Chapter 136

Laura was working now. She was so busy with her job that she barely had time for herself.

Even if she did have free time, she would never let them take advantage of her again.

Matteo hadn’t expected the once soft–spoken and obedient Laur to become so unyielding.

She had changed. She was no longer the woman who used to tolerate everything silently.

Matteo thought, ‘If she dares to stand up to ine like this, someone must have influenced or is backing her.’

“Laura, why are you acting just like your sister, Doris? She’s always been rebellious against your father. Now you’re speaking to me like this, refusing to come back and take care of my mother and sister–did she put you up to this?” Matteo said.

Laura almost laughed. She thought people like Matteo were so self–absorbed, so convinced of their superiority, that they never considered the possibility that they might be wrong.

“Matteo, you’re unbelievable,” Laura sneered. Her heart had long gone cold, and she no longer cared if she offended him.

“You hit me–I endured it. Your mother insulted me–I endured it. Your sister, a married woman, chose to live with her parents instead of her in–laws and treated me like a servant–I endured it. Even when you threw me out in the middle of the night, I endured it.

“But I won’t endure it anymore. You all pushed me to this point. married into the Webb family and worked tirelessly, never complaining, never asking for anything. I owe you nothing. From now on, I won’t be the pushover I used to be. Find someone else to serve you–I’m done.”

“Laura, you’ve really changed, huh?” Matteo snapped. “Fine. If you have the guts, don’t ever come back!”

“I’d love nothing more,” Laura said before hanging up.

Ever since that stormy night when Matteo had thrown her out, she had never once considered returning.

The only thing she wanted was Arianna. Now that Arianna was with her, she had nothing left to miss about the Webb family.

Doris hadn’t heard Matteo’s words, but from Laura’s responses, she could guess most of what had been said.

When Laura had devoted herself entirely to that family, they had looked down on her, humiliated her, and kicked her out.
