Chapter 303: Punish My Husband Severely

At Country V

Days passed by, Lana had completely buried herself in work, reading documents and finding more witnesses with stronger evidence to make sure she would win Xander's case. She read the rule book of the triad and tried to understand the rules of the Mirage and the proceedings with Xander and Chad, using every strand of her patience to understand as much as she could.

Xander's case was indeed very complicated, and she knew that she must handle everything with an outstanding analysis and utmost sincerity.

She, together with Xander and Chad, worked together with pros and cons of every evidence they would need to submit. They studied all the scenarios that could come up and lead to be at their disadvantage, including how the opponent's group would handle all their accusations and their possible counterparts for the claim to the throne that Xander legitimately belonged to.

Xander was a perfectionist and wanted everything to be perfect here as well. Every evidence, every witness that they could produce and use for their advantage was checked and contacted, making things way easier for her.

She was also a perfectionist and finding each and every smallest of loopholes was her passion. She managed every document in an order that things were more easy to understand when she made a move.

"No wonder, if you continue like this, you will become an old maid," Xander jested as the two of them took a break with Chad bringing some snacks for them.

"I would prefer being single than being with a complicated man like you. I really pity Yera, you know." Lana mumbled but then realized her situation with Liam was the same, complicated. She missed her husband too much, and every passing day without a word from him was pure torture to her heart.

"Ouch! Why is your tongue always sharp!" Xander scolded, and Lana only answered him with shrugged shoulders.

Then he added, "Hah! I'm telling you… Yera is very lucky to have me… You should hope that a man like me will marry you or else you will really end up an old maid because I'm sure your partner will need to put up a lot of patience for a heartless lawyer like you."

Lana only chuckled. She was amused that Xander and Chad were not aware that she was already married, so she could still banter with them like this. She wondered how they would react if they found out she was already married. They definitely would eat their words of teasing her of being an old maid.

Chad then arrived and informed them that their meeting for possible people who could help Xander would proceed and they would need to change into a disguise, since the security of the place was very tight.

Xander immediately moved out to change. Lana watched in disbelief and commented, "Look how excited he is?" Xander always kept Lana on her toes.

She wondered which drug he was on because neither did he himself sleep properly nor did he even let her sleep and always kept asking a lot of questions to her every now and then.

"I should ask for triple pay and even hazard pay for this. I can even ask for mental harassment benefits from this doctor." Lana jokingly said with a crumpled face.

Chad chuckled and said, "His life is on the line, Lana. As much as I have understood him, he doesn't care so much about himself, but he has people he cares for, so he's doing his best to stay alive for them, if not for himself."

Then Chad looked at Lana and asked, "Once you fall in love you will then understand how much you want to keep safe and wish to live for the one you love."

"Why, Chad, are you in love now that you seem to understand his dilemma easily?" Lana backfired the question with a mocking grin.

"Just finish that and get up and change soon." Chad mumbled before walking out from Lana's sight, because he knew no one ever won a fight with that woman who never ran out of words to throw back.

Lana stood up and went back to her room. Being busy with helping out Xander actually helped her a lot to cope with Liam's extended absence. Until now, she still had not heard anything from him.

Every now and then she would look at her mobile phone to see if there were any messages for her and to try calling Liam once in a while, but unluckily there was still nothing.

She grabbed her mobile phone and called Jorge.

"Did you hear anything from Liam recently?" Lana asked on the other line.

She heard Jorge exhaled loudly and replied, "You two… Oh gosh, what's going on? Liam called this morning to check on the office only and inform that he will not come back yet. I'm confused already. How come he's not calling you directly?"

Lana bit her lip as she said, "That's good then. It means he's well. Nothing to worry, Jorge. We have some misunderstanding, but it will be over soon."

"Can't you two meet there since both of you are in the same country."

"Yes, we will, Jorge…" Lana answered and gave her regards to her father-in-law and Miley before she ended the call.

She heaved a frustrated sigh and murmured, "He's calling Jorge to check only the company. He knew I would ask Jorge about him. He wanted me to know he is well."

She could sense it… Something was really off.

She wanted to trust her husband like he said the last time they saw each other, but she could not help the pain stinging her heart. She was in a broken state, though she stood tall in front of other people.

She only hoped that Liam was really safe, no matter where he was. She already asked Chad to find out Liam's whereabouts in the country, saying she suspected that Xander's opponent might get the man's service since he was the best candidate, but until now there was still no progress of their private investigation.

"Oh, God… I will definitely punish my husband severely after all these things are over…" she mumbled as she exhaled loudly and changed her outfit.
