Laura had a blank expression as she gave orders to Robert and Alejandro. The two men exchanged questionable glances. Especially Alejandro, who was both Larson's family lawyer and the company. He knew how much Laura had worked her entire life.“I want everything in order…any mistake made, you'll be fired,” Laura remarked with authority, Robert wanted to protest but kept quiet. Alejandro was caught in a predicament. He didn't know what to do or how to handle the matter. It seemed his boss was angry“Everything will be done accordingly, rest assured,” Alejandro agreed with a bow. Laura didn't answer him, “And yes, schedule a meeting with Jared as well as Bernardo… tell them it's urgent,” Laura added and again Robert was confused. Nathan had everything under control. The company was regaining its good reputation back. So, why was lady Laura making such drastic decisions, “Jared is up to no good. He claims to want a stable relationship with Larson Enterprise ls…but it's for his selfish
Elizabeth and Claire were at each other's neck, the two women had always been hostile toward each other. And letting their children get married was the biggest thing they ever made.With no one in the living room to interrupt them. Claire and Elizabeth were free to express their hatred towards each other."Don't act like a saint Claire… we all know… you are not as innocent as you seem," Elizabeth remarked disdainfully, he was aware of Claire's dirty secrets, she appeared like a Saint and a wonderful mother. When in reality she wasn't. Claire on the other hand wasn't bothered."Your daughter is hurt Elizabeth, aren't you ashamed…even if you hate my son so much…take care of your daughter, " Claire said sincerely, she was disappointed in Elizabeth. Even if Laura was expecting a child from Nathan. Elizabeth didn't have to treat her with so much disdain"You have no right to tell me what to do…I only let you here for the sake of it Claire…I'll have the guards throw you out!" Elizabeth lash
“I'm the boss, you better show some respect,” Laura said cheekily and crossed her leg over the other elegantly. She was irritated with Nathan after what he did.“Lady, have you forgotten I'm the boss…and your husband," Nathan grinned and slowly stripped off his coat and carefully placed it on the couch, and proceeded to Laura sitting behind the desk.“Husband my foot…mom was right, you can't take care of me,” she scoffed disdainfully, she agreed with Nathan's mom for scolding her son. He didn't work hard to protect his wife. Nathan pouted and showed her the place. Laura frowned as her eyes darted around her office, and Nathan winked at her playfully and showed her some cards. She tossed them away once she read the seductive content.“What's this huh…” Laura frowned at Nathan flirting with her, of course, Nathan knew what he was doing. It had been a while since he smiled at Laura; hence he filled her office with all sorts of exotic flowers. Laura didn't stop blushing. “My lady, all t
“Boy, I have my reasons for calling you here,” Bernardo stated while getting up as soon as Larissa and Claire left. Nathan was still in a daze as he attempted to help Bernardo to his feet, but he stopped him before he could.“I'm fine now,” Bernardo said as he balanced on his feet. Unlike before, he didn't feel his legs go numb while standing, and his chest didn't tighten.He felt refreshed and more energetic. There was no pain or failure to breathe. Nathan scanned the man before him and saw improvement. He looked healthy.“Seems mom worked wonders…old man, you look much better,” Nathan remarked with satisfaction and Bernardo let out a sarcastic scoff and walked away heading to bookshelves near the sitting area.“Your mother is an angel, too bad she can't save other people," Bernardo said while taking out some files from the shelves. Nathan crossed his arms over his chest and stared at Bernardo with suspicion in his eyes.“Don't even try it, it's not good to look at your friend's wi
"What can I get for you?" The waiter asked professionally with a low bow and Nathan's gaze lifted to Laura. She bit her lower lip in confusion and stared at the menu."And…what will you have?" Nathan asked, hoping the woman would finally pick what she was going to eat. "I'll have whatever you'll have," Laura said after a while and the waiter looked confused. Nathan's eyes narrowed for a while then smiled and glanced at the waiter."Just give us your speciality, " Nathan said feeling helpless and the waiter nodded."Okay sir," the waiter left and Laura took a sip of water and looked at Nathan questionably."So…what's with this," she said, gesturing at the place they were in. Nathan let out an exhale and glanced at the fancy five-star restaurant he brought her to. He felt like bringing Laura on a date just the two of them."Is it a crime huh, it's a beautiful evening…enjoy your day," Nathan said, raising a glass of wine and clicking it with Laura's glass. She smiled and nodded. The pla
Larissa smirked as she stepped aside and let Dean come forward. Dean was 25 years old with the demeanor of a mature man. Although he was young, Larissa knew Dean was ambitious. He didn't rush things, but took his time in achieving his goals.He was into construction, although he hadn't had an opportunity to take care of his father's business. Other than that, Larissa knew she once disliked Dean because Bernardo favored him more. Especially when it came to company matters.In the past, she made sure Dean was not allowed to do anything related to company affairs. However, now Larissa had a change of heart.To top it up, Dean was looking calm. It was hard to overlook how imposing he was, from his predatory movements“May I know who this one is dad?” Dean asked more calmly, there was no anger on his face. It was hard to know whether he was irritated or not. Which made it impossible for anyone to read his mind. However, Bernardo knew his son very well.“Why do you care, son… I thought my c
Nathan only had one thing to do, and that was a man of his own. He had to depend on his capabilities and build his empire. Working for Laura would only label him as a weak husband. Laura was powerful, she had her empire. If he continued following her around. People would always disrespect him.“Do you want me to come with you?” Laura asked, feeling concerned. She woke up early to help Nathan get ready. After a week of thinking about the offer, Bernardo gave him. Nathan finally agreed. It was morning, and he was getting ready to go to the Harrison company. “I don't think so… I'm okay,” Nathan said as he chose the wristwatch he would wear. Like Laura suggested, he went for a slim-fit navy-blue suit. Some Oxford shoes and he was good to go.“You can take Robert… I don't need him for now,” Laura said while helping him with his necktie. Nathan smiled and felt relaxed knowing Laura was supporting him. Despite everything, the woman turned out to be a good wife.“Sweetheart, that's so gener
Nathan described Dean's personality as too calm and thoughtful. Looking at him, Nathan had to say the man knew when to talk. Even when he was upset, he didn't dare show it. Anyone would think he was just saying his opinions randomly. But Nathan could sense anger in his voice and harshness to his words.Bernardo sat in his chair as the board members said their opinions. Of course, the majority were against Nathan taking over so suddenly. Some thought he was a stranger and Dean was the right person to take charge of. Some thought neither of the men were qualified because they just came to the company. “This is our livelihood….this company has existed for years…as the board…we want an efficient boss…someone knowledgeable and can lead us to success," an elderly man said as the entire conference room was in utter silence. His name was Mr. Richardson. According to Robert, whispering things to him. Mr. Richardson had been partners with Bernardo for years. He was wealthy and a great business
