Nicholas POV Alfred and Laura tumbled to the ground. She glanced back and noticed his injury; he had been shot in the arm he'd used to hold onto her. "Quick, Laura, come over here!" I yelled. She sprang to her feet and dashed towards us. At that moment, I saw Alfred reaching for his fallen gun, and he aimed it at Laura. Panic surged through me as I reached for my own concealed firearm. He moved too quickly, squeezing the trigger, but Dickson instinctively pushed Laura aside and took the bullet instead. I was in a state of shock. Everything had unfolded in the blink of an eye. Anger coursed through me as I squeezed the trigger, hitting his shoulder and disarming him. I approached him and emptied my bullets into his body, causing blood to splatter across the floor. My gaze shifted to Rose with a deep sense of disdain. She appeared frightened and was on the verge of fleeing when my men, emerging from hiding in the bushes, swiftly apprehended her. Despite my strong desire for revenge a

Laura's POVHe stood by the doorway, a radiant smile on his face as he glanced at Abraham before shifting his attention to me. He then proceeded to walk in our direction. I couldn't help but catch my breath. His presence left me utterly breathless."Stop it, Laura, not again," my inner thoughts scolded."Good day, ma. It's a pleasure to see you once more," he greeted, reaching out his hand with a smile gracing his features. I cleared my throat, struggling to maintain my composure as I shook his hand, feeling a surge of electricity course through my body. I was undeniably captivated by him.I raised my gaze gracefully, meeting his eyes as I replied with confidence, "It's a pleasure to see you again. Remind me of your name, please?" I inquired, feigning forgetfulness about his name being Fernando.Maintaining this pretense was essential because I didn't want to give him any misconceptions. If I had mentioned his name, he might have assumed I was interested in him. After all, with over 1

Laura's POVHe flashed a smile my way, closing the distance between us. "Have you been searching for me, Madam?" he quipped, raising an eyebrow.The term "Madam" again? Why does he insist on calling me that when my name is Laura?"Calm down, Laura," my inner voice reasoned. "He's just showing you the respect he thinks you deserve as his boss's wife.""I'm not sure if you know, or if I've mentioned it before, but my name is Laura," I replied, examining him seductively with my eyes. I hadn't come here to play games, and I wanted to make that clear to him."Oh, is that so?" he asked slyly. "How could I possibly address my boss's wife by her first name? What would people say or think?" he mused.Running my hand along his shirt, I whispered, "You don't have to call me by my name in front of others," locking eyes with him. "Save that for when we're alone." He raised an eyebrow in surprise, a subtle smile playing at the corners of his lips. He seemed genuinely intrigued."I'll do just that,

Laura's POVMy heart sank into my stomach as I heard his words. He had mentioned he would come home by 10 pm, and it wasn't even that time yet. Why had he returned earlier than planned?Wait, could he have seen me? Was he asking because he knew? Panic surged within me momentarily. But even if he had seen me, so what? He had cheated on me first with his ex-girlfriend, the same person he claimed he wanted nothing to do with anymore.Suddenly, confidence coursed through my body, and I gazed at him intently."I went outside for a walk to clear my head. You mentioned you'd be home by 10 pm. What happened? Why did you come back earlier than expected?" I asked, scrutinizing him carefully, silently praying that my worst fear hadn't come true.I couldn't afford to get caught now, but if I already had, I'd play the guilty-not-guilty card."Yeah, about that, we finished the meeting an hour earlier than planned, which is why I came home early," he explained. I let out a deep breath. It was clear

Laura's POVI sneaked into his room, making sure no one saw me in broad daylight. I tapped lightly on the door as I entered, and it opened almost immediately."There you are," he said, holding the door open, a smile creeping onto his face. My eyes lit up upon seeing him. He had occupied my thoughts all night, and the mental image I had of him didn't do justice to the real thing.He was breathtaking. The rays of sunshine that streaked into the room brightened his white shirt, making him look almost unreal, like a deity.I stepped inside, and he closed the door behind me. Then, he turned around and immediately swept me off my feet—literally. I giggled as he spun me around."You just don't know how much I've missed you. All I could think about was you, day and night," he said, looking down at me with his mesmerizing eyes. I blushed a rosy pink, my heart fluttering beneath his gaze. I wrapped my hands around his shoulders and kissed him lightly. "Surprisingly, I missed you too," I said be

Laura's POVI gazed upon my grandmother, realizing I was about to face a thorough interrogation. She wore a warm smile, anticipating my response. My utensils clattered onto my plate as I interlocked my fingers."Indeed, you've heard correctly, Grandma," I affirmed. There was no reason to deny the presence of a man in my life, especially when they were already aware. My mother had briefly mentioned Nicholas and me during my late father's funeral.She had done this to impress the unfamiliar in-laws, trying to assert that we've been doing well and will continue without their involvement. Her revelation was fortunate because I might have denied Nicholas in their presence, considering our rocky relationship. My decision to elope with Fernando this weekend was set.After enduring more questioning and bonding, I returned to Nicholas's mansion, utterly drained. One thought consumed me - one person who could alleviate my suffering and transport me to a world of bliss and serenity: Fernando.I'

Laura's POVI gazed out of the window, my eyes fixed on the trees in the wilderness, while the melodic chirping of birds filled the air as we drove along the abandoned path that led away from Nicholas' mansion.My heart was in turmoil, deeply conflicted. One part of me hesitated to depart, clinging to the familiar, while the other part began to paint a vivid picture of what life could be like with Fernando.Was this the moment I had been waiting for? Was I truly leaving Nicholas behind to embark on a new life with Fernando on his secluded island? I had entrusted my uncles with the responsibility of managing my father's business.They had been by his side for years, intimately familiar with the workings of the enterprise, far more than I ever could be. Besides, I had no intention of immersing myself in any of those mafia dealings.My sole focus was on having my funds transferred to me while they assumed control of the business. I had ascended to billionaire status, now fully capable of

Laura's POVI couldn't fathom the unfolding events. How could a seemingly destitute man turn out to be so affluent? Why did he initially pose as a job seeker for Nicholas? Had he been concealing his true identity all along?If that was indeed the case, I yearned for answers, a deeper understanding of it all.His fingers enveloped me, drawing me nearer, a hint of a smile on his lips. Gazing at me with what appeared to be admiration in his eyes, he reassured, "Love, I'm not playing any games; you have to trust me."I wasn't going to accept that explanation. In fact, I found it hard to believe. I tilted my head, studying his face closely, and when he attempted to kiss me, I gently pushed him away.This wasn't the moment for such distractions. It felt like a cunning maneuver from him, and I was determined to stay focused on the matter at hand.I voiced the question that had been lingering in my mind since I entered the estate, "Why, in your circumstances, did you choose to work for Nichol
