LAURA Laura took a deep sigh as she stopped in front of the library door of her father, Leo. Her father had called her to the mansion because he had something important to tell her. Laura had no idea what her father wanted to discuss, but she agreed to meet him anyway. When it came to her father, she shouldn't disobey his wishes. She couldn't afford to defy him, or he would get angry. Laura knocked three times on the door. "Come in," she heard her father's voice after a while. She turned the door handle and entered. As she looked up to where her father was sitting, she couldn't help but pause in surprise at his appearance. It had been almost a month since she last saw him, and she was shocked at the drastic change. He looked older, stressed, and thinner, with dark circles under his eyes, as if he hadn't slept well. Was he ill? "Take a seat, Laura," her father said to her in a cold voice. She stepped forward and sat down in the visitor's chair in front of him. "What did you wa

LAURA They say marriage is supposed to be the happiest day for a woman. But for Laura, that wasn't true. Instead of feeling joyful, she felt the opposite. It was as if the weight of the world had come crashing down on her. Why? Because today was the day she would marry Draco. It would be a simple civil wedding, with only Margarette, her father, and the judge as witnesses to their union. Laura had no choice but to accept her fate. She hadn't gotten the chance to talk to Draco when he visited the mansion. She had expected her father to call her to introduce her to Draco, as promised, but it didn't happen. She had been willing to plead with Draco, to ask for his help without demanding anything in return. Maybe she could have persuaded him. Her father simply told her that the wedding was going ahead as planned. In fact, Draco had taken care of everything, and a date had already been set for their marriage. Laura hadn't expected the wedding to be just a day away. It seemed Draco

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

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

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
