Alejandro and Robert were celebrating, clicking champagne glasses for their success. Nothing felt better than seeing the shocked expression on Jeremy's face when he saw them at the meetingWhat was juicier was when Nathan showed them the legal papers of his new position in the company. Although some were against what happened, many stood with him“Now, time to think of a way to get evidence against those jerks,” Robert said and sat on the chair, as did Alejandro. The entire time, Nathan had his eyes fixed on the computer screen.“He erased everything from the system, I should have known this from the start,” Nathan muttered as soon as he finished going through the company files. He was certain that Jeremy deleted all the files which incriminated him“He's shrewd, every last bit of evidence we gathered was destroyed just like that,” Alejandro added, knowing full well Jeremy was a step ahead of them. Just when they thought they would catch him in action, he turned the tables against the
Nathan shifted from side to side. Watching as the doctor examined Laura. Her eyes were open, and she regained consciousness, but she wasn't saying anything What happened for her to be like this? He was accused of poisoning her, he didn't do it which meant someone else did it. “She'll be okay, I prescribed some medicine for her… please ensure she takes it in time,” the doctor said and handed Nathan a prescription, he took it and scanned it for a while before shoving it in his pockets“Doctor I need you to do all the necessary tests on her… I want results,” Nathan demanded while escorting the doctor out. If he wanted the Larson family to suffer, then Laura had to be on the list. He didn't want her as a vegetable but fully awake, so he could show her just how much he suffered during his childhood, “You don't have to worry, I already took some blood samples earlier… The lab is walking on it. As soon as the results are out… I'll let you know,” the doctor said with a smile and walked ahe
Nathan stepped out of the car, adjusted his coat and glanced around. Some men lined up for him at the entrance to welcome him, as well as some employees. By now he was certain all the employees were afraid. Afraid of getting fired by him“Sir, everything is ready…do you wish to address the employees?” Robert asked Nathan soon as he entered the building, and they proceeded towards the elevator“Not now, ask Alejandro to deal with it,” Nathan said as they entered the elevator. Robert nodded and waited for the lift to reach the destination. Soon it came to a halt, the doors opened and Nathan stepped out, followed by Robert. They didn't even reach his office when Nathan saw Jeremy with Mark Kim talking. Immediately they saw Nathan, Jeremy picked up the bucket and grabbed the mop and was about to head the other way when Nathan stopped them“I see, when the boss isn't around…employees sit around to do nothing…manager Kim, may I know what you are doing here,” Nathan said with authority and s
Nathan cupped Laura's face and kissed her deeply. Her hands slipped into his hair and held him in place as she kissed him backWith the right intensity, with a desirable longing that she couldn't get enough of. Tears flooded her closed eyes as both were lost in each other's passionHis body was pressed against hers, roaming his hands all over her body. Nathan cradled her in his arms as she came up on top and straddled his lap“Hey, hey, relax” he coaxed as he cupped her face gently. She ran out of breath; hence he broke the kiss. Laura snuggled her face to his hand. Loving his warmth. Nathan didn't move but let her feel himBetween them, the level of emotions was high, he felt warm liquid dripping down his hands and he knew what was happening. “That's enough now,” Nathan muttered when Laura's tears-filled eyes opened. Licking her dry lips, she sniffed a little and nodded. “I'm… I'm okay,” she whispered, despite how hard she was trying to bite back tears and stop the pain she was fe
Laura stirred in her sleep, as much as she wanted to sleep for the rest of the day she had to pretend as if she were crippled or something “Hmm, are you awake,” she mumbled in a sleepy voice and moved a little and planted a kiss on Nathan's shoulder since she was half lying on top of him.“It's cold…why don't you sleep,” the man mumbled as he stirred a little. Laura snuggled back on him and smiled. She felt sore after a passionate night. But she was happy as she drew circles on Nathan's back. He shrugged her away, but Laura ended up hugging him even tighterShe didn't understand why she was happy, but having Nathan in her bed made everything so colorful “If you don't stop…both of us will have a problem,” Nathan mumbled and slowly turned around and lay on his back with Laura on top of him. Both were completely naked, Nathan reached for her face and tucked her hair behind her ears. Laura smiled and kissed his hand“Good morning, are you feeling good?” Nathan asked while caressing her
After two weeks of fake therapy, Laura finally decided to stop it all. Despite Nathan asking her to stay in bed and never leave. She couldn't handle it, it was another morning at the Larson mansion that was less lively, Camila was not having it. Just a day of doing chores around the house meant for servants has her feeling as if she had been ran over by a train multiple times All she wanted was for her sister to get well again, so she could get the company back and everything they owned that Nathan took from them“Sis, just…just like at my hands… I look awful,” Camila cried out while showing Laura her hands. “Even my hair is so stiff, and tangled… Sis come on, just get up and teach that hostile man a lesson,” Camila added as more and placed in front of Laura. She was done and tired of being treated like a servant,” Camila said and stood right before Laura“And you want to?” Laura asked and fixed her eyes on the computer screen. Camila glanced at her sister with disbelief in her eyes,
Nathan made Larissa lie on the couch when he asked someone to get him some water. He didn't know what happened to her all of a sudden. She was failing to breathe and when he suggested calling for a doctorShe said she was okay “here, drink more water,” Nathan coaxed and handed her a glass of water“T-thanks Nate… I'm… I'm so sorry to bother you, “Larissa stammered as she tried pushing herself up, but ended up falling back, Nathan caught her and helped her to sit up. The entire time she couldn't help but lean against Nathan “Mrs. Harrison, let me call your husband… you don't look well,” Nathan said and moved away from her when she grabbed his arm and stopped him“Don't bother Nate… it's pointless,” the woman whispered, and sat upright. Nathan didn't bother. However, he was concerned about her health“Is everything okay?” Nathan asked hesitantly, he didn't understand her at all. Nathan knew she was Laura's friend, it was strange how she was treating him. Especially her behavior was rat
“Larissa, I don't understand?” Laura said with a confused expression when Larissa said something she didn't understand. Larissa smiled and poured herself more champagne, while Laura sipped from hers. It was a wonderful afternoon and both women were sitting in the garden enjoying a beautiful day, chatting over champagne and some snacks. “If he can forge your signature to take everything you own… Laura how can you still keep him around,” Larissa explained exactly what she meant, it was simple? Someone tried to harm her friend and no one was doing anything. On the other hand, Laura shifted in her seat from side to side. “Nathan is my husband, Jeremy is the one who tried to sabotage my company… I didn't have him arrested because he's my brother,” Laura countered back disdainfully, she only let Jeremy go because her mother begged her not to do anything. However, she decided to let Nathan teach Jeremy a lesson and making him scrub floors and clean bathrooms at the office were his punishme
