Chapter 17: A Stable and Responsible Man

There was a long silent pause between the two inside the car and both of them were occupied in their own thoughts.

Lana was the first one to break the silence.

"By the way, I left the reports on your table for the five cases that I believe you will have a hundred percent win. The one at top… I hope you make the perpetrator rot in jail forever…" Lana mentioned, trying to open up a new topic at the same time.

"Which case?" Liam asked.

"The man who ra*ed his stepdaughter." Lana muttered with gritted teeth. If she could, then she would personally take that case and make the perpetrator\'s life a living hell because the victim was a very young girl.

Liam noticed Lana\'s angry voice, so he sighed and said, "Regardless of what case you handle… Always remember to not let your emotion take over you. You should always keep your rational thinking intact. Because more often than not emotions would get in your way and you tend to lose focus."

Lana took that as a suitable piece of advice and nodded. They had a discussion on other cases where the two became more comfortable. Lana noted every single piece of advice from Liam that she even got her notepad and pen inside her bag.

They were too engrossed in discussing the cases that Lana made a report of and she did not notice that they had finally reached her place.

"Oh crap!" Lana hissed when she saw her mother\'s car parked there and the worst part was her mom was already standing outside as if waiting for them to get out of the car.

She was too occupied to notice that Liam already went out from his side to open the other side of the door for her. Lana stepped out with a cringe face.

"Ohh… I was wondering whose car it was. I guess your boyfriend dropped you off." Mrs. Chan greeted with an ear to ear smile.

\'Boyfriend?!\' Lana and Liam both mused.

Mrs. Huang stared at the two with blinking eyes. She had just finished cooking dinner for Lana and was walking around to inspect what else was lacking in her daughter\'s house.

While she was checking the window, she saw an unfamiliar car turn in and park in front of Lana\'s house, so she immediately went out knowing it was her daughter with her so-called boyfriend that she did not bother to even properly introduce to her till now.

\'That brat!\' She breathed as she went out to catch her stubborn daughter red handed.

Liam slightly bowed to pay his respect, but Lana was signalling him to leave quickly.

Mrs. Huang noticed that gesture from her daughter.

"You insolent brat! Why don\'t you introduce me to this handsome young man. He\'s your boyfriend, right? The one you proudly kissed in front of Old Madam Liu and me?" Lana\'s mother scolded Lana but quickly turned her gaze towards Liam and gave him a warm smile.

She knew the man and was waiting to formally meet him, but her daughter seemed to have no intention of bringing the man to meet her.

"I\'m sorry for the late introduction Mrs. Huang… I\'m Liam Sy." She heard the man politely speak and extended his hand to her.

Mrs. Huang gladly accepted it but did not let Liam\'s hand go instead she pulled him and said, "Come inside Liam and join us for dinner. I cooked Lana\'s favorite dish and a few more dishes along with it. And it\'s too much for us to finish..."

Lana\'s eyes widened and said, "Mom... He\'s a busy person. You need to leave immediately, right?"

Seeing Lana\'s panicking face, Liam suddenly felt like teasing her. He turned and smirked at her mischievously before looking back at Lana\'s mother and said, "Thank you so much for the invitation ma\'am."

\'Seriously?\' Lana was shocked by his behaviour. She cursed him inwardly while she followed the two who walked ahead inside her place.

"Please don\'t call me ma\'am. It sounds so formal, just call me \'MOM\' from now on."

"Mom!" Lana burst from behind.

Mrs. Huang laughed and said, "Alright... Just call me aunt Ana then."

"But I don\'t mind calling you \'MOM\'." Liam answered with an enormous smile.

"Oh... such a handsome smile. You should smile more often, dear. You look so adorable." Mrs. Huang commented.

Lana shot daggers at Liam with her eyes, warning clearly written in her eyes, \'Do you want a death wish?\'

Liam ignored her glares and smiled more adorably at Mrs. Huang. He was enjoying Lana\'s irritated face and furious looks. \'It is much fun to annoy Lana Huang.\' he inwardly thought.

Mrs. Huang was very accommodating and thoughtful of Liam that she took care of Liam very well. Lana watched in disbelief because for the first time, she saw her mother ignore her, and paid her full attention to Liam.

Lana pouted her lips while she grabbed her own food for her plate. She twitched her mouth, seeing her mother was almost feeding Liam with her hands.

"Mom! Liam can eat on his own. Go get your plate and sit here and eat..." Lana mumbled and gave her plate to her mother...

She was startled when Liam moved his plate in front of her and said, "here eat this."

Lana looked at him with their eyes throwing fire at him and hissed, "what the heck are you doing?!"

Liam\'s eyes answered with a playful grin, "playing to be your admirable boyfriend, what else?"

Mrs. Huang\'s triumphant smile never left her lips watching her lovely daughter finally with a man in a relationship and the two bickering like small kids in front of her. Losing Jeru Liu was not bad at all, she thought, because Liam Sy was equally good, rather better because her daughter liked him and not Jeru.

Well, the status of the boy did not matter at all for her, but she wanted Lana to be with a stable and responsible man who could stay with her no matter what happened. A respectable man who could protect her daughter well at all costs. She believed most mothers wanted the same for their daughters and she was just one of them.

At first, she was not happy with Lana\'s choice because she had heard a lot of malicious scandals about Liam\'s sexual preferences. But after seeing the man at Lana\'s house and meeting him like this, she herself could tell that those were all just groundless rumors.
