The Law of Attraction

Chapter 475: One Case

Surprisingly, Gracy went with Bill to almost every table to mingle with all the guests, even if it was an opposition party like Lana and Liam since everyone was aware that both Sy and Lao Firms were supporting Keira\'s father, Mr. Troy Chan for the Presidential candidacy.

"It\'s been a while…" Gracy commented with her bright smile as if nothing had happened between them when she and Bill stopped by Liam\'s table during the break, and other guests took their time to mingle with the ones they were acquainted with.

It was Liam who answered and said, "Yeah and we all hope for your well-being, Gracy."

Gracy let out a chuckle and held Bill\'s arms as she said, "Yeah Bill here is taking good care of me. Where is uncle Ram? I want to greet him and introduce Bill."

Liam pointed out the table of his father. Bill and Gracy excused themselves to walk there.

"I hope he won\'t win," Noah could not help but voice out. Luo elbowed him and said "Shhh!!… Someone might hear you!"

Liam chuckled and said, "It\'s okay Luo. Both Noah and me have the same sentiments. I\'m sure you and Lana would not mind us talking about politics since we are the only ones occupying this table."

"You are right, but someone passing by could hear you if you voice it out loud as my husband did…" Luo murmured then added, "I mean we don\'t want any grudges between us in case that man wins.

I honestly think that it\'s best for Noah to play safe and neutral. Well, you and Lana can\'t do that since almost everyone knows about her close relationship with Keira and her husband who is currently the Field Marshal."

Noah smiled and caressed Luo\'s cheeks while saying, "You worry too much, baby…"

"Well, it\'s natural since my sister is pregnant.?She can be emotional at times and will worry a lot…and mind you… you are going to be the center of her worries most of the time!" Lana seconded with a grin.

Luo heaved a long sigh and said, "I just don\'t want to have any new enemies, especially now that I\'m pregnant. I just want a peaceful life with my family."

The two men remained quiet after that, understanding what Luo meant. Lana bit her lip because she felt the same. She too wanted to stay out of trouble as much as possible, but Keira was an exception as Lana could handle any amount of trouble for her sake.

Lana looked in the direction where Gracy and Bill were, talking to her father-in-law, smiling widely as she was introducing Bill to them.

How Lana hoped that Gracy\'s smiles were truly sincere and she was not faking it.

The organizer of the event was obviously on Bill Grey\'s side and if Lana was right, most of the guests invited were those who opposed Mr. Troy Chan.

"You noticed it too right?" Luo whispered when she noticed Lana\'s eyes roaming around, as she asked Liam if he could recognize some of the guests behind the masks.

"All guests are mostly from the opposition party… I noticed that a while ago," Liam interrupted.

"They are trying to buy votes. I will not be surprised if we receive some indecent proposals later…" Noah mumbled with a displeased tone.

Liam chuckled then grabbed Lana\'s hand pulling her to stand up.

"Where are you two going?" Luo asked with furrowed brows.

Lana had a wide grin on her face as she answered her sister naughtily, "We are going to make a playmate for your baby. Wish me luck."

Noah, once again, almost choked on his wine, hearing Lana\'s direct words who left with Liam instantly.

"Why does Lana have to say shocking words whenever I\'m drinking something?!," Noah complained while Luo patted his back as he coughed.

"What did you do to your sister that she became so brazen like you?" Noah asked.

Luo giggled and defended, "If she wouldn\'t be shameless like me, then how do you think she would be able to win Liam back? If change is necessary to achieve a certain goal then what\'s the harm in changing oneself a little, especially if that change will be for a better future?"

Noah held Luo\'s chin and admiringly whispered, "My wife really is the best. Oh, I can\'t wait to make more babies with you again…"

Luo laughed and said, "Hey you need to wait for a few more months. After giving birth to our baby, I still need to rest for at least two months."

Noah\'s face crumpled underneath his mask.

"I always wanted to have a big family. Do you think it\'s possible for us to have five daughters and five sons? You see, I admire large families like that. Like on my mother\'s side, I have many uncles and aunties that you met right? Can we create a huge family just like my grandparents\'?" Noah beamed.

Luo laughed. It was indeed true that Noah\'s maternal grandparents had a huge family and she was surprised when she met them although two of his uncles had already departed from the world.

"I really salute your grandparents. Can you imagine how much effort it takes to have a dozen children?" Luo hollered.

"We can also do that as long as it won\'t compromise your health, baby," Noah teased.

Luo chuckled and suggested, "How about we speed things up by having triplets in one birth. I heard it\'s possible now."

Well, she too would love to have a big family but imagining herself getting pregnant twelve times was horrifying.

Noah chuckled, seeing how his wife fell in a daze. He shook his head and murmured, "I think you should go back and practice law after giving birth, or else everything you studied would rot in your head. Geez, I can\'t believe you forgot about the revised child policy…"

Luo\'s eyes rounded, "Oh right! You brute! Teasing me like that? And here I am, already worrying about how I\'ll be able to carry a child every year?"

Noah laughed because his wife was naturally a funny woman without even trying.

"I can\'t believe I\'m forgetting such important rules… Oh, I should start accepting a few cases once in a while. Give me some light cases from your firm…" Luo suddenly requested.

Noah pulled her to his embrace and whispered, "Nah, you only have to handle one case and that\'s loving your husband unconditionally…"
