Laura's parents were greatly shocked upon hearing what Laura had said, especially her mother Mitchel. She couldn't believe her ears. Her mouth was agape and her eyes popped out, staring vaguely at Laura. Laura herself was still in a bit of shock from what she learnt about today and she was not surprised to see her parents in such a state of shock. "L…Laura,tell me you're joking," Mitchel said, still in shock. Laura narrowed her eyes and shook her head as her mother walked up to her and grabbed her arms. "Say it? Say you're just pulling our legs and what you had just said was false," Mitchel urged but Laura looked away. "Say it!!" She yelled at her face, startling her husband. "It's the truth, mother!" Laura said and flinched. "Feran is the CEO of that new company and…" she paused as she tried to reason some things. "Yes. I get it now. How he managed to help me to get that deal before with no much stress, how he assured me that the deal would be mine,the promises…gosh, he actually

Zita sighed as Zoey stared on at her, she could sense the impatience with her due to the silence that had lasted for almost a minute between then after she had closed the door. She spun and exhaled. "It's all my fault, Zoey. It's truly my fault. I never treated Feran like a son and I regret it. Zoey, I damn regret it. I rarely stood up for my son let alone supported him. I always succumbed to what my father-in-law wanted and I hid behind Leo's shadow because I never wanted to go against him. I was scared of going against him. My dear got the better of me and turned me into an insensitive person,worst of all, an inconsiderate mother to Feran. But I blame no one other than myself. Feran is acting cold towards me and I deserve it. I turned him to act differently towards me." Zita paused and sighed again. She flicked away the drops of tears that dropped down the corner of her eyes and sniffed as she whirled to face Zoey. She continued. "Back then, when Feran was a kid, did you know he lov

After ma'am Miguel has gone off sight, Frank's sister arose to speak. "Do any of you suspect that Feran is something more than just a 'by chance- CEO of a notable company?""Everyone stared surprised at her until Mark chuckled and arose to say something."Dear Aunt. I can't believe you're thinking like this or shouldn't I just confirm this before I come to a conclusion." Mark gave a brief pause and narrowed his eyes at his Aunt. "Are you actually thinking that good-for-nothing…""He is a C.E.O, mark, and I don't think you're that stupid to have forgotten that," Laura interrupted harshly with the aim of provoking her brother whom she felt was showing less concern about everything that has been happening maybe because he thinks he wasn't going to be affected by the situations cropping up. Mark glared at Laura and slowly held up his clenched fist. "You better don't interrupt me when I'm speaking again, Laura. I won't tolerate you disrespecting me so casually, got it?" He warned Laura

Laura couldn't believe what her mother has just said but Mitchel has something else in mind. Mitchel took another quick look at Feran who was doing a good job in pretending like he didn't know them. "Mother, we need to go," Laura said. "I don't have a good feeling about us shopping here now…" "Why?Because your ex husband is here? You know it's pathetic," Mitchel said, almost yelling. "Mother, you know I already didn't like us coming to shop here. So what're you talking about?" "Just forget it and let's go up and pick some outfits for the party tomorrow, okay?" Laura glanced up and met Feran tucking his phone into his suit jacket pocket and he walked away after glancing at something above his shoulder. "You see, he's gone. I learnt that the men's section is on the fourth floor. So you don't need to worry about bumping into him," Mitchel said. "Mother, he didn't go to the men's section. It's that way, right?" Laura asked, pointing at the staircase up by their right. "It's the way

When Laura arrived home with her mother, she walked into the house first and collapsed on the sofa, not noticing her father, Frank who was actually seated opposite her, lost in deep thoughts. Mitchel walked in some seconds later with a gloom and Frank confirmed in his mind that something had gone wrong. He gave his wife a questioning stare when she crashed next to him on the couch and she sighed, staring at Laura."What happened?" Frank asked. No one gave an immediate answer which doubled his puzzlement. His worries suddenly increased when Laura spoke up."It's all your fault, mother. It's really your fault," Laura had said, almost yelling as she tried to fight back her tears. Frank brows furrowed and he darted his eyes to his wife whose lips had parted."Hey, dear, what are you talking about? How is it my fault?" Mitchel asked with a gentle voice which shocked her husband a bit. Frank, without knowing the whole details yet about what Laura was talking about knew that his wife is prob
