Laura sat comfortably, she was able to stretch a little after sitting still for almost an hour in front of her desk. He's eyes were sore. Kim knocked once, then entered. A slender young lady—though she was the same age as Laura, with Laura older by a few months—with bright eyes and a cute smile. Kim was her P.A."Here's another invitation from the Willsbury Queens. I don't know why you keep ignoring them," she said, pulling a seat forward to face Laura. In the span of four years, Laura and Kim had turned into friends. "I am not interested in the town's politics." Laura simply said. She was feeling chilly from the A/C and her eyes gazed the room for where she had hung her jacket. Kim jumped up to turn up the heat on the thermostat and Laura was grateful for that quick act. "Politics affects us all, whether you want to get involved or not." She said sitting down again, "besides, if they've been inviting you, then it clearly means that you'll be rated highly. You could just easily fil

Thomas stormed out, vexed that Laura would chase him out like that. She has someone else? Who the hell was that someone else?He had forgotten he was with this son of a bitch Conor. He sat up straight when they got in the car. "I know you must be wondering why I did and said all of that. But you should know they were all lies." He sighed, "see, she has done something wrong to us. I love Rita more than any woman in the world so I would never cheat on her!"Conor nodded. "I understand sir. Truth is, what your ex wife did years ago was not making sense. She sold most of your items, put you out on the line making investors and your family doubt you. She lied that you cheated on her when she must had been plotting her runaway since. Who knows if that child she claimed to have was not even yours in the first place. I mean no one is to trust her!"Thomas blinked. How did he know so much about his past? And what had he meant about that child not being his? He cleared his throat. "I see. I'm g

"Sir," Justin started. "They have been on your neck since like 2 months now. You should give them a chance."Leroy rolled his eyes. "I am on my break. My shift starts by 8pm. Let me rest while I can,"Justin did not listen and kept on pestering. Well, to him he was only giving his young master the advise he needed to hear. Tall and very much healthy, no one would believe Justin to be almost 70 years old. "They're just trying to socialize. They have this beautiful daughter, maybe they only want you to meet her, and who knows what might happen from there?" He said. Leroy, crashed on the sofa, stretched to grab the mug of tea on the table in front of him. Justin simply advanced forward and poured him the tea in a teacup with which Leroy muttered a simple; "thank you"."What are you so afraid of? You know you are reaching that age when you should get married. I had to reject their gifts again today, but they were stubborn about this card. It can be used to summon anyone in the househol

Laura was still fuming with rage when Tania came to announce, "Ma'am, you have a guest." Laura frowned. It was past 10pm. What guest could it be? She got up and grabbed the shirt of her night gown, swinging it on. A man was standing in the living room, stethoscope around his neck.This brought a frown to Laura's face immediately. "Leroy?" She folded her arms beneath her breast. "Don't you have patients to save?"He advanced closer like he owned the room."Emergency detour." He simply said. Deep down, Laura was impressed he managed to show his face after she kept hanging up on him. She took a stroll to the couch and crashed, with a sigh escaping her lips. "I told you I can handle Thomas myself."He joined her, sitting next to her. His voice was calm, "I know you can. I'm sorry I didn't let you know at once." Laura glared," Leroy, you had no right talking to him."This made him shrug. "He approached me." Then smartly, he casually dropped the information seeing Laura's blazing eyes. "

Leroy paused, got up then knelt beside Lia. Everyone were trying to be calm without over reacting. She didn't look like she was joking, 5 years old or not, Lia was a smart kid. "I'm... someone who cares about you."Lia smiled, then gave a big nod. "I'm glad. Mommy, see there's someone who cares about me just as you do. It's okay if that Thomas guy is a monster. I don't want to have a monster dad." Laura nodded and gave a smile, but her attention was really on Leroy. She certainly was seeing something new. Why was he being so nice to her? And close, like she meant something more to him? Men were so...!"Alright. We just wanted to see who you've brought home." Tamara said but Laura cut her off,"not that I bring men home frequently, or ever. Or even woman. I don't...I don't know why she put it like that." She realized she was mumbling to herself now.Leroy was about to get up when Lia wrapped her arms around his neck in a hug. "Goodnight, Leroy. I care about you too." She said then w
