Chapter 438 - Really Complicated (1/2)
The next morning, Lana felt a little sad since there seemed to be no progress. Liam had fully recovered, but he just ate breakfast, gave the usual cold shoulders and to her, and went off to work afterwards.
She was supposed to go to work as well but she did not and instead waited for May and her husband to arrive.
May and Riley soon arrived.
”Oh, you two are no longer staying at Sy mansion?” May commented as Lana led her to the living room for some coffee.
”Liam is staying here so I have to follow him. How are you, Riley?” Lana replied and had a good talk with the couple.
”Where's the door?” Riley asked after finishing his coffee. Lana felt a bit embarrassed, but May only laughed and teased her, ”Why are you all red now? I explained everything to Riley already, that you're planning to invade your ex-husband's privacy…”
”He's not my ex-husband! Why do you keep addressing Liam like that?” Lana complained with a pursed lips.
May grinned and said, ”Alright, soon to be a husband again?”
Lana ignored her and instead pulled Riley towards Liam's room. She watched while Riley opened his toolbox and did his magic with Liam's door.
”You girls should just go back to the living room and continue with your girl talks. I will soon be done with it,” Riley commented with a grin.
May pulled Lana back and asked, ”Won't Liam get angry once he finds out?”
Lana dropped her shoulders and murmured, ”he won't find out.”
Lana then looked at May's stomach and asked, ”Do you already know the gender?”
May smiled as she caressed her belly. She was five months pregnant with her second baby already.
”We will know, next week. We have to leave as soon as Riley is done.” May commented.
”Why in a rush? You're lucky you have someone you can trust with Mari.” Lana mumbled pertaining to May's first child. May laughed and nodded because she could comfortably leave Mari to Keira, which she did often, whenever she needed to leave and Riley would not be around as well.
”You should also move out and live somewhere near Keira. That's a benefit when we have houses nearby. All our babies are basically growing up together like how we did when we were kids. Oh, I can't wait to see you get pregnant again.
Anyway, I will also support you like Keira that's why I brought Riley here. Make sure you seduce Liam back and this time make more babies now that your life is no longer in danger.” May remarked.
”Yeah, I will. I've been left behind. You guys have so many children while I still don't have any. I almost had one, I lost my baby because of that man…” Lana commented with a string of pain in her heart recalling that tragic day.
May grabbed Lana's hand and gently squeezed it.
”Don't worry. We are not in a race you know… You will soon have a baby again. I will pray that you succeed in winning Liam back soon and have more babies to come your way.” May consoled.
The two chatted some more in the living room as they waited. Soon Riley came back to the living room and handed Lana a key and something else that looked like a small gadget.
”Here use these both… This is for the lock and this one for the latch inside in case he will also use that.” Riley commented and Lana tried it out.
”Oh, you're really great with locks. Thanks, Riley…” Lana beamed.
