Chapter 455: Drama
Mian nodded at Sarah who immediately stormed inside the boss' room.
She turned to Lana and gave her an awkward smile who seemed to be gazing at her with questioning eyes as if asking about what just happened.
"Miss Sarah, I mean attorney Jung, is closely working with sir Liam and the rest of his close team, so she often brings sir Liam's lunch as well when she arrives for some briefings and if sir Liam is not going out for lunch.
Lana sighed and said, "You don't need to explain Mian. I was just surprised to see that someone could dare enter Liam's office like that, anyway since Liam is inside I guess I can also go in now. It's lunch break and I doubt the two of them would talk anything about business for the next hour."
As soon as Mian nodded, Lana also walked inside Liam's office. She was gone for more than a year, so a lot could happen during that time. Liam was single and a very good catch so it was understandable that women would flock around him, making sure to strike on every opportunity that they could.
Meanwhile, Mian gulped as she watched Lana go inside the door.
"I smell trouble… Do you?" Dona whispered as her gaze also fixed at the door where Miss Lana entered.
"Too bad the blinds are closed. We won't be able to witness what's going to happen," Mian murmured, trying to peek inside the room, too curious to witness what would happen inside the office.
"Miss Lana is looking more gorgeous don't you agree? She's glowing and I like her long hair… So pretty…" Dona could not help but mutter.
"Yeah, but the problem is our lunch. Miss Sarah did not leave our paper bag here and entered the office directly." Mian mumbled, a little disappointed.
Dona chuckled and said, "One of them will leave soon and will hand the paper bag to us so don't worry. Both of them have brought meals…"
Mian clicked her tongue and looked at Dona with disappointment as she said, "You've been here for years and yet you still do not know how our boss' mind works. Just wait for the buzz."
As soon as Mian finished talking, the intercom buzzed and they heard their boss say, "Mian bring Dona as well and join us for lunch."
"I guess we will witness the awkwardness of the atmosphere while enjoying an expensive meal?!" Dona excitedly beamed.
Mian and Dona entered the pantry inside the boss' office. There they saw Sarah and Lana, both taking out the food they bought from the paper bags.
Mian and Dona quickly moved and grabbed the bags from the two of them and said, "We'll arrange the lunch…"
Lana refused and moved next to Liam. Her eyebrows lifted up when Sarah trotted and sat down next to Liam, right opposite her.
"I bought prawns for you. You like this last time so I ordered more…" Sarah said as if she and Liam were the only ones inside the room.
"I cooked prawns last night only, love. So I thought you would prefer to eat meat this time, so I bought beef for you. I did not call since I was planning to surprise you," Lana commented and removed the prawns from the front of Liam.
"Mian, you can have some with Dona…" Lana nonchalantly commented and put some beef on Liam's plate. She looked at Sarah, who seemed to be displeased, and said with a poker smile, "Do you want some beef too?"
Sarah shook her head and whispered, "No thanks."
Mian and Dona watched as Lana cut the beef on Liam's plate. Then they sneaked glances at Sarah. They wondered if Sarah could stay to eat lunch with them. It seemed like the two of them were back together with Lana calling the boss love and she clearly stated she cooked for him the last night, implying they were living together.
Lana did not care much and just thoughtfully took care of Liam. She even wanted to feed him in front of the vixen but she was not confident enough that Liam would entertain such a blatant display of affection.
"I heard about you…" Sarah suddenly commented in the middle of lunch.
"Really? I hope you heard nice things about me then." Lana mumbled.
Sarah only shrugged her shoulders. Then she looked at Liam and said, "By the way, we won Dante's case…"
Sarah then looked at Lana and said, "I handled that case recently, between a married couple. The man filed the suit against his wife who cheated on him and left with another man. I witnessed how his wife begged him to get back with him, and the good thing was Dante did not let his emotions take over."
Mian and Dona were stunned hearing her words, exchanged meaningful glances with each other, both understood each other with a silent message of, 'here comes the drama…'
"Oh, I see…" Lana casually whispered.
Sarah smirked and with lifted eyebrows continued, "Dante made the right choice. Women like his wife do not deserve another chance. Women who do not value a relationship and do not know the word commitment do not deserve pardon. Why would Dante accept someone like that back?
Obviously, his wife will just trample on him over and over again knowing how weak he was and how easily he can be manipulated. So it's good that Dante did not trust that woman again and put her back to her place…"
Lana scoffed and with a lopsided grin mumbled, "Oh good thing my Liam is not like that Mr. Dante. He understood why I had to leave for a while…"
Lana lovingly touched Liam's arms and added, "People judge us so easily without knowing real facts, anyway I'm grateful to be back on Liam's side and surely… This time around I will make sure not to leave again so I can remove any pests roaming around my man, Liam."
Sarah's nostrils flared with annoyance but she managed to let out a poker smile. Unless the two got married, she believed she still had a chance over Liam. Lana left for a long time and she was there with Liam after that, supporting him silently all that time, for more than six months.
She felt her world crumble when she heard the news of marriage talks of Liam with the Chua family but Jorge, later on, told that it did not materialize.
She was determined to get Liam but how come another intruder appeared so suddenly? His ex-girlfriend who left suddenly and hurt him?
Liam, on the other hand, did not know how to react, whether to laugh or leave, so he just focused on eating. Deep inside, he was enjoying seeing how Lana was defending her rights on him. How she was guarding him and marking him as hers.
So in the end, he remained quiet while intently enjoying Lana's possessiveness for him.
