The Law of Attraction

Chapter 541: Together As A Family

At Huang Mausoleum.

Lana put some fresh flowers on the crypt of her mother. She lit some candles as she whispered, "Happy birthday mom…"

"I'm really grateful that you came into my life and took care of me. Wherever you are, I hope you are happy to see me with the man I love. The man you saved. Sorry that it took me a while to visit you… I miss you so much mom…" She whispered as tears started to fall from her eyes.

Lana felt Liam's arm on her shoulder pulling her into his embrace.

"Mom Ana you don't have to worry about Lana… I will take care of Lana and our future children as well. Saying thank you is not enough to express my gratitude for what you have done for me…" Liam whispered, stuttering.

Lana rested her head on his chest as she whispered, "Mom. I'm pregnant. You will become a grandmother soon. I am sure you are happy and rejoicing right now…"

Lana tried her best not to cry. She had to keep smiling while delivering the good news to her mother. How nice it would be if her mother was still alive to see her future grandchildren since she loved kids very much. But then she would not let her mother's sacrifice go to waste as she would treasure Liam and never leave him again no matter what.

They did not stay long and went out of the mausoleum, walking hand in hand.

"The weather is so nice today," Lana commented as she looked at the sky. It was sunny but it was not too hot, just enough humidity combined with a partly cloudy sky and a bit of wind, making her hair dance gracefully. She saw a bench and pulled Liam to sit on it for a while.

Lana suddenly chuckled making Liam turn to stare at her while he curiously asked, "Why?"

Lana looked at him and whispered, "It's just funny how love works in such mysterious ways… Two people… a man-hater and a woman-hater ended up being together…"

"Hmm…" Liam was about to say something but it started raining unexpectedly so both of them rushed to their car with Liam covering Lana's head with his coat.

"The sun is shining so brightly yet it started raining," Lana mumbled as they were inside the car. Liam handed her a blanket he always kept in the back of his car.

"It's a sunshower…" Liam said as he looked at the front. Then his lips lifted up and whispered, "Look! A rainbow popped up."

Lana followed his gaze and smiled, "Yeah, it's beautiful…"

"It's just like us -- rain and sun clashing which are the key ingredients in making a beautiful rainbow," Liam meaningfully commented.

"You see... I bet the sun hates the rain and the rain hates the sun as well, but together they make a beautiful rainbow. This is my version… my rendition… for the law of attraction…" Liam added.

Lana laughed and said, "Such a brilliant interpretation you have my love."

"I know right…" Liam boasted as he pulled Lana to his embrace.

"I'm grateful you kissed me that day…" Liam whispered lovingly. He would never forget his first encounter with Lana. A fierce woman who kissed him out of nowhere, a stranger…

"Well, I'm also grateful that you were the first man to enter that door…" Lana confessed with a grin.

"Wait… What? You mean you intended to kiss just any man who would enter that door at that time?!" Liam burst in disbelief.

Lana laughed and said, "Of course not. I was just lucky that a handsome man without a wedding ring entered that door… And if it was not for you then I would have probably bored myself to death listening to the arranged marriage talks my mother was saying and then would end up telling them that I was against it."

Giggling, Lana added, "But you entered… And maybe I was so smitten by you that my own instinct pushed me to stand up and kiss you?"

"Remove the question mark and put a period. You were smitten... period…" Liam mumbled with a grin as he started the car engine.

Instead of answering Lana just kissed Liam on his lips and seductively whispered, "I'm still smitten right now by your oozing handsomeness…"

Liam reddened and timidly replied, "Let's go, I bet they are already waiting for us…"

Lana nodded. She touched her belly and mused, "Baby, I bet you will look like your father when you grow up."

The couple soon arrived back at Sy mansion where everyone seemed to be ready. There were four camper-vans parked in front of the mansion. One for Liam and her, one for Father Sy and Mom Chelsy, one for Miley and Jorge, and finally one for Luo and Noah of course.

"We are all set to go on the trip!!…" Luo burst upon seeing Lana and Liam who were already back.

"This is so fun…" Miley giggled and urged everyone to go to their respective campervans and start the trip. They would have pit stops on the way for camping and meals. They soon left the house to where the camper-vans were in convoys.

Lana smiled… She was very ecstatic, watching everyone…

"Ready to go love?" Liam asked with a smile towards her as he extended his hand for her. She stared at Liam's hand and moved hers to reach his hand. Nothing could compare to being with the person you love.

She knew they would still face a lot of things in the future as a husband and wife… as parents… as grandparents and if God would permit, as great grandparents as well… But as long as they are together as a family, surely they could overcome anything no matter what came their way… whether good or bad...
