Chapter SixtyHis Irresistible Touch 2Olivia He saw me with Edie, and Edna’s plan must be working, he seemed jealous. “You are mine, Olivia.” He said softly, leaning over to me.I closed my eyes, feeling his lips on the back of my neck, and his fingers tracing the length of my body, down to my spine.His hand went down and his fingers hurtfully, but also deliciously.I felt myself being lifted up, I could no longer feel my body on the bed.It was like there was a darkness swirling around me, strong and warm hands turning me on, and cupping my breasts.He kissed down my chest, settling between my legs as he placed it gently on his chest.Slowly, he brought his middle finger down and slid it gently over my folds. I threw my head back, my legs shaking with the way he kept on moving his finger in and out of me.And again, he did it. This time, his finger slipped between and gathered my wetness, he parted my parts with his two fingers and found my clit., rubbing it in small circles.I c
Chapter Sixty-nineThe Birthday Eve 1OliviaIt had been weeks since I screamed out on top of my lungs and agreed to his claim that I was his, but nothing has changed since then.Sebastian was still the same man, he was still the same one who never cared about me or whatever I do, he was the one who doesn’t want to know what I do or where I go to, but there was one thing, he never wants me around Edie.He claimed me as his with hot and intense rounds of intimate moments, but he never said or did anything more, he was just the same man I had known, unbothered.He never lets me go out to see Edna and Edie anymore, and he almost took the phone Edie gave me fro me, thank goodness that I was quick to hide the phone from him, he would have destroyed my chances of ever getting to talk to them again.With the phone, I would text and call them everyday to make more plans, but none of that seemed to be working with Sebastian, he still did not seem to want me around him, he doesn’t seem like he
Chapter Sixty-twoThe Universe Against HerOliviaStumbling back to the street, Edna’s plan kept ringing in my head, I knew it was a risky one, but it was worth trying.It would be better to do something than not do anything and disappoint them, they would skin me alive.Even though I regretted making that promise to them without proper findings about their mom at first, I still wanted to make it right by them and try my best to fulfill the promise I made to them. I knew it could go the other way and one big thing I was scared about was that the one of the triplets who loved me before would end up hating me.Therefore, in order to avoid that from happening, I would have to try my best to keep to what I said, even though it would be impossible to bring their dead mom back alive.I held out a loud sigh as I walked through the street, thank the heavens for the presence of Edna in my life, i thanked the heavens again for bringing her back, just at the right time. What would I have done?
Chapter Sixty-threeAll He Had To OfferOliviaMy heart raced with fear, what do I do? What should I say to him? How do I explain myself? How do I explain this position I was in? I was just about to take this man’s money, or maybe stealing was the right word for it. I was about to steal his money, and he caught me, red handed.It felt as though my legs had been glued to the spot and I couldn’t move, I maintained the same position I was when he got in, my hand were right above the box and my legs a bit stretched out, I couldn’t stand back up.I kept staring at me, and the fact that he just stood still at the door, staring back at me only got me scared, I wondered what could be going on in his mind. Would be believe whatever I have to say? What exactly do I even have to say?There was no way to explain my actions, there was no way to explain that I didn’t try to steal when that was in fact what I was trying to do.I still stood frozen there, until he asked, “what are you doing?”I found
Chapter Sixty-fourThe Birthday 1Olivia“You three should take your cakes and blow out the candle.” Sebastian’s mom said, “and don’t forget to make a wish.” She added.The kids nodded and took their places, each of them standing at the front of a palace maid. They counted to three and closed their eye, silently whispering their wish before blowing out the candle.Everyone clapped and cheered and I joined in, nothing about all that was happening was exciting to me, I just wanted everything to happen and we get done with the day.My anxiety was already taking the best of me and I just couldn’t keep up with it.“Now, blow out the candle on that cake together.” Sebastian’s mom continued, leading the kids to the cake with the fourth palace made. “Make a wish again and blow it out.” She instructed.They held their hands and counted to three again before blowing out the candle. Everyone clapped once again.“We need to start preparing now.” Sebastian’s mom said, taking a quick glance at her
Chapter Sixty-fiveThe Birthday 2Olivia“You two should sit at the space made for you.” Sebastian’s mom said and ushered the two of us to our seats.My legs hit each other multiple times before we got there, I took my seat slowly beside Sebastian. I took a quick glance at him, wondering what he was thinking and what he might do if things didn’t go as I planned, would he maybe kick me out of his house or break off the struggling relationship between us.My heart raced with fear, I wasn’t sure of what this man would do to me if things didn’t go well and I end up ruining her precious daughter’s day, but I just wanted to try my best first, even though it might and might not go well.I held out a loud sigh when the party coordinator began to speak again.“We are all gathered here to witness the 6th birthday of the Sinclair’s girls. They have been so wonderful and such smart kids at that tender age, they are a year older on this special day and we have to make it more special for them.” He
Chapter Sixty-sixThe Birthday 3OliviaI got the room, closing the door behind and leaning on it, I didn’t know if this plan was going to work or not, I didn’t know if I should go on with it or just get back there and let it known to the kids that their mom can’t come to their party, I was confused.I shut my eyes for this brief moment, wondering what I should do and what would be best for me. I knew if it went the way I didn’t want, then I would have to deal with Sebastian’s wrath, as well as the kids wrath. The house which I was fighting to make a space for myself might end up being a hell for me.I shook my head, just the thought of that scared me so much, I couldn’t let that happen, I had to make sure this plan of mine works.I opened my eyes and pulled out my phone, scrolling through the pictures Edna had saved on there.With that, I held out a loud sigh and headed for the closet which Sebastian he warned me not to enter. He said the closet was just for his ex-wife, Sophia, and
Chapter Sixty-sevenLosing It AllOliviaI watched as Sebastian opened his eyes one after the other and his kids hugged him almost immediately.“Dad!” They murmured, “we were so scared, what happened to you?”Sebastian only shook his head and pulled his kids closer to himself. “I’m sorry for scaring you, my princesses.” He murmured.“What happened to him, doctor?” Sebastian’s mom asked, “why did he have to pass out like that? I’m sure there must be something wrong with him.”Sebastian stood up from the cushion he was laid on and walked to his mom, “I am fine, mom, there is nothing wrong with me.” He said to her and turned to me allow immediately.My heart stopped beating as soon as his eyes met mine, what do I do? What do I say to him? How do I explain to him that I just wanted to make the kids happy and I didn’t mean to destroy their birthday?I knew no matter what I say or do, he wouldn’t believe me, neither him nor his kids were ready to listen to me.“Sebastian, I…I was…”“Not a s
Chapter One Hundred And ThirteenThe Perfect Family 2Olivia“I am glad to finally meet you, father-in-law,” Sebastian bowed.I had never seen him bow for anyone except his parents.“By the time your survey is done and you’re back on your feet, you’ll have to share a drink with me for taking good care of your daughter.”Dad smiled again; his struggle to speak continued.“We should leave now; I can see that you’re heading out,” Bert said, and I nodded at him. “I will see you when you get back.”“You should keep this with you till we see again.” I handed the box over to him.“But you…”“No but, Bert. Keep it with you. We will also head out now.” I responded and turned away immediately because I knew he might want to argue.We got into the car with the kids and headed for the beach resort, which was only known to him. The kids and I sang along with the song that was playing on the radio, and Sebastian eventually joined us. It was such a happy journey to the beach. When the kids stopped si
Chapter One Hundred And TwelveThe Perfect Family 1OliviaThe chirping of the morning birds woke me up from my quality sleep. I opened my eyes one after the other and lay there on the bed for minutes, remembering how sweet and loving my life has been since the past few days.It’s been over a week since all that happened, and we have watched Sophia getting the deserved punishment for what she did to us; she was sentenced to years in jail. I was glad that I got what I wanted at the end of everything, the perfect and loving family I prayed for.I thought I had already lost the child I gave birth to years ago; I thought I was never going to see him. Still, I never knew that the heavens were preparing something special for me. It was just as if these kids came into Sebastian’s world to secure a place for me before bringing me in. Now, I was with my kids and my loving husband, one who would do anything for me.After the ordeal at the hospital, we never heard from Sara and Mitchie again, an
Chapter One Hundred And ElevenThe Biological MotherOliviaThe distant echoes and cries seemed to call me back from a long sleep. I gasped and jumped up; my head made a loud noise as my eyes were hit with the sunlight.Slowly, I laid back on the bed, trying to remember and understand what had happened. My ears were still so blurry, and I could still hear my name like it was being called from a distance. I could see people staring right at me in the face, fanning me and calling on me, but I couldn’t tell who they were; the blurriness in my eyes wouldn’t let me.I closed my eyes back, trying to chase away the blurriness, and when a hand grabbed mine, the warm touch made me open my eyes again, and I could see clearly now. Sebastian and the kids, they were the ones there.“Thank goodness, thank goodness,” I heard him murmur.“Olivia!” The kids chorused.I couldn’t say anything; I tried to remember it all, how I got here and what happened to me, but it was hard. I closed my eyes back, try
Chapter One Hundred And Ten The Surrogate MotherSebastianI could no longer hold back; I had to see her, I had to see for myself that the doctors were saying the truth because I still couldn’t believe it. I jumped up from the floor and pushed the door to the ward room open. I met one of the nurses there who was trying to cover her up.“Stop!” I yelled and pushed her away. “She’s not dead; she can’t be dead. She is just sleeping; she is just trying to scare me.” I fell beside her and held her hand.The coldness of her head, the now stiff limbs and closed eyes, her pale face and dry lips, the flat and steady tone of the pulse rate monitor, all of that was a testament to my emptiness. She was gone like they said, and I was left to figure myself out.“No! Olivia!” I screamed out, tears gushing down my eyes.I shook my head multiple times, I pinched myself countless times; it couldn’t be true. It was just a terrible nightmare that I could still wake up from.“Please don’t punish me this
Chapter One Hundred And NineSorrows. Prayers.SebastianI shook my head, struggled, and pinched myself. I closed and opened my eyes, blinked several times just to be sure that I wasn’t seeing and making up things, that what I watched was real, that what I heard was the truth, but it was hard.How could Sophia do this to me? I felt more miserable than before, I felt dumb and used. How could I have believed all that she showed me for love? I could remember how she was so persistent, how she kept on asking the pins and passcode of everything I possessed; I thought she was just curious.How could I have been so dumb? I hung my head; I thought I possessed so much authority, I thought I was a man people looked up to, but I was nothing. I was just an empty barrel, someone who would mistake obsession for love, one who could be easily manipulated.I had never felt vulnerable in my entire life, but watching all that, I realized that I had been more than vulnerable; I also played dumb. After I
Chapter One Hundred And EightThe Final HearingOliviaBert had refused to go home the previous night, he stated that he wouldn’t be calm after leaving me all alone. I was glad that he was here, because it wouldn’t have been easy or even the same without him, I was grateful to him.He was always there for me, unlike my stepmom and stepsister, they weren’t even bothered about what was going on in my family, they didn’t even call me once to ask how it was all going. I hope that someday they would realize their mistakes and apologize for it.“Good morning, Vivi.” Bert came out of the room and pulled me into his embrace.I felt so calm and safe with him. Even though Bert was much more younger than me, he had that leading ability and aura that made him feel like an elder brother to me, maybe because of his gender, but he had always been protective and supporting.“How are you?” He asked and I nodded at him. “Are you sure you don’t want to eat anything before we leave? You know you have to
Chapter One Hundred And SevenThe Truth Behind The Night 2OliviaGetting back to the quiet and empty home, I left Edie and Bert standing in the main room and rushed up, not considering my condition.There was no importance of my condition and life is Sebastian wasn’t there, I had grown too fond of him that living without him seemed so impossible, I couldn’t imagine that. After we made up and began to live a happy and fulfilling life, I never imagined staying without him, it never came to me that there might be a time I wouldn’t be able to be with him, I would have planned and thought about how to deal with it.But who would wish bad on themselves? I got to the room and stopped for some minutes, resting on the door as I tried to catch my breath. Even though my life or my baby would be of no importance if Sebastian wasn’t there because he was the one made me, I still had to look after myself and the baby.I knew I would get something that would help him out from there, I knew I would
Chapter One Hundred And SixThe Truth Behind The Night 1Olivia“Sebastian!” I stood up and rushed to him as soon as he was brought into the waiting room.I didn’t know he kept avoiding eyes contact with me throughout the trial, he didn’t even look at me once and that kept tearing my heart apart.“Why did you do that, Olivia?” He asked and I could see the pain and hopelessness in his eyes. “Why did you have them adjourn the case?” He asked.“We did it because of you, we know there is something suspicious about this case and we need to find that.” Attorney Fred said.“He is right, Sebastian, we need to bring you out of here.” I added.“You shouldn’t have done that, Olivia.” He shook his head and took his seat. “It wouldn’t change anything, I will still get the same judgment and sentence.” He shook his head again. “Doing this won’t change my fate, Olivia.”“But we still have to try, you can’t just let you get punished for what you didn’t do.”“I did it.” He said briskly. “I did it all,
Chapter One Hundred And FiveThe First TrialSebastianStepping out of the van and standing in front of the courtroom made my heart raced, it felt like I had seen this before, like I had seen this scene before, just like I saw it all coming but didn’t act well enough to avoid it.I knew there was no other way out now, I would have to face the truth and accept whatever punishment they give to me, because I deserve it all. I stared at my handcuffed hands, this was what I was scared of, this was the reason I tried to stay away from any other woman and even Olivia for those months after our marriage.Now, I was face to face with my fear, I was facing my reality and there was no escape for me. If only I had told everyone the truth about what happened then, if I had told them what happened that night, maybe it would have been easier to get away from this, but now, there was no way out.“Come on.” The cop said and grabbed my hand, dragging me into the courtroom.At the door, we met with Sop
