The Law of Attraction

Meanwhile, at the table where Sarah, Abram, and Kenzie were talking, Sarah could not help but notice how her twin brother kept on blushing and giving Kenzie sneak glances.

She had already guessed that her brother seemed to have a crush on Kenzie but he could not even manage to start a conversation with Kenzie whenever they were together. He would just answer Kenzie whenever she would ask him something.

'What an idiot… Will he win over Kenzie if he just kept glancing like that and answering? Can't he even talk on his own?' she mused as she shook her head in amus.e.m.e.nt.

She wanted to help her brother but Kenzie seemed to be determined in running after Daryl. She could see how Kenzie's eyes would sparkle whenever she would mention Daryl's name.

It looked like the eyes of a woman in love. Kenzie was also smiling lovingly like a lovesick fool whenever she thinks about him.

"When will you leave the country?" Sarah asked her twin brother nonchalantly.

"You're leaving?" Kenzie asked and Abram only nodded with a timid smile.

'It's time to talk!' Sarah wanted to scold her brother. To her disappointment, Abram did not even bother to open his mouth anymore.

Rolling her eyes, Sarah could not help but scold him, 'So hopeless!'

"So, how's your first day with Daryl?" she asked, hoping that her brother would get the clue and would try to talk to Kenzie. Her brother must know that the woman he was admiring had already set her eyes on someone else.

Kenzie blushed as she replied, "I think it will be tough but as I said earlier I will definitely win his heart. I feel like he is giving me a hard time because he thinks that I'm not serious about pursuing him. But I see some good signs so I know he somehow likes me too..."

"Huh?" Abram unconsciously gasped. Sarah shrugged her shoulders and said, "Kenzie is on fire courting the love of her life…"

"What?!" Abram shouted in shock.

Kenzie chuckled and teased, "Why? Is it your first time hearing about a woman pursuing a man?"

She knew she was too vocal about it but she thought that there was no need to hide it. She knew who she wanted and it was Daryl. She was even proud to announce it to the whole world especially if it would help her to mark him as her man… Well, future man!

Abram gulped, he was speechless when he heard her. He liked Kenzie a lot. She was his type of woman. How unlucky was he that Kenzie was already eyeing another man.

'Damn it!' he inwardly cursed. He had not approached Kenzie till now because he felt that she was still young…

'Oh damn!' another inward curse came from him. He felt like he was already too late looking at Kenzie's expression. She was smiling so beautifully while she seemed to be imagining something… maybe that man!

Sarah let out a mocking laugh as her gaze pierced her twin brother who was obviously disappointed with what he heard.

"You should stop working your ass off in the company brother. How can you get a girlfriend when you're always busy? I mean you're all packed to go on a business trip again.

Geez, make sure to meet a good woman there… and learn how to approach your target and sweep her off her feet in one go. These days… the early bird catches the worm..." Sarah teased.

"Exactly! That's why I'm pursuing Daryl instead of waiting for him to do it!" Kenzie proudly butted in.

Sarah chuckled as she shook her head. She grabbed her phone and quickly focused the camera on her twin brother and clicked a picture. It was his priceless expression.

Abram's face crumpled and said, "I will excuse myself and start playing golf or else my twin sister will never stop nagging and teasing me…"

Kenzie nodded and smiled at him.

"I envy you a lot. It must be so nice to have a sibling to tease and joke with," Kenzie said to Sarah while she looked at Abram's back as he walked towards the golf course.

"Well, yeah… It is indeed very nice since we love bantering a lot. I feel bad that he can't meet a good person just like you… I would love to have a sister-in-law like you..." Sarah genuinely commented.

Kenzie chuckled and replied, "And I would love to have a sister like you too. I know that Abram is a nice man. I'm sure he will meet someone destined for him soon but I'm not that woman since my heart is already taken and it belongs to Daryl. I'm really sorry Sarah. I guess We have to remain as sisters even without me getting married to your brother…"

"I guess so. Hopefully, you succeed in wooing Daryl soon. Wait, I will brief you on the coming trial. You should inform Daryl of the trial's schedule. I will also remind him since he is a witness. I will make sure that those bastards and everyone else involved will stay behind bars for many years," Sarah said with a clenched jaw.

Kenzie touched Sarah's hand on the table and whispered, "Thank you…"

Sarah grinned and said, "You can thank me later once those morons are convicted…"

"Well of course it's a separate thank you. How nice would it be if you were still working in Sy Law Firm while I'm there," Kenzie babbled.

Sarah gave her an awkward smile. She did not tell Kenzie the real reason why she left Sy Law Firm. Kenzie had always been honest with her, telling her almost everything.

She wanted to do the same and tell Kenzie everything but the timing was just off for her. Maybe she would tell it to Kenzie some other time.

But Kenzie noticed the change in her expression so she asked, "What is it? I told you… You can also tell me everything just like I do with you. I feel like there is something inside your head that's troubling you."

Sarah smiled and then said, "Yeah maybe I should tell it to you know. You see Liam kicked me out from Sy Law Firm because I did something overboard…"

"What?" Kenzie gasped.

Sarah's shoulders dropped as she narrated what happened.

In the other table, Mr. Chua felt sad seeing Abram leave Kenzie's table early. 'It seems like these two don't have any interest in each other?' he thought, a bit confused because he had noticed how Abram was glancing at Kenzie several times. Maybe he was wrong to give meaning to it.
