Divorced To Steal His Heart 37. Nostalgic
…Los Angeles Olivia's POV Is it normal that I cannot even breathe properly anymore after hearing that Theo was looking for me?No. He had searched for me five years ago. Probably not anymore.But the feeling still lingered as if monsters were chasing me, lurking in the hospital walls.My mind was restless, and my heart beat with unease, wondering why he had looked for me.If Theo had searched for me five years ago, chances are things won't go well if we meet again. Right now, the last person I ever want to see is him.I've tried my best to avoid Grandpa Victor's relatives, but what if we accidentally bump into each other?What if Theo had sent out search parties to look for me, and someone accidentally saw me in Los Angeles?They would report to him instantly and my cover would be blown.“Olivia, calm down. You don't need to be in a rush. Don't you care about the old man’s health and that's why you're here? Besides, you have to follow the hospital’s protocol.”As much as Ethan trie

I don't know what instantly brought tears to my eyes. It's probably because of hearing his voice again for the first time after five years.Or maybe because he woke up when I was just about to leave. Turning around, I found the old man struggling to speak through the oxygen mask.I quickly helped him remove it, promptly checking his vitals through the monitor machine for any changes in his system. But his body was working fine which is a relief.I sat in the chair across from him, watching his eyes wet with tears.How did he recognize it was me?I'm wearing a mask after all.“Grandpa!” Emotion flooded my mind and my speech was incoherent. I struggled between laughter and tears as I held onto his hand. “You're awake!”“Am I dreaming, Olivia?” Grandpa Victor said, his voice hoarse and weak. “Did you come personally to check on me?”He didn't know yet that I was the surgeon who performed the operation.I've already planned with the hospital to keep it hidden even after the patient woke

…Geneva, Switzerland Theo's POV Is this a curse or what?I never expected to be stranded in a city as huge as this.The fact that nobody recognized me or my assistant made matters worse.Imagine us going to the airport and getting denied our luggage. Without our passports, nobody would believe I'm the mighty Theo Wellington.How did the passports even get lost in the first place?All thanks to Jake who had foolishly lost his wallet.Without both our phones… without any money in us, we're forced to keep relying on this little kid who seemed to hate me for no reason.Otherwise, why would he scoop a little food on my plate as my dinner?Hadn't he been the same person urging me to eat well last night?“This is too small,” I complained. “Is this all I'll get?”I glanced at Jake's plate which was filled to the brim with food.It's not fair, is it?“You were supposed to call me Boss, but you refused to,” said the little boy. “That's what you get for disobeying your savior.”Seriously, he

What promise?I can't recall promising to take him to L.A.Dave stomped forward and stood in front of us, dropping both hands on his waist “Ms. Maya, are you plotting behind my back?”“Oh, Dave… it's not like that.” The Nanny sounded hopeless. “We're only discussing about the weather.”“Really?” The boy narrowed his eyes. No doubt, he knew the Nanny was lying. I can't stand it anymore.I have to make it clear to him. “I won't take you to L.A.”His expression darkened. Literally, he went so mad that the cold look he threw my way froze me for a second. “How else will you repay my kindness, Theo Wellington?”“I can send you gifts from L.A. that's all.”But Dave wouldn't hear of it.I wonder if he did it intentionally or not, but my precious dinner was soon gone. The food I had barely touched.He knocked over the tray while grabbing his Nanny's hand and the glass of water spilled inside my food. “Fine. If you won't take me to L.A, I'll go by myself,” he declared. Despite my anger at s

Theo's POV I waited for a minute to pass by, wondering if the boy would return immediately.He might have gone outside to check on something. But what, though?At this time of the night even.My mind told me to go and check, my curiosity getting the best of me.Who knows, he might be setting another trap which I might fall into. So I got up, sensing no sign of him returning. I stepped towards the door, making sure that I didn't make any sound. As I pulled the door open carefully, I peeked through it first. There wasn't any sign of him in the long empty hallway, but one of the elevator’s lights was on. Obviously, someone has just entered it. What now?Is he leaving this huge apartment building all by himself?I followed and checked the number of floors he was going to. Seeing it baffled me. Actually, he wasn't leaving the building, but going up. The elevator was going to the fifteenth floor. I wonder who he's meeting there. With each moment, my curiosity got stronger and I foll

“Let's divorce.”His cold and low voice rang out in the empty living room. I froze in the doorway, and my bag dropped on the floor.Inside the dimly lit room, the moonlight streamed through the curtains, reflecting on Theo’s intimidating presence.He sat at the coffee table, his unwavering gaze on me devoid of any warmth. I must have heard him wrong. Maybe I've imagined those words in my excited state.D- Divorce. No way.My heart beat uncomfortably, and my palms were suddenly sweaty as I bent to pick my bag from the floor.Trying so hard to convince myself that he didn't say that, Theo confirmed it further by knocking the divorce papers on the table. “You can ask for anything you want. I won't treat you unfairly.” His cold words numbed me.I glanced up, my initial shock now replaced by a feeling of realization.My eyes fell on the divorce papers, my vision blurred suddenly with tears that clouded my eyes.So this is it. Struggling to control my emotions as they threatened to bu

Since that day, I've been forcing myself to focus on work. I’ve been pushing myself not to think about what Theo said to me that day, trying to avoid everything that’s about to happen.The high concentration during the surgeries not only brings a sense of achievement but also helps me forget a lot of things. I've never been so inspired and motivated. I could go on like this with the hope that my mind will be completely numb eventually to all the horrible feelings I've had these past few days. But after a 4-hour surgery today, my body seems to have reached its limit.Unlike the usual fatigue I'd feel after an intense surgery, this is different.My head spun with dizziness, my forehead sweaty.My weakened calves made me unable to walk properly, and as I was about to lose balance, someone held me. “Dr. Olivia, are you okay?” A colleague helped me up.I don't even recognize who it is as I can't make out my surroundings properly, except for her familiar voice.“You’ve been working too

My lips parted, yet, I could utter no words. Why is he here? Am I seeing wrong?Have I heard him wrong?Ever since I started working in this hospital, Theo has never stepped foot in it.For a moment, my heartbeat woke back to life. I almost believed that he was here for me…until,“Theo, Oh, you're finally here.” Jessica's light voice, weak and desperate, called out from the bed. “What took you so long, Honey?”She attempted to get down from the bed but ended up falling. The crashing sound echoed inside the ward as the IV stand fell in the process.Theo tore his gaze off me, an alarming look flashing in his eyes.In a split second, he was by her side, scooping her off the floor. “That's very dangerous. Be careful.”He gently carried her back onto the bed, his voice unusually tender and soft. “I'm seriously injured, Theo.” Jessica sobbed in his arms, burying her head in his chest. “I should have listened to you and not attend that event. My bones are weak, I can't even walk anymore

Divorced To Steal His Heart 36. Constant Humiliation
Cleaning the car is impossible!I've never done such a menial task before; talk more of doing it in public. Damnit!How did I end up like this? Luckily, Jake is here to do the humiliating job in my stead.I would have rejected it. However, the taxi driver's loud voice was already dragging the attention of the passersby.While I stood in a corner watching, Jake cleaned the taxi driver's car to the point that there wasn't a single daint on it. And before the taxi driver left, he looked at me and advised, “If you keep doing this, Mister, your son will forever live in the disappointment of you. With your good looks, you can easily get a job at any nightclub in this city. Those frivolous women can spend anything on you-”“Scram!” I was about to lose it, having had enough of the taxi driver's insults. However, the guy did himself good by leaving immediately.“I say we should deal with him, Mr. Wellington.” Jake wiped off his sweat, looking exhausted. “Even you never asked me to clean yo

I was still bottling in my anger when a taxi stopped in front of us. “Going somewhere, Gentlemen?”“Do we have to go in a taxi?” I complained.Is this how the kid goes to school every day?“My Nanny isn't here. She would have used my Mommy's car. But I can't let you guys touch it because my Mommy's very concerned about hygiene.”Is this boy directly insulting us, calling us dirty?I frowned, staring at him. The boy met my gaze, daring me with his eyes to talk back.Even adults never dare to stare me straight in the eyes. What kind of devil has possessed this boy who only has a sharp tongue?“Haha! The taxi is here. Shall we?” Jake doused the tension once more, and he quickly held the taxi’s door open.He sat in the passenger seat while I had to sit in the backseat with the boy who wouldn't stop glaring at me.It's as if I'd done something wrong. Something I'm not aware of.“What's your destination?” The taxi driver asked.“Little Elites Academy. The best school in town. The only kind

Theo's POV A few minutes later.I was still mulling over the loss of my phone, recounting the important information I had inside it.From the looks of it, the device is irreparable. The washing machine had crushed it beyond recognition. It'll be impossible even for a professional to put it back into good shape.Now I'll have to buy a new phone and contact the company back in L.A. to download the data in it. Fortunately, I always made sure to back up those important data.When my assistant returned, I could finally sigh in relief.I can't wait to get out of this place and continue looking for that doctor. More importantly, I need his phone to communicate with the nurse and the company.“Hello, Boss. Here are your orders.” He came in with a cheerful smile.My lips twitched in annoyance, seeing him refer to the little boy as Boss.“Hurry. Theo Wellington refused to make his own breakfast. He's been whining all morning about his destroyed phone.” The boy clicked his tongue, staring at m

…Geneva, Switzerland Theo's POV “Theo Wellington!” I woke up to the pounding sound inside my head, followed by small rapid taps on my arm. My muscles were sore as if I'd just run a marathon.I took a moment to open my eyes, adjusting them to the blinding lights flashing on my face.“Wake up, you're late.”Late for what?Opening my eyes, I found the little boy standing in front of me.The disproving scowl on his face made me wonder what I did wrong.No. I should be the angry one.Ever since I've lived, I've never slept on the couch before. The experience was agonizing. I wish never to go through it again. “You slept too much. You didn't wake up for breakfast. Now you'll have to prepare your own food,” the boy added.How come?I couldn't even get proper sleep as I kept tossing on this couch throughout the night.I shouldn't have slept much.Glancing at the wall clock, I realized it was 7:30 AM already.That's strange.Maybe I was jet lagged from the flight yesterday.Breakfast?I
