What Laura didn't know was that the ownership of this villa belonged to her.
Max didn't tell her anything, including the people who were hired to take care of Mrs. Davies.
He all did background checks on them to make sure that they were trustworthy and reliable.
He seemed to be more concerned about this than his own personal matters.
This was also the reason why Laura would be so easily touched by him.
He was really trying to help.
And he genuinely wanted to make her life better.
When she thought of this, she couldn't help but turn around to give Max a grateful look.
At that moment, Max didn't say anything when Laura was showing Mrs. Davies around the house.
As Fannie walked around, she seemed to like the villa very much.
"It's magnificent! It's spacious and cozy."
As she did so, she slightly blamed Laura in a whisper for spending all the money to buy a great house.
"These things must cost you a fortune. Laura, even though you earn more money now, you can't squander all of it. Just live the way we used to. In fact, I think your apartment before was pretty good."
Laura smiled helplessly.
"Mum, the paparazzi stayed outside my apartment 24/7. We can't live there now. I don't wanna be photographed."
Fannie then remembered that Laura had said that she had to talk to her about the reason why she couldn't live in that house, but Laura had never got the chance to tell her.
When Fannie asked Laura last time, Laura had only said that she would tell her when she left the hospital.
Now that she was out of the hospital, Laura should be able to tell her mother about this.
Thinking of this, Fannie asked, "Laura, what was it with those reporters outside your apartment you told me last time?"
Laura's face turned gloomy on hearing this.
She rubbed her eyebrows and said softly, "Nothing. It's just that someone's spreading rumors about me online. Mum, don't worry. This happened before and I don't really care."
Fannie frowned slightly when she heard that.
"I don't surf the internet, so I don't know what's going on exactly. But, if they've gone too far, you could just sue them. So what if you are a celebrity? You deserve everyone's respect. And you certainly can not be stalked to your own place and you can't allow them to gossip about your private life."
Fannie was always mild-mannered, so it was a little surprised for Laura to see her mother being so tough about this.
For a moment, Laura couldn't help but laugh.
She nodded, "Okay. Mum, I got it. Don't worry. I'll do as you say."
After saying that, Laura was about to tell Fannie about what happened between her and Max.
As she thought about it, she turned around to look at Max.
Maybe because they were in love and they connected, Max was looking right at her at the same time.
Their eyes met. With just one look at each other, they both understood everything.
Laura smiled at Fannie and said, "Mum, let's go sit in the living room. There's just something I want to tell you."
Fannie saw Laura's expression, and she felt that Laura did have something to say.
At this moment, she was a little puzzled, "What is it?"
"Let's go downstairs to talk."
