Laura's POV

I felt something weird rumbling in my stomach, my eyes couldn't focus on the food I was eating as the family rambled on and on. Few minutes ago, I'd been eating, but now I found myself on the floor, blood leaving my mouth, my hands holding my tummy.

“Laura!!!” Larry was the first person to scream as Eric rushed to my side. I didn't know what was wrong with me either, but I felt like I was dying as blood kept leaving me. My eyes caught Sasha, who stood there, feigning a worried expression I couldn't decipher. I didn't know whether she had done something to me or not and this wasn't the time to question her. Besides, this wasn't the first time she has been dishing out meals for us.

“Laura, are you okay? Come on, let's take you to the hospital. You'll be fine,” Eric hauled me up in a bridal style, tears brimming in my eyes. I kept forcing my eyes to stay open despite the pains I felt were too much for me to bear. My baby... What's happening?

“E-Eric,” My lips quivered as I cl

    Laura's POVTried to poison me? I stared at Eric with a fazed expression, my mind reeling with different thoughts of who might have attempted to end my life, but I couldn't think of anymore who'd want to do that. Who would want to take my life? “I don't know,” I mumbled, shaking my head as different thoughts went through me. He sighed, digging his fingers into my hair. “Do you have anyone against you? I mean, I'm ready to get that person behind bars for your sake. Don't cover up for the person, say it, Laura.” He whispered again and I exhaled.I couldn't think of anyone except only one person which was Sasha. Sasha served the meal, I couldn't point fingers at her yet because we all ate from the same food, so why was I the only one affected?I understand Eric's point on the other hand. He was willing to do anything to anyone who had put Me and our baby at risk moments back, and I wanted the same. Anyone who might have tried to get rid of me to get behind bars. “I can't still think a

    Sasha's POV“Jackpot!” I cheered the moment I stepped into my room and shut the door so no one would hear me. I couldn't stop the joy that overflowed in me as I kept reminiscing about the last moment I saw Laura's expression and wail on the floor.Gosh, my plan worked, and now I prayed she was no more and so was the child she was carrying. My plan absolutely worked! “Yeah, yeah, yeah, go baby,” I danced according to the tune of the song that played on the Bluetooth. Laura was out of the way, who's next? Eric or his entire family? I burst out laughing. How good does it feel to pay them back and see them suffer?“By now, they'd be in tears, crying their eyes out at dead Laura. Gosh, you're so smart, Sasha!” I hailed myself, smacking my head as I giggled, swirling my waist to the rhythm of the song.I wanted to tell Aaron about my plan which had just worked perfectly well, but then I remembered he wasn't allowed to make call unless permitted to which only caused me to frown, scoffing a

    Laura's POV“Good morning to you Ms Laura,” Doctor Shane said the moment he walked into my ward. I was already dressed and Eric was in front of me with few stuffs. I was getting discharged today.“Good morning, Doctor Shane,” I flashed a smile at him. “You'll be getting discharged today, were you informed?” Doctor Shane asked me before staring at Eric.“Yeah, I told her,” Eric replied, and I nodded in agreement.“That's good, now we offer you safe precautions tips. We don't want you to fall victim of another damage, Ms Laura. Do not risk your health, be mindful of things you do and hear around you and also what you eat. And Mr Eric...” The Doctor paused, shifting his gaze to Eric. “Do not tell her things that might cause risk to her and don't make her think alot. She doesn't need stress, this can result harm in her.” He continued.“I will make sure of that, Doctor Shane,” Eric responded to him as I left the bed, ready to leave.“Thanks for your concerns, Doctor Shane.” I thanked him.

    Laura's POV“What are you doing, Sasha?” I asked as Sasha kept sniffing, tension suddenly growing in the room until the entrance door burst open behind us and Agatha walked in.“Laura! Thank goodness you're back!” She exclaimed, widening her hands to give me a hug and I responded. Sasha used the opportunity to clean her face as she stood up, flashed me a smile and then scurried away.Eric glanced at me before disappearing out of our sight too. I guessed he had something to fix with his company or so.My eyes returned to Agatha, who kept searching my eyes and body as if looking for something. “You don't even look like someone who just arrived from the hospital,” She drawled, pulling me to one of the couches.My eyes wandered around again, my fingers fiddling against one another. I haven't seen Larry around yet.“Laura,” Agatha's voice brought me back to present. “Um, I'm alright. The Doctor said I just need to be careful with my health, that's not a big deal,” I told her, managing a s

    Sasha's POVI eavesdropped on Laura's conversation with Agatha who decided to act like the sister-in-law no one ever heard. Oh gosh, so annoying that I rolled my eyes. Thankfully, none of them could see me not until Laura noticed someone was watching her. Me-I swiftly hid in the dark, finding another way as I made my way to her, causing her to almost flinch.Laura was getting suspicious of me and I needed to do something to prevent her from getting too suspicious, but just then, a voice came from behind me.“Larry!” Laura exclaimed, her eyes glistening immediately she recognized the voice and I turned to see it was Larry, cocking his brows as his eyes met with mine. This two people were just a pain in the ass for me and I needed to deal with them before they ruin my plans.“What's going on? Is there something wrong?” He asked, still staring between us.“I...” I made to say something, but Laura cut me off. “Oh, nothing went wrong. I was just speaking with Sasha, right, Sash?” Laura

    Sasha's POVWhat the hell was he planning to do now? I just prayed it won't be something too risky. Who was Aaron without risk anyway? He'd always choose the part of risk rather than safety.My hands glided to rub my temple as I sighed in relief. I made to turn and leave again when my phone started to vibrate once more in my apron.“Who the hell is...” I paused, seeing it was Bella calling. A grin appeared on my lips. Why was she calling?“Are you finally going to reconsider what I told you the last time?” I said on the phone and she returned with a scoff from the receiver. “If you're going to be scoffing on the phone, why then did you call?” I almost snapped at her but I held back. Getting caught now wasn't one of the things in my list that I planned to do. At least not now, not anytime.“We need to meet,” She stated from the other end.“We need to meet? What do you have to say that can't be said over the phone?” Came my retort and she sighed. “There's much to say. I'm starting to

    Sasha's POV“Hurry up! Or don't tell me you've been caught?” Bella's voice came again and another scoff left me. “I bet you wish, but that's never going to happen. You got caught once, doesn't say the same for me,” I replied, rolling my eyes as I slide into my cargo pants. “Cut the crap, don't pin this on me. And don't be too sure you don't have someone keeping an eye on you in there. There's Laura right? I'm sure she's smarter than you'd predicted,” Bella yapped over the phone.“Still, you wish. I'm stuck here, it isn't easy going out without this pesky people having their eyes on me. It's like they're starting to suspect me,” I said, gritting through my teeth. Bella laughed from the other end like something was funny, stirring anger in me more.“Nothing is funny, cut out the laughter!” I snapped at her, unable to stop myself. “I told you they surely might be keeping an eye on you currently, and you may not be aware. You're not the only cunning person, you know?” She responded.“T

For the past few days, I've been here, I had learned the hard way, sincerely. I've been getting along with my cellmates even though there always come a time of rift and heated arguments between us, but I've come to realized they weren't as bad as I pictured them to be after all. They've been to my rescue whenever I was getting bullied by the other inmates during the training ground or while eating, they've been there to act like friends. I couldn't believe I was making friends while in prison. Fuck it!“Where are we going?” I decided to ask one of them who was beside me. “I think they are taking us to the trial ground to train,” He replied solemnly.I chuckled and said, “They train while in prison? These corps are just hilarious!”“It's for protecti

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 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
