Chapter 273 - Win-Win Situation (2/2)

”Are you stalking me? How come you're so updated with my whereabouts and you even got to know about all the cases I am handling without even hearing a thing from me, huh?” she confronted him with a grin.

She was touched to find out that even though Liam was so far. He was making sure he knew everything about her and he was keeping her safe no matter what. It did not bother her at all that she was actually being stalked by him in order for him to remain at peace.

”Well, that's all I can do for now since I can't be with you to celebrate your first victory, although I'm dying already to be there with you… Love… You do know I love you too much, right?” She heard Liam said in a low voice.

She felt something weird in his voice, though.

”Is there any problem, Liam? Are you alright there?” she asked as her heartbeat suddenly raced. Then she heard him chuckle on the other line and responded, ”Yeah, everything is wonderful here, love. Just that I want you to know that no matter what happens… no matter what you hear and read, please know that I love you very much. Maybe I just miss you so much so I blabbered too much.”

Lana pouted her lips and mumbled, ”Stop saying things like that. You're making me worry… Do you want me to fly there this instant?”

”No way, love! Ryu and Shawn will kill me!” Liam said in a jest.

”Alright. Don't get fired up, I was just joking. Just call me whenever you miss me and if I can't answer, then I will absolutely return your call as soon as I can. I love you and always take care there.”

Soon the call ended. Liam went back into the private room where he was meeting a client.

”Sorry I took a little too long,” Liam apologized with a half smile.

”It's okay attorney Sy. Going back to business… I see you are working hard in helping your cousins out. I believe you want to get Shawn out of the mud completely, right? I actually have a better offer in hand for you… A totally win-win situation for everyone.”

”I'm all ears then,” Liam plainly answered as he met the eyes of the grinning man before him.

Liam was expecting that man to contact him, but not this soon. The man before him was very dangerous and one wrong move he made he knew his life would be in danger since they were the type of people who could kill that instant if they wanted.

But then he would be useful for them so he would not be scratched, and they would not dare touch even a single hair of him.

”You just talked to your partner, right? I heard she's a good lawyer as well. A newbie, but she's progressing well in making a name for herself in such a short time… Winning a difficult case in just a month of starting her practice… Very impressive…”

Liam's jaw tightened hearing that, but he controlled his emotion and commented, ”It's not actually fun to have a competitive partner around, like her. I'm thinking of replacing her with someone more meek and tame. I hate women whom I can't reign over.”

The old man laughed and added, ”Well… I know a lot about your preference.”

Liam only answered with a faint smile.
