Laura’s Victory Second Chance

Chapter 45



Through David’s relentless efforts, Laura successfully changed her surname to Godfrey. At last, she felt a sense of belonging.

David arrived at Laura’s rented apartment early in the morning “Lau, Dad pulled a lot of strings to change your name in such a short time.”

“Thanks, Dad” Laura could sense he was hesitant and knew he was concerned about the shares.

Seeing that she didn’t mention the transfer of shares, David continued to please her. Lau, you left in such a hurry last time. Your sister has been wanting to apologize. She and your mom are waiting outside”

“Let them in,” said Laurn.

David didn’t realize that Laura was now the one in control of their dynamic. The next moment, Emma and Olivia entered, carrying a lot of bags

Olivia surveyed the apartment Laura had rented. Despite David’s considerable efforts, he had failed to uncover the identity of the man behind Laura. Olivia couldn’t detect any signs of a man living here. Thinking back to how Cedric had addressed Laura as Mrs. Ryan, Olivia wondered what had happened

Maybe that man has grown bored and dumped Laura But after thinking carefully, she found that unlikely, after all, he had spent several billion dollars for Laura and therefore his interest in her couldn’t fade that quickly.

The only conclusion Olivia could draw was that the man was already tied down, making it inconvenient for him to show himself, and Laura was merely his mistress.

With that thought, Olivia felt somewhat reassured, thinking, Laura, no matter how proud you are, you’re just a mistress–how much better can you possibly be than me?

Emma, on the other hand, wasn’t caught up in such thoughts; she was busy rummaging through jewelry for Laura.

“Lau, look! This is the gemstone necklace I chose especially for you, and here’s a diamond set. Let’s try them on. Emma was as warm and accommodating as a sales assistant, eagerly helping Laura put on the jewelry.

David shot Olivia a glare. Olivia looked at Laura, who was lounging on a leather sofa in her loungewear, yet exuded an air of elegance that felt

Innate.

Olivia was adaptable to achieve her goals, she didn’t care about losing face.

She pulled out a sapphire ring and knelt by Laura’s feet Laura, try this one on. You’re so pretty; it will look magnificent on you”

Laura raised her hand and let the light catch the ring, the gem sparkling brightly. “If I’m not mistaken, this was a gift from Mr. Reed to you. Laura, your memory is impressive. But how could I ever be worthy of such a ring! It looks much better on you,” Olivia replied

Laura smiled. “It does look nice, but she casually took off the ring and tossed it on the floor, carelessly adding, “It’s dirty; I don’t want your things

Memories of Olivia with Robert flooded her mind. Laura remembered what Olivia had said. Laura, the man you love most is mine now. You have nothing left. The Sharpe family doesn’t want you, and neither does the Godfrey family. Plus, you’re mired in scandal. In this vast world, where can you possibly go? Why don’t you kneel down and beg me for a way out?”

Laura couldn’t shake the images of her past self, weak and helpless, kneeling and pleading with Olivia to spare her.

“Laura, if I spare you, what about me? You can only blame yourself for taking my position all these years. That was what Olivia had said.

Laura opened her eyes, realizing Olivia was the one kneeling now, not her. Still, she felt it was not enough. Olivia hadn’t lost everything yet, and Laura’s gaze darkened with simmering hatred

“Lau, I know you held 1 iv responsible, but it was Robert who forced her to do that You know we can’t compete with the Brown family. Your dad has interests with Christopher, and Liv did that only for our sake. Emma said.

The sound of the slap echoed through the room, yet Laura didn’t even glance up, as if sh done is inexcusable, one slap is not enough,” Laura said coolly

Olivia fell silent, while David said indifferently, “Quickly apologize to Laura!”

Reluctantly, Olivia continued to slap her own face. Seeing the growing red marks on her face, Laura felt as if she than feeling avenged, she felt angrier.

After a dozen slaps, Emma couldn’t bear it anymore. “Lau, your sister needs to go to school tomorrow. Maybe you should…”

“Then she can stop,” said Laura.

A trickle of blood ran from Olivia’s mouth, yet she managed a weak smile. Thank you for forgiving me.

Laura.

Laura chuckled. “When did I say I would forgive you?”

Olivia was left speechless, thinking. How dare this bitch

David wasn’t planning to leave yet, so he intervened. “Lau, your sister will gain your forgiveness through her actions in the future. It’s fine if you don’t want to forgive her now. By the way, since you’ve been alone these past few days, I had your mom buy some of your favorite foods to help you replenish.”

Emma and David entered the kitchen with groceries, leaving Laura and Olivia in the living room

With

a tears welling in her eyes, Olivia looked up at Laura. “Laura, my reputation is ruined. I truly regret what I’ve done. Why can’t you just forgive

Laura shot her a condescending look. “Stop playing the victim in front of me. I’m not a man, so I’m not falling for your games.” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Laura, I genuinely want to apologize,” Olivia said.

“Genuinely!” Laura scoffed, picking up a fruit knife from the table and brandishing it in her hand. “If you disfigure your own face, then I’ll believe your sincerity

Olivia widened her eyes, purposely raising her voice. “Laura, how can you do this to me?”

Laura firmly gripped her chin, holding the fruit knife close to Olivia’s face. “Olivia, your dear parents are currently scheming to take those shares from me. Do you think your plea will work! Even if I were to disfigure you, do you really think David would spare even a moment to grieve for

you!”

Olivia felt a chill run down her spine. “Laura, you are crazy!”

“I am crazy! I’ve become this way because of all of you!” Laura shouted.

Seeing the madness in Laura’s eyes, Olivia let out a scream. “Dad, Mom, Laura’s going to kill met

Emma was about to rush out, but David grabbed her arm. “The girls are just messing around; Lau’s only trying to scare her. There’s no way she would actually hurt her. We have to let Lau vent her anger, or she won’t give me the shares.

What David had said was exactly what Laura had expected. She smiled and said. “You see? Do they even care about
