"why should I go with Leonard's brother and Crish's father? wouldn't I be able to go alone if I just came to the official event that my grandfather held? " Lana asked, to the father who is now sitting right by his side, accompanied by a warm Rosella tea presented in front of them
both now feel in the backyard of the rental house owned by Samuel, if you ask where the other residents ? They know enough to let their kids have time together.
Jeffrey smiled faintly, his hands raised to gently caress his daughter's delicate mane
"Lana know, right ? Dad won't let Lana do much on her own, including coming there, and Leonard's parents are best friends, instead of the bodyguard that you send and Lana is not comfortable, what's wrong if you trust Lana to come with an acquaintance who you also know, right? after all, neither of them objected to father's request"
Clearly gently, Lana nodded her head in understanding, leaning her head on the shoulder of the father, I don't know it feels like there is an unpleasant feeling that is making him depressed at this time.
"Mom will come too ?"
"Of course, your mother misses her beautiful daughter very much, of course she won't miss the chance to meet you tonight"
Lana smiled happily, she also missed her mother a lot, some time the woman who had given birth to her was full of busyness, so it was very rare for Charlotte to meet with Lana, Lana, the young girl was completely dissatisfied just by exchanging a short message to her mother, she was really longing
"Lana... "
A gentle call from Jeffrey makes Lana look back at the father, with her pretty round eyes, which are exactly like the wife's
"You promised me ?"
"What is that ?"
"If there's something later, believe me in Uncle Samuel, he'll also introduce you to someone named Clifton, just trust in both, Lana understands ?"
Lana is not a child, she is an intelligent teenager who has lived lovingly from both parents, undergoing growth without being missed a bit from Charlotte and Jeffrey, Lana knew when Jeffrey asked her to promise this time, it wasn't just an ordinary promise, there was something the father couldn't explain to her.

"Lana you look so pretty!" said Claire who just helped the sweet prepare for tonight, Lana was including someone who did not think too much about her perfect appearance, he will wear clothes that he feels comfortable and should not always look good, but still whatever he wears is always suitable attached to his ideal body.
now Lana is paying attention to her appearance now on the mirror in her room, not wrong to ask for help Claire, Canadian fashion girl was not in doubt
"Thank you, you've helped me enough tonight"
"No problem, it's the obligation always helps, ah yes Lana— "
Claire stops her speech, leaving Lana staring confused as Claire appears to pull something out of her jumpsuit pocket
"Wristbands ?"
"Yes, do you want to wear it ? It'll be useful for you later on "
The sweetie blinked her eyes at the silver bracelet, it looked like an ordinary bracelet, with a simple rose carving, she felt it was okay to wear what Claire had given her, again got just a bracelet he thought
"That's a bracelet that looks pretty, of course I want to wear it"
He said happily, making the Canadian-born girl reply with a manjd smile, then immediately put her bracelet on Lana's wrist.
"Is it done ?" The two turned their heads, to find Leonard who was standing at the doorway, looking at the cute girl who was wearing a soft blue dress, with a hairstyle that was so fitting, and so, thin makeup that is very suitable on her asian face, because after all Lana is of Asian-American descent
Beautiful, very pretty.
"Alright princess please walk out first "Lana put on a sulking face, when Leonard called her so, but Leonard just laughed a little at his response, he patted the girl's head slowly, Leonard, and immediately ask Lana to walk first
"it's a miracle, a Leonard laughed because of a woman, had Chris seen it! "
Leonard put a lazy face on his friend
"stop talking useless things and walk your part"
"you're really mean to me ".
The luxury building owned by the Lyxander family has been seen crowded with invited guests who attended the event tonight, he said, some commented on the matter of great master Xander who did not playfully prepare a party for the success of his son, so magnificent and festive
Leonard appears to get down first from the driver's seat, indeed he is driving the car tonight, walking towards the driver's side door to open it and help Lana down
"I can open it myself" the sweetie said with a hint of ketus, but did not cover the reddish hue that was present on his lips, making Leonard pull a line of smiles, while Chris only shook his head to look at the two
"Lana..."
Leonard removed the gentle gaze that had been emanated as he looked at Lana, his legs reflexively being a step ahead of the girl, mister Xander was clearly aware of that, but he chose not to care too much about it and looked back at the grandson
"You've grown so well into a very beautiful girl, I'm sure Jeffrey and Charlotte have educated you very well. "
Lana smiled awkwardly, lowered her gaze so as not to look directly at her own grandfather, I don't know that friendly-looking gaze, a foreign look in her eyes.
"Come in, your parents will be here any minute"
"Good grandpa..."
"God I really miss that call from you"
Lana smiled again, then started taking steps to enter the building, followed by the two, looking like a personal bodyguard, but on the one hand made some women who saw the two handsome young men feel amazed, some even said they wanted to be in Lana's position to be protected
It's a pity, ladies, please dream all you want.
"I'm going there, looking for a drink "chris said getting a nod of understanding from Leonard, letting the young man now walk away from Lana and Leonard
"Are you not comfortable in a crowded place ?" Leonard asked, seeing how the sweet one seemed disinclined to be in the party crowd
"What does it look like ?"
"You look like a frightened rabbit in the valley in the middle of nowhere"
Lana bends her lips down, staring sternly at Leonard who equates her with a stray rabbit.
"Lana, don't put on such an expression, many will fall for you" and it's the first time a Leonard has given such a lamentation, which makes Lana bend her face even more
"you're not very fit to make that disgusting appeal Leo, focus on Mr. Jeffrey and his wife arriving in the yard"
The voice with the tone was heard in Leonard's ears, ah Claire seemed annoyed when listening to Leonard's conversation to Lana since earlier, through a small tool tucked in the earlobe of the handsome young man, who was very upset, chris also wears it
"Well Claire, please keep a good eye on the outside movement with Aland"
Said Leonard quietly, replying to Claire's words through the earpiece.
"Lana darling"
Charlotte called softly, approaching her only daughter, Jeffrey just smiled watching from behind, how now Charlotte who was hugging Lana lovingly and longing
"Lana misses mother" the sweet said in a spoiled tone, groaning her embrace on the body of her dearest woman
"Mother too, Lana ate well right ? Sorry if you rarely visit or give news to Lana, there are some needs that you can not leave"
"It's okay, Lana understands"
Charlotte gave her sweet smile, rubbing lovingly the cheeks of the kingpin belonging to her daughter
Leonard now gave a moment's formal greeting to Jeffrey who replied with a smile
"you look good at Lana Leonard, where's Chris?"
"he was going to take uncle's drink"
The adult man gave a light pat on the young man's sturdy shoulder
"If anything untoward happens, just take care of my daughter, she's our precious jewel" Leonard nodded without hesitation, without asking, there's a feeling that drives her to protect Lana, I don't know what it is.
"Mr Jeffrey, great lord Xander asked you and your wife to be on the main podium"
A servant came to them, said politely, asking Jeffrey to follow him, Jeffrey nodded in understanding, his gaze clashing with his wife, until Charlotte looked back at Lana who seemed reluctant to part
"Well you know Lana's mom, right ?" The sweet nodded, Charlotte smiled as she gave a warm kiss on her forehead
" Then, Lana has to promise mom, huh ? Live well, live well according to what Lana wants, do not believe in just anyone, even if it's your own family, yes baby ? I really love you so much" Lana did not understand, why her parents made her promise without cause all of a sudden, looking into the mother's gentle eyes, but Lana still did not get any answers
All he knew was that, the uneasiness that he had felt since noon felt increasingly real, staring at how his parents were now walking side by side towards the top of the podium, where cheers of applause from the guests began to fill the large hall, Lana felt, she would lose for something very precious to her.
"Leo it's me Chris, there's a movement that's gone wrong, I just got a report from Aland, keep Lana by your side! "
Leonard was silent for a moment after Chris reported it, before suddenly he felt something very stuck, the corner of his eye caught something surprising, something surprising, without warning he immediately pulled Lana into his embrace
"Lana's down! " and after that a hail of bullets fell upon the great hall of the feast, leaving the shouts of those who had no preparation whatsoever
