Chapter 114: Extra Patience

Lana suddenly felt guilty, seeing Liam's sullen mood. She sneakily looked at her mother who was busy watching the morning news and whispered to Liam, "My close friends are coming today and they might be here very soon. They are not yet aware of our marriage. If they find out I have a man in my life, they will kill me with their incessant teasing…"

She could still recall how she had to explain everything to Keira because Jeru's wife accidentally spilled the story of her kissing incident to Keira when they met in the event where descendants of the infamous 'untouchable lovers' from their history gathered yearly.

"Are you somehow ashamed of me?" Lana heard the downcasted tone in Liam's voice.

"Of course not!" Lana quickly defended. Liam then smiled and said, "Then I would also love to meet them all… The people who are so close to you. Don't worry, their teasing will surely not kill you."

Lana was about to utter more convincing words to make him leave early, but before she could utter any other word, the door suddenly opened and Keira's voice rang inside the room.

"Mom Ana, how are you?" Keira beamed and immediately hugged Mrs. Huang on her bed.

"Oh, my gosh! Keira! Look! Lana has a man!" May yelped as soon as her head turned into Lana's direction at the side.

Keira turned into her direction and with rounded eyes thundered, "OMG! Liam Sy? It's true then?"

"Hello Keira," Liam greeted Keira, whom he knew already.

"Oh, Keira. I guess you know Lana's husband, Liam." Mrs. Huang interrupted with her proud boasting voice.

"Husband!" Lana's friends, Keira, May and Drey, inside the room exclaimed loudly in chorus.

All their eyes were on Lana, who's face paled… While Liam greeted everyone sweetly with his ear to ear smile.

"Oh, God…. This is marvellous news and we are so happy for you Lana! Liam Sy, you are one of the luckiest men on the planet, I should say!" Keira burst over and ran towards Lana, hugging her tightly and then releasing her and adding, "Lana is no longer a man-hater!!! We should celebrate!!!"

But Keira's face suddenly became serious, "How come you said earlier that what all happened before was just an accident?"

Lana helplessly looked at Keira because that friend of hers loved to ask too many details. Liam noticed Lana's helpless reaction and he could easily understand what Lana was thinking so he took the initiative to answer Keira by putting his arm on Lana's shoulders, and smilingly said, "An accident that led into a good output.."

Lana froze in her spot. She could not handle the questioning eyes of her friends. And as that was not enough, Liam's clingy gestures were driving her mind towards craziness. She almost melted with her embarrassment and her weird emotions because of Liam's hold on her shoulders. What kept her a little sense were the squealing voices of her friends who were over excited about her marriage.

Drey shook his head and said to Keira and May, "Stop teasing Lana with your silent stares girls or else you won't hear a single word from her. I'm sure you're dying to interview her, to know about the whole story."

Drey looked at Liam and smiled.

"By the way bro, let me take the initiative to introduce us all to you since Lana is spacing out, I'm Drey, and this is May. I guess you and Keira already know each other. We are Lana's only friends." Drey introduced in a jest and extended his hand to Liam to shake.

Liam gladly accepted his hand, including May's hand afterwards.

Lana, who finally managed to compose herself, removed Liam's arm from her shoulders and said, "Guys, please sit down. I will get you something to drink."

May, who was a total foodie, immediately noticed the food on the table and said, "Wow, from where did you order these sandwiches Lana, they look really tasty."

"Please help yourself. I prepared it for Lana before coming over and I made a little extra just in case… If I had known her friends were coming, I might as well have prepared something better for everyone." Liam bashfully remarked.

Everyone's eyebrows arched when they heard that Liam had prepared the sandwiches and he was even willing to cook more for the sake of Lana's friends. They were all pretty happily surprised.

"Lucky you Lana, cooking is the last thing you prefer to do, and you got a husband who could cook." May commented and ate some sandwich.

"So Liam is my family lawyer." Keira informed May and Drey before looking at Liam and said, "Oh, I haven't seen you in a while since I moved with my husband to his place. But I'm curious to know how everything happened and how come we were uninvited in your wedding?"

Mrs. Huang, who heard Keira complain, laughed at her curiosity and explained everything to Keira and the rest in what circ.u.mstances Lana had to rush her wedding. She also said that it was her fault, that was why Lana could not even invite anyone for her marriage.

"Wow mom Ana, you're so cool!" Keira commented with a gesture of thumbs up in her hands to Mrs. Huang.

"Yeah, I agree completely with Mrs. Huang because for sure Lana would not have ever married anyone at all. I can still remember her vowing to die as an old maid," May interrupted the conversation while chewing the sandwich and Lana scolded her.

"May don't talk when your mouth is full."

May crumpled her face but sealed her lips and continued eating the sandwiches. Lana's strictness was still there.

"Good luck to you, Liam. She's really a strict woman, you know, so you will need extra patience to deal with her, plus she enjoys frowning a lot." May whispered to Liam afterwards. Lana rolled her eyes at her and mumbled, "It's not like I can't hear you May. I have big ears. Here, drink."

Drey nodded then casually seconded, "That's my advice too bro… Keep extra patience with Lana. She has a very low EQ, negative."

Keira also nodded in agreement, pulling Lana's leg as well and added, "Yeah. She could be hard headed most of the time."

Liam chuckled and looked at Lana.

"Why is everyone saying I will need extra patience with you, love?" he asked in a jest, joining the rest of the gang in teasing Lana.

Keira heard Liam call Lana 'love'. She gulped down her drink and then squealed loudly when Lana did not respond fiercely to it.

Keira looked at May in astonishment and burst, "May… Did you hear that? Love is their endearment. Oh gosh! I feel like I have missed so much happening in Lana's life! We should definitely celebrate! Liam we should all hang out and get drunk. You see, Lana will be sweeter and more obedient when she would be drunk."

"Keira!" Lana exclaimed with a crumpled face and everyone laughed including Liam but he quickly pursed his lips seeing Lana's sharp glare at him saying, "This is your fault."

Mrs. Huang smiled watching them all bantering like that just good old times. All Lana's friends already had their own families and children already. And now Lana, her dear daughter, would soon also have her own family like all her friends.
