Standing outside Steven’s office for more than three hours, Laura had literally started shivering, not risking her health more, she walked to the nearest coffee shop and then had a cup of coffee to warm her body and also stayed inside the coffee shop for quite some time so that her trembling body calms down.The headache came back as she carefully took her medicines and waited for the dizziness and headache to go away. After a while, when she felt completely fine and energetic, she then finally left the coffee shop to go back to her mark and wait for the angry man to show himself.***KNOCK … KNOCK … KNOCK …A knock on the door didn’t make Steven stop typing whatever he was on the laptop, he didn’t even raise his head to look at the person as he could see that it was lunchtime and the aroma of food lingered in the whole room indicating that Natasha had already brought his lunch.She placed the lunch at the coffee table

Laura was thrown back to her place where she would stand all day long, she didn’t give up but felt a bit hurt by Steven’s cold and indifferent behavior towards her.He really didn’t care about her, no matter what Augustus had told him at least for once he should listen to her explanation and give her a chance to explain.She felt a bit frustrated and slightly regretful too for coming here, but it was just the second day, she shouldn’t lose her hope so soon, right? She should stay determined on her decision.Laura stubbornly stood at her place, the slow headache coming back, as she immediately took out a bottle and gulped down the medicine with water, feeling better she walked to the nearest cafe and then stood there for a while until she felt okay to walk back and stood at her place waiting for Steven to come back.She has a hope that he will definitely come back to the office.***“Drive to the office,” Steven ordere

A faint smile appeared on Steven’s lips when he heard Laura cursing and yelling, now she really looks like the old Laura. He sighed in relief and kept watching her struggling to open the door.She looked like an ant on a hot pan, he didn’t know why she was acting so loud as though she was suffocated by these walls, but not taking anything into his concern he kept enjoying the show of her struggles.After all, he has also struggled a lot because of her now it’s her time to suffer.If Augustus is not worried about his child, then why would he care?

“She isn’t here,” Mr. Xavier informed as he saw Steven again peeking from his office window looking for the woman who had completely disturbed his life for the last couple of weeks.He frowned and then turned with a look of guilt on his face but hid it with anger skillfully, “I was just looking around, why do you keep mentioning her?”He sat on his chair and a loud sound came from his actions showing his rage.“Master, it’s the fourth time you’re looking down from your window and also you haven’t had your lunch yet.”Mr. Xavier said calmly and kept his head lowered.Steven glared at him angrily, this man really knows how to answer every question. Couldn’t he apologize and just left. At least that won’t make him feel more guilty and ashamed about his actions.This is the third day straight in a row that Laura didn’t show up, she had even shown up during weekends and he also intention

A FEW DAYS LATERSteven was sitting in his office focusing on his work, he had been very absent-minded lately and ruining all his work. He would always forget the main point that he needed to discuss and also he wasn’t able to verify the information properly.Every time during his court hearing, he would make a mistake. He felt lost and alone even when he was sitting in a courtroom that was fully crowded with people.Mr. Xavier knows why he has become like this but he didn’t dare to say anything to him about it or mention that person’s name who has changed him drastically.He was flipping through the recent case file when Natasha knocked and entered his office, Steven was as expected in a dark mood as Natasha informed him politely.“Mr. Carlos’s secretary has called again for the meeting schedule. You’re free today so should I…”Before she could get a chance to complete her words, Steven snapped angrily. &ldquo

“Laura was diagnosed with a brain tumor, she was in her initial stage when the doctors found out about it, but she ran away from that hospital, afraid of everything, and also she was all alone at that time,” Augustus said slowly, he looked sad and guilty.“One day, I went to look for her to apologize for what I did, I know I acted impulsively on Lisa’s miscarriage but…”Augustus stopped sighing deeply, thinking about the past.“She looked terrible when I finally found her, and then later she told me the truth but didn’t want to get surgery,” Augustus revealed and Steven frowned, distressed.“What? Why didn't she want the surgery?” he asked, getting agitated.“She….”Augustus hesitated and then finally blurted out, “She thinks that whatever is happening to her, all the things, she deserves that, you leaving here, me and Lisa abandoning her, she thinks that, that tumor was a p

Shaking with grief and sorrow, Steven looked at Laura, his eyes softened and a layer of mist appeared in his eyes, she kept coming to him and he kept rejecting her. What would it take if he had spared her five minutes?He blamed himself in his heart.Seeing Steven’s getting depressed, Augustus spoke, “Whatever you did was justified Steven, It wasn’t your fault she is here today but you can save her Steven. When she was rescued from her apartment she was murmuring your name. Please bring her back, she needs you, she still wants you.”Augustus held his arm and pleaded softly.Steven looked at him surprised, he had never seen Augustus in a miserable state like this, hence he had sacrificed a lot for Laura and also paid back all his brutality before.Feeling a sense of thanking Augustus, Steven pulled him in his arms and hugged him tightly as they both needed this hug, they hugged each other tightly with slightly misty eyes.“Thank you for being with Laura when I wasn’t th

After an hour of pacing back and forth with worry and cold sweat on his forehead, finally, the door opened and the team of doctors stepped out with a long straight face.“What happened to her? Is she fine?”Steven held the doctor’s arm, losing his posture completely as the man could understand his state of mind, he blinked his eyes and then patted his shoulder in assurance.“She is fine, you can see her now..”Steven sighed with relief and then asked in nervousness, “What actually happened?”“Come inside please…”The doctor said wisely, he could see the way Steven was tense and anxious at the moment.“Please have a seat,” He said gently to Steven and then Steven sat on the sofa while his stare was fixed on Laura with deep worry written all over his face.“She had a seizure, it’s common to have a seizure when you have such a high fever.”The doctor told him calmly and
