In less than twenty minutes, Feran drove into the parking lot of the castle of ma'am Miguel. "Aww, my dear son is here," Ma'am Miguel said with a broad smile as Frank walked side-by-side with Laura, Feran walking behind. "Hello, mother," Frank said as they walked into the dining room where everyone in the family was already seated. He greeted everyone and took the first reserved seat by the right side. "Good evening grandmother," Laura said, forcing a smile. Ma'am Miguel stared at her and nodded In acknowledgement of her greeting. "Good evening, grandmother," Feran said, trying to seem cool. Ma'am Miguel glanced at him and ignored him, taking a sip from her glass of wine. "Good evening everyone," Feran said but only got a strange silence as a reply. "So, where's Mitchel? On her way?" Ma'am Miguel asked her son. "Well, she couldn't make it," Frank simply said. "Of course. I bet she couldn't bear to face us," Frank's younger sister, seated across from him with her husband, said

Mitchel ignored Feran's request and was about to raise her voice at Laura when Feran, seeing she wasn't giving in to his quest, grabbed her wrist. He stared strongly at Mitchel to her surprise.Mitchel was appalled. She had never seen Feran behave like this before. She wanted to scold him more but she found out that she had suddenly lost her voice under Feran's stern, so she slowly released Laura without any further ado.Frank walked up behind his wife to mediate.Mitchel despised Feran even more now. She swore she would separate him from Laura. And make Laura divorce him if that's the last thing she does on the planet,earth."Let's just let go of this, Mitchel," Frank said. Laura inhaled and headed into her room. Mitchel cast Feran a glare and headed into her room as he walked into the kitchen, followed behind by her husband.After washing the dishes, Feran found Laura staring at him after he went into the room. He thought she was worried about how to solve the problem of getting to

Mark was drinking an exotic wine in his office with his girlfriend, pre-celebrating Laura's failure which was laughable but fun for him."So, we're both here having a pre-celebration of Laura's big failure which hasn't been really confirmed. It doesn't seem all right, you know," his girlfriend said, dropping her glass on the desk. "It's right because I'm sure she failed. Just in a little while, one of my persons which I had sent to keep an eye on her would walk in," Mark said and his girlfriend nodded and took her glass.Just like he had said, after a few minutes, both heard a knock on the door and a guy walked in."So, what happened?" Mark asked him."Sir, I went to the new company and saw your sister walking out with a low spirit," he said.Mark's lip curled into a smirk and he dismissed the guy, bursting into laughter the next minute as he arose."I told you, babe, she failed.""Yay, that's awesome," his girlfriend said and giggled, biting her lower lip."Now, I'll start arranging

Mark couldn't bring himself to commend Laura for striking the deal but he unwillingly submitted to his grandmother's decision."You're right grandmother. Laura…I will give you the full respect you deserve onwards," Mark said, using every nerve he got in his body to hide his unhappiness and disappointment.He put on an eased look and forced a smile at Laura, seeming to become well-behaved and calm. But secretly, Mark despised Laura for her guts and he became determined to undermine her future at all cost. He swore not to let her go above him and stand on his head for he was the future heir to the family's business; the favorite grandson."That's better," Ma'am Miguel said, rising up. "Now this meeting has come to an end."Ma'am Miguel walked out and so did everyone left the room one by one excerpt from Mark who stood at a spot for a while, gnashing his teeth in fury."What's wrong, babe?" Mark's girlfriend asked the minute he walked into his office with a gloom."Laura managed to get

When the manager excused himself to answer an important call after Mark introduced himself, Mark proudly prepared his speeches in his head which he was planning to use to win the heart of the manager so he could completely forget about Laura.His mind flashed back to how Laura sounded cheesed off and frustrated when he called last night and he couldn't help but let out a soft laugh.The manager returned his gaze to him after ending the call and Mark gently cleared his throat, quitting his laughter."Mr Mark, so you're from the Miguel Mega Empire, right?" The manager asked as he gestured at Mark to follow him, walking down the hallway to his office."Yes. Mark Miguel," Mark proudly introduced, adjusting his tie and walking side-by-side with the manager."So, um, where's she?" The manager asked, glancing back in search of someone.Mark creases his forehead, oblivious of who he was asking about. "Sorry? Who Sir?" Mark asked."Laura. She was the one whom I signed the deal with. So, where
