Chapter 304: Good Luck To Me
Chapter 304: Good Luck To Me
At Country V
Liam helplessly slumped on the couch of the living area of the condo unit he was staying in after receiving an important report from his men.
"What's wrong?" Ryu looked at the complicated emotions on his face and asked. He and Liam were together in the living room, finalizing their moves to bring down Yun.
"Lana… She is going to represent Xander Yang…" he weakly whispered. Ever since he found out Lana left on an official trip suddenly, he asked his security to investigate where she had gone and why. Just this morning they confirmed to him that Lana was staying at Quan Territory.
He called Keira and also confirmed that Lana took Xander's case… the case Yun was up against… and he would represent Yun in that case…
"What?!" Ryu burst. He was glad Shawn was not around or else he would feel more burdened knowing that Liam's wife had also ended up getting entangled with the matter.
"Oh God, Liam… What are we going to do now?"
Liam heaved a frustrated sigh and muttered, "Keira has assured me about Lana's safety because her husband, the military and as well the two clans are all at Xander's side."
It was at least a consolation for him that Lana was representing the good side.
Ryu patted Liam's shoulder and added, "Yes, and we too have something as well, so don't worry. We will succeed in our plan since everything is on our side."
Ryu's mobile phone then rang, so he excused himself from Liam for a while since it was the security leader on his island.
Liam felt so weak. He did everything so Lana would not get entangled in this dangerous situation, but still…
Another frustrated sigh escaped her mouth.
"Do you want to see Lana for a short while?" Ryu suddenly asked as soon as the call ended.
Liam looked at Ryu, confused…
"I'm actually surprised at this coincidence, bro. Xander's wife is staying at my island. You haven't met her before, but she was the one I told you whom we brought back home and introduced as our cousin. My men informed me that Xander will be there this midnight since his father's wedding will be held there tomorrow. He was together with a woman and a man. It so happened that the woman accompanying him is Lana…
That island has very tight security and Lana's arrival there is very discreet and confidential since she is with Xander. Yun is not aware of their every movement. If you want, I can immediately arrange a flight for you there… You can explain Lana everything without Yun's eyes and ears…"
Liam's face suddenly lit up with the probability of meeting with his wife as he said, "Yes, please. Arrange for me to fly there. I want to see her."
Ryu chuckled and nodded, then he added in a tease, "But you should be ready to defend yourself… I heard she's a good fighter and I will bet you will receive one big blow once she sees you."
Liam suddenly became nervous because his dear wife would surely kill him on the spot after everything that happened.
"Yeah… Good luck to me," Liam whispered.

At Quan Territory, At Country V
The dates for the trial had been set, and Lana hoped that they could gather everything and enough facts by that time to counter all counter replies of Xander's opponent. Lana and Xander together with Chad double checked every single detail because not a single detail must be missed out.
"You will be flying back to country D tonight, right? I will also go with you. I heard that island is an enjoyable place. Let me stay a few hours relaxing while you attend the wedding," Lana bluntly stated.
"You should go too!" Lana invited Chad that made him laugh.
"You sound like you own the island. Inviting yourself and now inviting me." Chad commented.
Xander shook his head and said, "You two are becoming more clingy to me with each passing day. Alright, let's all go. Besides, it's an important event because my parents are getting married and of course I'll get to see my life, my wife after a long time. I doubt if you two can enjoy the place in that short span of hours though?"
"That's okay. Me and Chad are used to it. It's just like going on a quick mission with a nice view. Oh, I need some fresh air!" Lana blurted while she stretched her arms. It's still early. But her back was already aching while reviewing certain rules and regulations on Mirage Law.
She looked at Chad with sympathy. Chad seemed to have noticed that and asked, "What?"
"Nothing. I suddenly thought how heavily burdened your future can be once you win the presidency elections. Taking care of the whole country and this secret triad thing together is nothing easy for sure." Lana commented and Xander nodded in agreement.
"I feel like Chad will grow old alone," Xander bantered with a grin. Then added, "You surely won't have a love life with so much of work to eat your time"
"You're not updated, Doc. You'll see soon…" Lana hung on her words with a calculative chuckle.
"What's that? You sound like you know something is coming..." Chad asked in suspicion.
She heard from Keira that Mara was in serious training to follow Chad soon here. She should not spoil the fun, so Lana shook her head and kept her mouth shut.
"You two, pack your stuff and be ready in time, we will leave this evening if you want to go with me, don't be late." Xander reminded them before grabbing some documents.
"Wait, isn't the wedding tomorrow?" Lana reconfirmed. Chad grinned and answered, "He is going to give a surprise to his wife, of course. We will be back too as soon as the wedding is finished, that's why he wanted to travel as early as he could."
"Are you Xander? Why are you answering when I'm asking him?" Lana mumbled with a twisted mouth.
Xander grinned at the two. One thing he was grateful for was being with these two that was helping out in lightening the mood, though they were all in great anxiety for the tight war they would soon face.
