Chapter 123: Unless Both Parties Agreed

After they finished dinner, Liam and Lana walked Mrs. Huang to her room to rest and settled her in her bed comfortably.

"You both now quickly head to your bedroom and the two of you, don't forget to enjoy the night…" Mrs. Huan teased with a wink before forcing Liam and Lana out of her room

"Goodnight mom," the two said in chorus and left the room a little confused with her attitude.

Liam opened the door for Lana when they reached their room, and Lana's jaw dropped just as she walked inside her room.

Her room was beautifully and romantically decorated for the couple to feel special as that was their first night in Lana's house. The bright lights of the room were put off and only a dim light was left on.

To add romance to the air, candles were lit in a corner and there were some bottles of red wine decorated in a basket full of roses kept on the side table. To Lana's horror, even some rose petals spread on her bed, making the entire scene sensual, romantic and perfect for the first night of a newlywed couple.

"Mom!" Lana gasped in shock. No wonder her mother had been showing them an ambiguous grin and was trying to shoo them away from her room as fast as she could on the pretext of taking a rest.

Lana shook her head and was about to go out to question her mother and ask someone to come and clean the room, but before she could turn back and step out of the room, Liam held her by her wrist and stopped her.

"Let it be Lana. What do you plan to do? Remember, your mom thinks our relationship is real, so she made this effort for us to enjoy after being separated for so many nights soon after our marriage." Liam muttered and looked around, appreciating the arrangements in the entire room.

Even the bedsheet of Lana's bed was changed into a new red coloured sheet with overall small hearts printed on it. Such a perfect first night arrangement. Liam felt a little bad for his mother-in-law, and of course for himself. No wonder his mother-in-law kept them really busy in a conversation while having dinner.

Lana helplessly walked towards her bed. She looked around and sniggered.

Liam saw the bottles of wine on the table and grinned at how adoringly clever his mother-in-law was. She was helping him a lot without her knowing that. He wanted to do this simple kind of thing for Lana, but he was scared that him being too sweet or clingy would give Lana room to get alarmed and run away in the process. How he wished to celebrate their wedding together with some wine and candlelight. Not to mention he wished to buy her red roses every day, but dared not...

Liam then left her wrist and walked towards the table where the basket of wine bottles were kept. He grabbed one bottle of wine and opened it. He poured some wine in the two wine glasses kept there and handed one glass to Lana.

"Here, we must at least finish a bottle of wine because mom will surely ask the helpers tomorrow morning how much we drank before sleeping." Liam presumed. Lana knew it as well, so she grabbed the glass and drank it all straight in one gulp.

"I must back out since I'm not allowed to go near your bed," Liam said in a jest and sat on his couch. Lana pursed her lips and stood up from her bed to sit beside Liam and joined him on the couch.

"It's so unfair don't you think? How come you can trespass here in my area, but I'm forbidden from entering your area?" Liam mumbled as he poured some more wine in Lana's glass.

Lana's eyes darted at Liam and with arched brows she said, "Shall I remind you that you're in my room, and I can come and go anywhere and at any time I like? I've been merciful to you to my maximum level of patience just so you know… You've been acting as if this is your room from the moment you stepped in with your luggage, don't you think that is a little unfair?"

Liam only shrugged his shoulders and stopped himself from saying that he never had any intentions of leaving her at all, while Lana finally grabbed her mobile phone to open and check the email Liam said he sent. She wondered what were the conditions he had stated in the draft there. She was also about to draft an agreement, but she was too busy with her mother to do so.

"What is this?" Lana burst out with the first condition itself that she read in the doc.u.ment Liam sent her. Her eyes rounded in disbelief.

"Which part are you offended with?" Liam calmly asked while he drank his wine. He was aware Lana would make a fuss on many of the things written in there.

"The first condition written in the draft, at number one? Our marriage… Don't have a span or expiration unless both parties agreed to it? What the heck is that? Are you for real?" Lana beamed with eyebrows snapped together.

"Yeah. What's with it? Don't tell me if I want to quit, do you plan to disagree?" Liam instantly countered. He once again used reverse psychology in replying to Lana.

"In your dreams," Lana chided, irritated with the fact that Liam would always make it look like she was the one who always wanted to take an advantage to the situation.

"That's good to hear then. So I guess I don't have to worry in case I want to null our marriage any day." Liam added, hoping he acted enough for Lana not to get alarmed.

"Don't worry… I will give you your freedom as early as possible." Lana commented wryly.

"I'm not rushing you though… Remember, you're my best shield against all those unwanted women trying to come into my life. I would prefer someone like you to be with me forever." Liam jokingly said before raising his glass for a toast.

"I still believe that we are a suitable match, you see. I wonder why you did not seem to realize that till now!" Liam added and drank his wine.

Lana rolled her eyes while she continued reading what all Liam had mentioned in the said agreement. She had a lot of comments and objections, but Liam was prepared enough to counter everything written in there so Lana would not feel like she was at any disadvantage of their so-called set-up.

"Lana, I'm saying this because I truly care for your mother. Her recovery is very important. And one thing that will speed up her recovery is her having a joyful heart. I'm sure you noticed how blissful she is knowing about this marriage. Seeing that we have a good relationship seems to brighten her day up…

I am willing to extend my help to your advantage because I want your mother to recover well. She's so kind and warm to me… The kind of mother I had been longing for ever since…" Liam stressed out.

Yes, he did again use a psychological approach while delivering that speech, but everything he said also came from his heart.

He silently sighed, hearing no words from Lana. She looked expressionless as she continued to read.

"Lana if you feel any burden at all with our set-up… You can always tell me so I can make adjustments where you can be more comfortable. Like I said, you don't have to worry…" Liam added.

He wrote that agreement because Liam only wanted to make sure he could keep Lana in close proximity to his side as much as possible. Then eventually he would make sure she falls in love with him and would happily and willingly stay with him forever...
