The Law of Attraction

Chapter 592: Secure And Comfortable Life

Kenzie could hear the cursing of the men and she shook her head with an evil smirk on her face. Those bastards… She would make sure they rot in prison if they would not reflect on their wrongdoings.

Sarah followed Kenzie and Kimmy together with Kyle, who was also present to watch Sarah in action.

Kenzie stopped as she paused outside the door of the courtroom, seeing Daryl standing there as if he was waiting for her. He was staring deeply at her.

"Congratulations…" Daryl whispered. Kenzie's lips curved into a beautiful smile.

When she was too close to Daryl, she removed her crutches and handed them to Kimmy then she suddenly pounced on Daryl and wrapped her arms around his neck for support.

"I heard that you have worked hard too in making sure I win in this trial… Thank you, Daryl." Kenzie whispered, hugging Daryl tightly as if she was getting and recharging energy from him.

Kyle was astounded and looked at Sarah, with raised eyebrows, who whispered, 'It's a long story…'

He knew Daryl, who was a known lawyer at Sy Law firm and also Liam's closest friend. And he had also met him twice when the man met Lana while he was a paralegal in Lana's independent firm.

"I think we should leave and head out first inside the car," Kyle whispered and Sarah agreed so both quietly passed by Kenzie and Daryl. Sarah was feeling grateful that his slow twin Abram could not come or else he would be devastated to witness his crush in the arms of another man.

Kimmy stayed, even though she was uncomfortable standing near the two like a third wheeler. Kenzie might need her since her crutches were with her.

But she gulped, seeing how Kenzie's one hand raised and moved as if signaling her to leave as well.

"Ohhh…" Kimmy was fast in getting her hint and so she immediately left the site and followed Sarah and Kyle with the crutches still with her.

"It feels great…" Kenzie whispered, burying her face on Daryl's neck, sniffing his fragrance.

Daryl's hands raised to pat Kenzie's back but he halted.

"How's your ankle?" he asked softly instead.

Kenzie loosened the hug and pulled herself a bit to look at Daryl.

"Two more weeks and the doctor will remove the cast after that," she said with a smile.

Daryl looked around and whispered, "I think we are gaining too much attention. It's the Department of Justice Kenzie."

He noticed some bystanders were also looking at them.

"Oh yeah, sorry…" Kenzie whispered. She turned her head and called, "Uhm Kimmy…"

Daryl looked around and said, "I think they all went ahead first…"

"Oh, but my crutches are with Kimmy," Kenzie naively whispered.

"I'll carry you. Where is your car parked?" Daryl asked.

Kenzie nodded but said, "Wait, my phone is vibrating…"

She picked her mobile phone that was in her pocket and acted as if she had quickly checked a message, making sure Daryl would not see her mobile screen with the angle she was holding it.

"What?" she mumbled.

"Why?" Daryl asked.

"Let me call Kimmy. She messaged me saying they left first…" Kenzie whispered and quickly dialed Kimmy's number.

"Yes, Kimmy? What? You guys left first? No… I'm not sure if Daryl will be available. How long? Alright, I will just call butler Mark for a driver if Daryl is not available…" Kenzie said in the other line and soon ended it after making sure Kimmy understood her dialogue.

Kimmy's mouth was agape when he put down her mobile phone.

"Is that Kenzie?" Sarah asked. Kimmy nodded and said, "You two should go ahead first. I will take a ride with the boys. Boss won't ride with you guys, she will go with Attorney Cha and we will follow their car.

Sarah nodded and Kimmy quickly got out from Kyle's car to join the car of other bodyguards in disguise.

"We will have to follow Daryl's car. Boss is going to ride with him," Kimmy instructed as soon as she was inside one of the back-up cars.

Meanwhile back to where Kenzie was, Daryl looked at her and said, "It's alright, I'm free so I can drop you off."

Kenzie smiled and signaled Dary to turn around. Daryl did so and bent a little as he waited for Kenzie to climb on his back.

While walking towards the parking lot where his car was parked, Daryl asked, "What's going on Kenzie. You look worn out."

"Kenzie heaved a sigh. How she wished she could do all the things together. Preparing for the CEO position and being with Daryl as well, but she knew she would get distracted and she really wanted to focus on mustering everything involving the company at that point.

"I need to take care of the company. My dad is ill Daryl, so like you said before, I need to be more responsible at this point. I really wanted to pursue you and keep on with what we agreed but for now, I think it will be better if we postponed it. Like I asked Kimmy to tell you, I will need more time before I am able to follow you again.

You are a free man so I don't want you to feel a burden because of me. That proposal I gave you which you agreed to last time, can be considered invalid and unnecessary now since I had a change in focus. I want to please my dad Daryl. He has a brain tumor and he needs to undergo surgery as soon as possible, that too can only give a 50% success rate for him to have a normal life without any major complications.

Now, I understand why he was in a hurry to marry me off to a reliable and responsible man he thinks could protect me no matter what. But, I want to choose the man whom I marry based on what I feel, so I decided to be mature and prepare so that I can protect myself on my own.

I'm now preparing for a battle with them, Daryl, to keep my right in the company because I witnessed how my father shed his blood, sweat, and tears to establish it just to make sure that he can leave everything for me once he left this world, making sure his daughter will have a secure and comfortable life."
