The Law of Attraction
Chapter 27: Sy Family

Liam dropped Lana off and headed straight to his home. Due to traffic timings, he arrived home just in time for dinner. The whole family sat down for dinner together and Senior Sy, as usual, was excited to talk about Lana whenever he could. He left not a single chance of trying to dig any information about Lana from Liam himself, provoking Liam about her, was one of his favourite things to do lately.

"I heard your girlfriend is doing an internship at your firm and that too under your direct supervision." Liam's father raised his brows and asked to start the conversation.

Liam wanted to chuckle because of his father's acting as if he was not aware of all the details regarding Lana. If he was right, as much as he knew his father and Jorge, they were working in cahoots. Liam was sure that Jorge and his father had teamed up on pushing him to the edge together.

"Yeah, she is interning directly under me and she is a fast learner too. So I expect you to get healthy very soon, father. Make sure you eat well now and don't bother to ask and blackmail me for going on another awkward date," Liam scorned that made Miley chuckle.

Senior Sy's eyes bored into Miley, who gulped and stopped smiling. "What's funny, Miley? Your big brother is already thirty-one, and until now he's single, we saw not even a single girl with him until now. Do you think I should focus on you instead of Liam?"

"Of course not, father. You should prioritize big bro instead. Please don't mind this young lass of yours, I am more capable than my brother. Don't you think so Jorge?" Miley mumbled with a grin and winked at Jorge whose gaze met hers since they were sitting opposite each other.

Jorge silently cursed and tilted his head down as if he did not notice Miley's actions at all and didn't hear her words.

"Liam here is a bit stiff, Jorge, when it comes to women, so I trust you will help him with whatever is needed to keep his relationship stable with her. Lana Huang seems to be an excellent fit for this son of mine, given that she's the only woman who seemed to adapt and tolerate Liam's temper pretty nicely. Well, not to mention that video clip whe…"

"Stop it, father. We're having dinner or are we all here for a discussion about my love life?" Liam butted with a serious tone.

Jorge couldn't hide his instinct of teasing him at that point and his mouth quirked up in a teasing grin. Liam noticed it and lifted his eyebrow, looking at him meaningfully. It immediately reminded Jorge how Liam threatened him to be sent for Miley's help. The horrifying thought quickly diminished his little smile, and he felt like being in a puddle of problems when his gaze shifted to Miley, who kept on winking at him.

Liam was happy when he saw Jorge understood his gesture. "Father, I know what I'm doing and I don't need Jorge's help in my love life. He can't even manage his own love life properly, so how can you ask this man about things like that." Liam mumbled full of sarcasm that almost made Jorge choke.

Miley could not help but laugh out once more. She loved to tease Jorge and would not stop teasing him unless he would cry and beg her to stop. Jorge had grown up with them. He had been living in their house since he was seven. His parents were a close friend of their father, so when his parents died, Miley's father took Jorge under their roof and took care of him like his own son.

Jorge was like a brother to Liam, but Miley could never see him as her brother. Once she started growing up, she always felt different for him than she felt for Liam and it took her a few years of her teenage life to understand that she wanted him more like a romantic partner than even as a friend. And ever since she found out her inclination for him, she was very vocal and showy about it.

"I told you to give Jorge to me instead. You don't need Jorge, but I do. I'm after all a rookie at my father's company, so it would be nice if you'll let a competent man like Jorge assist your little sweet sister." Miley stated. She would always bring that up whenever an opportunity arose, but Liam would only say the same answer all over again.

"Ask Jorge, not me." Liam answered in chorus with Miley. "Yeah, I know…" Miley scoffed with pouty lips as her eyes narrowed at Jorge who would always stay quiet whenever that topic was opened.

Miley smirked, wondering how long Jorge could last her pursuing. 'You will soon surrender to me.' Miley mused while giving Jorge that knowing look.

Senior Sy shook his head as he watched his daughter. He too was aware of what Miley felt for Jorge, but he had decided to never meddle between the two kids, as that would mean forcing Jorge into it, and he didn't want to force him at all.

He knew Miley was now in her twenty-seventh year of age and she too was doing a superb job in assisting him with their family multinational corporation Sy Inc. that was engaged in the design, development, manufacturing, and worldwide marketing and sales of footwear, apparels and many more products.

"Anyway, I'm very excited to meet Lana. The girl who could make my son interested in her, cannot be ordinary." Senior Sy commented as he continued to eat.

Jorge told him that Liam was often with Lana lately, so he presumed everything was going well. He wanted Liam to settle already and give him a grandchild soon. He had never had a woman in his entire life and senior Sy was getting worried about the recent rumor about him being a gay. He felt his dreams dying down when he heard that, but seeing him kissing Lana fiercely in that video made his heart almost explode with rejoice and victory.
