him about the conditions on which some of their lawyers were poached by the Yao law firm.

Jorge noticed Liam's attention was only at the wall clock and not on what he was briefing him about. Seeing Liam totally distracted, Jorge's forehead creased, and he snapped his fingers at Liam.

"Hey are you even listening to what I am telling you?" Jorge sniveled.

"Yeah, I am. It's almost dinnertime, Jorge, let's continue with this discussion tomorrow. For the meantime, make sure that Yao law firm should not be able to afford our best ones, okay?" Liam commented and immediately stood up, picked his coat and went out, leaving Jorge alone his mouth agape.

Jorge shook his head because he knew Liam was in a hurry to have dinner with Lana and his mother-in-law.

"Such a doting husband and a caring son-in-law, huh," Jorge grumbled and picked up his phone to check Miley's post in her social media as she had always been active on her social media accounts .

He could track Miley's usual movements here since she loved to post almost everything there. But his eyes widened with what he saw, and in a flash he rushed out of Liam's office getting furious by Miley's recent post that said she was on her way for another thrilling date.

…I hope this time I get to meet the man who can finally become my boyfriend…

"What the heck, how can she even think of someone else as her boyfriend!" Jorge breathed while he ran towards the place where Miley was supposed to meet her date.

Meanwhile, Liam instructed Andrew to stop by a fine dining restaurant so he could buy delicious dinner and they could eat together in the hospital.

As usual, Liam was in his best mood when Andrew dropped him off to the hospital. He was even silently humming as he strode with hurried long steps through the hallway towards his mother-in-law's room.

"Dinner for the beautiful ladies…" he beamed as soon as he was inside his mother-in-law's room.

Mrs. Huang chuckled at the energetic greeting while Lana arched a brow and commented, "You sound too excited."

"I am…" Liam straightforwardly said in a flirtatious manner and gave a sweet smile to Lana, then turned to prepare the dishes he bought on the table.

"Mom, your dietician has approved light soup only, so I brought clear chicken soup for you, just try this one out, you will love it for sure," Liam commented while he picked the bowl and a soup spoon. Then he walked towards Mrs. Huang and put it on the bed table for her to enjoy.

Mrs. Huang could not help but adore Liam more and more with each passing day. She could not understand what could make a woman abandon such a lovable child and go. How she detested Liam's mother for her actions, who according to Lana left him for the sake of another man. How could a mother be that selfish and forget her own children for her selfish happiness?

Just this morning she asked Lana if she knew anything about Liam's mother because she was really curious and Lana told her everything truthfully.

"That's so thoughtful of you, son. Once I recover, I will make sure to cook a lot of healthy meals for you and Lana," Mrs. Huang commented. She felt Liam was somewhere longing for a mother's love that he missed while growing up and Mrs. Huang wanted to give that simple, yet most precious thing to Liam, just like how she gave the same warmth to her Lana.

While they were all enjoying their dinner, Dr. Wang arrived for her evening usual round with some nurses to check her progress in healing. Lana was eating heartily and seeing Dr. Wang, she was about to stand up to talk to her when Liam said, "Finish your food, Lana. I'll talk to Dr. Wang and get the details."

Lana sat down with her mouth agape. 'For real?!' she mused while watching Liam act like a real son-in-law towards her mother.

He talked to Dr. Wang, and he even asked a lot of questions about her surgery as well as healing progress, more than she could think of about her mother's condition. He was even concerned about the biopsy report of her samples that were taken from the part of organs removed.

"Mom, remember the things you should avoid. This will enhance your recovery process and I wish you could give all these directions as a summary to us, so we can make sure we won't miss a thing while taking care of her food," Liam suggested, and the doctor chuckled.

"Alright… Mrs. Huang, this comes as a little relief to me seeing that you have a strict son-in-law here to look after you. Lucky you… Son-in-laws who care too much for in-laws like their own is hard to find nowadays." Dr. Wang said in a jest.

Lana sighed, hearing them exchanging praises for him. Liam was able to get her mother's trust and love, and she was conflicted whether to feel happy about it or not. Soon Dr. Wang finished with the checkup and left. Liam nonchalantly went back to his seat to continue eating with her.

"Here, eat some more fish," Liam commented and picked a piece of fish from the serving container and put it on Lana's plate.

Lana's eyes rounded on his gestures. She glared at him and mumbled, "I can get it on my own, you know."

"Oh, Dr. Wang is right. I'm so lucky to have such a good son-in-law. Oh, my dear Lana, I'm really so satisfied and happy for you, I believe you have done the best thing in your life by picking up Liam as your husband." Mrs. Huang complimented her daughter in a teasing tone, whose face was turning red hearing such words.

"Mom, stop teasing her. Look how my 'love' is blushing," Liam seconded. That made Mrs. Huang laugh.

"Stop calling me…" Lana grunted and could not finish the sentence.

"What? My 'love'? But you're the first one who called me that, remember?" Liam continued to tease Lana, enjoying Lana's murderous glare, and her gorgeous pink cheeks turning into a crimson colour.

"Oh, tell me all about it, son, you have made me really curious." Mrs. Huang excitedly asked.

"Don't you dare!" Lana threatened Liam. He only answered her with shrugged shoulders and began narrating the incident with Rio Tang, where Lana first called him 'love' on the mobile phone to piss her off.

If eyes could kill, Liam would already be lying dead on the floor, but he did not mind the furious Lana, seeing how his mother-in-law was enjoying it.

"Oh… you both are so adorable and sweet together. At one time I was only greedy for Lana to get married and today when I see you both so much in love and caring for each other, I can't help but be more greedy now. I wish to see my grandchildren very soon, and I hope you both will not make me wait for too long for this happiness!" Mrs. Huang excitedly spoke.

Lana, who was drinking water at that moment, spat out the water in her mouth onto Liam's face accidentally.

"Oh, my… I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it… I didn't do it intentionally. Sorry Liam," Lana murmured in terror and immediately grabbed a tissue and wiped Liam's face with it to clean the water she spat on him.

"Don't worry mom. Lana and I will be quick in fulfilling all your happiness," Liam, with his mischievous grin while staring at Lana, replied.

Lana, who was gently wiping Liam's face first, suddenly put on more pressure on it, making Liam cringe in pain.

'Such a wild tigress… Huh!'
