The Law of Attraction

Chapter 512: Sweet Nothings

The next morning, Liam dropped off Lana to work as usual but before Lana stepped out of the car, Liam stopped her and mumbled with pouty lips, "You're forgetting something…"

He assumed that Lana's mind was too occupied because she would meet Gracy today. But then he wanted to lighten her mood so he intentionally reminded her about the thing she would usually do before getting out of the car.

Lana chuckled because she realized that she did forget something since her thought was about the plan for today's lunch, upon meeting Gracy. She leaned forward to give him a kiss which she did passionately and deeply, with her tongue probing deeper in his mouth, making her husband growl in pleasure.

"I need to leave for now baby. I will continue this later," Lana said with a wink and kissed Liam once more but it was only a peck on his lips before going out. Liam smiled as he watched her walk inside the entrance of the building before instructing Andrew to drive to his office.

He licked his lips because Lana's sweet taste still lingered on them. It would be a tiring day for Lana so he was thinking of surprising her by preparing things that would help her relax and ease her tension later after meeting Gracy.

Everything was already on standby for Lana and Gracy's meet-up at lunch.?Lana was the one who formulated everything including the back-up plans as Drey along with other secret operatives would be helping her with their intended goal. They could not keep Gracy in jail for long unlike Bill since they did not have enough evidence against Gracy.

And it was frustrating to them all because Gracy could be the mastermind of it all since Lana or Liam did not have any direct connection to Bill Grey at all for him to act so impudently against Lana or him. Well, Jorge had a blood connection but he did not act against Jorge since Bill was not even bothered with Jorge's existence.

They were all hoping the plan would work out well and would help them to solidify the evidence against Gracy.

Liam sighed. The two ladies would meet at one of the most famous restaurants. Lana had made a reservation for a private room where the team had already planted bugs and hidden cameras before even Lana called Gracy on the telephone to ask for a meetup.

Good thing Gracy agreed, because if she didn't then they had a Plan B which was their father asking her to meet him.?Liam offered himself as bait but Lana refused, saying he was never included as a choice.

Liam unconsciously chuckled inside the car recalling Lana's answer when he asked her why.

'I don't want her to even catch a glimpse of you!! I do not want her to be satisfied that she could at least see you! No way!'

He was always amused to see such possessiveness from his wife because it was a very rare sight. The old Lana would often choose to deny or say it in a vague way where she could still keep her pride intact in a cute way as well.

Lana spent her time in the office doing nothing but conditioning herself to keep her calm before lunchtime. She heaved a long frustrated sigh, composing herself before she left her office to meet Gracy.

They already expected that Gracy would be released since there was not enough evidence against her. As expected, she just feigned ignorance and claimed that her only mistake was falling in love with Bill Grey.

She denied knowing anything saying all she ever did was spend money and enjoy the pampering of Bill Grey not even bothering to know how and from where he got all his riches.

Only Bill Grey's testimony would bring Gracy down but they doubted he would do that to her after Bill and Gracy both pushed for his innocence about all the accusations against him.

They would need to stage a play between lovers if their plan today failed.

Lana wore a bug on her body ever since they left Sy mansion and there was also a hidden camera on the earrings she wore. That was why her hair was tightly tied up into a pony so that they were able to record Gracy clearly.

She only hopes to trap Gracy with everything they prepared. They only needed a solid confession from that woman to support the evidence and claims that they had at the moment because Lana wanted to make sure that Gracy would not be able to escape her doom.

Time seemed to move very slowly that day so Lana decided to kill her time by calling her husband.

"I'm bored…" Lana commented with a sigh as she looked at the wall clock. It was only nine in the morning.

Liam chuckled. He actually tried to convince Lana to just come with him to his office but the latter refused, saying she did not want to bother him knowing he would have an important meeting.

Yes, he did have one important meeting in the morning at 9:30 am but he intended to end it within an hour or less and he would still be able to spend time with her before she met Gracy.

"How about you go to this place and wait for me in the private room? I will be done at ten and will keep you well entertained for an hour? The restaurant you chose is near my office anyway…" Liam murmured.

Lana pursed her lips. That meeting was too important for Liam to end it quickly because of her.

"Nah… I'll pass. Let's just talk while you're still available. I just miss you…" Lana whispered.

Drey, who was present in the van on stand-by near the restaurant to check the connection of the mic and cameras, shook his head hearing the couple's conversation.

He typed a text message to Lana and complained,

[Hey don't forget that your mic is ON right now and we can all hear your sweet nothings! Goodness since when did you become so vocal and cheesy like that?!]

Lana's mobile phone vibrated in her ear so she put Liam on the loudspeaker and then opened up and read Drey's message.

She laughed and commented, "Turn it off Drey. I'm not on-site yet for you guys to record. Geez, but you can listen to it all you want though…"

"What's going on?" Liam asked but then he could already tell so he added, "Are they eavesdropping on our conversation right now?"

Drey rolled his eyes and signaled his team to cut off the line for now after making sure that both audio and visuals were loud and clear.

Lana laughed and said, "Nah, he turned it off for sure now, or else he will end up puking, hearing my sweet nothings to you…"

A simple conversation with her husband such as this was enough to make her feel at ease, taking away all her worries.
