Nicholas' POVShe smiled shyly at me and, without warning, leaped into my arms. I staggered momentarily due to her weight and the suddenness of her jump, but I managed to steady myself before wrapping my arms around her.She hadn't given me a reply yet; I wondered if the hug was meant to be a yes. She held onto me so tightly, pressing her head into my neck.I patted her back softly and asked, "Should I take that as a yes?"She pulled away slightly from me to get a glimpse of my face, nodded, and said, "Of course, it is a yes, Nicholas.""Great!" The restaurant's workers were looking in our direction, eager to know her response. Most of them were already aware of what was happening; they knew I had planned everything to propose to the love of my life. Not wanting to exclude them from sharing in our joy, I called out, "She said yes!"There was a loud cheer from them, and Laura looked in their direction, smiling. I took her hand and said, "Thank you for accepting to become my girlfriend.

Laura's POVI waited for her to speak, clueless about what she wanted to say. Deep down, I knew it would be something I wouldn't like at all."I want to meet him. Please bring him to me," she said."Mother!" I snapped. "You know I can't do that just yet. It's still too early.""What's still too early?" A deep male voice came from behind."Nicholas!" I shouted. "You startled me." He laughed and wrapped his arms around me."You haven't answered my question," he added.I heaved a sigh and glanced at my phone; my mother was still on the line. "It's my mom. She wants to see you," I replied.He stood up straight. "Then let her see me. Is there anything wrong with that?" I looked at him quizzically. "Are you sure about that?" I asked."Of course," he motioned with his hand as he whispered, "Is she still on the line?" I nodded, and he took the phone from me."What are you doing?" I questioned, attempting to retrieve the phone from him. He placed it to his ear and said, "Hi, Mother. This is Ni

Laura's POV "You don't know? Huh, Nicholas is going to make your night unforgettable. Just get ready, and after what he did for your mother today, you better cherish and appreciate him, give him the best of your love...""Sonia!" I snapped."What?" she teased. "I'm just advising you. Endeavor to hold onto this man now that you've found love. Only then can I continue enjoying this good life."I laughed heartily and stood up from the bed, intending to playfully chase her for what she just said, but she was too fast and dashed out of my room before I could catch her. I just shut the door behind her and went back to my bed."Silly, naughty girl!" I thought. If I didn't know her so well, I would say she only wanted me to stay with Nicholas because of his money and what she stands to enjoy by sticking around. But Sonia is not like that, at least not towards me. She has my best interests at heart. She is one person I trust will fight for me behind my back and move mountains just to defend m

Laura's POVShe went and hugged him too, and then finally she hugged Sonia, asking her how she has been since it has been very long since she saw her. It was probably about 3 years now since the last time Sonia came home with me.Back then, we had heard an earful about why we should start scouting for good men to date. My mother loves Sonia; she has been very picky about the kinds of friends I kept while growing up, but somehow, she naturally gravitated toward Sonia.She would often tell me to bring Sonia when next I am coming to visit her, but it wasn't really possible for me, as Sonia has always been busy with work or an engagement whenever it was time to visit my mom. Thankfully, she's here today.My mom ushered us into the room while she walked side by side with Nicholas. No one needed a fortune teller to reveal how she felt about him. He had managed to charm his way into her heart with his personality and beauty, just as he does with every other woman.I sat beside him on a couch

Laura's POV "I am sorry, Mother. I wish we could stay the night, but I have an emergency I need to attend to at home," he said. "How can you book a flight this evening? Would you even be able to find any flights going to Italy at this time of night?" she asked. Nicholas smiled and began to say, "We came with..." "Return tickets," I finished, cutting him off. He looked at me quizzically, wondering why I had done what I did, but suddenly it seemed to click. "Oh yeah, we booked return tickets for the three of us," he said. My mother had a solemn look on her face; she liked Nicholas a whole lot and would have wanted him to stay the night. "Don't worry, Mother. You can always come over to visit us in Italy. Whenever you want to come, just say the word, and I'd book your flight," her face instantly lit up. "Trust me, that will happen pretty soon," she said, looking at the three of us. "I bet it will," I replied. She rolled her eyes at me, and we all chuckled. "Okay, off we go then,"

Laura's POV The store manager was shocked for a moment. After regaining his composure, he hurried toward Nicholas. "Good evening, boss... we... we... weren't informed you were coming," he stuttered. Did he just call Nicholas "boss"? I thought. Does that mean they know each other from before? Wait, Nicholas is a very influential and powerful man. There's actually no way he knows this store manager on a personal level. I continued to observe to see how things would unfold. "I don't think I need to inform anyone about my movements," Nicholas said coldly as he glanced at the name tag on the store manager's suit. "Employees? This boutique belongs to Nicholas?" Holy crap! I was shocked. I knew he was wealthy and owned a lot of things, but I never thought this boutique belonged to him. Nicholas picked up his phone and made a call. A few seconds later, he said coldly, "What kind of store managers do you assign to my branches?" Then, he added, "Find a replacement immediately and vet them

Laura's POV She smiled seductively at him and traced her fingers on his suit. "Of course, I am here to see you, darling," she chuckled. "It has been a while, Nicholas. I know I left you when I shouldn't have, but I am back now. Let's pick up from where we left off." I gave him one extra chance, one chance to prove that whatever they had was in the past. I was giving him the benefit of the doubt. He couldn't possibly have been deceiving me all this time, could he? All he needed to do was shush her up and tell her there was nothing between them anymore, and that he now had a girlfriend whom he loved more than anything in the world. That was all I needed for everything to be forgiven, but Nicholas didn't utter a word. Instead, he glanced towards me. His silence was golden, and it spoke volumes. It shattered me. The way he looked at her showed that there was still something there. It was obvious he still had feelings for her. I almost lost my balance as I tried to step back. "Laura!"

Nicholas POVThe day had finally arrived, the day when I would meet up with Rose at the hotel she mentioned. I hadn't told Laura about it because I thought she might not understand and could end up feeling insecure, thinking I still had something going on with Rose. I wanted to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings and maintain the perfect harmony we had in our relationship.It was 3 pm, and my excitement was palpable. I had to leave early because I wanted to make sure everything went smoothly. I had returned home by 2 pm to get ready properly before heading out. As I descended the stairs, I heard voices in the living room. A smile crept onto my face; Laura was already back. Although she wasn't supposed to return until 5 pm, I had thought I would have already left by the time she got back.As I got closer, her eyes darted towards me, and a smile immediately spread across her face. She had been having a chat with Abraham."She just came back, Abraham. She needs rest. Don't you have t
