Lana couldn't help but smile as she reminisced about her past as she continued scanning the photo album of their wedding ceremony.
She recalled how she first met Liam in a funny encounter wherein she had stolen a kiss from him just to save herself from an unwanted marriage.
She was still lost in her thoughts when strong hands slid on her waist, hugging her from behind.
Her mind was very occupied that she failed to notice that Liam had already sat on the bed, next to her.
"Hmm, Love, why are you smiling like a fool? Are you happy seeing how gorgeous your husband was during your wedding day?" Liam shamelessly asked her with his teasing voice.
He planted a soft kiss on her right cheek before placing his chin over her shoulder. Lana, on the other hand, pinched his hand while rolling her eyes because of her husband's shamelessness.
Liam just bit her shoulder as an act of revenge.
"Ouch! Stop it, Liam! Or you will sleep outside our room tonight!" Lana complained, threatening him.
Liam just chuckled and apologized to his beautiful wife.
"But kidding aside Love, we will create more memories together with Lanabelle as we watch her grow up."
"I will buy tons of photo albums which you can fill in with many photos with Lanabelle, you and I," Liam said, his eyes glowing with love and joy.
This time, Lana nodded her head with a smile. She liked Liam's suggestion.
"Hmm, I would love that. I want to capture every moment with you and with Lanabelle."
"Do you think our daughter will follow our footsteps and become a successful lawyer like us?" Liam asked her out of the blue, talking about Lanabelle's future.
"I don't know. It depends on our daughter. I don't want to decide on her chosen career. Let's give her the freedom to choose what she wants to become in the future. If she wants to be like us, I will not object. If she wants to be a doctor or choose another profession, it is also fine with me." Lana expressed her thoughts with Liam.
Liam bobbed his head. "You are right. I also agree with you. We will just be here, supporting her in her decision. Our main task as her parents is to take care of her, fill her with our love and raise her to be a better person."
"I am sure she will grow as a fine and strong lady like her beautiful fierce mother," Liam added, complimenting his wife.
Lana let out a soft giggle. "You really know how to flatter a woman!"
"Hmm, you are wrong, Mrs. SY. I don't flatter women or any other woman. All these compliments and flattering words are only intended for my one and only woman, my wife. And that is you, Lana Huang Sy!"
Lana couldn't help but blush at his words. Nothing changed. Liam could still make her heart flutter easily.
"Sigh, you are getting better with your words, Mr. Sy! I don't know what to say."
"Oh, I don't need your words. Why don't you show me through your actions, Mrs. Sy?" Liam whispered to her ear meaningfully.
Lana gasped when Liam tightened his grip on her body and started kissing her neck.
"Hey, you are making the moves again, Mr. Sy." Lana tilted her head to look at him helplessly.
"You know what Love, why don't we make another baby so that Lanabelle will have a sibling and a playmate too!" Liam suggested with a cheeky smile on his face.
Lana just glared at her husband. "No! You are just telling me this to get a score from me tonight!"
But Liam didn't want to take no for an answer. He released Lana from his tight hug and turned her around so that she would now be facing him.
Lana was taken aback upon seeing the seriousness on his face.
"Lana, I'm not kidding. Can we have another baby?" Liam said, putting on a puppy-eyed look while biting his lower lip.
"This time I want to have a baby boy!" Liam added.
"He can protect Lanabelle once he grows up. My son will also help me protect his mother away from those pesky admirers of yours!"
Lana: "..."
'Eh, What admirers is he talking about??!'
Liam continued speaking, still convincing Lana.
"Though he is younger than Lanabelle, he can serve as her big brother and a friend who will become her protector against those unworthy men who will try to pester our beautiful daughter! Lanabelle is not allowed to have a boyfriend until she becomes 20! Or maybe 24!" Liam declared to her with so much conviction.
Lana didn't know whether to cry or laugh for her daughter Lanabelle. It seemed that her father would become strict and protective when it came to her romantic relationship.
"Alright! Stop talking already. Lanabelle might wake up."
"Do you agree now, Love?" Liam asked her expectantly.
With a blushing face, Lana just bit her lower lip before nodding her head.
"Yesssss!" Liam screamed through a whisper, afraid that Lanabelle would be awakened by his voice.
Without further ado, he pounced on Lana, pinning her down the bed while sealing her lips with a passionate kiss filled with love and yearning.

Others said that the scariest thing about love was opening yourself up to it. When you did that, there was a chance that you might get hurt.
Since you were afraid of getting hurt, a person might unconsciously be preventing someone from getting close to him or her.
In the past, this was the case between Lana Huang and Liam Sy, both stubborn, proud, and fierce.
Strangely, both of them had similarities and things in common. One was a man-hater and the other one was a woman-hater.
So who would have thought that they would fall in love with each other and end up being together?
Well, this was the work of the law of attraction in love. Fate had its own plan for both of them, letting them experience a whirlwind of romance and the roller coaster ride of love.
After taking the risk and fully opening themselves to love. They manifested the love that they wanted. And they found love as beautiful as theirs. It all started in just one stolen kiss!
