Chapter 285 - A Happy Ending (1/2)
Kyle greeted Lana with a wide smile as soon as he saw her entering the office.
”Morning boss. That bastard will now surely rot in jail. There's no escape for him after all the evidence we gathered. Plus, some of his victims are now willing to cooperate and be witnesses seeing him behind bars at the detention center.”
Lana only nodded and walked directly into her office then sat down lazily on her chair.
Kyle followed her. He creased his forehead and asked, ”what's wrong? You look like you are in some kind of problem… We have succeeded in our mission, boss, but how come you don't look happy?”
Lana gave him a half smile and replied, ”yeah I am happy that we succeeded, but my husband did not like how I risked my safety to achieve it..”
Kyle sat in front of her and said, ”If I was your husband I would feel the same way boss. Didn't I also suggest the same to you? We could have someone else to do all such risky things instead of you.”
Kyle pointed out and Lana sighed. Yes Kyle did warn her several times, but her stubbornness always won over everything.
Lana heaved another long deep sigh and said, ”I was feeling very bad for Mica and I just couldn't compromise the mission and entrust it with anyone else.”
Mica was about to take her own life that day if she did not happen to pass by her office and see her motto signage. She promised the girl she would give her justice she deserved and in return she should live her life and move forward.
”I'll go get you breakfast boss since it looks like you haven't had any yet. You will feel better when you get a taste of the sandwich stall nearby. They just opened a few days ago and my friend said it tastes really good,” Kyle said as he stood up to leave her.
Lana smiled at him and said, ”Thanks Kyle…”
The man winked at him before leaving. Kyle was three years older than her but he seemed more mature than his age. He was also good looking and Liam even joked with her not to be too close to her paralegal and forget her husband.
”Liam…” Lana whispered with her sad voice. She once again checked on her mobile phone but still there were no words from him. She hoped Liam could at least read her text messages.
She tried to concentrate at work the whole day despite her weariness because how many times she tried, she still could not contact her husband.
Instead, she received a call from Luo inviting her for dinner together at the right time since she needed someone to talk with as well.
Luo came directly to Lana's office that noon as soon as she was done with her work. She was still in a confused state so she wanted to seek Lana's opinion pertaining to Noah.
She sighed as her eyes were on the road driving. Daryl was absent for work that day and she felt bad thinking about him. She read all his messages and she could feel the pain in them. She did not like her situation at that moment especially being the cause of someone's suffering.
As soon as she arrived at Lana's office the two left together. They decided to go directly to Lana's apartment.
”Wow I bet it's nice living alone… Your apartment looks really cool...” Luo commented when they got inside. She herself wanted to try living on her own as well but her mother would always beg her not to do so.
