All Chapters of Bound By Passion: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

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 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 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 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 POVSilence hung in the air as we waited for the footsteps to fade, but they persisted. Another knock echoed through the room. Fernando rolled his eyes and glanced my way, raising an eyebrow. I pretended to be okay with him going to check who it was. We could indulge ourselves later; time was on our side.He moved to the edge of the bed and got to his feet, still fully dressed, which was fortunate. I stood up and hastily buttoned my trousers, uttering quiet curses under my breath. Whoever dared to disrupt our moment had better have a good enough reason for doing so.Fernando opened the door and peered outside."What is it Peter?", he called out, his voice tinged with fury."I... I'm sorry for disturbing you, boss," the man stammered, his voice shaky. "Your father has just returned and wishes to see you," he finally managed to explain. He appeared extremely tense, standing before Fernando, who scrutinized him with a furious glare.I hadn't witnessed this side of Fernando before
