The Law of Attraction

Chapter 385: When An Old Man Falls In Love

"Maybe your husband really wants to enjoy your company for a few months. Give him some time dear. I mean having a child is the greatest gift of life, but then with it comes great responsibility. I\'m not sure too, but what I can say is that try putting yourself first in Noah\'s shoes. He grew up practically alone right? His father had been the nightmare of his life.

The way his father dealt irresponsibly towards him might have made him reluctant in taking such a decision, maybe he\'s just afraid of taking this responsibility for now?" her mother justified, trying to neutralize the situation so her daughter could feel relaxed a little and understand things from Noah\'s perspective too.

"He said he is not ready to become a father yet, so I think he has insecurities deep in his heart since he grew up without a father. I mean, yes his father is alive, but he lived all alone right since his mother died!" Luo\'s mother added and Luo nodded.

Luo felt relaxed and convinced by whatever her mother said. Noah was indeed very reluctant in accepting any relationship even the feeling of love was very difficult for him to realize and accept.

Talking about a baby suddenly might have surprised him and very soon he would also understand her point and would agree to have a baby.

It was a good thing to always go to her mother whenever she was not feeling good because her mother never failed to console her.

Luo looked at her mom and with pouty lips said, "Don\'t you want to be a grandma?"

Her mother laughed and replied, "Of course I do. You know how excited we are to be grandparents and how much I and your father are anticipating that very moment. But then everything has its right timing dear. Wait for your husband to be ready.

Or try some other techniques, like vaguely showing him that you eagerly want to have a child. Who knows that may work? If he knows you want to have a baby so badly, then he may prepare and ready himself for it. If he has fears or insecurities… Be his strength and security. Give him courage..."

Luo heaved a long deep sigh and whispered, "Ah, I don\'t want to look desperate for it. I will just give him some time to sort out his thoughts mom? If he is still not ready, then I will knock out whatever insecurities he has out of him...!"

Her mother laughed and said, "I\'m sure you can\'t knock him out. Look how much in love you are with him that you are willing to adjust with your own preferences to meet him halfway. You are trying your best to please him and keep him happy."

"Is it bad mom?"

Her mother shook her head and whispered, "Well it\'s not bad as long as you are happy with the adjustments you are doing dear. It only gets bad when you are no longer happy with the changes you are making for yourself just to please him."

At Sy Mansion

Everyone was silent during breakfast which made Jorge quite uncomfortable so he commented, "Hmm. Why is everyone so serious? Chill guys! Everything will be fine soon."

"I\'m really sorry," Lana could not help but say.

"It\'s my fault for involving you in such a mess," she added feeling guilty.

"What are you saying, sis? It\'s not your fault at all. Everything that\'s happening is because it\'s all bound to happen. Chelsy\'s matter was not your fault. After carefully contemplating the things that happened last night, I came to the conclusion that God allowed Chelsy and father to meet for a purpose. I mean, think about it in a positive way…

With Chelsy\'s cooperation and help we can get to the bottom of this and connect all the people responsible for everything." Miley commented, hoping her words would somehow console her sister-in-law.

She knew her sister-in-law would feel remorseful because all of them needed to adjust their schedules and lifestyle since Liam had assigned personal bodyguards to each one of them.

"Honestly I prefer a male bodyguard, you know, someone hot just like those fit heroes in movies," Miley candidly expressed, making Lana and Senior Sy chuckle but on the contrary, making Jorge crumple his face instead.

Miley placed her hand on Jorge\'s thigh under the table and gently squeezed it, hoping Jorge would get the hint on why she said that.

"Bro, how about we add only female bodyguards for Miley?" Jorge grunted.

Miley\'s eyes widened as she exclaimed in fake anger, "No way!"

Senior Sy inhaled and exhaled loudly before he interrupted, "I believe as long as we all are together in this, it will pass soon. I\'m honestly grateful to each one of you for understanding Chelsy\'s situation."

Miley\'s face soured because she had some other plans.

"Father, I\'m not sure about the others but for me… Geez… I still have to test if she really deserves you. You\'re too precious to us that I\'m now having a trauma in entrusting you to that woman so easily.

So for now, I\'m against you being with Chelsy unless she wins back my trust. I will spare her since we have all important matters to attend at hand but of course, I will not let things be so much easier for her this time!" Miley stated.

Senior Sy heaved a long sigh and looked at Liam.

"I agree with Miley, father. Yes, we understand the matter about Chelsy and why she did that but still, she lied to us. I mean we could have solved things as early as possible if she told us everything the moment those people approached her about ruining my reputation and Lana\'s but she didn\'t…" Liam stressed-out word by word

Lana just quietly listened but she agreed with her husband. Everything could have been solved earlier if Chelsy consulted them with the matter before making any decision on her own. But then again, she also understood that everyone had a different approach to dangerous things like that.

In Chelsy\'s situation, she was clouded with emotions and fear of losing their father-in-law… And then the enemy already managed to clean every trace, making it hard for them to capture it.

Senior Sy helplessly looked at his children and understood their sentiments but he also understood Chelsy\'s situation.

"Alright… After all, this passes, I will help Chelsy in gaining your approval back ." Senior Sy casually stated, making Miley\'s jaw drop.

"When an old man falls in love…" Jorge started teasing with a grin but quickly zipped his mouth due to the piercing glare of their father.

Lana shook her head and smiled, with a family like this at her side, she really did not need to worry. They were all doing their best to appease the situation and she was really grateful for it.
