Chapter 220: Only Afraid Of One Person
After satisfying their passionate desire and making love a few times, the couple cuddled each other on the bed. Lana circled her arm around his waist and pasted her body on his completely. She soon dozed off and Liam couldn't sleep but simply kept staring at Lana.
Almost all the time that Lana slept, he did not sleep and kept looking at her lovely face, kissing her every now and then. He was extremely happy with her confession of love towards him and now he wanted to celebrate his happiness.
He called Andrew to come at the review centre and drive him from here as he knew after the sleepless night he might not be able to drive very well.. The sun was about to rise and he must leave soon before sunrise to avoid being seen by anyone. She was in deep sleep, wearing her own nightclothes. He was specially mesmerized by the beautiful smile carved on her lips as she slept.
"She looks so stunning even while sleeping. I will leave now, love, and see you soon," he murmured as he leaned down to give her lips a gentle kiss. He was addicted to her closeness and didn't know how he would pass the remaining days without her alone now. He reluctantly got up from the bed and tidied himself before tucking her under the quilt properly and leaving the room.
Andrew was already outside of the review center when Liam went out.
"Good morning Andrew," Liam greeted with a bright smile and Andrew felt he was going blind because of how bright he looked at that moment.
"Good morning Sir," Andrew politely answered his boss, who seemed to be in an excellent mood, as he opened the car door for him.
As soon as Liam was inside, he said, "Today is a very important day and a lucky day for you, Andrew."
"Sir?" Andrew muttered, a bit confused. Liam chuckled and only said, "I will sleep during the ride so drive slowly and be careful. Wake me up when we arrive at Sy Building."
"Noted boss," Andrew answered, then his mobile phone beeped. His eyes widened as he read the notification he automatically got from the bank.
'It's not yet Christmas so why is he receiving his bonus this early?'
"Boss…" he whispered as he gulped, wondering if it was mistakenly transferred.
"Go start the engine and let's go, Andrew. I told you I'm in a good mood today. Later you go on a shopping trip and use that… Go on a date…" Liam commented before comfortably inclined his chair and closed his eyes.
"Thank you, Boss!" Andrew gladly exclaimed and energetically started his engine. It shocked him to see his boss come out in his sleepwear, but then something very good must have happened after seeing his wife.
Liam fell in a deep slumber while they were on the road. They arrived at the office after more than an hour and, as instructed, Andrew gently woke up Liam.
Liam continued his sleep inside his private room that day and instructed Jorge to wake him up after two more hours.
After two hours, Liam woke up and got out of the bed. He took a quick bath. He went out of his private room and asked for Jorge and his security team for the report he wanted.
His face darkened as he barked, "He would not be able to get any information with no connections!"
"We are still looking into it, Sir," the head of his security team informed him.
"Yes, and do it fast. I want to know who the person helping him out is!" Liam exclaimed. He gave a few more instructions about giving tight security, most especially to Lana and her mother.
"Will you tell auntie about this?" Jorge asked when they were alone in Liam's office.
Liam heaved a deep sigh and said, "I will ask Lana first what she has to say in this. We will talk about it and I will let her decide on this matter. What matters the most right now is that we must find out who her father's connections are. Seeing our security team is having a problem in finding this out and gathering the data related to his identity, then it only means there is someone powerful behind Lana's father for him to be able to trace Lana's whereabouts."
Lana's mother had told them she had made sure that Lana's biological father would not find out about Lana, but he still managed to find her.
Liam looked at his wristwatch and stood up. Jorge followed him and asked, "Where are we going?"
With a dark face, Liam answered, "Let's go and once visit that monster!"
Jorge scratched his head while Liam's mind was busy planning ways to ensure that Lana would not see even the shadow of that monster.
"Do you think it's a good idea showing yourself to him?" Jorge asked. For some reason, he felt that it was not a good idea to go and see Lana's father.
"Why not Jorge? I'm somehow sure that he knows about me as well…" Liam grunted. Someone powerful was feeding Lana's father with information about his daughter's whereabouts for sure.
"But still we never know, so maybe it's better not to introduce yourself as Lana's husband first…"
"Jorge, I know that…" Liam cut him off and Jorge?pursed his lips hearing his reply. How could he forget that he was Liam Sy? The shrewd and cunning famous lawyer of the country Who was he giving advice to? This person could be termed as the trickiest lawyer in the world.
But still it was not bad to remind him, so he added, "Well… I'm just reminding you."
Liam turned and smiled at him saying, "I know Jorge and thank you for reminding me."
The prison was situated out of the Capital City, and it took them more than two hours of travel to reach there.
Liam and Jorge both sat on the backseat.
"How is it staying alone in your house?" Liam asked while he scanned the internet for good places to go for a honeymoon with Lana after their wedding. He was planning a wedding as soon as Lana cleared her license exam, and he was hopeful that she would not deny this right to his love now.
Jorge sighed and said, "I don't think I can endure even for a month alone in there, Liam, so please.... Can you just let me get married and let's stop that childish condition of yours?"
"Okay." Liam answered plainly.
Jorge's ears and eyes both blinked, and he hastily turned to stare at Liam in disbelief.
"Really?" he yelled.
"Ask once more, and I might change my mind…" Liam commented with a serious face, eyes still glued on the screen of his tab.
Jorge was so glad that he hugged Liam right then and there. "Thank you so much bro… I love you bro! You are an amazing friend... If you want, we can have a double wedding ceremony!"
Liam pushed him and said, "Why not? You better get started and convince Miley so she can also convince Lana for that."
Liam's face then crumpled as he fixed his suite and mumbled, "Geez, you're too touchy and cringey…"
"Women love this kind of clingy guys, you know…" Jorge scoffed.
Liam's eyebrows arched and said, "I know.... But men hate it if the person clinging to them is another guy… So don't be too touchy with me. You're giving me goosebumps."
"Don't tell me you ungrateful brat… Remember how you always snuggled with me whenever we went camping and the lights were out?" Jorge teased because Liam was afraid of ghosts like Miley.
"We are no longer kids now, Jorge. At this point, I'm only afraid of one person in my life... my wife…" Liam uttered.
