LAURA

Until now, Laura still can't shake off what Draco said to her.

"You know what, you're fucking useless," she remembered him saying.

His words are affecting her peace of mind. She couldn't sleep last night because his words kept replaying in her mind. She shouldn't be affected by what he said, knowing it was just fueled by anger. But she couldn't help but get affected.

Why?

Because two different people told her that. She can't help but wonder if she's truly of no use. Those words were like a knife that pierced her heart, because she felt the pain.

Laura just shook her head. Instead of letting their words get to her, she thought of proving them wrong about her. Showing them she's not useless.

Like what she did and showed to her father the first time he told her she's of no use.

Miller Estate was on the verge of bankruptcy before, due to the negligence of her father. She was still studying at that time and knew nothing about managing a hacienda. Nevertheless, she did everything to s

    LAURAWhen Laura came out of the maid's quarters, she was immediately met with the sad expressions on the faces of Andi and the others when they saw her wearing the maid's uniform that Draco wanted her to wear while working, so they wouldn't get kicked out of Miller Estate.Aside from the kiss Draco demanded from her, he also wanted her to work there. He wanted to make her a maid in her own Estate. He wanted to make her suffer.No one in the entire Miller Estate knew that she and Draco were married. And she didn't want them to know.

    LAURA"What's happening here?" Laura wondered, noticing the chaos outside the Miller Estate where police officers had just arrived. A police officer approached her. "What's happening? And what are you doing here?" She asked almost consecutively as the officer drew closer, and she couldn't help but furrow her brow as she looked at him."Good afternoon, Ma'am," the officer greeted her. "I'm Lieutenant Corpuz," she introduced herself. "The Miller Estate owner contacted us, claiming there are illegal settlers living on his property," he informed her.Her expression still hadn't changed when she spoke. "I'm the owner of Miller Estate, Lieutenant Corpuz. I'm Laura Miller Williams," she introduced herself."Oh," he said. "Mr. Smith called me, Ma'am Laura. He claimed he's the new owner of the Miller Estate and showed us documents proving he's the rightful owner," he explained.He handed her a folder, which she took to examine. Her face contorted as she browsed through its contents. "And you'

    LAURALaura's grip on the steering wheel tightened as she drove back to Miller Estate. Her eyes almost narrowed to slits due to the anger she felt toward Draco. She was mad--no, she was furious. She was at her clinic when Andi called her and told her about Draco's orders.When Andi broke the news, her voice was laced with sadness, and Laura could tell she was struggling to hold back tears. Draco had ordered everyone working at Miller Estate to be kicked out, including Andi - essentially firing them all.Laura knew why Draco did that. Their family attorney had called her, informing her that he'd sent Draco the annulment papers signed by her, despite Draco's warning of consequences for annulling their marriage. "But I'll give you a heads up on what will happen if you dare to file for annulment. You'll completely lose Miller Estate. And I'll fire everyone working here at the Estate and replace them all," Laura recalled Draco's threat from their last conversation. She didn't take his t

    LAURA "Blacky's fine now, Isko. You can give him water," Laura told Isko, a Miller Estate worker responsible for the horses. Blacky was their Friesian Horse breed. She was at the clinic when Isko called about a horse acting sluggish. She rushed back to Miller Estate to examine Blacky and found that exhaustion and the hot weather were likely causes. Summer was tough on the animals. "Thank you very much, Miss Laura," Isko said to her. "You're welcome. If there's a problem here, don't hesitate to call me," she replied to him. He nodded with a smile in response. Laura didn't stay long, as she needed to return to her veterinary clinic. She had told her assistant she would be back after stepping out. She bid farewell to Isko and was about to walk towards her wrangler jeep when she stopped upon hearing her cellphone's ringtone coming from her pants pocket. She retrieved it to see who was calling and noticed it was Andi. Her brow furrowed involuntarily as she read Andi's name on the sc

    LAURA "He is Draco Atlas Smith, Laura. The man you're going to marry." Laura was momentarily speechless at her father Leo's revelation. But as the truth sank in - that the tall, piercing-eyed man was her groom-to-be - her lips parted in shock. Draco Atlas Smith was not old. He was still young, and if Laura wasn't mistaken, he was in his thirties or even older. He wasn't old as she had imagined, but rather young, tall, fair-skinned, handsome, well-built, and exuding sex appeal. Laura's gaze involuntarily rose to meet Draco's eyes, and she struggled to stifle a gasp as their eyes locked. Laura couldn't take her eyes off her. And those devilish eyes seemed familiar, but she couldn't recall where or when she had seen them. Why was he looking at her like that? She asked herself. His piercing, cold gaze was unnerving, making her want to retreat - no, run out of the library. Laura couldn't explain why, but her heart raced as she met his frosty stare. A sense of foreboding wash
