Laura's POV
After hearing those inconsiderate words from that arrogant, ungrateful, inhuman and nonchalant Luca of a boss, I managed to walk out of his room like everything was fine.
When I got out of the room, I wanted to let out the welling up tears, but some of my colleagues were there doing their various chores and the last thing I wanted was for any of them to know what was going on with me. I might not be able to take the embarrassment that would follow.
I walked past them towards my room blinking severally to avoid tears from falling off and giving me away.
"Laura, Lau, Laurie..." I heard Mary calling from behind.
Instead of answering, I increased my pace to my room.
"Laura." She called again, and I felt the prying eyes of my colleagues on me, from behind.
I felt the tears I've been holding start falling off. I quickly ran inside my room and locked myself up. I just gave myself out.
I would have answered Ma
Laura As I corked the gun to shoot, I felt someone tapping and everything was suddenly fading away slowly and soon my eyes opened. I was shocked. 'So it was only a dream?' I asked myself angrily and turned to the intruder, it was Stacy. "Hunnnn!" I grumbled at her angrily. What!? What? What? Stacy what? What have I done to you?" I screamed at her, while she was staring at me in disbelief. "This is crazy." I sighed. "Can I know what is going on now?" Stacy yelled and I cringed. I heaved a sigh of relief. "I almost killed him." I replied, furrowing my eyebrows. "Killed who?" She enquired "Well, those robbers gave me a gun to kill him." I answered. "Killed who?" She asked with clenched teeth, her voice emitting anger. "Luca... Luca." I replied, with fear of unleashing her anger. "Well, in my dream..." I explained everything to her. "You better be serious." She said hugging me. "I know how y
Clara's POV When I got to Luca's house that morning, to meet Mary, the security guard happily welcomed me, as I drove in. I guess the noise of my car woke some of the maids as they started coming out to welcome me. As I walked to the living room they kept bombarding me with questions. I don't blame them, cause it's my first time visiting them this early so my son would know how important it is to me. Luca probably heard our voices, he came out to welcome me. As soon as he came out, the maids started dispatching one after the other. That showed how unfriendly my son has become over the years. "You girls don't have to leave, I have something for everyone. One of you should go to the car and get it." I said throwing my keys to them and one of them caught it. It sought of caused a noise as they all rushed out impatiently to get what I got for them. "Mom that wasn't necessary," Luca commented. "Morning Luca and my night was fine." I
Laura P.O.V "Are you sure you will be alright going to work?" Stacy asks me when she saw me preparing for work. "I am fine Stacy, maybe going to work will distract me" I wear my shoe and take my bag. "If that is what you want, please take care of yourself and if anything happens don't hesitate to call me" She hugs me and I said goodbye to her. When I get to the bus stop I sit down on the chair there waiting for the bus to come remembering the nice memories I had with Mateo. "Laura, I have told you times without number not to ever bring yourself down in front of anyone, especially not in front of me," Mateo said when the application to the university was rejected again. "What else Mateo? Nobody wants me, I can't blame them even my biological parents left me when they know that I am useless" I said to him crying. "You are not useless darling, you are unique, and you are a rare gem that nobo
I was brought up in an orphanage home, I don't know my parents or any relative. The head of the orphanage home told me that some doctors brought me here because I was left in the hospital. The head of the orphanage home adopted me and gave me her surname. She always said "You are an angel to me" She named me Laura Angel Williams. When I reached the age of 18, I started working to save some money to get an apartment and to furthermore on my education, I was a high school graduate. Mrs. Williams, my adopted mother sent me to school up to High School. I don't have friends in the orphanage home, the kids always bullied me because of that I feel dejected and I decided to be on my own. After two years, I was able to gather some money and left the orphanage home, I applied to some universities to further my education but I was rejected. Suddenly the doorbells jolted me out of my thoughts, I stand up and opened the door revealing my friend Stacy. She
Some days later, I went out to look for a job but all of them are saying no vacancies.On my way back home, I went to the supermarket to get some foodstuffs to make cook and also cook for Stacy before she comes back from work."Hi Angel" Stacy greets me "Hi dear, how's work today?" I said while putting the food on the table for us to eat."Good and stressful," she saidAfter we finish eating, we sit down in the living room to watch movies."OMG, Angel I can't believe I forget, there was a guy that came to our store today and said his boss needs a maid and he wants someone he can trust," She said looking at me "But I don't know maybe you will do it."Why not? I will do it as long as I get a job to pay my bills.She gave the guy's number then I text him immediately and he sent the address to me.The next day, I take a cab to the address given to me, when I get there, a security guy stops me and I told him the person I
I knocked on Mr. Moreno's door to give him his coffee and asked what he will have for breakfast but he did not answer me, I keep on knocking until my knuckle turns white. I decided to turn back but I collide with my boss making me emptying all the coffee on his white shirt. I am dead today.I lookup and saw my boss standing in front of me with a deep frown face."I am sorry sir," I said and moves back a little."What is the time now, idiot?" He asked and I checked the time on my phone but I saw a message from him.It is 8 am" I reply to him."Is it the time for you to come now? Anyway, serve my breakfast I am leaving now " I think my boss has a lot of problems not only been rude."But sir, this is the time for your coffee, you told me to always bring coffee for you at 8 am and you have not told me what you will eat this morning," I said to him."Don't tell me you did not see my message?"

LAURA POVWhen I finish preparing his breakfast, I made my way to his room, I knock on his door but no response. After three minutes of knocking I decided to enter his room maybe he is in the shower but what I saw is so fabulous.I saw my boss half-naked with his butt on display trying to wear his boxers."You dumb, can't you knock on the door before entering?" He stares at me angrily."I knocked but no reply, I think you are in the bathroom that is why I enter. I am sorry" I stylishly roam my eyes over his body.He seemed like he walks out of a magazine, with his perfect body, he has a nice broad shoulder and perfect abs a girl could die for.He went inside his closet and wear sweat pants and half sleeve shirt.To say the truth, I have never seen a perfect body like this before, but what he said to me make me reply him that way to hurt his ego.A knock on my door jolted me out of
"This is more than I ever imagine, everything looks good thank for your help," Mrs. Moreno said to me "I am glad you like it ma'am" I smile at her "Please Laura call me Clara," She said "Ok ma'....... Clara" She moves closer to me and hug me" "You are such a sweet girl. I want to apologize on behalf of my son, I know the way he treated you is not nice at all" She rubs her hand on her forehead "Luca is not always like this, my son is the very kind-hearted man I have ever seen, he became like this because of all the atrocity his ex-fiancé did to him. Since then he never trusts anybody again most especially women. I am so sorry for whatever insult he passed on you because of that" She said with tears in her eyes. "Please Eva, don't cry, I am sure he will come to his sense and be a better person you said he is" I wipe her tears and hug her. "Thanks dear, we should go and get ready because the guests will soon be arriving," She said.
