Chapter 206: The Good And The Bad
Lana and Liam spent the entire night together to make a wonderful memory for both of them.
The whole night they made love and had a good conversation about a lot of things. After diving deep into Lana's depths countless times, they both finally got too exhausted and had no more energy to keep awake.
Lana turned on his side and rested her head on Liam's chest, and he held her by her waist and embraced her tightly.
They stayed there, covered under a thick blanket, on the deck, beneath the dark sky and shining stars and only a faint light coming from the crescent moon.
Lana heard the heavy breathing of Liam and she knew he was already sleeping. She then sighed.
Going away for one whole month to live alone, sleep on a cold bed without the pillow of his arms was disturbing to think about, but this month away from him was not entirely for reviewing, but also to seek medical help for her trauma that had been activated after remaining dormant for a couple of years. Also, she wanted to check on something on her own…
That mysterious gift she received on her birthday was a little alarming, and she wanted to find out if it was a prank played by someone or was it real… Another sigh escaped her mouth.
'You will see me soon, huh?' she mused with a scornful look. She closed her eyes as she heard Liam's heartbeat, which felt like a lullaby to her, and very soon she also drifted to sleep.

"Good morning love," Liam whispered as he rained Lana's face with tiny kisses. The two of them fell asleep in each other's warmth under the night sky. The sun was about to rise and he wanted to watch that spectacular view in the sea with Lana.
"Wake up… sleepy head," Liam whispered in her ear and continued to kiss her and his hands kept on moving under the quilt, feeling her soft skin. Lana finally moved and a beautiful smile curved up on her face and her hands slipped on his waist holding him close to herself.
"You're waking me up so early after not letting me sleep the whole night. How cruel…" Lana sluggishly complained as she slowly opened her eyes.
A much wider smile appeared on her face, seeing Liam's handsome face right before her eyes. "Really? Cruel? But you will leave me alone here, starving for a month, don't you think that's more cruel than this…?"
Lana dragged her arms from his waist to encircle them on Liam's neck and mumbled, "Behave while I'm gone." She then pulled him for a kiss.
Liam pulled Lana so they could sit together and watch the sunrise. Lana put her head on Liam's shoulder and sweetly murmured, "Why do you love me, Liam?"
"Just because… I do! Do I even need a reason to love you? All I know is that I love everything about you, Lana. The good and the bad… I will always love you wholly because I love you." She heard Liam whisper.
"Can you wait a bit for me?" Lana asked. She wanted to return Liam's confession with her own, but she was not ready for it yet…
"Take your time Lana. I'm not in a hurry. You just remember to always stay by my side, that is all I will ask from you, nothing else." Liam answered.
Lana smiled as she felt an abundant joy and gratitude in her heart at that time.
*Grrrr…
Lana and Liam looked at each other, hearing the grumbling sound of a stomach. Both laughed and Liam stood up as he said, "I'll go prepare us hot coffee and a sandwich."
Lana nodded and turned to follow Liam's back as she said, "Thank you Liam…"
The both of them soon went back home to get all of Lana's things. Mrs. Huang was in the living room and Liam stayed with her while Lana called for a helper to grab her luggage in their bedroom.
"Did you two enjoy your like borrowed time last night?" Mrs. Huang asked in a jest. Liam chuckled and replied, "Yes, mom…"
"Hmm, god then. While Lana is away… I think you should go and live with your father and spend some good time with your family son. I can feel how much they are missing you ever since you came to live here," Mrs. Huang commented.
Liam pouted his lips on her and complained, "Mom… Are you kicking me out from here so soon?"
Mrs. Huang burst out in laughter as she shook her head and replied, "Not at all… You know because of you I suddenly started regretting not adopting a son like you…"
"Well, now you have me as your son, mom, so you should also take care of me…" Liam mumbled.
Lana?was back and heard?so she interrupted and said, "We should be the one to take care of the elders not the other way round, you know."
She signaled one of their helpers to serve them some tea in the living room before she joined her mother to sit on the couch beside her.
She looked at her mother and said, "You also behave like a good mom while I'm gone okay. Don't eat food that's not good for your health and don't be lazy in doing your daily exercises…"
Mrs. Huang's face twitched and complained, "I thought I can finally breathe some freedom and get a break from your nagging, but I guess even if you're away you'll still bug me now and then…"
"No… I won't but then remember to behave if you don't want to go back to the hospital…." Lana threatened with a smirk, knowing how her mother hated the hospital.
Soon Lana and Liam left the place together. Inside the car, Liam cuddled Lana while they sat on the backseat of the car. "You see, I can't breathe…" Lana whispered in a jest so Liam loosened his embrace.
"Remember to focus properly on the review… Eyes on books and…"
Lana cut him by sealing his lips with hers tears rolling down her cheeks.
Andrew who was driving the car cringed and thought soon ants would flock inside the car as his eyes could not help to look at the view mirror.
