The Law of Attraction

Chapter 603: Childish

Chapter 603: Childish

At Chua Mansion

Kenzie felt so tired that night, she fell asleep as soon as she finished eating dinner. The next morning, she woke up early and prepared for her usual routine.

Since it was the weekend she had given her trainers a day off but she decided to not go out but study on her own instead. She just did not want to miss any details she needed to know before she faced all the board of directors.

"Mistress Kenzie, you have a visitor…" one of the helpers said.

"Who?" she asked.

"Attorney Daryl Cha," the helper informed. Her heart almost stopped beating due to shock.

"Seriously?" she asked in disbelief and the helper nodded.

"Let him come here," she instructed the helper and also asked her to bring some tea for her and Daryl.

Soon Daryl entered and Kenzie offered him some tea. Daryl looked around and saw all the books and papers she was working on.

"You are really preparing well and working hard…" Daryl commented.

She had a timid smile as she replied, "Yeah I have to. By the way, why are you here?"

The last time they were together, Daryl seemed to understand her situation when she subtly told him that she needed to focus on the company and would not be able to bug him since she would have no time for him. She was really surprised by his visit but her heart was really happy and rejoicing at that moment.

"You lost weight Kenzie," Dary commented.

Kenzie touched her face and bashfully replied, "I guess so."

He still did not tell her the reason for his visit. It seemed to be unlike him.

"I missed you Kenzie," she heard him whisper in his sweet tone.

"Huh?" Kenzie gasped, wondering what was happening.

Daryl walked towards her and leaned down to kiss her lips.

'What's going on?!' Kenzie silently cried. She was confused but her body instinctively reacted to Daryl's bold move. She wrapped her arms around his neck and indulged herself in a passionate kiss.

She missed him so badly too that she did not want to question him anymore herself. She had waited so long for the kiss to happen once again. His warm lips on her soft and supple lips, devouring it like she was a very delicious delicacy.

She felt Daryl's hand roam around her body, making her moan while she chanted his name.

"Daryl… Daryl… I miss you…" she hummed lovingly.

She was losing control when she heard a loud cry, "No! Stop!"

What was that sound? Why was there a woman shouting and disturbing her and Daryl's sweet moment together?

Kenzie inwardly cursed as she opened her eyes. She sat annoyingly, realizing everything was just a dream and the loud noise that interrupted her wonderful dream was the television that she left running when she dozed off to sleep.

"Seriously?!" Kenzie annoyingly mumbled as she rested her head on the headrest. She missed Daryl too much and that was probably why she dreamt of him. She heaved a long sigh and grabbed her mobile phone. She had taken a lot of stolen shots of Daryl while he was working so she smiled looking at them.

"Are you behaving well huh?" she whispered. It took a lot of self control for her to not?contact Dary using her new number because if she started doing it she knew she would not be able to stop easily.

She looked at the wall clock. It was just nine in the evening. She slept for almost two hours after eating dinner and her body, which was still exhausted, felt sleepy.

She wondered how Daryl was doing lately. She heaved another sigh before she went back to sleep.

*****

Daryl just got home after picking up Lufa to his pet sitter. Lufa jumped off him as soon as they entered his apartment. Daryl tiredly sat on his couch and heaved a long sigh as he stroked Lufa's fur who sat beside him.

"Is she really so busy that she even changed her number so as not to be disturbed?" he whispered with a sigh, referring to Kenzie.

His?phone rang and he quickly answered it seeing the caller ID.

"Did you find anything suspicious?" he asked. He was bothered about what Liam and Jorge told him regarding his father so he secretly had someone check up on him.

"Sir, something is suspicious. The security is very tight around the mansion and one of the helpers said that no one can go to your father's room except for your stepmother and stepbrother," the man on the other line reported.

"Alright, continue to monitor everything and report to me…" Daryl murmured. He clenched his fist as he relayed further instructions before he ended the call.

"What is going on?" he whispered. He?decided to meet his father just as Liam and Jorge had suggested. Something was really suspicious and he was determined to look into it.

He stood up and went to his bedroom to clean up before preparing to sleep. While he was lying on the bed he grabbed his phone and scrolled through social media, particularly Kenzie's accounts.

There was no new posts since the day Kenzie quit her work. He scrolled through her feed and smiled unkowingly when he saw how cheerful Kenzie was in all her posts.

He read the comments under her posts and?his face soured seeing a lot of male commenters. He annoyingly put the phone on the bedside table and switched on the television instead.

Minutes passed before Daryl grabbed his phone once again and created an anonymous account where he typed a reply to all those annoying comments…

[You guys all can dream on! She's too good to pay attention to losers.]

[If she's not posting anything then she's probably busy so don't disturb her!]

[Give her some space idiots!]

He saw some haters so he replied to them as well.

[Don't judge her since you don't know her personally!]

After sometime Daryl shook his head and questioned, "Since when did I become so childish, wasting my time fighting with strangers on social media?"

He annoyingly put his phone back on the bedside table and buried his face on his pillow instead.
