The Law of Attraction

Chapter 472: Looks Familiar

"Your hands are cold…" Senior Sy commented when he held Chelsy\'s hand as they walked towards the entrance of the hotel to attend the charity ball event.

"Yeah, I\'m nervous. This is my first time attending a grand event such as this. I feel like I\'m inside a historical era, Ram," she whispered as they entered the vast function hall that was glamorously decorated.

Everyone inside looked so gorgeous in their extravagant costumes. She and Ram were escorted to their table, where Miley and Jorge were already seated as the representatives of Sy Inc.

"Is Liam already here?" Ram asked.

"Not yet, father. His table is with Luo and Noah one table down, on our right side," Jorge answered. Starters were already being served when Liam arrived with Lana in his arms.

Liam stopped at the table where his family were, to greet his father and the rest.

"We got caught up in the traffic," Liam said smiling. He looked so dashing that Miley could not help but unconsciously comment, "You look happy that you got caught up in the traffic… I wonder why…"

Lana blushed and she was grateful that she was wearing a mask so no one could notice it. She gave Miley and Chelsy a cheek to cheek kiss before Liam pulled her to their seats since the program was about to start.

Lana excitedly hugged her sister, whose stomach was growing bigger already.

"You look so stunning my dear sister," Luo whispered in her ear and Lana loudly expressed, "It\'s because I\'m in love."

Noah almost choked on his drink when he heard that. Lana and Luo giggled together.

"Excuse my husband since it\'s the first time he heard you speak candidly like that," Luo teased. Then she added, "I guess Liam is already used to your shamelessness…"

"I honestly prefer that she\'s more vocal now," Liam answered with a smile

Jorge suddenly approached their table with a worried look and whispered something in Liam\'s ear.

"Do you want me to exchange my seat with Sarah? I thought she would not come since her secretary told me she was still sick," Jorge murmured, making sure Liam would be the only one to hear.

Liam stood up and excused himself to talk to Jorge from a distance, far enough that none from their table could hear them.

"No need, let her sit here. I will deal with her directly and show her her right place if she does not behave," Liam muttered back.

Liam went back to his seat and Sarah, who just arrived, joined them at the table. She was smiling widely at Liam, so Liam deduced that the HR department had not managed to talk to her yet, about the termination of her contract at his firm.

Sarah greeted everyone at the table including Lana who answered back with half-a-smile.

The woman sat beside Liam and Luo elbowed Lana and whispered, "Check your mobile phone and let\'s talk there."

[That woman… Look how she\'s looking at Liam… I saw her sharp gaze towards you as well.]

Lana chuckled as she read Luo\'s message. They were sitting on a round table and Sarah was sitting parallel to Luo.

[You look confident. That\'s good… I guess you already secured Liam huh?]

Lana looked at Luo and gave her sister a charming and meaningful smile, relaying a positive vibe.

Lana\'s eyebrows lifted when she saw Sarah giving Liam some dessert, but she smiled hearing Liam refuse as he simply said, "I\'m good Sarah. Don\'t bother about me. I\'m not comfortable."

Luo and Lana exchanged meaningful glances and Lana bet Sarah was firing deadly stares at her, as she too had offered Liam some desserts and the latter gladly accepted it when she fed him directly.

"OMG!" Luo gasped and could not help but add loudly, "Oh, I bet my baby will have a playmate soon…"

Lana laughed and sincerely said, "You\'re exaggerating but I will say Amen to that…"

She could not wait to have another baby with Liam and she would take care of herself this time around.

Soon, the program started and the hosts greeted and welcomed everyone. They also informed that the celebrities would have special numbers in intervals with the auction, so some of the sponsors and guests were anticipating it since they invited all the famous celebrities in the entertainment industry.

On another table, Chelsy excused herself to go to the restroom and check herself in the powder room. She noticed a beautiful woman was also inside and she had removed her mask. Chelsy froze looking at the woman… The woman looked so familiar.

"She looks familiar…" she whispered unconsciously.

Hearing her murmur, the woman turned to her and asked, "Excuse me?"

Chelsy managed to compose herself and answered, "Oh I\'m sorry. I thought you were someone I knew…"

The woman gave her a sweet smile and said, "You have probably seen me in the newspaper or television with the Presidential candidate Bill Grey…"

"Oh… Yeah, that\'s right," Chelsy whispered. She probably saw the woman there somehow since she looked familiar.

Though the woman already left, Chelsy still tried to recall where she had seen her… It felt like she saw her somewhere else, but could not recall where.

She went back to her table but her eyes still followed the woman she met in the restroom.

"What is it?" Ram asked.

"That woman…" Chelsy whispered.

"You know Gracy?" Ram commented. He was already aware that Gracy came back as the fiance of Bill Grey. He was surprised, but then who was he to question Gracy\'s love life. He only hoped the best for Gracy despite the incident with his family. They parted ways with Gracy having bad feelings towards them, even though she was the one who made that crack in her relationship with his family.

"Gracy is her name? You know her?" Chelsy asked back and Ram nodded.

"I will tell you about her later before we go to sleep…" Ram whispered in her ear.

"You\'ll sleep with me again?" Chelsy unconsciously burst in disbelief. Ram only nodded with a roguish grin towards her. Not that she was complaining, but she somehow felt shy imagining what Ram\'s children would think.

Miley laughed because she heard them so she interrupted and said, "How about living with us in advance mom Chelsy?"

Ram chuckled because he knew Chelsy was completely red behind that mask of hers.
