As presumed by Frank, Mark returned to the mansion the next day and told grandmother all that happened. She couldn't believe what he said."I'm saying nothing but the truth grandmother. That worthless piece of rag, Feran said you should come over yourself since you …" Mark went shut when ma'am Miguel raised up her hand when he tried to convince her to believe him."You know it's solely your fault. Things got messy all because of you, Mark," ma'am Miguel accused, trying not to flare up at him. "I'm sorry, grandmother. I actually went over to see Laura to resolve this issue but…" ma'am Miguel shunned him again by lifting up her hand and she sent him away. She was stunned after hearing what Mark told her that Feran said. She sat in the living room and slidded into deep thoughts.She felt a pang of hatred for Feran and regretted why she hadn't take a serious action to cast him away from the family since he became a part of the family. While she was still in dero thoughts, a maidservant
Feran wasn't impressed by grandmother's threat. A grin exposed her set of white teeth knowing how affected Feran was by her words which sounded like a threat to him."Grandmother, I know the risk of riling you but I'm not bent on doing that. I know you could do what you just said. But it would also cause you a great loss to Miguel family, your family. So, I'm sure you wouldn't just throw the deal with F.A Globe company to get back at Laura's family. I just want you to take Laura seriously, that's all. And if I offended you in any way, I'll apologize," Feran said. Ma'am Miguel's sudden grin became deeper. She knew Laura's parents weren't capable of thinking of any way to piss her off for their mere gratification and neither would they dare to pull off this shit, so it must all be Feran's idea. He is the brain box behind it.She decided not to say anything much but simply smiled and asked:"Where's my granddaughter, Laura?"At that moment, Feran's phone rang. It was Laura calling. He p
"So, grandmother really came here?" Laura asked Feran in great astonishment when they got into their room after Feran and her parents had told her everything that happened in her absence. She still couldn't believe it all."Yes, Laura. She did. You shouldn't be this surprised. Remember I told she was likely to, right?" Feran said with a smile.Laura grinned and clasped her hands. She rolled her eyes and slumped on the bed feeling so happy. She felt her stomach churn in felicity and she went silent for a while, leaving Feran to stare at her."Feran, all your overhope just came to pass. You said Mark was going to come shd he did. Then grandmother…she actually came today. Your plan is working," Laura commented.Feran blushed. He was happy to see her this happy."You don't need to worry much onwards. Things will go well, Laura," Feran assured.Laura nodded. She arose and was about to walk up to Feran standing a meter away from the door to hug him when her mother, Mitchel walked in without
Ma'am Miguel was a little thrilled too when she thought about the secret heir. She couldn't start imagining how much wealth the person who got the grandeur mansion. "Do you know the person who really bought the grandeur mansion?" Ma'am Miguel asked her son, Frank after he walked up to her when he was fine making the announcement. "Um…no, mother. The person who called and gave me the results just said it was an anonymous person that bought the house," Frank said."Mother, that person who bought the house, the anonymous one must be a representative of the Anderson family that sent those expensive gifts on your birthday party," Frank's sister said as she walked up to ma'am Miguel's seat."Thar Anderson family," ma'am Miguel said and paused. She squinted and tilted her head. "I don't really know much about that company. Why haven't I been informed about their tremendous reputation all this while?" She asked, feigning annoyance. "Well they've just been on a low key all this while. But I
When Laura had finished exchanging pleasantries with some business partners ma'am Miguel introduced her to, she glanced back and saw Feran walking off somewhere and Mark was glaring at him with hot eyes filled with loathe. She wondered what could possibly have happened between them. "Let's go over to my table to have a brief discussion," ma'am Miguel proposed after waving at the last business partner of their company whom she sighted. "Um, okay. After you, grandmother," Laura said. Ma'am Miguel walked ahead of her. They got to her table and sat down. "Laura, you know, I've always been proud of you my dear. Even when your late grandfather rashly married you off to that worthless Feran, I still knew it won't hinder you from shining brighter than a star in the sky in the future. Now, I'm certain you'll do greater things for our company," ma'am Miguel said. "I'm so glad to hear you say that, grandmother. I mean it," Laura said with a smile. She had despised her grandmother for a while
Laura's friend, Irene was bewildered by what the woman said and she prepared herself to bash at the woman with her words."It's normal and expected that one trys things on before buying them otherwise what would happen if they dont abd they didn't fit?" Irene asked, looking to take the woman down with her question."Then if they don't fit just throw them away," the woman replied and shrugged"But I understand that women like you can't afford to live like that," the woman added, sarcastically."You must have lose your sanity," Irene spat. She was furious. Laura who hasn't said w word, sighed."Hello, I would like to buy that outfit," Laura said to the girl at the counter and gently took the outfit from the woman's grasp."Hey! If you sell off the outfit to her I would leave and wouldn't set my foot in this store again let alone consider buying a thing from your store, including the ones I've chosen. I won't buy any if you sell the outfit to her," the woman threatened the girl."Oh_oh.
"What's wrong, man?" The bold man asked, funnily when he saw the uneasiness on Feran's face as he roughly searched his pockets for the third time. Not wanting to waste time, Feran disappointedly flicked a stare at Laura."Laura, I'm sorry but I don't have the card with me," Feran muttered.Laura's face became tense upon hearing what he said. No, this can't be happening, she said in her mind. She can't be facing such a huge disgrace again and this time it would be Feran's fault."Oh my, what's going on here? What's with the silence?" The woman asked Laura, snapping her finger at her."Has your supposed darling husband suddenly gone bankrupt? Or has his card been stolen in a matter of seconds?" The woman asked, mockingly."He was making big talks just a few minutes ago but now he can't even utter a word," the bold man ridiculed Feran.Laura wished the ground would just open and swallow her in a wink of an incense. She couldn't bear the humiliation so she gently dropped the outfit on th
Laura battled with her emotions as the taxi driver drove. She was using every fiber in her to fight back her tears. She didn't want to suffer any more embarrassment by breaking down in a taxi because if that happens, the taxi driver would definitely know and maybe the headline - Great ma'am Miguel's new supposed favorite granddaughter cried in a taxi. Then if the reason behind it is dug in further, everyone in the city will get to know the sort of humiliation she faced in a store today, all thanks to her loser husband, Feran.She didn't saw this coming. Though after her mother has attempted to stop her from taking Feran along, she'd felt a bit uncertain on their way to the store but shove it off the next minute, saying to herself in her mind that she was overthinking things and Feran has become a different person in her life now."Feran isn't worth it. If you remain married to him then you're jeopardizing your bright future." Those words of grandmother repeated numerous times in her e
