Chapter 497: Letting Go

Liam parked his car in the bas.e.m.e.nt to pick-up Lana from her office. He was on his way to enter the building when the elevator doors opened and saw that it was Kyle.

Kyle shook his head and said, "I was just thinking about contacting you to set up a meeting but I guess you saved me the effort in doing so… I won't take long. Can you give me some time?"

Liam nodded and both men went back into the building but not to Lana's office. Instead, they talked at the cafe on the ground floor.

Kyle ordered coffee before he looked at Liam and said, "I already submitted my resignation letter and this would probably be the last day you and Lana will see me."

"I told you already that you don't have to resign if you can maintain your friendship with her… If you can only look at her as a friend then I have no problem with you staying beside her…" Liam commented. He already talked to Kyle about it and discussed with Lana as well that she did not need to let Kyle leave.

Kyle scoffed and intently looked at Liam and said, "I'm not confident that I can ever look at her as a friend after I realized my feelings for her. There's this inner voice inside me that more often than not tempts me to take advantage of her trust, her vulnerability, everything, whenever I see an opportunity… Despite knowing that I shouldn't do it because in Lana's eyes there is only Liam Sy…"

Kyle contemplated for a while and sighed before grabbing a doc.u.ment from his bag and handed it to Liam.

"I bought some shares to help Lana out during the board meeting when Jay Zhao struck her, to help her keep her position and expose that scoundrel! And this will be the last favor I am doing to you, only for her sake, without anything in return. You can read the doc.u.ments.

I will hand them over to you and you can transfer back the money I have used to buy them, to my account. I have already signed these papers, transferring all the shares I bought in your name." Kyle added with an obvious hint of sadness on his face.

Liam looked at the papers in disbelief and asked, "Why are you telling this to me and not to Lana directly?"

Kyle smirked and scornfully said, "Because I am a little selfish. Liam, I know how it feels when someone betrays or uses you for their gain, and I could be anything but that. Truth is that my inner self tries to hold me back whenever I'm with her. That selfish part of me wants to stay with her even if it means that I have to use these shares as a reason to stay beside her…

But my conscience knows better. I can't do it when she is in front of me, not yet."

Liam's face darkened hearing his blatant confession for Lana, but soon his darkness dissipated because he could somehow understand Kyle as a man and he respected that Kyle was truthful and did not betray Lana, instead was always helping her.

"Go now… Lana must be waiting…" Kyle muttered seeing the conflicted look on Liam.

Liam stood up and said, "Thank you Kyle and I really appreciate it. I'm sure that a good guy like you will have someone right waiting for you out there. Someone you deserve…"

Kyle sighed and smiled bitterly as he watched Liam leave the cafeteria. Kyle shook his head recalling Liam's last words… Because to him, it seemed like he was out of luck when it came to love.

The first one used him intentionally and left him… The second one, Lana, was already taken from the very start. Lana did not use him intentionally but he wholeheartedly offered himself to be with her and helped her.

Letting go was a hard thing to do but in this case, it was the best thing and the right thing to do.

As he went up and down in his thoughts his mobile phone rang and his eyebrows furrowed seeing the caller ID.

"Hello?" he asked with an uninterested tone.

"Hey! Come here I'm drunk! That man is so busy!!! And I'm so tired of assisting him always smiling at everything!" yelled the woman on the other line.

"I can't. I am busy at work. Deal with it yourself… Isn't this what you wanted? Why are you complaining now?"

"Youuuu… Are you still lurking there at Lana's company? Do you want me to go there and personally tell her how and why you ended up getting close with her huh? How would that be?"

"Shut up!" Kyle hissed.

"Hahahaha! Okay, I will wait for you to come here, or else I will go catch you!"

"Wait there!" Kyle grunted as he turned off the mobile phone and rushed out of the cafe.

Meanwhile, back in Lana's office, Loli inwardly squealed seeing Miss Lana's husband arrive. It was the first time she got to meet him and she was really excited ever since the boss told her about it.

"Sir, the CEO is inside waiting for you…" she said with twinkling eyes.

"Thanks, Loli. Also, thank you for taking care of my wife," Liam commented with a beautiful smile before he entered Lana's office for the first time.

Lana's office was huge like his but it was not as modern as his since Lana retained it and kept it just the way her mother did. She seemed to be in a deep thought staring at a doc.u.ment that she did not even notice that he was already there.

"How was the meeting?" he asked as he walked towards her. Lana lifted her head and her lips immediately curved into a beautiful smile seeing him. She stood up and pounced on him as if they were never together just this morning.

Liam chuckled and gently pushed her to break free and see Lana's face but Lana tightened the hug and buried her face more in his chest as she whispered, "It had been a tiring day, so I want a long hug from my love. Let me recharge a bit since I feel like I lost a lot of energy a while ago in that board meeting… But it ended well and I'm the victor. I will not let anyone destroy the company my mother put all her efforts and sweat into Liam."

Liam gently stroked her hair and whispered, "Hmm, alright charge all you want, and later I will treat you to a nice meal. How about we go on a movie date and watch some funny movie later since my love ended up winning this battle. Or you can just tell me what you want to do and we'll do it… What do you think?"

"Yeah, dinner and a movie would be nice… I will tell you what happened in the meeting during dinner… Honestly, I'm not picky love… I will do anything as long as I get to do it together with you." Lana said with a giggle.

Liam chuckled and said, "You're becoming cheesier than expected…"

Lana tilted her head with pouted lips and met Liam's amused gaze as she mumbled, "You don't like it?"

Liam kissed her nose and whispered, "I love it…"
