"I'm so sorry… I…"Laura was nervous as she tried to put the photo frame back on the table when she missed and the frame fell and shattered on the floor"O didn't meanwhile go on her knees to pick up the frame and the broken glass when Nathan beat her to it"It's okay" he muttered shoving her hands aside and carefully picking up the frame and placing it on the nightstand "You shouldn't touch those… I'll ask for a vacuum," Laura said when he was about to pick up broken glass pieces with his hands"I'll take care of it, don't bother, "Nathan said without even looking at her. There was something about Nathan's change of behaviour that bothered Laura. He was angry but was suppressing it.Soon Nathan left the room leaving her wondering. Shortly the door opened and Nathan walked back in with a brown and a dustpan "Let me have it" she insisted taking the broom when"Lady… why are you being so nice huh… this isn't your cup of tea… I'll fix it, ``Nathan said, looking at her with a frown. She
Nathan was stunned to see the factory, from the exterior to the interior. He had never seen something so sophisticated before. It was larger than anything he had ever seenHad efficient active workers doing their jobs. He could say it was the largest manufacturing plant he had ever seen..he didn't know the woman had such a treasure in her graspIt was a complex consisting of several buildings filled with machinery, where workers manufactured items. He had a chance to see the Warehouse-like facilities that contained heavy equipment used for assembly line production"Wow, it's beautiful" Nathan was more than impressed, it turned out the lady lived up to her reputation"I don't usually come here…that's why I let my workers do the needful…"Laura said once they left the control room. Nathan nodded in amusement. He was more than happy to work for Laura. She was an intelligent woman. She ran the company better than some men wouldIndeed she was the iron lady of Huston"But is it really neces
Nathan was damned to listen to the men yelling for him to go backHalf of the building was in flames. The entire place was filled with smoke that no one could see who was who. Despite how the fire was being put out. He already entered the area, unfortunately, with the security men running around getting the workers out, Nathan was irritated. She couldn't see anyone bringing out Laura. Or did she manage to get out, the building was being evacuated. And there was no sign of Laura or Jeremy"Damn it," he muttered once he managed to get closer. Four more unconscious men were brought out and placed on the ground away from the buildingNathan rushed to the security men hoping to get any answers"Sir please get out of the way…it's dangerous in there" one of the men shouted when Nathan rushed to them"Where is your boss…did they get lady Laura out, "Nathan asked dragging the man by the collar"Please sir…we are trying everything we can to save everyone""Is lady Laura out of that damn buildin
A day passed after the fire incident occurred. Nathan had successfully rescued Laura out of the fire. She wasn't harmed severely although suffered some burns"Just because you saved my sister doesn't make you some hero," Jeremy said sarcastically when Nathan came downstairs to get some warm soup for Laura. He asked the servants to prepare something for Laura however Patty wasn't around hence he decided to make himself"I'm sure he wants us to praise him…such a pathetic man he is"Camila too chimed in. Both brother and sister blocked Nathan's way. Jeremy was not happy with how Nathan was carrying himself as though he cared about Laura"Just know this means nothing to us… already uncle fired you from the company…my sister is still unconscious…pack your bags and leave"Jeremy said with a warning glare. He was happy her uncle came back just at the right time to take over the company. Nathan was good for nothing"This man is naive… if you want to stay here then…why not join the servants beca
The first thing Nathan did when morning came was fresh up, get ready and head out. After what he did with Laura. He was feeling guilty. The fact that he couldn't control his urges bothered him. Hence he took his truck and drove straight to the police stationHe had a few things to discuss with Carl. The two men were sitting in Carl's office as usual. "I can't do that… if none of the Larson family members filed for this then my hands are tied" Carl said sincerely. He was a man of the law. What Nathan told him made absolute sense unfortunately he couldn't just charge in and carry out an investigation"You are a cop… just make up something and do this investigation…I'm sure that explosion was deliberate," Nathan said feeling irritated, for a whole two days, he had been thinking. Putting things together and he came up with a conclusion. The explosion at the factory was planned. Carl stared at Nathan without blinking. The man seemed to be in a bad mood"And who do you think was the target
Francisco was someone Laura didn't talk about much, he was not just handsome but successful as well. He didn't have a family but only a little sister and a four-year-old daughter. She didn't want to go into details about his personal life. He was 45 years old. "You didn't tell me… at least I deserved an invitation, "Francisco said with a half smile, standing before Laura's bed, the man was good-looking. He wasn't some powerful CEO or anything but a man who had risen to the top with his hard work. He was calm and collected. Laura loved that about him. His personality was everything, no wonder he had a tail of women lining up just to be part of his life"I didn't think it was necessary," Laura remarked sincerely, it was true. She didn't owe him any explanation, especially what she did in her life. "I see, so does this mean our friendship is over," he said with narrowed eyes, Laura glanced up at him and saw sadness in his eyes. Of course, he had to show his unhappy face. "I'm sure you
"Has anyone told you… how handsome you are?""Umm, well…""How sexy and hot you are… ooh man I just wanna… just wanna…" the lady whispered while biting her lower lip seductively, Nathan cleared his throat awkwardly and ate his food"What? Are you shy huh… aww so cute" the lady added, nearly touching his face when Nathan shifted away from her. As if it wasn't enough that they hated him, another Larson had popped out of nowhere and was busy flirting with her"Ma'am… please I…""Sweetheart, do I look like a Ma'am to you? I'm a beautiful young elegant woman… tell me… what's your name?" the lady said with a frown and tried to feed him chips. Nathan swallowed hard and shifted away again. To be honest he didn't know how he woke up to this"I'm Nathan…Laura's husband, "Nathan said, emphasizing the husband's part. The lady frowned and rose from the chair."Whatever… I mean aren't you too young to be that granny's husband… or are you just blind," she said as if frustrated. Nathan knew the woma
"How did you meet her… how sure can I be that… you don't have bad intentions?"Francisco asked as soon as he got a chance to be alone with Nathan. Of course, Nathan was used to people questioning his relationship with Laura"People get married… I don't think anyone has the right… to say anything "Nathan replied turning to look at the man. He wasn't so pleased to see Francisco. Especially when he saw how free he was with Laura. Something didn't add up"You didn't answer my question, Mr Dawson… Laura is a good woman with a heart of gold… unfortunately when it comes to men… she tends to be a little naive" Francisco remarked as he walked to the table. Nathan was bothered by how free Francisco was to the wall around his office. It seemed he and Laura were so close that he could do whatever he wanted "That's none of your business… I'm sure we both know Laura is old enough to make her own decisions," Nathan said with a little irritation in his voice. He hated men who tried to involve thems
