The Law of Attraction

Chapter 406: I’m Back

At Country D, Airport.

"How does it feel to be back in your own country huh?" Keira commented with a grin.

"Ahhhhh…" Kyle exclaimed.

"It's nice to be back!" he answered instead.

Keira crumpled her face. She turned to him and said, "Are you Lana's personal assistant? Why are you tagging along like one?!"

Lana laughed and said, "Hey, be gentle with Kyle. I owe him a lot."

"Whatever… But somehow this man looks very familiar, I can't just bring myself to remember how." Keira grunted with suspicion. She first met Kyle at the airport and Lana let him tag along with her in their private plane.

He was too thoughtful towards Lana, not that she did not like someone caring for her friend but somehow she could feel that the man was in love with her.

'He could be a hindrance…' Keira mused because she did not want any hindrance in Lana and Liam's reconciliation.

They were walking towards the car when Keira suddenly stopped and said, "Hey don't tell me you are going to go with us? Don't you have somewhere else to go?"

"I do… I just have to make sure Lana gets back home safely." Kyle answered meekly. Lana's friend obviously did not like him.

"Kyle it's okay. Go home now. I'm with Keira." Lana answered with a smile and thanked the latter before getting inside the car with Keira.

"I don't like him!" Keira blurted out as soon as they were inside the car.

"Why? He's nice…" Lana mumbled.

"He likes you…?he's probably in love with you already." Keira casually commented, making Lana chuckle. Keira lifted up her eyebrows in annoyance, followed by the shaking of her head and clicking of her tongue.

"Goodness. Your EQQ hasn't improved at all my dear. So tell me… What will be your plan when you'll approach Liam?"

Lana gulped and whispered, "Be shameless?!"

Keira dropped her shoulders and scolded, "There you go again with that hesitation. Haven't I trained you enough? Be shameless and bold!"

Lana pursed her lips. Keira stayed with her for a few days, bugging her to come back while coaching her on how to win back Liam. She was indeed decidedly determined in winning Liam back and atone for her weaknesses after she heard how Liam suffered during the time she was gone.

But somehow she was still nervous. It was not in her character… To act and do things how Keira taught her to do.

"I'm so annoyed with that hesitating expression Lana. You will forever regret it if you do not gain enough courage. Fight for your love! Even if Liam kicks you out… Beg him to take you back…Cry until your eyes bleed with tears. If he acts remorseful… Show him love and kindness. Have patience with him…

Like you, Liam has traumatic memories too… The trauma his mother left him with and?then you were not any less than his mother who abandoned him without a word."

Lana bit her lips as they started to tremble. She was aware of why Keira was being redundant. She was reminding her over and over about how weak she had become.

"I have faith in you, Lana. Like when we were kids… I know you will always come back stronger and bolder because you learn from your mistakes. So you can surely do it. I trust you." Keira continued to encourage her.

Lana held her friend's hand and whispered, "Thank you."

Then she looked out the window at the familiar establishments they passed while driving. Even before Keira arrived to fetch her, Lana was thinking of going back.

Maybe that was why she felt ditched by Liam? She somehow hoped that Liam would still wait for her to come back to her senses. Keira said that the engagement ceremony was a circulating rumor and was not yet confirmed by Liam's side, so it could also be a false rumor since Mr. Chua is eyeing Sy Law Firm to be his business partner.

She would find out the truth soon for sure. Keira dropped her off at her apartment since Lana wanted to stay there for a while. She smiled seeing that it was well kept. Keira told her that she maintained it and that she had already asked May to fill her kitchen with groceries and fresh meat, vegetables, and fruits.

Her other friends would visit her the next day since she would rest first after a long flight back home. But instead of resting, Lana went out and drove to her mother's grave.

Her eyebrows furrowed, seeing there was a bouquet of fresh flowers on her mother's gravestone.

Then she smiled and murmured, "I guess someone just visited you, mom. I bet you're very disappointed that I was away for a year. But I'm back now and I will not make the same mistake again, I will not show such cowardice again. I'm sorry mom that the pain overwhelmed me, I should have known better…"

She bit her lower lip as tears welled up in her eyes.

"I'm back mom and I promise to treasure the life you saved for me. I will not let him go this time… I??m really sorry mom that it took me this long to have the courage and to get back on my feet again. I'm really sorry mom…" Lana softly whispered as she wiped her tears from her eyes.

"Lana? Is that really you?"

Lana turned around as soon as she heard that familiar voice. Luo looked at her with rounded and surprised eyes and before Lana could utter a word, Luo pounced at her and hugged her tightly.

She was crying hard and was hitting Lana's back as she vented out, "What took you so long! Why are you back just now! How dare you leave us all like that!"

Lana smiled and stroked Luo's back as she whispered, "Are you happy to see me, or do you only want to scold me nonstop?"

"Both! You heartless ruthless selfish brat! Don't you know how many of us suffered from your absence?" Luo scolded her some more, still sobbing hard. She would regularly visit mom Ana's grave because she was immensely grateful for how well the latter treated her sister and how she sacrificed herself to save Lana's husband.

And it was a miracle that she could see her sister right at that moment.

"I'm not done with you, I will pull all your hair out after this!" Luo sniffed as she continued to cry.

Lana chuckled and whispered, "I'm really sorry… And I missed you too, a lot…"
