"Hold still damn it"Carl snarled when Nathan didn't sit still but kept moving and throwing tantrums. Of course, Nathan was bound to be angryThe wounds on his back were nothing compared to what lady Laura did. She trampled over his dignity and pride as a man"That witch is asking for it… don't blame me later" if she wanted, she could ruin the world for all she cared. "Stop it okay… this is nothing compared to what she can do… Nate for once stop being stubborn"Carl tried to reason with Nathan. He was as stubborn as hell. "Do you think I'm a toy… what sort of rubbish, if you are her lap dog I'm not"Nathan snapped, he hated that woman and after what she said to him. His hatred for her was even stronger"Is this about the marriage proposal… Why not agree to it? "Carl said and patched up Nathan's back? He would be in pain for a few days. The wounds were deep however Nathan didn't seem to mind"Are you insane… do I look desperate"Nathan now knew Carl was a confused man. How could he say s
"Mom… you don't have to do this okay?"Nathan said, scratching the back of his head. It was another day. He didn't sleep as lovely as he normally did and it was all thanks to lady Laura"I would have loved to give it to her myself… unfortunately the doctor said I need to rest, "his mom said innocently. Nathan was trapped. He woke up early so he could do some work. But now his mom was giving him things to do"She's not a good woman… Why did you trouble yourself… keep this food and flowers here" Nathan said and prepared to leave when his mom stopped him. Turning around Nathan was helpless"Nate… lady Laura is a good woman… she pardoned us… she didn't take our home okay," his mom said cheerfully. Nathan hated to say no to her. However, he was in a hurry to meet one of his friends. The day was crispy. After so much drama, he wanted to loosen up"I don't think so… mom just don't ask me this"Nathan said running his fingers in his hair. His mom was asking him to take the special food she prep
"Why do I feel like… you are that witch…who doesn't want young men to live?"Nathan asked sarcastically, Laura scoffed and shoved a black file at him. Nathan scanned it with vivid eyes. How did he get himself in such a messOf all men in the world, the witch targeted him"Look here… the scene with Harris and Carter… have you forgotten?"Laura said, getting up from her chair. Crossing his legs, Nathan picked up the file "they want to sue you… make you rot in prison" Laura added and half sat on the desk. Nathan flipped the pages from the fail. His eyes narrowed suspiciously"I saved you, Nathan… I shut those old men up with just the snap of my fingers" Laura said, snapping her fingers. Nathan glanced up and met with the lady's mocking gaze. Shifting from side to side. Laura smirked pridefully"Is this how you trap all men… everyone knows what you do… marry men they die… or are you bored of old men and want fresh blood? "Nathan said, glaring at her. Laura let out a mocking chuckle and clim
The Larson family was getting ready to meet the man Laura said she was going to marry.Jeremy was agitated as he paced around in his room. The entire week he had been wondering. Putting little pieces together to solve the puzzle"Could it be… that old fool!"Jeremy muttered, clenching his hands tightly. He didn't know who his sister was marrying this time. She was better off alone. These men she wanted were only after her moneyThinking up here. Jeremy would wait to meet the man. Dinner has been prepared. Leaving his room, he met Camila on his way downstairs"Bro let's just hope it's that old fool," Camila said as they walked towards the stairs. She wasn't going to allow some other men to take advantage of her sister. Laura may be older and more knowledgeable, however, when it came to men she was naive"Let's hope…where's mom?"Jeremy asked wondering if his mom managed to get the money back from her club"Already downstairs… supervising… it's a shame… the so-called son-in-law won't joi
Nathan didn't bother about the stares he was getting. For one thingThe food didn't taste as good as his mom's food. The chicken was undercooked. Nothing tasted better. He was having trouble eating, secondly the people sitting with him. Didn't stop staring at him as if it was a show."What do you do for a living?"Elizabeth was the first one to fire the question. With ease, Nathan glanced up at his soon-to-be mother-in-law. They look like drilled holes. With a smile, Nathan cleared his throat"He's an engineer… talented and brilliant"Laura answered before Nathan could. The entire family shifted their gaze from Laura to Nathan"His family background… When did you meet him and how… what's his net worth" it was Jeremy who chimed in gawking at Nathan. The look he received from Laura was enough to shut him up"Jeremy, that's not necessary… all you have to know is that… Nathan will be part of our family soon" Laura said with a smile and unexpectedly grabbed Nathan's hand as he rested on the
The day of the wedding came. Nathan was sick and tired of the press swarming his house like beesAsking him questions, he owed no one an explanation about his private life. Even his family was constantly stalked by the mediaNo moment of peace for his family, at some point he didn't think it was a good idea to involve himself in Laura's affairs. The woman was sick, he hated the idea of being tied down to such an arrogant woman. However, for his goals. Nathan was ready to endure it allFor his family's sake, he was going to be someone's husband. Not something he was ready for but like Carl said. He was doing it for the greater good"Wow, didn't know you can pull off in a tux meow more Nate" came Carl and walked around Nathan. Scanning him from head to toe. Carl smirked mischievously. He was aware of how good-looking Nathan was. "Is this necessary?"Nathan said disdainfully while tugging at the bowtie he was told to wear"Stop that… it goes with the rest of the outfit… it makes you look
"Mom… why are you not stopping this?"Camila whispered, hating every minute that passed by. Elizabeth didn't utter a word. Her eyes fixed on her daughter, busy ruining her life. It was a shame she had no say in Laura's lifeHer daughter was rebellious and never listened to anyone"You think I didn't try? Elizabeth whispered back, still keeping a low profile. The priest was taking his time reciting the vowsElizabeth frowned seeing how anxious her daughter looked. She was never like this even when she got married the first time"I even asked the media to poison this"Camila muttered feeling frustrated. The urge to walk up to the altar and scatter everything kicked inWhy was her sister so lucky? Looking at the groom he was a total package. Hot and sexy, with a to-die-for personalityThe last time he came wearing a bad boy outfit however now. He was in a tuxedo. He looked way hotter than Camila frownedThe guy was her type, Laura disliked such men so why was she marrying? "Please say aft
Laura was pacing back and forth in her study room. Dressed in a long satin wine red nightgown. Two servants stood in front of her with their heads bowedThis wasn't happening, she just married that man and he disappeared into thin air. She had so many rules to lay down so Nathan could understand"How dare he… Who does he think he is?"Laura muttered angrily. Stopping in her track, her gaze shifted to the two helpers standing before her.Laura continued pacing scaring the living daylight out of the two servantsThey knew any better than to move when their boss was angry. It was late at night. The lady of the house was supposed to be in bed, however, she was waiting for her new husbandShortly just as Laura was about to leave the study when the door opened and Patricia walked in"What happened?" she asked scanning Patricia who looked rather nervous"Ma'am… sir is here," Patty said with a low bow and Laura remained silent. "And where is he?""Well, I did as you told me… I guided sir to t
