Laura shrugged under his grip as she replied with a sarcastic smile, "You're jealous?"

Augustus blinked in surprise and realizing that he had lost his posture, he immediately stepped away from her.

Laura felt disheartened when she felt his distant behavior with her.

"Laura, you just came here and you should not be with someone who is too old for you." Augustus told her meaningfully but Laura replied in stubbornness, "Mr. Augustus it's none of your business with whom I decided to be."

"So have you decided already?" Augustus asked in shock, his voice was rising again.

Laura frowned in confusion she didn't know why he is giving so a loud reaction, he had completely shown her that he hated her and doesn't even care about her so then what is this now?

Without answering his question, Laura simply ignored him and walked to the elevator.

"You should know that your sister loves you a lot, one wrong step of yours can hurt her very much Laura."

    "One....Million....?" Laura stuttered in complete disbelief.The man smirked, "Lady, you now owe me one million. You better give it back to me or continue what you always do."Laura's ears turned red and her nose started flaring in fury, "How could this man keep insulting her like this? She told him she isn't any prostitute but still, he kept implying that tag on her."She stood up angrily as she yelled at him, "Mister, I told you that I belong to a noble family, I don't need to do these kinds of shameless things. And besides what proof do you have that you gave me one million huh?"She folded her arms over her chest as she stood with confidence and stared at him with narrowed eyes.The man's lazy posture of sitting on the bed didn't change at all as he very casually replied to her back, "What if I tell your noble family people what you did?"Laura murmured in confusion, "What I did?""Huh," the man chuckled in sarcasm and then continued, "You got

Let's just take a deep breath first.” Laura said as she walked to her room and lay on her bed feeling lazy from the jet lag.Tina also lay beside her, eager to hear the story."So...?" She asked."Uhmm.... It was okay but guess who I found there?" Laura asked her making her more curious."Who?" Tina asked dumbly. She has no idea of whom she can get there?"That mysterious man, Tina,” Laura yelled in excitement as she revealed."What?" Tina sat up abruptly as she looked at her in disbelief. "You must be joking." She gasped in shock."Nope, I am not," Laura told her firmly as she too sat up."So how was it?" Tina asked in curiosity."What it? If you're asking about the man. God..!

    Laura blinked her eyes multiple times before she realized that she had been dreaming. Instead of saying anything, she simply turned and again laid down on the bed while her hair was still dripping water.Tina felt amused by her actions as she sat beside her and asked in curiosity, “So, what was it?”“Nothing,” Laura replied grumpily while pushing her head deeper into the pillow.Tina knew it was useless to argue with her as she simply stood up and then announced, “By the way darling, we need to attend the school so wake up..! I am sure Principal would be shocked to see you returning in just four days.”She laughed mockingly and then went out on which Laura groaned unhappily. She thought of her dream, why did she keep on seeing that same man always, why that man always tries to take Augustus’s place?After calming down her mind, Laura finally stood up, went to the bathroom, took shower, and got ready for her school.

    “So, do you have any boyfriend?” He asked her casually as he was holding her waist in his arms.“uh mm, no,” Laura replied feeling hesitant because of the closeness.“Hmm, Then any lover or anything?” He asked more as Laura denied. “No, nothing.”“Good,” He half smiled as he looked at her pale face, and her eyes roaming around the room in nervousness.“Laura, you need to satisfy me.” His words echoed as Laura stopped looking around and looked down at him in confusion. “What?”“You asked me what you should do to pay me, right.” He asked her and Laura nodded.“So here’s the deal, you have to satisfy me in all ways.” He told her again but Laura still doesn’t get his point.“What do you mean?” She asked feeling confused.“I mean, from now on you have to become my slave. You’ll do anything I ask you. If it&

    “Hmm.” Laura groaned in her sleep, feeling a strong headache. She felt like she is on fire, her nostrils are releasing hot breath making her uncomfortable. She opened her heavy eyes with difficulty and hissed when something cold was placed on her head.She tried to remove that cold thing but suddenly something grabbed her restless wrist making her stop in an instant. She felt danger as she didn’t resist the touch and tried to open her eyes carefully just to see the known face of a man.“You…” She said in a low voice with another attempt of moving but the man again stopped her by his deep command. “Stay still.”She stayed still like an obedient child and kept watching him putting a cold cloth on her head from time to time, she tried to find Augustus’s face in him but can’t see it though. “He could never take care of me.” She said to herself bitterly as she closed her eyes feeling the warm tears fa

    “God, you have really f**ked a rich man Laura.” Tina laughed in praise but stopped when she saw the deadly gaze of Laura on her face.“I… I.. mean to say… that.. That Mr. Aldrich is a very rich man. I heard one of our classmates saying that he is donating a huge amount of money to the school. That is why he was here right or..?” Tina paused as something hit her head. “Or he was there for you? But why would he donate such a huge amount for the sake of meeting you.. Na… Na… That won’t be possible right?” Tina looked at Laura and said while thinking deeply.Laura was too lost in her thinking for a moment but when she remembered his threatening words she came back to her senses. “Fool, that man is a heartless person. He won’t spend a single penny on me. Never.” She said to herself in her mind as she looked at Tina.“He must be here for some donation and accidentally saw me.&rdquo

    Taking a deep breath, Laura finally sat in the car but didn’t look at him. She looked straight hoping he would say something to break the silence or start his car but nothing. It was complete silence.Only their breathing could be heard as she tried to focus on an empty road, his deep voice jerked her back. “How’s your fever now?”She looked at him stunned, “Better.” Just one word, she could utter. He then touched her forehead and she leaned back in panic but hit the door instead.“How’s your bruise?” He rubbed his fingers very softly on her bruised forehead. Laura was completely numb at his gesture as she kept staring at him. Tina’s words rang in her ears as why he would come here? For her? Does he have something for her?She took some courage as she asked him in a low voice, “Have you… Have you come here for me?”Steven looked at her with his calm face as he asked, “What d

This would be the third center you had built in one year.
