Chapter 19 CH 19: The News

(Laura’s POV)

.

The next day, I took a flight to visit my maternal grandparents. Henry had informed me that my grandmother was unwell. It was a perfect timing for me to place a distance between myself and Calvin.

After that passionate kiss we had, I had pushed him away and in a reflex, I slapped his cheeks hard. It was unintentional. The slap was not supposed to be that hard.

He had the audacity of saying I was giving him hints that I wanted him to kiss me. That had angered me more and I chased him out from my office room.

Since then, Calvin had not stopped trying to apologise to me of his behaviour. There were numerous calls from him and gifts sent to my office and home.

I just could not face him. His presence made me uncomfortable and nervous.

Walking at the street in a small town in Tuscany, I smiled while happy memories of my mother and I came back to my mind. I loved coming back to her hometown and loved seeing my jovial relatives who had always treated me good.
