Lana felt relaxed that Liam was busy most of the time at work and didn't bother her even during lunch, nor tried to even bug her at home after their conversation that night at the poolside.
She was relieved, but she also felt an uneasiness grow inside her heart. She assessed herself after that day and knew she was feeling something she should not have felt. She realised that she had unknowingly started venturing into a new road that she had never imagined she would head to.
She hated that unfamiliar feeling growing in herself, that she was having towards Liam. Her mother was getting better already, so she decided that she would go back to her apartment after one more week. There she could easily kick Liam out, unlike in the mansion where her mother's eyes were everywhere.
She intended to keep her vow not to fall in love so she would treat and fight with that feelings early before it ate all her systems. To her, falling in love was like a deadly disease she should avoid.
With a blank face, Lana looked uninterestedly at the plate of meat on the table. She heaved a deep, long sigh of distress. She was out for lunch with the rest of the interns, who unlike her were busy talking enthusiastically with each other.
Her thoughts then drifted back to Liam, who lately seemed to be very quiet. She wondered if she had gone overboard with him since Liam only talked to her about work after that day.
She suddenly thought of Gracy, whom she did not see for even once after the c.o.c.kroach and spider prank incident she did.
'This is for the better…' Lana silently consoled herself regarding Gracy who no longer bothered her and Liam thus she no longer needed to pretend like a real wife of Liam.
Another sigh escaped her mouth…
"Are you with us, Lana? I said all of us must attend tonight…" Lilly elbowed her, interrupting her line of thoughts.
"I'm so excited for tonight! I heard the company had a lot of things to give and their program is really interesting. They have also invited a lot of known celebrities for a special number." Chelsy commented with a grin.
"You're attending the party tonight, right?" Lily asked Lana once more, and she nodded. Lily would often pull her out with everyone like that during lunchtime. She was trying to avoid Liam so she also started joining the interns at lunchtime lately.
Lana looked at Steven, who seemed to act well in hiding all that he found out about Liam and her. But unlike before, he was more careful of his words now towards her.
'Poor man!' Lana mused because before Steven was a talkative person who complained a lot about workload before but since she was present, he rarely voiced out his negative comments.
Hours passed by so slowly for Lana. After lunch she went with the rest of the interns to attend a seminar, then afterwards returned to the office to get ready and to change for the company event.
Her clothes were inside her room and she intended to change there so she walked back at Liam's office.
She opened the door and went inside. She was about to walk into her room but halted.
Her eyebrows snapped together as she witnessed Liam coming out from the wall. It was not a wall but a hidden door! No one would have ever thought there was a room there.
Their eyes met. Liam subconsciously gulped and said a silent curse. Of all the timings… Why would he get caught during the time when he knew Lana was in a crucial period trying to sort out her conflicted emotions?
"What the heck is that?!" Lana scoffed and without further words she walked briskly towards it. Liam paled because he was still standing at the opened door and Lana barged inside his private room.

'I'm doomed!!!' Liam cried in silent agony. Lana was fuming red and he knew he would be judged wrongly very soon! Hopefully not a death sentence by her!

Lana was too quick and last thing he knew she was already inside his private room.
'Dammit!' he cursed because his blinds were up, giving a proper view of Lana's room on that side.
"What is this? You mean you've been peeking on me all this while?" Lana barked in horror because she even took off her clothes there to change so many times and right now also she was about to do the same to change for the party.
"Lana, that's a direct accusation. It's not like what you think. I don't peek at you from there!" Liam for the first time in his life had a hard time explaining and defending himself from Lana's accusing words.
"And what should I think about it, Liam, huh? I'm not aware that there's a one way glass wall in here! You should at least have informed me!" She yelped in embarrassment.
"I'm sorry Lana about this, but please don't get it wrong… It's not intentional… I..." Liam tried to explain but proper words were suddenly hard to find.
Lana's face was so crumpled, and Liam knew no explanation could justify things to his advantage at all.
"Lana… I'm really sorry about this, but trust me… I didn't have any bad intentions, just…" Liam cursed himself because he himself could not still find the right words to pacify Lana's irritation.
"I want a separate area to sit for myself, starting tomorrow. Somewhere not inside your office will be ideal! Whatever you say now is not acceptable Liam because the fact remains… You hid that damn one way wall private room of yours that invaded my privacy!" Lana beseeched.
Liam washed his face with his hand while he watched Lana beamed out of his private room. He saw her grab something in her room and Liam followed.
"Lana please… Sorry I'm wrong… It's because I thought it won't be necessary to tell anymore knowing your temperament. There's just a misunderstanding… Please forgive me." Liam said.
Lana faced him and asked, "tell me how it became just a misunderstanding, huh?"
Liam then told Lana everything from the start in all honesty, hoping Lana would accept his apology because he was aware that he was also at fault.
She was expressionless or throughout his explanation.
"I still want to change room Liam. I'm no longer comfortable working in the same space with you." Lana whispered before rushing out of his office.
Liam helplessly plopped down on a chair near him...
