"Don't you watch where you're going? How dare you?" She spat angrily while I rubbed my bruised cheeks that has been brutalized. She was the one who hit me and she was the one who was also yelling at the same time.

"If you had let me apologize then—"

"Are you still talking right back at me?" She cut me short. "You stepped on me you idiot. I should hit you again but I would just try my best not to. Now get out!" She yelled at me. I looked around to find everyone staring at me, everyone including Davion. When our eyes met, he looked from me back to the reporter who had hit me before walking away.

I felt hurt that he had abandoned me in such manner. I mean, I know that I asked him to stay away from me but I was his employee. Shouldn't he step up to help me? Isn't that what bosses do for their workers? He was just so annoying on a whole lot of levels.

"You might be Davion's employee but that doesn't give you the right to act more than your status. Filthy peasant." She glared at me

I know that I have been nothing but a meanie throughout today but I have no other choice but to do so.She was the one who requested that we should remain professional and in as much as I didn't want to, I had no choice to comply. It was her wish after all and I didn't want to rush her.I won't have to lie though. I felt kinda heartbroken when she turned down my breakfast proposal in the morning. I liked her a lot but all my efforts to make her like me back somehow proved abortive. Not like I could complain though.

    OLIVIA.I was shocked that Davion had stood up for me. I didn't think that he would do something so selfless for me. It made me had a rethink if I maybe did the right thing by declining his request to be my friend. He wasn't so bad after all.Although I loved how he stood up for me but I didn't like how upset it made him. The hell! I almost shit my pants when he yelled at the people present in the board. Damn!And as if it wasn't enough, he had asked me to continue. I don't know if I should feel happy or sad about it. The look on their faces told me that they still didn't approve of me speaking on his behalf but he had specifically asked me to so it wasn't like I had any choice than to continue.I explained what was written on the paper to the best of my ability, making sure to highlight the merits and demerit of what this project might cost us.

    DAVION.I couldn't believe my eyes at the scene that was being displayed on the huge advertisement screen outside the company. Who on earth would stoop so low as to play this in public for the whole world to see? What exactly was the world turning into now?I turned around to look at Olivia who was already lost in the scene that was played in front of us. I clenched and unclenched my fists beside me. I couldn't believe that something like this had happened without my prior knowledge.I heard the stifled laughter from behind me as the reporters gathered around us, taking snaps and pictures of us while I fumed in anger."What exactly is this Olivia?" I pointed at the screen and she swallowed, unable to meet my gsze."It's nothing Sir. Please, let's just go." She made to leave but I pulled her back by her wrists."Would you tell me why she slapped you and why the incident is being displayed on the screen right now?" I demanded but she only remained quiet. Goodness!"Olivia, I am your bo

    DAVION."I thought I told you not to get involved Davion." Olivia queried me the minute I stepped out of the company where I had gone to confront the reporter who had hit her earlier."Why don't you ever listen to me?" She groaned feeling frustrated. "I know that you're a billionaire and you're used to doing things on your own but when I say that I don't want you to get involved in something, I truly mean it Davion.""She harassed you.""Because I stepped on her. It's a logical explanation. If I hadn't stepped on her then she wouldn't have hit me." She tried to explain to me but I wouldn't listen."That's what you want to go with? Would you had hit someone else if you were in her shoes?""No I wouldn't—""Because you know it's wrong and you also know that it was a mistake. She had no right to hit you that way Olivia. How long would you let people step on you?" I asked, the veins on my forehead slowly visible. Why couldn't she just understand that I am doing my very best to help her.

    DAVION."I heard that you called off the project with the foreign investors" Karla accused "We've been working on this for the past two months Davion so how could you make such drastic decisions without letting me know or at least giving me the heads up first?""They called off the project Karla. I had nothing to do with it.""Yeah right because you made them do it." She fired back. Obviously angry at what had happened. I know that news travels fast but it's barely been a day that all of this shit happened so how on earth was she able to find out about it."Who told you?" I breathed out heavily."Does it matter who told me or where I heard it from?" She countered, her hands firmly holding her hips. "The point is that it happened and that's it. You made it happen. They cancelled the project because you made your glorified secretary take the stage instead of doing it yourself.""Olivia is not a glorified secretary." I shunned her. "She's a friend and a very good one at that.""That's n

    OLIVIA.Weekdays are probably the busiest days for me and working for a huge multinational company such as this one added to the burden that was already weighing down my shoulders. I wonder how I've been able to cope with all the whisperings, fingers pointings from my colleagues that were so bent on gossiping and back biting me.I knew that they gossiped about me whenever I passed by them and even though they do it in a subtle manner, it still doesn't change the fact that they still judged me.I didn't let it get to me though. They don't know half of what I've been through. They only see the stuff that's being displayed on the internet by the media. They were able to talk shit because deep down, if they were given my shoes, it probably wouldn't fit at all and so I let them. As long as they don't pay my bills of do anything to help me, their words would only be mere words to me and that's it.I arrived at my office the next day and threw my things on the table. I didn't have the liber

    OLIVIA."Here's your coffee sir," I placed the cup on his table and took a step back. "I hope that we can put whatever happened behind us and move forward. Is that okay?""I'm not upset with you Olivia and there's no need to put anything behind us." He said with a straight face. "You did what you wanted by accepting a ride from someone else so I won't hold it against you.""You're just saying this now but we both know that it wouldn't take a while before you snap at me again. You always find a way to get upset with me for the tiniest things so I'm getting used to you now."He chuckled. "You're just saying that. I know that you probably hate me for always getting up in your business at the slightest.""I don't hate you Davion." I whispered truthfully. "The thing is, I admire you a lot but only as my boss and nothing else. Whatever happened between us was a mistake and a thing of the moment. I don't want you holding on to what might be and what might not be.""I respect you a lot Davio

    DAVION."Shit!" I cussed out loudly at the impact of the coffee that had just stained my shirt. How did I go from arguing to fighting over a cup of coffee with this woman? The things she makes me do is just out of this world."I'm so sorry Sir." She apologized while I tried to wipe off the stains with my hands as if it would make any difference if I do. I stood up from my chair and darted my eyes to the transparent glass to see my already ruined dress."I honestly didn't mean to. If you had just listened and stopped arguing with me then none of this would've happened." She cried out. Her voice had taken a higher note."I only asked you to serve me coffee but you just decided to be Ursula instead."She glared at me wide-eyed. "What did you just call me?""See?" I pointed to myself. "We're arguing again and I haven't even fixed this first problem yet.""And that's because you always get on my nerves." She countered. "Every time, you do so say something that always sets me off.

    OLIVIA.I had to say that it felt good to be back home after a these years. I felt refreshed and so alive that I had come back home.

My leg was healing slowly at its pace and everything could not have been better.The internet has been buzzing since the issue of my kidnap and who was behind it came to light. Davion's proposal for me had also gotten a whole lot of feedback. While people still trolled me by calling me names and bringing my divorce into the mix, some people actually supported and rooted for our love. I had told Davion that we needed to take things slow with each other because I wanted everything to calm down and the dust to settle."You're up?" He said walking into my bedroom. I had requested for a room of my own because I didn't want to share a bed with him. At least not yet and he was understanding

    DAVION.Sabrina is shocked at my outburst and I could see the fear and worry in her eyes. She probably didn't expect me to say such in the presence of everyone gathered here but I don't care less. She has been using me as a puppet and it's finally her turn to be one."Davy what are you doing?" She asked, holding me by my arm. Her eyes opened wide as she looked around the crowd of people gathered who were muttering incoherent words at my outburst. Everyone was quite shocked and confused as well."You signed a contract and you promised to do this." She said through gritted teeth. "Don't embarrass and do the right thing Davion otherwise, you won't get to see the woman that you claim to love anymore."I chuckled. "I'm sorry Sabrina but this time, luck is not in your favour and the game is on you. I believed that you have done so much to ruin my life already so it's high time for you to face the damn music and you are going to face it head on."Her eyes widened and almost popped out of th

    SABRINA."There all done" The makeup artist dad had told to make me up said to me. I felt the tears coming out from the corner of my eyes."Don't you want to see how it looks?" she asked again but this time placing the mirror in front of me. I took it from her and stare at my reflection in the mirror. Who would have thought that I will be getting married today and to the love of my life ever since we were little?

    DAVION.DAY OF THE WEDDING.I stood in front of the full length mirror as they adjusted the collar to my tuxedo. I can't believe that all my efforts to find Olivia these past few days has been futile. I have not been able to find anything about her and Sabrina had not slipped or given out a clue even by accident. It's as if she was being extra careful with everything.I even tried to fake date her so that she at least lets me know what was happening around her but her lips had been sealed shut. The more I thought about it the more frustrated I became. There was no escaping this one anymore because I was already tired on the spot and there was nothing I could do to free myself from this bind."Is the suit okay to your liking sir?" The man in charge of dressing up asked and I glared at him angrily."Do I look like I care if your suit is okay or not? I do not even want to be here in the first place neither do I care if I have to walk to that place in rags so please just do what you're

    DAVION.I arrived at Sabrina's mansion with a box of chocolate on one hand and a rose petal on the other. There is only one way that I know on distracting Sabrina. It's giving her my undivided attention. And the only thing that she has ever wanted was to be with me for the rest of my life without anyone interfering and that's exactly what I was going to do. I am going to make her crave me to the point of utter madness where she would be to occupied to even think about Olivia. So that the investigator and Mike will be able to do their job in trying to locate her.I am right at the front door and security welcomed me in. I'm guessing that she had already told them not to stop me at the gate should in case I come to see her."Where is she?" I asked one of the maid who had come to usher me inside the house."Madam is in her bedroom but I will call her out for you." I nodded my head and she quickly rushed off to do as she had said. Few minutes later, Sabrina rushed down the stairs and flu

    OLIVIA.I woke up to the sound of indistinct chattering. What's that smell? I feel like I'm about to throw up. I slowly opened my eyes but blinked severally to adjust the rays of sun passing through them. For how long have I been asleep? Did they drug me again? I opened my eyes tiredly. It took me a minute or two to realize that I was still in the cell looking cage where they had locked me up. My head was throbbing badly. it felt like someone was pulling a saw through it. I tried to move my leg but winced when the wound from the bullet shot through my veins.It has been five days since I was brought here. The people who kidnapped me has refused to tell me anything about my captor or who had sent them. I had spent the last few days shouting at them to at least let me talk to whoever was behind it but they refused. They kept on insisting that I was going to rot in here.I have never had any issue with anyone so I don't see a reason why someone will try to kidnap me when I have done ab

    DAVION.I was still talking to Mike when they all arrived. If I didn't know any better, I'd think that they all came together judging by how they trooped into my mansion one after the other. Mike and Finne must really care about Olivia. When we were friends, he was always buried in work and never tried to make out time for anything but he was here today because I had mentioned Olivia. Does he really have feelings for her? Was she considering to be in a relationship with him before she was kidnapped? Does she like him or better question, are they planning to be together?"You called us all here?" He said out loud. "I know that it's about Olivia but why are we all here?""You're all here because I need your help." I said in a straight-forward manner without mincing words. This was already beyond me and I can't waste any more time thinking about the ifs and buts of anything at the moment. The main priority at the moment was figuring out where Olivia was and bringing her back to safety a
