Laura's POV

Aaron flashed a warm smile at me, taking a sit opposite me even though I didn't offer him a seat.

“It's nice to see you again, Laura. And oh, my bad for sitting without your consent,” He said almost immediately, and I waved it off.

“Oh, no problem.” I mumbled.

There was a moment of silence between us as Aaron wouldn't stop giving me a creepy smile, I could tell that was really creepy. I checked my wristwatch again and still no sign of Rena nearby.

“How're you doing anyway? I saw your video the other...”

“That's not really my problem, Aaron.” I cut him off, trying to sound cool. He seemed charming but he's prying into what wasn't his business.

Aaron shrugged. “I'm just worried about you, Laura. Even though I don't mean any harm. Don't take this the wrong way,” He replied, splaying his hands as he ordered a waiter to bring us coffee.

“Are you stalking me, Aaron?” I couldn't stop myself before I ask. Aaron quirked a brow at me and answered, “Stalk you? Why would I do that? I

    Bella's POVI felt pains all over my body, most especially my abdomen as I strained myself to do the house chores Aaron has left me to deal with. They were maids around but still, Aaron wouldn't let them do a thing, thereby leaving me to do all despite my condition.How could he be so heartless? The Aaron I once knew wasn't this way and neither was he being rude to me but now, it's more like I was getting irritated by him, that I was something that disgusted him. How he called me worthless, meaningless?, It brought tears to my eyes.Groaning slightly, I rested on a couch, stretching my arms as pain washed into me again. “Ahh,” I gave an involuntary moan.I wasn't due for labor so why was I feeling pains and cramps? Not that I wasn't due, it wasn't just time yet.. it's early.My mind suddenly darted to Eric and tears clouded my eyes—I promised myself not to think or remember him since whatever we once had is in the past, but I couldn't bring myself to keep thinking about him.

    Eric's POVI was in my office with Tyler when I heard Bea trying to stop someone from seeing me. Curiosity got the better of me as I decided to go see who it was and to my uttermost surprise, it was Bella —Standing there. What was she doing here? My body itched to embrace her but same time, we were not a thing—No us, so I stood on my ground, restricting her from coming any closer. Who knew what I could do to her if she comes any closer.“But.. Aaron and I didn't discuss anything,” She said innocently and I scoffed. “You think I can believe that, Bella? I can't believe your lies!” I snapped, trying my best to be at my cool. Bella threw her gaze to the floor, I could see the tears that gathered in her eyes.“Let me just talk to you, please. Even if this is the last time” She pleaded. I spared her different glances before nodding once. We trod into my office. Tyler's mouth fell open when he saw us as he gave me an unkind expression.“Hi, Tyler” Bella flashed a smile at Tyler. “Oh, hi,

    Laura's POVChatting with Rena was lively and fun. We went all places together after the restaurant. Indeed, I missed a friend —Rena. And finally, she departed after informing me on the date to be fixed for her wedding with Nate. Nate was her man, actually. Flynn successfully drove me back home as I came out, strolling into the mansion. “Where are you coming from?” Someone's voice came from behind, and I almost jolted in fear. My face contorted to a frown when I saw it was no one but pestering Agatha.“And where I'm coming from isn't any of your business, Agatha.” I replied, and made to walk away when she suddenly started clapping. “Wow, bravo, Laura, bravo. You've been getting the guts lately, aren't you?” She retorted.“Won't you give up, Agatha? There's nothing we can sit and discuss when we both know the results. And oh please, stop trying to interrogate me because I owe you no explanation.” I said to her and finally walked away. I glanced over my shoulders to see her fuming f

    Laura's POVI moved aside when Sasha's voice came out of nowhere. Eric's eyes darted to her as she slowly approached us with a warm smile. I quirked my brows suspiciously. Why did she interfere during a serious conversation?“How're you doing, Sasha?” Eric gave her a small smile in return. For real, I scoffed silently. “I'm doing alright, Sir. It's like I interrupted something..” She settled her gaze on me. “I just wanted to welcome you and nothing more. I'll go do my job now,”, She added and started walking away.What the hell just happened?!“Thank you, Sasha.” Eric said and I rolled my eyes.“How long have you known Sasha?” I didn't know when that came as a blurt. Eric gawked at me for a while and shrugged. “Well, I can't say. Sasha is good loyal maid who's been working for me for the past few years. I can't say bad about her. She's competent,” He explained.“Oh, you talk like you trust her too much, uh?” I inquired.“Yeah. Look, Dad wants to see us,” Eric's words made me halt in

    Laura's POVThe ringing tone of my phone made me groan back to life. Half awake, and half-asleep. It was Larry —He's calling! Excitedly, I picked up without a second thought.“Sissy!” Larry called excitedly.“Larry.” I beamed happily. “So, we're on holiday. And I was thinking...”“Yeah! Come over, Larry! Come over!” I squealed with the thoughts of seeing him again. It's been several months, he must've been a big boy now. Gosh, I couldn't wait to see him.“Really, Sis? You seem more excited than I am.” He giggled over the phone and I smiled tearily, remembering the anonymous caller's threat about taking Larry as well.“Larry...” I called. “Yes?” He responded.“Make sure you'll be coming here straight, okay? Do not even converse with anyone until you get here. And be careful with the cab you board,” I cautioned like a mother would do to her son and he laughed.“Why are you speaking this way like you are afraid of something. Is there something that's eating you up? You can tell me.” La

    Laura's POV“How did you get my number, Aaron?” I demanded to know again, and he snorted over the phone like something was funny, causing me to crease my brow. Seriously, was he finding this funny to begin with? I couldn't remember possibly exchanging any contacts with him. “You ask too many questions, Laura. Isn't it good thing that I called you to ask how you're doing?” He replied with a snort again, and I scoffed, feeling irritated. Now I'm starting to see why Eric didn't like him.Eric's voice came again. “Laura! Are you okay in there?” He asked.“Oh yes, yes, I am.” I replied almost immediately.“Of course I need to ask how you got my contact because I can remember the last time, you didn't ask for it.” I snapped at Aaron on the phone.“Don't yell at me, Laura. You're over stepping your boundaries,” Aaron's voice came as a warning and I felt cringed. “What do you mean?” I muttered in a whispering tone.“Don't ask, you'll be expecting me soon at the mansion.

Why was he sounding so persistent and commanding? Like he was ruling me or something.Grudgingly, I found my way to the lobby and like he said, he was actually waiting there, staring at a particular direction —The poolside where Eric actually goes to swim or cool his head whenever he felt he couldn't disclose his problems to anyone, including me.He turned in my direction when he noticed I walked into the lobby, my body stiffened but I stood on my ground. I was going to let him treat me like I was his puppet.“What are you doing her, Aaron? Do you not realize the risk you'd be causing if Eric was actually here?” I blurted out angrily, and he smiled.“You get angry and paranoid too much, Laura. I think that's why he chose you, uh?

    Laura's POV“I can work with you to help you get your revenge, Laura. You deserve to get justice for your father's death and your Mum's abduction,” Aaron coaxed me. Tears ran down my cheeks as I shook my head unbelievably. I couldn't believe it... Eric killed my Dad? How? Is that even possible?“Laura...” Aaron tried to call. “I will think about this, Aaron. You can take your leave, and thanks for the information.” I said to him, glancing at the photos again and he nodded once.“If that's what you say, I'll respect your decision. Just please be careful about Eric, he isn't what he seems to be. If you're done consoling yourself, you can text or call me.” He replied, before turning to leave. I sighed softly, wiping the tears that had dried up on my face as I trod back into the house.I must have taken so long talking to Aaron because when I got back, Larry was already in the dinning room.“Sissy!” He exclaimed when he saw me. Absentmindedly, I strode past him, my mind still on what A

When the judge walked in, we all did the respectful thing as Aaron was brought in, looking ragged and weightless. My blood boiled with rage and anger as I tried to control myself from where I sat. I couldn't wait for the final hearing to be over and spit on the bastard's face. He would be getting what he deserved anytime soon. I glanced up when I got warm hands on mine. “Everything will be okay, Sis. Mum must get justice for her death.” My brother, Larry assured beside me, and I nodded with a small smile. “Yeah, she would.” Soon, the hearings resumed, and we all watched as Aaron's lawyer kept trying to deny all the evidences pinned on his victim, Aaron, but ours was stronger to identify the wrong. Eventually, the cases and consequences of actions were read out, and it was time for the judge to give the fin

And when he was done, I asked. “Are you done?”“Wait, you haven't been listening to me the whole time, dude?” He replied with widened eyes. I scoffed, returning my gaze to the document I was filling earlier.“No, I wasn't.” I muttered. I finished filling the important information on the document and handed it to Sofia, my new assistant.“Here you go, Sofia.”“Thank you, Sir.” She flashed me a smile.“Um, Sofia!” I called when she turned to leave the office. “Yes, Sir?” She turned to face me.“Can you get me info about M&M Corporation? I'm longingly expecting to buy it.” I replied with a knowing smirk. She nodded immediately. “Sure, Sir. I will look into it and update you.” “You can leave.”“Okay, Sir.” She muttered before scurrying out. I didn't miss the look on Tyler's face as I gawked at him.“What?” “Did you just realize what you just said, Eric? You want to-”I groaned, leaning on the

Bea eventually succumbed to my demand and told me everything I needed to know. I was doing all these without Eric's approval. I needed to save his company from falling into the hands of Aaron, and I knew how defeated and shock he would be by my sudden presence.It took a great effort before the crowd got back themselves and resumed clapping as I placed my bidding. Jackpot. I had gotten back what belong to the Sloans', and no one would ever try to take it.As I turned to walk away from the crowd, Aaron suddenly stood up and stormed out of the hall.“Mr Walker!”“Mr Walker!”“Why did he leave??”“Is there something wrong?” I heard murmurs from the crowd of people as I rushed after Aaron.

Aaron was letting this sudden revenge rule over him, and he wasn't ready to back out.After I had disclosed to him how Agatha showed up and escaped with Laura, and her Mom, he became angry. The news of Me shootings her mom made him stop breaking any frame he came across with at least.Not in this Earth would I have believed that someone like Agatha Sloan would be able to know such kind of place, and without the fear of being caught and killed, saved Laura. Ever since I was a maid in the mansion, I've witnessed, several times, her hatred for Laura Karma. She never loved her from the beginning, what changed?“Where are you going?” I asked, stomping my right foot on the floor as I watched Aaron appeared on the stairs, a wolfish grin plastered on his face, his hands dipped into an eccentric tuxedo that he wore.“Aren't I allowed to leave this house, Sasha? Come on, don't start.” He rolled his eyes, brushing past me.“No

    Agatha's POVI stepped out of my car, in front of Bea's apartment. I saw her arranging some files in a box with a young girl who had a striking resemblance to her, assisting her.Without hesitation, I marched towards them, and before she could look up properly at who walked in, I slapped her hard across the face.Fuck you. I wanted to curse at her, but I refrained with so much withheld. I left Laura to Eric back at the prison of a place when my tracker pinged on my phone, and directed me to Bea's place. Furthermore, I couldn't even disclose the truth to Eric when he asked because I didn't want him to get worried. If it had to do with his company, he'd definitely be worked up.Recently when I got my hands on the copies of Aaron's phone calls and other files from Clara, I also got to figure out something. Bea was fucking betraying her own boss.Bea held her cheek as she stared at me, her brows knitted with confusion. “M-Ms Agatha... Why did you do that?” She gathered her voice as I sta

    Agatha's POVLaura collapsed on the floor, like how I'd predicted. I noticed her pale state earlier. And immediately, she was taken into a ward where she was examined by the doctor while I waited impatiently.I really prayed silently that she wouldn't be traumatized by the earlier incident. Her Mom was gone... That was the harsh truth, and there wouldn't be any reverse.Though, I never knew Mrs Karma until today but noticing the interaction between the Mom-and-daughter, I could tell that they had a strong bond. The thoughts of seeing Laura go through misery made my heart to constrict.Immediately, the doctor walked out of the ward. “Doctor... How is she?” I asked with a glint of hope blazing in my eyes.“She'll be conscious any moment from now. She passed out as a result of the shock she received earlier, and it's a miracle that her baby wasn't scathed. I guessed that was due to how healthy she has been. Do you know what kind of foods she eats?” He replied.I sighed in relief, glad th

I wouldn't want to lose her the second time. Mom was part of me, and part of me couldn't be left here.“We need to go separate ways so they won't find us!” Came Agatha's voice when we got to a particular point.“No! I can't leave Mom to go alone. Let sought this out!”.“Hey! Don't move an inch!” We suddenly heard a voice, and immediately, we took cover, diving into trees barks. My breath became heavy, and that was the more I became obvious of my surrounding.“Why did you risk your life to save us, Agatha? You could get killed.” I said with heavy breaths.“Do you know what it took me to get to find you guys? As of now, I'm the one who can save you guys before it gets late.” She replied.“This is risky, I don't want you to-”“You should stop worrying about what's already done, and think of wa

I knew I was down for.Craning my neck, I slightly glanced at the huge man behind me, my hands raised in the air as if I were getting arrested by the corps.If Aaron finds out I'm out here, I'd be doomed, and my plans to rescue Laura and her mom would be in vain. He'd end our lives right here, and without a bloody trace.So I turned properly to look at him in the eye. Thankfully, I hadn't gotten walked far to the place. Else, I'd have gotten caught by several men.I swallowed, and thought of the only thing to save myself at that moment. And as much as I hated to say the words, I blurted. “I'm Aaron's girlfriend. He asked me to be here.”Fuck! Those words sounded so bad.The man gave me an odd look, glancing from my head to toes for a moment, his brows knitted with confusion shone on his eyes with how he took me in. “But Mr Aaron

    Agatha’s POV“How did it go?” I asked, arms akimbo, as my eyes trailed Clara until she sat with a thud on the bed. “How do you think it went?” she returned the question licking her lips and moving her body sensually.“Oops, you know what I mean, Clara,” I said with a slight smirk on the side of my lips and paced around slightly, my hips swaying with every move I made.“I see you don’t want to be fed details of how I gave it to him from the front, back, and even from the side. It was sizzling hot. Damn! You never told me this dude was good-”I watched her as she kept talking about her escapade with Aaron without saying anything. She looked at my face in one jerk and saw how cold and serious it had grown. She didn’t need to be told I was in no mood to hear her vain blabbings.“I could fix the chip to the side of his phone casing while he was fast asleep. Not to worry, he didn’t suspect anything but what are you doing trying to track a man like that?” she asked, her brows creasing slig
