The Law of Attraction

At Sy Mansion.

The next morning came and Chelsy woke up after a restless night. She was wide awake, but still felt like in a dream. Yesterday, her fantasy became a reality and yet it was all so unbelievable to her.

She got up from her bed, got ready and was about to go to work when she passed by Miley.

"Good morning, ma'am…" Chelsy greeted with her sweetest smile.

Miley had a teasing smile on her face but tried her best not to say a word to make Chelsey uncomfortable. The previous day, her father tasked her to assist Chelsy in everything she needed. She was surprised first by how her father suddenly listened to her and Liam's advice that night. She did not question her father or even tease him yesterday because she did not want her father to feel shy about it.

She was too happy that finally, her father was trying his best to get a life, especially since he had started thinking of having a love life after all those years of loneliness. And again, both she and Liam did not care who that woman would be as long as she would love their father sincerely, her status wouldn't matter.

So far, Chelsy seemed to be a nice person, but Miley decided to still watch her closely for some more time. She did not want her father to experience heartache for the second time in his life. His second chance in his life should be sweeter, and such that would last a lifetime.

'Please be that woman, Chelsy…' Miley inwardly prayed.

She smiled back at Chelsy and said, "Can we talk a little Chelsy? I won't take long..."

Chelsy nodded and followed Miley into the living room. Miley signaled her to sit in front of her, so she did.

"Father told me to assist you with everything that you want to do and also arrange a place for you to relocate, so I will immediately start with it. I have an apartment near a good school where you can continue your studies and shift there starting today…" Miley started, making Chelsy's jaw drop.

"But that's too much…" Chelsy whispered.

"No, it's not. My father likes you and naturally, it's just one of his ways of wooing you, so if I were you I would just accept his generosity and repay him with sincerity and kindness. You can always not accept it or stop the support if you decide not to be with our father after some time." Miley straightforwardly continued.

"You see, we, me and Liam, are simple persons to deal with. We only want our father's happiness as we have seen him suffer and be lonely all his life, and if having you in his life can bring him happiness, then we will support you and him all the way. 

All that we want is honesty, Chelsy. Sincere feelings towards our father. He has already broken enough and we do not want that to happen again. I know everything will not go easy for you both, but I want to know if your feelings for him are strong enough to make you stay by his side all his life."

Chelsy was a little embarrassed when she heard Miley, but she understood her concern. She had seen how lonely and sad senior Sy had felt and after she came to know about the betrayal of his wife she started feeling deeper for him. 

She raised her head and looked at Miley intently and answered, "What I feel for him is genuine and from the bottom of my heart. The truth is that I liked him the moment he talked to me in the restaurant and fell in love with him that same night when he saved me from those goons. I had always adored him and wanted to wipe the sadness I saw in his eyes. My feelings for him are deep."

Chelsy sighed deeply as she continued, "I will accept everything Ram will offer. You may even think I'm brazen to accept everything, but as you said, I will repay it all with my sincerity and love towards him. I want to achieve something with his help and prove myself worthy to be with him as well. I honestly feel like this is all not true and just a dream I don't want to wake up from."

"Wake up, darling… Because this is now your reality. Now pack up your things because I will accompany you to my apartment as soon as I finish breakfast with the family. I think it's also better that you two stay apart. It will be a little awkward for a father of married children to woo you here in front of us, with our eyes on you both. You see, he may not end up giving his all in the relationship due to our presence…" Miley murmured with a grin.

Chelsy's face reddened. She liked Ram's children because they were all good people, unlike rich people she saw in dramas. Chelsy sighed… Her life would never be the same again, but one thing she knew was that she also needed to work hard to prove herself worthy of being the woman Ram chose. She felt her heart throbbing in excitement at the thought of being with Ram for real. 

She never thought that she could still have such thrilling love after thirty-five years of living. She was indeed a late bloomer…

Miley was giggling on her own as she walked towards Jorge's wing to fetch him for breakfast.

She liked how straightforward Chelsy was and that she was not having a second thought in saying what she truly felt and unhesitantly said things she really wanted to say. According to her, it was better than those prim and popper so called elegant women who had a rotten mind and evil personality deep inside, just like that 'woman' who left their father and them to fulfill her selfish desires.
