The Law of Attraction

The dinner table went silent for a while and Liam thanked his stars that his father had finally stopped nagging him about Lana. Lana, this name came as a hurricane in his life and somehow Liam felt that he was getting sucked in by this hurricane. He again shook his head to ward off thoughts of her that clung on him even when he was dining with his family.

After a few moments of silence while they were in the middle of their dinner, Miley suddenly recalled asking, "Liam… Do you know Noah Yu?"

Liam paused for a while and gave a little thought, but the name did not ring a bell in his mind at all, so Liam shook his head.

"Why?" Liam asked.

"He just gained total control of the Lao's firm, didn't you know? He had been up to it for a few weeks and finally did it." Miley informed.

She watched the news on one of the business news channels just that morning. The man, Noah Yu, was making an enormous name not only because of his achievements in business but also because he was one of the most eligible bachelors of the city that every woman drooled over.

"Should I really know about it, Miley?" Liam asked.

"Well, I think you should, and not only that, you also need to watch out for his actions later. He seems to be a capable man and in his interview he said that the Lao Law Firm will reach its highest growth above or else under his hands." Miley commented.

"He sounds really arrogant and full of pride to me." Senior Sy interrupted.

"It's because he's a capable man, dad. And very handsome too, just like big bro. He's single too…" Miley praised him with fluttering lashes.

"How about considering him for your future husband Miley?" A sudden spark glinted in Senior Sy's eyes.

Miley looked at Jorge when she heard this question, who was still quiet and acting as if he was too busy eating. She saw no reaction coming from Jorge and this nonchalant attitude irked her up.

"Hmmm, that's a marvellous idea, dad. Instead of becoming big bro's enemy and competitor, it will be wise to include that man in our family… I bet he's more confident and is courageous enough to gamble with a beauty and brain like me." Miley thundered that made Jorge choke and spit out his food.

Miley grabbed a glass of water and handed it to Jorge. "Tsk. tsk. You need not choke like this Jorge if you're against whatever I'm saying. You know that just one word from you and it will always be the end of the game, then and there."

It was nothing unusual for Liam and Senior Sy, and they were rather used to Miley pestering Jorge like that. Jorge finally looked at Miley and with a twitched mouth, said, "Stop spewing nonsense if you don't want me to choke to death, please?"

...

The dinner soon ended. Miley and Jorge kept bantering for a while and Liam was happy to be out of focus due to them.

Liam directly went to his room after dinner. He had a quick cleanup and got ready to go to bed. He lied down and tried to sleep but very soon opened his eyes and stared at his ceiling for a very long time, where he could see a clear vision of Lana's lips.

"Darn!" he cursed and moved on his bed sideways to erase the crazy thoughts. He even rolled with his face on his bed and was unable to let go of the thoughts of her lips. He covered his head with a pillow.

After a few dozen more hours of struggling and restlessly moving left and right, Liam finally slipped in deep slumber.

…

Liam was early in the office analyzing one of the witness statements when he saw Lana entered his office. Mouth agape, he stared at Lana who wore a one shoulder side spliced dress that was too short in his eyes. One wrong move, and he bet he could almost see her underwear.

"What the hell are you wearing?!" he yelled as he stood up to remove his coat and used it to cover Lana but before he could take a step towards her, Lana threw him back on his seat and he jolted from head to toe.

Liam frowned, extremely shocked at how preposterous her actions were. He blinked, seeing the devious grin carving on Lana's beautiful smile.

"What are you doing?" he whispered in his hoarse voice as Lana moved closer and sat on his lap sliding her hands to loop around his neck.

"What else? I'm fulfilling your wildest dreams. Isn't this what you always wanted?" Lana seductively whispered in his ear, sending shivers down Liam's spine.

He was frozen and sat like a statue on his seat when he felt Lana's fingers caressing each part of his face softly. He could only close his eyes and gulp, feeling the hot sensation run through his blood.

Brief moans escaped his mouth when Lana's fingers went down, trailing his jawline down to his neck as she gently started unbuttoning his shirt.

He opened his eyes because he could no longer bear the heat that was consuming his body with her nearness and overwhelming scent. He would go mad soon, so he stopped her hands. Liam met Lana's eyes and shifted his gaze a little below. His eyes almost bore down on her luscious lips that Lana slightly wet with her tongue.

'Oh crap!' Liam cursed while he gently slid his hand from Lana's back up to her nape to pull her for a passionate kiss. Those lips… The torturing lips… He wanted to have a taste of its sweetness and feel its softness once more.

"Kiss me…" he moaned several times as he closed his eyes and pulled Lana. He tried to kiss her, but she was struggling, pushing him hard. He stretched his second hand also to control her struggling body and pull her in his embrace.

She was struggling hard and Liam was hell bent now on kissing her, but she suddenly hit him hard on his shoulders and Liam heard someone curse him...

"Liam!!! What the f*uck dude! Wake up and let me go! You gross!" Liam heard a familiar voice shouting at him, hitting at his shoulders.

He opened his eyes and almost puked seeing Jorge's face closed to his. One little push and their mouths would touch for a kiss. Liam abruptly pushed Jorge away at that instant.

"What the hell, dude! I will sue you for harassment! I can't believe it you're dreaming such dirty things and even trying to kiss me! Man, did you think I'm Lana?" Jorge hissed while he fixed his clothes that got ruined from struggling in Liam's clutches.

"Father asked me to check on you. Everyone is ready for breakfast, yet you were not to be seen anywhere. And here you are dreaming about kissing a girl and laying your hands on me. Now get up and get ready, you will be late, so hurry…" Jorge hissed before running out of Liam's room. His body hairs were still up because of Liam's gruesome hallucination.

Liam massaged his nape and cursed as he went directly to take a shower. He let the cold water drip down his muscular body to subside the heat in his body. He cursed several times with irritation. He had slept so late already and was even dreaming of an absurd scene.

"You're crazy, Liam! Straighten up will you!" he grunted to himself.
