Lana inwardly sighed, seeing the wench once more coming after her.
'How come she can't get enough?' she tiredly mused. She was in no mood to waste anymore energy and time with the crazy obsessive woman.
"I see you somehow managed to steal a gown from somewhere for the party." Rio Tang tried to startle her, barking loudly, but Lana did not comment at her, instead she kept acting as if she did not see or hear anyone. Rio tried to provoke Lana a little more with her insulting words but Lana being the person she was, kept her cool and treated her like thin air.
Rio Tang went more crazy due to being ignored by her and very soon the elevator reached the parking lot and Lana quickly went out of the elevator. She furiously followed Lana and pulled her hair. "You b*tch! You think you're someone better than me and can claim your right on my Liam? He is distracted by your tactics and he will soon quit playing with you also!"
Lana got startled when Rio suddenly pulled her hair but immediately gathered her military instincts and in a swift and fast motion grabbed Rio's wrist and swirled her body and head while gripping Rio's wrist hard, making Rio wince in pain.
"You're really asking for it now and don't blame me for what I am gonna do to you next, huh? Because you asked for this!" Lana mumbled as she looked at the CCTV's position. She then pulled Rio to the side, then gave the woman a sounding slap with her other hand. Lana slapped her on the other cheek also, and even then she was not satisfied.
Rio moved her other hand and tried to hit Lana, but Lana was fast to grab it also and pushed Rio hard causing her to fall on the ground.
That was the scene when the elevator opened and Liam walked out to. His jaw dropped seeing the entire view and knew Lana had shown her fighting prowess to an ignorant fool. He clicked his tongue and had more admiration for Lana in his mind then.
Seeing Liam coming out of the elevator, Rio thought to drag down Lana in his eyes and so she wailed and cried pitifully and yelled, "Ouch! Lana... Why are you doing this to me? I just had a small dance with Liam and that too because you left the party because of your ex-boyfriend. Why did you slap me and push me like this? Don't you trust Liam at all to be so furious at me?"
Lana's eyebrow raised with the sudden acting and irrelevant dialogues of Rio.
'This woman is really unbelievable!' Lana snapped.
She understood then that there could be someone standing at her back and so Rio was intentionally trying to put her in a terrible spot to make her look evil.
She turned her head to look back and see who was there, and it was Liam who stood there looking at her deeply and then at Rio with snapped eyebrows.
She was about to explain herself so Liam would not misunderstand but before she could spurt out her words, Liam quickly rushed towards her side and held her by her shoulders, checking her with concerned eyes all over.
"Are you alright? Did she hurt you? I told you to be careful, right?" Lana's jaw dropped as she blinked several times, hearing such gentle words from him and looking at Liam's worried face.
Rio Tang slumped back on the ground when she heard his words.
'I was the one who fell down, how could Lana be hurt? It was clearly me who deserves his attention.' Rio wanted to scream.
Lana, who was still swallowing his tenderness, gulped and unconsciously shook her head and muttered, "I'm perfectly fine, and you know I am pretty good at fighting so don't worry."
But then what happened next was too unexpected and even Lana was left speechless by Liam's actions.
Liam cupped her face with his hands and gave her a passionate kiss.
Lana "...?"
Rio Tang screamed out of anger and cried more loudly.
...…...
Lana was dumbfounded and her mind went blank with that unexpected, mind blowing kiss by Liam. That kiss landed so fast that she didn't know when her hands raised up and rested on Liam's shoulders. Like a puppet she followed his lead and got engaged in that fiery deep and passionate kiss that Liam initiated.
While she was still trying to straighten her thoughts, her eyes and ears were again welcomed for the feast of the day.
Liam pulled out of the kiss after a while and he then hugged her tight and turned towards Rio. Still keeping Lana wrapped in his arms, he looked sternly at Rio Tang as if he was ready to punish her.
"I hope this would be the last time Miss Tang, when you even tried all this. Let me make things very clear to you, it is impossible between me and you, because you are definitely not my type. I tried to be at least cordial with you but you repaid my kindness by constantly bullying my woman. You forgot, bullying my woman is equal to bullying me."
Liam's eyes were glaring with anger and Miss Tang had never expected Liam to talk that rudely with her. Liam continued with his threats. "If you once again try anything stupid to get on the skin of my woman, I swear you will have to pay a real heavy price for your actions, and trust me, you will hate me if I lose my temper and show you your real place."
Liam then added, "You must be thankful to my woman for not suing you for all the bullying and threatening that you have done to her, else your entire career and life would be ruined within a few hours. Make sure you understand and cram that into your mind." Liam threatened with eyes piercing at Miss Tang.
Lana gulped because even she got scared by that stare from the man. But she was glad Liam finally did that. Sometimes such women would not stop because the concerned men did not put them to their places. Being a gentleman would not be an excuse for them. Sometimes, you have to be harsh to end things like this.
Liam then turned towards Lana and removed his coat to put it on her shoulders, then he held her hand and said, "Let's go."
Rio Tang was turned into a statue and each word Liam threw towards her chilled her to her bones. When he covered Lana with his cat and went away, her eyes were akin to a devil's burning in rage. If she could kill with her eyes, the couple would have long been dead.
With gritted teeth, she snarled after they were out of sight, "You two, will have to pay for this! I Rio Tang will make sure to burn your pride and humiliate you cheap b*tch, just you wait!!" The humiliation was too much for her to take as she stood back on her feet.
