The Law of Attraction

Lana packed the lunch and made some more meal packets after she cooked and immediately drove to Liam's office with everything. She was smiling as she walked and greeted everyone back who greeted her as well.

She was aware that those gossip mongers in Liam's company would talk bad about her behind her back despite the poker smiles they donned on their faces. Not that she cared about any of it at all since her sole focus was Liam and to show him how determined and sincere she was about coming back to him and staying without leaving ever again.

She made a mistake then, in a fit of emotions, and she learned greatly from it. And she would dare not repeat the same mistake again. She knew better now and she was really hoping it was still not too late for her to rectify her mistakes and get back what she lost… especially Liam, her husband, who loved her deeply and unconditionally.

She was smiling brightly as she stepped foot on Liam's floor.

"Good morning Mian. Is Liam inside?" Lana asked.

When Mian nodded, Lana handed a paper bag to Mian and Dona saying, "I cooked that. Enjoy it. I'll go inside…"

"Oh, thank you, Miss Lana. Yes please go ahead…" Mian answered with a wide smile and Lana entered Liam's office.

Liam was on his couch, massaging his nape when she stepped inside.

"Mian, tell Jorge that I want to rest a little. He can have lunch first." Liam commented, presuming it was Mian who entered and would ask him about lunch.

Lana put the lunchbox on the table and sat beside Liam.

"What's wrong? Is your head aching?" she worriedly asked and dashed towards him.

Liam heard her voice and snapped open his eyes. He saw Lana intently staring at him.

"Shall I massage your head?" Lana asked but she did not wait for Liam to answer and moved to the back of the couch while she gently let Liam's head on the headrest of the couch and trailed her fingers in his hair sending a sense of peace in his heart. He couldn't help but look at her with eyes full of wonder.

"Close your eyes…" she instructed and Liam obeyed. She then gently started massaging his temples, forehead then head.

His eyes were closed and Lana was again mesmerized by the close-up view of his handsome face from that angle. She could not help but bent her head and reached closer to give him a kiss on his lips.

Liam felt the softness of her lips and opened his eyes to meet the view of her slender neck. He suddenly started feeling hot and never thought that a kiss in that kind of position would feel so good and taste sweet?

His hand unconsciously held Lana's nape as he pulled her nearer for a deeper kiss, sucking each other's upper and lower lips teasingly, with their tongues probing in each other's inside until they were out of breath.

"Let's eat first and I'll continue massaging you later so you will feel better…" Lana breathed in his lips as she first broke from the kiss. Liam again felt the softness of her lips as she pressed it once more on him before she raised her head and walked around the couch to sit beside him.

He wanted to protest since he wanted a little more of the kiss but he controlled himself. Besides, he was indeed hungry already, hearing the grumbling of his own stomach. He was extremely pleased as he silently watched Lana prepare the food at the center table.

"Let's just eat here instead of the pantry. It's only the two of us anyway. This way I can feed you myself…" Lana mumbled to him followed by a wink.

Lana even pressed the intercom on the table and instructed Mian not to let anyone inside since Liam would have his lunch.

"Noted, Miss Lana," Mian answered.

Liam was still silent, feeling pleased, as he observed Lana's movements. She held a bowl of meal in her hands to feed him with her own hands.

"It's chicken pastel. I added more green vegetables to make it nutritious for you," Lana explained as she spooned in it and raised it to feed Liam.

"Give me that. I can eat on my own," He answered.

"Alright," Lana quickly answered and handed it to him that instant.

'What?' Liam silently complained because he was expecting Lana would insist on feeding him at least.

Lana grabbed her food and started eating but halted and turned to Liam since she felt him staring at her.

"What? Come on eat and don't just stare at me," Lana commented with a smile.

'Feed me…' Liam thought to answer.

Lana seemed to understand his look so she scooped a spoonful from her bowl and raised it to Liam's mouth and said, "here, start eating… Do you have any important meeting or appointment after lunch?"

Liam opened his mouth to eat and then shook his head as an answer to her question.

"Good. Rest a bit more. I will give you a massage after lunch," Lana nonchalantly said as she continued to eat and then feed Liam alternately.

She assumed Liam was not feeling well so Lana felt really worried.

"Do you have a problem in the office? You look exhausted," Lana asked.

Liam heaved a sigh. He did not have any problem in the office but he was in a dilemma because of Lana.

"Are you already getting tired of me? With my attitude towards you or my lack of interest in you?" Liam suddenly whispered.

"No!" Lana quickly answered though she felt confused since she was asking Liam about his work then suddenly he asked something like that.

"Are you feeling burdened with my presence? Tell me what you want Liam and I can do all of it. You can ask me anything and I will do anything for you, except for one thing," Lana whispered.

"And what is that one thing you can't do for me?" Liam asked with raised eyebrows.

"Leave you… I will never leave you again, so please don't ask that. Don't ask me to get out of your life because I can't do that Liam," Lana answered in her firm voice.

She heard Liam chuckled then he murmured wryly, "What happened for you to talk such, that you're saying that now when before you easily left me and went away, huh? It's funny hearing you say that when you've easily done that before. Leaving me was very easy for you to do so don't say it now like that…"
