Chapter 438 - Really Complicated (2/2)
”Alright, our business here is done. Visit us at our house, Lana, whenever you're free. We will leave now.” May said and Lana walked the couple out to the parking lot.
Inside the car, Riley started the engine but did not step on the gas yet. He looked at May and said, ”How come Lana needs to unlock the door when Liam did not even lock it when he's gone. It was open when we arrived. What's going on?”
May laughed and said, ”Well Liam locked it at night.”
Riley's forehead crumpled as he whispered, ”Just doesn't make sense at all, you know? Why lock it at night and not lock during the day?”
May rolled her eyes and said, He locks it at night so Lana would not barge inside during he sleeps.”
”And why?”
May helplessly looked at her husband and beamed, ”Just drive okay? I thought you're not interested in girl talk so why are you asking now, huh?”
Riley scratched his head and meekly muttered, ”Alright… Just that it's weird. Why would a man lock his door? I'm sure Liam would want it open so Lana can barge inside anytime she wants. They are living together anyways. Ahh, whatever… Their relationship is too complicated to even bother to get curious about…”
May grinned because she was sure her husband was indeed too curious to find out. She only told him about Lana and Liam's one-year separation but not in much detail. So she started narrating what happened.
”Oh, that's really complicated. I hope Lana succeeds. Those two are a perfect pair and it will be really sad if they both end up hurting each other with what happened in the past.” Riley whispered and May nodded in agreement. But she never thought Lana could go to that kind of extent to win Liam back. She was utterly surprised because Lana was a proud woman.
”I guess Lana deeply loves Liam, seeing that she is willing to blend with the situation just to be with him again,” May whispered.
Meanwhile, back at Liam's apartment, Lana prepared herself to go to the office.
”Good morning madam…” her secretary greeted her. Not long after she was seated on her chair, Kyle went inside her office with her favorite coffee.
”Coffee, Boss,” he said with a smile as he put it on Lana's desk.
Lana smiled and said, ”Thank's Kyle. How's work so far?”
He comfortably sat on the chair in front of Lana and replied, ”Boring so far, Boss…”
Lana laughed because she could relate.
”Do you wanna quit early? I saw this coming. You will surely miss the fieldwork…” Lana said with a grin.
”Yeah. But let me see first if it will bore me to death.”
Lana's secretary went inside, interrupting their talk to hand her an invitation for an event next week.
”Madame, should I confirm your attendance?” the secretary asked.
Lana looked at it and said, ”Alright, I will attend this dinner party Loli.”
Kyle looked at the invitation and his face suddenly darkened.
