Nicholas' POVI gazed at her in surprise. Was she genuinely claiming that Laura had called her just the day before? How could that be possible, especially when Laura's phone had been unreachable all this time?Mrs. Dickson continued to glare at me. She had posed a question, inquiring about what I might have done to Laura that led to her cutting off communication with me.I needed to provide a convincing response, making it clear that I wasn't the only one Laura had stopped communicating with. So, I didn't believe it was due to something I had done to her.Turning to Sonia, I asked, "Have you received any messages from Laura in the past few days?""No, I haven't heard from her. Initially, I thought it might be because she wanted some quiet time with her late father's relatives," she glanced at Laura's grandmother, "but now, knowing she's not here and hearing that you spoke with her yesterday has made me more concerned. What if she's in trouble? Did she sound panicked when she called? D

Nicholas' POVHe narrowed his eyes to get a better look at the person I was referring to, his forehead furrowing as he stood upright upon recognizing the individual."That's Fernando, one of your employees," he responded sternly."I'm aware he's one of my employees. You're clearly the one who hired him. What I'm inquiring about is some background information on him and his job description," I retorted, irritation evident in my voice.I hired him as the gardener a month ago. He was in desperate need of a job when I first met him. After hearing his story, I brought him home and offered him a position as our gardener.""Where is he now?" I inquired."He came last week, seeking permission to travel home because he received information about his ailing father," he raised his eyebrows, "I granted him permission.""I see. Precisely, which day of last week was this?" I tilted my head to scrutinize his face as he spoke.He gazed at the ceiling, trying to recollect, "Wednesday! He came on Wedne

Laura's POVIt had been two months since I left Nicholas and eloped with Fernando. While there was no doubt that Fernando loved me, I couldn't help but grow suspicious of his recent behavior. He started leaving early in the morning and returning late at night.One particular evening, it was already 10pm and there was still no sign of him, I couldn't shake off my suspicions that there was something more his coming home late, so I decided to wait up for him. Instead of remaining in my room, I quietly sneaked into his. I desperately hoped my fears were unfounded, but I needed to know the truth.When he returned that night, he switched on the light in his room. The sight that greeted me left me gasping in shock. His immaculate white shirt was stained with blood, and my heart sank.I questioned him about the bloodstains on his clothes, and he smiled and claimed he had been in a fight where he injured the other person, and the blood was from that individual. He insisted it was an act of sel

Laura's POVI arrived at the driveway, and the family chauffeur offered to assist me in driving the car. However, I firmly declined and proceeded to the car. I drove it out and exited through the gate. The moment I passed the iron wrought gate, I couldn't contain my joy, and I let out a scream!Was I finally free again? I wasn't even sure of the route to Nicholas' place, so I relied on Google Maps to guide me back to Sicily. I had missed them all so much. Just then, a call came in, and when I checked the caller ID, I realized it was my grandmother. I immediately answered the call."Good morning, Grandma," I murmured, releasing a sigh."How are you, Laura?" Her voice exuded a calm and soothing quality, precisely what I needed at that moment."I'm fine, Grandma. How about you?" I inquired."I'm not doing well. I need you to come back," she replied, her tone carrying a hint of sadness. I would have been quick to panic and ask her what was wrong if I didn't know better.My grandmother had

Laura's POVI locked eyes with Nicholas. His face bore a somber expression, and he remained silent, meeting my gaze without uttering a word."Did you hear what I just mentioned?" I inquired."Indeed, I heard you," he replied, lowering his gaze momentarily. "You mentioned that Fernando was dispatched to spy on me. I can't say I'm entirely surprised because I've had my suspicions about his hidden agenda.I had hoped against hope that you weren't an unwitting pawn in his deceitful scheme, that his feelings for you were genuine, and he wouldn't harm you until I could locate you."His demeanor softened, and a profound sense of relief washed over me. It was heartwarming to witness his enduring care and affection, even during my absence."It's truly comforting to hear you express that," I replied, my voice tinged with shyness.He gently cradled my face with his powerful hands. "It pains me to observe that you still doubt how deeply I love you, the lengths I'm willing to go to protect you," h
