Divorced To Steal His Heart 47. Practice What He Preach
Jessica!What brought her here? I thought I'd told the secretary to tell any visitors that I'm busy.Right now, I'm not in the mood to speak with or see anyone.She strolled forward, swaying her hips, her high heels making the usual disturbing noise.I bet she had another plastic surgery while I was away. “Oh, I'm so happy to see you again, Honey.” She stopped in front of me, leaned down for a brief hug, and then tried to kiss me.I averted my face and her kiss ended up on my cheek. She blocked my vision and all I could see was her wide assets flashing in front of me.Why can't she dress decently for once? “You left without a goodbye. I called you many times but your number was unreachable. It's not fair, Honey. I couldn't even eat while you were away.”As Jessica went on complaining, my gaze traveled to the little guy who was strangely silent.We were in the middle of a conversation when Jessica barged in.He didn't look pleased. He appeared mad in fact.Glancing between me and Je

…Jessica's POVShit!I wish I could strangle that little devil and throw him out of the window.Where did that boy come from?Who were his parents?And why didn't Theo say anything while the little boy blatantly insulted me?It's unlike Theo…I know the man's personality of not mingling with just anyone. I know him well and I'm so confident that even relatives never got close to him.Of course, I know the little arrogant boy wasn't his assistant’s son. I just made it up to see if Theo would tell me who he really was.He didn't mind that the boy insulted me.He didn't stop me when I left in anger.No… It can't be!My head pounded with so many thoughts as I raced my car down the city, my heart burning with an unforgiving fury I feared it would burst.These days, I've been restless.Theo doesn't pay attention to me like before. It's as if he's gradually losing interest in me.My anxiety only increased when he left for Switzerland without telling me. I don't even know what he went to do

But I'm not here because of Theo’s grandfather.I wish the old man would have a relapse or something- I just wished he would fall into a coma or die so we wouldn't have to hear about him again.With the old man gone, my life would become easier.“Speak to me, Dear…” Theo's mother went on. She reached out to hug me, but I pulled away. “If you don't speak, it'll make me worry. Did something happen to my son? I couldn't reach him on the phone.”“Theo is back!” I choked, sobbing bitterly. “He's back with a little boy, Mom! That bitch, Olivia, is also back!”The woman frowned, giving me a puzzled look.She looked as if she didn't believe me.Gasping in shock, she sprang up. “You're joking!” “No, I'm not!” I sobbed harder. “I saw them with my eyes. I saw Olivia visiting Theo’s grandfather, and that boy…”I trailed off, watching the woman's expression shift from shock to worry.“Are you sure, Jessica? Theo isn't cheating on you. He doesn't have a secret child, and that girl Olivia is dead

…Olivia's POV It's too risky to go back.I can't return to Geneva when my son could be here in L.A. The Nanny told me the kidnappers are heading here, and maybe it's true.It's as if Dave has vanished into thin air. News returned from Ethan's father that they found no traces of him. The authorities could do nothing about it either,And the only person I could rely on… My only last hope, Theo’s grandfather, has slipped into a coma. I've never felt this much sadness before. Not even when Theo and I divorced. The Nanny gave me feedback from Switzerland that the authorities found no traces either.Those kidnappers must be skilled in their job. To avoid the authorities, they had skillfully erased their tracks.“Can you at least take some water, Olivia…” Ethan urged me. “Please don't lose hope yet. Look, in just one day, you've already lost weight.”Am I not a bad mother?I should have seen this coming when I've constantly ignored my son. Dave is a smart kid. He wouldn't follow just

I was thrown into speechlessness at first.I didn't know what to say or how to react. Never had I expected to meet Bonnie in such a bizarre way. I thought she was out of the country,I thought I might never get to see her while in Los Angeles. Is it even my best friend? Isn't it someone else who looks exactly like her?“Olivia!!!” The piercing scream echoed in my ears, snapping me out of my trance.Before I knew it, Bonnie crashed into me and hugged me tightly, almost crushing my bones in the process.Urgh! Can't breathe!“B- Bonnie,” I stammered.Bonnie still hugged me tight without any sign of letting go. “Damn, Olivia! Did I make it to heaven? How did that dumbass get to knock me out? If it's really you, then heaven has you in it.”Wait…What's she talking about?I wiggled out of the embrace, confused at her words. Watching Bonnie's tear-streaked face and puffy eyes, I realized she wasn't just being funny.Heaven?How can I go to heaven when I'm still alive? “Olivia.” Ethan joi

“Uhm, what?” Bonnie blinked at me, giving me a look as if I'd just spelled out the weirdest words. In my hastiness, I didn't hesitate to mention my son. She looked so freaked out right now, I wouldn't be surprised if she screamed.“You're kidding!” She gasped. “Olivia, you have a son? When? How?”Ethan started the car.Throughout the car ride, I was bombarded with different kinds of questions by Bonnie.I didn't know which to answer as she didn't give me a chance to speak.When we arrived at the hotel and all got inside the building together, her attention diverted to Ethan. “Why's he following us?” Bonnie had whispered when Ethan followed us inside my suite.But I seriously couldn't address her questions right now when my mind was bugged with so much worry.Suddenly, Bonnie stopped walking, dragging me to a halt as well. She let out a huge gasp that startled both me and Ethan and the weird look she was giving us crept me out the most.“Olivia…” Bonnie stammered, her expression shi

…Theo's POV I just want to be left alone. Knowing very well the reason why my Mom summoned me, I'm pretty sure this meeting isn't going to turn out in my favor.She rarely calls me to the mansion and whenever she does, it's always about one topic.I sighed, rubbing my throbbing forehead, dreading the upcoming headache. “Boss, you can just admit it. I- I won't judge you.”“Hmph! Ridiculous, what would I gain from stealing your phone?”“Haha, it's not like that… I have important information inside it, Boss… Y- You can ask Mr. Wellington. Please give it back, Boss.”I don't want to take part in my assistant's conversation with the little boy. I hate that he was trying to drag me into it. Currently, I'm going through a lot. My grandfather hasn't woken up yet, and my mother is just about to pressure me into something I'm not ready for.“Mr. Wellington, please ask him to give back my phone.” Jake turned to me, pleading with his eyes. He was sitting at the front on the passenger’s sea

The living room was messy. There was a shattered box on the floor and what seemed like make-up materials were scattered everywhere.Surprisingly, Dave found his way here before me and seemed to have gotten himself into another trouble. While my sister scolded him and pulled his ear, he was kicking and struggling to break free.“This makeup set cost millions, how dare you break it? Your servants’ parents can't even afford this, who the hell brought you here?”“Ouch! Let go of me, Crazy lady! Theo Wellington, won't you help me out!?” Dave called out for my help, breaking me from my trance. As Tania pulled his ear, the gesture didn't settle well with me.“Let him go, he's just a kid.” I pulled him from her grasp. Well, I know more than anyone else that he's not just a kid. This little troublemaker is at it again. I'm pretty sure that he'll turn this place upside down if we spend up to an hour here. “W- Wait, you know him?” Tania blinked in astonishment. “H- He just called you by yo

Divorced To Steal His Heart 80. Slipping From Her Grasp
…Jessica's POV.Great!Very good!That little brat is messing with the wrong person.I couldn't get him through that dumb servant who failed in her mission of making him fall off the stairs. I couldn't get him through those cupcakes too, otherwise, he might have already bid this world goodbye forever. For the first time, Theo shouted at me!Because of that annoying brat, he didn't hesitate to chase me away.Why should I believe Theo when he said Dave has his own parents?If he surely did, where are they?Where is that bitch Theo got pregnant five or six years ago? I don't need to wait for the lab results. I hated that boy at first sight and my instincts never lie! He's Theo's son indeed even without the DNA results. Damn! He resembled Theo so much, I was such a fool that I failed to notice it earlier.On our way to the hospital, I clung to the man, burying my head in his chest and crying as hard as I could.Theo was too quiet and impassive. He didn't even pat my back to calm me d
Divorced To Steal His Heart 79. Forgiving Him
Jessica was just desperate for a child, that's all. Many times, she'd brought up the topic of having our own child even though I kept postponing the wedding. Her desperation was born from my mother's constant nagging who had been longing for a grandchild for many years now. “That's enough, Dave… Return that bag. Besides, I haven't found your parents yet.”Which will be my priority from now on. Thomas Sinclair had been apprehended.The doctor had already agreed to go to the Island,Most of my worries had decreased, and the only important task ahead was finding his parents. Otherwise,It's not only Jessica’s craziness I'm wary of. My mother could do something as crazy too.“I'm not staying in this place until Jessica leaves. And promise that she never comes back,” Dave grumbled, pursing his lips. It's not like I like Jessica's company. She must have left already in fact. So it's not something to worry about. Noticing the boy holding his stomach, I frowned a bit. “Hungry?”Dave re
Divorced To Steal His Heart 78. Good News and Bad News
Ridiculous!Is Jessica desperate for us to have a child that she'd even harass this kid? What's wrong with her? Strolling upstairs, I wiped my face, hoping my frustration would go away.I've had enough drama for the day, and all I wanted was a long rest-No, I still have some documents to sign. I have to attend a video meeting later, and then, I'd have to look over the new company's infrastructure my assistant emailed me since last week.I never get rest even during weekends. Damn, if only I could take a long vacation. But the company is unstable now. The higher-ups are constantly butting heads. Just like finding Olivia, a vacation is a far-fetched dream. I paused in the middle of the stairs and brought out my phone which just rang.Seeing the hospital director’s name flashing on the screen, I answered the call and resumed walking.Hopefully, I'll hear good news this time. At least, one load should be lifted off my shoulders already. “Mr. Wellington, I have good news and bad ne

Jessica froze. She stood up straight and dropped the cupcake. Turning around, she plastered on a sweet smile. “Oh, Theo… you came back early. Dave and I wanted to surprise you-”“What the hell were you doing?” I interrupted her, wondering if something was wrong with her head.If I hadn't come in and witnessed it for myself, I wouldn't have believed it. “Uhmm, w-what?” Jessica stammered, putting on a confused look. “What do you mean, Honey?”“Witch! Didn't you try to poison me just now!?” Dave grabbed a tissue and wiped off the smudges of cupcake on his lips. He jumped down from the dining chair and ran to my side. “This wicked witch has been harassing me since morning. What took you so long, Theo?”I wanted to reassure him that I was here and would end Jessica's craziness.First, it was posting the boy's photos on the internet, and now this!But Jessica's stance wavered. She staggered and grabbed the chair's handle, staring at us in disbelief. “What's this, Theo? Dave is just bein

…Theo's POV Finally!I could breathe normally and get those murderous thoughts out of my head.Mike's father, Mr. Kensington, arrived much sooner than I'd expected.Knowing that spending a few more hours there would mean losing my patience and dealing with that blabbermouth, Mike, I'm happy to leave. Honestly, I dislike hearing him constantly call out Olivia's name.I shouldn't be jealous.I didn't care about Olivia even when we were still married.I shouldn't be so provoked by seeing another man obsessed with her!I slammed the steering wheel, honking the car loud as it suddenly got stuck in the traffic.Apart from my mounting frustration, I also felt kind of annoyed this morning.Olivia…I didn't only just dream about her, but also had to hear another man mention her name again and again. Sometimes, I get worried that she might be dead.I get mad sometimes that she left without telling me of her illness,While sometimes, I just feel hopeless.The traffic didn't disperse until th

“Now now, Cora. We wouldn't want you to accompany the old man and constantly get distracted by Theo’s presence, right? Thank you for not hiding your real intentions. You're disqualified.”“But, Uncle Davison-”“Call me Dr. Davison when we're at work!”Moments later, a young lady stormed out of the office, looking frustrated and sad.She almost bumped into me, making my mask slip off momentarily.Thankfully, she didn't recognize me. She appeared to be new and wasn't present while I was still working here five years ago.I couldn't help but shake my head in pity, seeing how all the ladies were gushing over Theo. A rose looks beautiful and inviting on the outside, but it's filled with thorns. I put my face mask back in place and entered Dr. Davison’s office.The middle-aged man was sitting across his desk, ticking off some names on a list. When he saw me, he stood up. “Oh, Dr. Olivia, you're here.”“Yeah,” I replied cautiously. “Why do you wanna see me, Dr. Davison?”“It's for a very

…Olivia's POV Hopefully, this is not a trap. We've already concluded the topic with Dr. Davison and I know he would respect my wish,However,People can be unpredictable, right?What if he's actually summoning me to continue that topic?What if he already has a way he could use to get me to agree?I should stop being paranoid.I have to focus. “You sure you can handle it alone?” Ethan asked as he dropped me off at the hospital.I nodded, forcing a smile.Honestly, I would have loved for him to accompany me. I have a feeling that I won't be able to handle Dr. Davison alone,But Ethan has a family emergency and has to fly to Delawares immediately.I waved him goodbye as he drove off, hoping none of his parents had fallen sick.Then I turned and stared at the huge building standing in front of me.Returning to this place is risky.I might bump into Theo again like last time. But Dr. Davison made it sound so urgent that I couldn't turn him down… Hopefully, I'm not gonna regret this!

I arrived at the City's First Hospital. The same VIP Ward Mike had been admitted into five years ago. A nostalgic feeling hit me, bringing back a lot of memories.These hospital walls echoed with so many memories. Jessica's accident. Mike's accident. Those memories were all tied to one person… Olivia.Will I never escape from constantly thinking about her? When will I stop getting exposed to situations that always lead me to think about her? “Ahhhh! Let go of me! Don't touch me!”The commotion inside the ward brought me back to the present.Mike was surrounded by several nurses who tried to pin him down,But the guy overpowered all of them, pushing anyone that tried to touch him away.“If you don't leave me alone, I'll make sure this hospital goes down!” He yelled. “Just bring me my precious angel.”“Mr. Kensington, please calm down.”“You're bleeding too much.”“We need to clean your wounds before they get infected.”The nurses looked exhausted and some of them had even collap
Divorced To Steal His Heart 72. In Trouble
After Dave left, I reached out for the bottle of whiskey anyway. Discussing the matter with him didn't help. I'd look forward to the boy offering me words of comfort, but then he blatantly expressed his disappointment.Well, who wouldn't be disappointed in me in such a situation?I divorced young. I didn't consider anyone’s feelings. But Grandpa's control over me was suffocating at that time. I needed to stand on my own feet. I needed to make my own choices. A while later as the dark sky outside began clearing up, I headed back to my bedroom upstairs. Finding my phone's screen on, I wondered what notification just came in.I grabbed the phone from the bedside table and stared at the several missed calls from one person. Mr. Kensington. Why did he call many times? Seemed like it had been over an hour now since he started calling me.Strange.Although Mr. Kensington and I are now solid business partners and have built a good relationship over the past few years, we barely commun
