William noticed that Laura had become unusually quiet after leaving the company. They were now having lunch at a restaurant not far from Anderson Corporation. The food in front of Laura looked untouched, as if she had no appetite.“Don’t you like the menu? Should I ask them to change it?” William asked her.“No, I like it. I’m just… thinking about something. It’s been bothering me,” Laura replied softly.“Is this still about Maurent?” William asked again.Laura nodded, her head lowered as if she felt guilty for worrying about something that William had already assured her would never happen.“If it bothers you that much, I’ll end the partnership with her,” William said without hesitation.“No, please don’t. Don’t mix business matters with personal ones. It’s just that… yes, I feel uneasy about that woman. It’s natural, I suppose—I’m afraid of losing you. But I do trust you. It’s just that she seems to like my husband a little too much,” Laura said honestly, expressing how uncomfortabl

Laura and Maria were now enjoying their days as women and wives—each married to a man who led a company. Although Maria’s husband, Mark, worked at a company owned by Laura, he was still a man Laura trusted deeply, enough to make him the second most important person at Asdorf Win’s Legacy.“You know, I’m really grateful to you for trusting Mark to run your company. I owe you so much,” Maria said to Laura.Laura smiled. Maria and Mark were two of the kindest people she knew. When Laura had desperately needed help, they came to her without asking for anything in return—only wanting to see her safe, happy, and free from any harm, especially from Michelle at that time.They both knew that by helping her, they were putting themselves in danger too. Yet, they never hesitated to stand by her side. Even at the very last moment, when they almost became victims of the fire, Maria didn’t leave her; she stayed and helped Laura to safety.“You may think that you owe me a lot,” Laura said softly, “b

“You have a great career—a CEO of a big company. But how shameless of you, trying to steal a man who already has a wife?” Maria said angrily.Meanwhile, Laura remained silent after hearing Maurent’s confession—that her relationship with William had started as something forced, though feelings eventually grew between them.Still, something about it frightened Laura. What if William had stayed with her only because she was pregnant at the time? Or was it truly because he had already fallen in love with her?Those thoughts stirred uncertainty in her mind. It wasn’t that she doubted William’s words, but she feared that a woman who wanted her husband might do anything to get him.If Maurent was capable of such deceit, it wasn’t impossible that William could one day choose her. The mere thought made Laura uneasy. She didn’t want to think negatively, but Maurent’s presence and her words had planted fear—fear of losing William.“I’m just someone trying to fight for what I want—is that wrong?”

William and Laura were spending time together, talking about many things that made them appear even closer than before. Yet something was still bothering Laura—the matter of the terminated partnership with Maurent. She knew it would cause losses for William, especially since he would have to pay a considerable amount in compensation for ending the collaboration on his own accord, all because of her.“Won’t it cause problems if the partnership is canceled? Will, I really don’t mind. Even though I’m upset with Maurent, I don’t want this to affect your work—it wouldn’t be right, would it?” Laura asked, worried about William and his company.“I was the one who wanted it ended. I don’t care about the money—I can always earn it back. But if you were to get hurt, if it could destroy our relationship or make me lose you, that’s something I could never accept. No one could ever replace you—not with any woman out there. Maurent means nothing compared to you. And if you’re worried about what oth

Laura was overjoyed after receiving the results she had been hoping for. The doctor who examined her was confident that Laura was pregnant—approximately four weeks along. To be certain, the doctor advised her to visit a hospital and see an obstetrician. The news of her pregnancy filled Laura with immense happiness, and she couldn’t wait to share it with her husband.“Will, please come home soon. I’m so happy right now,” Laura murmured with a bright smile.Meanwhile, William received a call from the head maid at the Anderson residence, informing him that Laura wasn’t feeling well and that the family doctor had been called to examine her. Hearing that, William immediately decided to rush home, deeply worried about his wife’s condition.He couldn’t shake the thought that Laura had seemed perfectly fine just the day before. Why had she suddenly fallen ill?When William arrived home, he went straight to their bedroom, where Laura was lying on the bed fast asleep. Seeing her resting peacefu
