Chapter 1: The Billionaire's Meet
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56It was a beautiful Saturday morning in the City of New York. Mrs Garcia woke up to find one side of the bed empty. She searched the room for her husband only to find him coming out of the bathroom in a bathrobe and talking on the phone.
"Thank you so much," he said and ended the call"My love, guess what?" he said after greeting his wife with a kiss"You know I don't like guessing games. What happened?" Mrs Garcia asked"We got the invitation to the Billionaire's meet," he announced with lots of excitement"Are you being serious?" Mrs Garcia asked suddenly looking alive"Yes, that was what the call was all about. The ticket to the event would be delivered by noon today," he informed her grabbing a shirt from the closet."Aww my darling husband, since the day we got married this is the best thing you have done for me," she praised making her husband frowned"Really?" he questioned"Yeah, what good thing have you done for me aside from cheating on me with our house help," she retorted getting out of bed"How many times would you bring that up?" he questioned feeling bad"Until you send the results of that cheating out of this house," she said looking at him with a frown."I can't?" he said and returned to the bathroom and she also entered the bathroom after rolling her eyes at his response.Mr Garcia saw her enter and sigh."It was a mistake which I regret every day. Please forgive me and let it go," he pleaded"I can't let it go when the result is here constantly reminding me of what you did eighteen years ago," she said angrily"I would go get the tickets for the evening programme," he said in a sad tone and exited the bathroom.Downstairs, he walked into the dining area to find Olivia setting the table for breakfast."Good morning sir," she greeted and he responded with a 'hmm'"Where is Camila?" he asked"She has not come out of her room yet, sir," Olivia replied"Tell her to come down for breakfast," he instructed and Olivia left his presence to get Camila Garcia"Where is Camila?" Mrs Garcia asked"I have sent Olivia to get her," replied Mr Garcia sitting behind the table.Camila came down a few minutes after and joined them for breakfast."Your brother Jonathan is coming today. It would be great if you go pick him up at the airport," his father said"Go with Olivia so she carries the luggages," Mr Garcia chipped in"Mum, brother and I can handle it. Besides, Olivia would be preparing lunch," Camila said"I said go with Olivia and let her carry the bags," Mrs Garcia repeated"So who is going to prepare lunch?" Camila asked feeling her mother was being unreasonable"Your brother would not arrive until 1 pm. So she should get lunch ready by noon and go with you to the airport to help carry your brother's bag," she said"End of discussion," she added and took a bite of her toasted breadMr Garcia looked at her briefly before turning his gaze away. He knew how much his wife hated Olivia, the child he had with the servant girl who is now no more. She will seize every opportunity to make her work like a donkey and hit her every little chance she gets.
After breakfast, Olivia came to clear the table and Mrs Garcia instructed her on what she was supposed to do before leaving the dining area with her husband and daughter.She left the house a few minutes after to the beauty salon to get ready for the evening programme and Mr Garcia left to pick up the tickets for the programme.Later that day, as instructed by Mrs Garcia, Camila left with Olivia to the airport to pick up Jonathan Garcia. He had been invited over to come help with his father's business and also learn a thing or thing so he could take over when the time comes. He was arriving from Canada where he was working as head of IT for a Hotel.Olivia sat at the front with the driver while Camila sat at the back browsing through her phone.
They arrived at the airport and Jonathan was there waiting. He smiled seeing his little sister walking towards him. Camila was just a month older than Olivia. The two ladies looked the same which Olivia's beauty glowing despite the ragged clothes she was wearing. Camila looked very expensive and had on makeup which brought out her beauty yet her beauty would not surpass that of Olivia who had no makeup o and her hair was just tied up in a pony. "And my sister came to get me. Isn't that wonderful," Jonathan teased hugging her but couldn't take his eyes off Olivia who was just standing there waiting to grab his bags. "You are welcome, sir. Please your bags" Olivia enquired standing on the side"I didn't bring any bag," he replied still staring at her till Camila hit him in the chest breaking his stare. "How are you?" he asked and they all walked out of the airport towards the parked car.Olivia sat at the front and Jonathan and Camila sat at the back chatting. Jonathan suggested they pass by his favourite barbecue restaurants before they go home since their parents are not at home anyway. The car stopped at the Hometown Bar-B-Que Restaurants and they both went inside leaving the driver and Olivia to watch the car. They spend some time there before returning home. Lucky for them, they got home before their parents."Welcome home son," Mr Garcia welcomed and Mrs Garcia greeted him with a kiss on the cheek"Thanks, Dad, and what's up for the evening? You look different," Jonathan said looking at his mother"And your son notice and you didn't," Mrs Garcia said looking at Mr Garcia"We are going for the Billionaire's meet," replied Mrs Garcia"O mine, mummy, that is awesome, can I come?" Camila asked"Aww sweety, we only got two tickets to the events. Plus it is just for business deals," she explained and Camila frowned"I would go visit Isabella then," she said in resignation and went up to her room.Mr Garcia engaged his son in a conversation briefly as he waits for Mrs Garcia to get dressed."I am ready," she announced as she descends the staircase into the living room looking glamorous in her evening gown and expensive sparkling jewels. "You look gorgeous," Jonathan praised and Mr Garcia agreed quickly not wanting to be the last one to notice his wife. They left the house a few minutes after for the programme.Outside, Mr Garcia opened the car door for Mrs Garcia to sit. He joined her in the back seat and the driver who sat behind the wheel put the car in motion driving out of the compound. They made a quick turn onto the main road and drove towards a roundabout."The night is going to be amazing. I can feel it," Mrs Garcia expressed"I am glad you are happy," he said and planted a kiss on her cheek.The car made a third exit at the roundabout and after it was a straight drive to the location of the programme.

Mr and Mrs Garcia arrived at the location and stopped at the entrance of the grand Auditorium. The attendant opened the door for them and they stepped on a red carpet coming out of the car. The cameras of the press present started flashing as they walked towards the auditorium. Mrs Garcia couldn't help but smile ear to ear as the camera lights flashed and the press tried to speak with her which she happily ignored feeling just like a celebrity.This is the kind of life she wants. Being the centre of media attention. Her husband is an average rich man but does not have enough money to give her the kind of power and attention she seeks. When she walks around town, she looks like an ordinary rich person due to the expensive clothes she wears. The auditorium was well-decorated with crystal chandeliers lining up the auditorium roof. There was a huge stage at the front and multiple round tables with flowers nicely arranged in the room. On each table, there was a number which corresponds w

"Why Olivia and not Camila?" he asked and Mr Carter looked at him not sure if now is the time to tell him or if he needed to wait a while. He looked at the two ladies chatting in the garden and moved Mr Garcia further away to a place he considered safe. He got closer and spoke in a very low tone, so only Mr Garcia would hear what he had to say"Ths is the reason why I want Olivia and not Camila," he began and Mr Garcia listened attentively Back in the garden, the two ladies were getting along so well since they have so much in common. "I didn't know you liked those," Mrs Carter commented "It is relaxing you should try it sometime," Mrs Garcia said "I am glad we met, I enjoy your company very much. Now I can boast of two best friends," she said "Oh, that is great. Perfect number, we can have a lady's day out," came Patricia's voice from behind them.

"I am saying, your servant girl is the chosen bride for my son," she repeated "No! No! That can't be," she said still holding the phone to her ears. "Your husband didn't tell you?" she asked "No, he .." she began and recalled her conversation with her husband. She remembered her husband had only told her the Carters had chosen a bride from their family but never mentioned who. It was now clear to her why her husband was against her announcing it at the table. "You bastard," she thought realizing her husband didn't tell her who the bride is, she assumed it was Camila. "Wait, let me call my husband," she said and ended the call and dialled her husband's number and brought the phone to her ears. It rang thrice but he didn't answer. She called Jonathan and he informed her, Mr Garcia had left the company to take care of some business outside. She ended the call and tried calling her husband again but again, there was no answer."Mum, what is going on?" Camila asked seeing her sudden

"Olivia is a servant girl and it makes sense she couldn't handle the news. See, Camila is off the same age as Olivia and if anything, Camila is very intelligent," she said hoping it would convince him to accept Camila "Are you done?" he asked to her surprise and Mrs Garcia didn't know what to say in front of the all-powerful Mr Carter. "As I said, find Olivia," he said making Mrs Carter also frowned"She is the one I want for my son," he added and turned to look at his wife.Mrs Carter understood he wanted them to leave. He got up and she also stood to her feet. He headed for the door and she followed him. The guards quickly opened the door seeing him approached and they followed him out. Mr Garcia was standing there, watching them leave with his wife pacing up and down and raising her hands repeatedly but no words followed her frustrated appearance. Mr Garcia felt worried about what has just happened. He had thought earlier, he could expand his business with his help but it looks

Mrs Garcia woke up by the sound of her phone notification. She picked it up and unlocked the screen seeing she had received a message from Mr Carter. She opened the note and read it her eyes widened and the sleep vanished from her face."No, this can't be happening," she said not sure what to do to change anything now that Olivia was in Carter's apartment. [We need to do something. I know you don't want your son marrying a dumb servant girl. Let's meet and plan something]She typed and sent it to Mrs Carter and got out of bed quickly.

"Perfect, we will end this marriage soon," Mrs Garcia said with a smile as they drove towards Carter's mansion. They continued their chat and laughed alongside as they head back to the mansion.

Mrs Carter invited"Sure," replied Mrs Garcia as she got out of the car and followed Mrs Carter into the house. At the Garcia family, Camila was sharing her grievance with her best friend Isabella. Ethan was the man of her dream. If anything he is every woman's dream. Just when she thought luck was shining on her, their house servant gets Ethan"Why would he choose her over me?"

My Angel Chapter 9: We are Sister's
She went downstairs with the housekeeper and found Camila in the living room "Hello Olivia," she said and Olivia stared at her not sure how to respond Back at the Garcia's, Camila was the one who ignores her greetings and only talks to her when she needs something. It was very surprising for Olivia to hear Camila came to see her. "Maybe she is here for Ethan," she thought descending the stairs like she was counting them"We are on the same level now, so you can address me as a sister," Camila said seeing the shock in Olivia's eyes.Camila could understand Olivia's reaction. She never spoke with her and why should she? She was the daughter of a rich person she was a common servant but now she has a job to do and it will mean being friends with Olivia.Camila took a couple of steps towards the living room area while Olivia stopped at the end of the staircase waiting to know why Camila was there."Can I sit?" she enquired again surprising Olivia"Yes, please," Olivia replied and hurri

Ethan knocked and entered Camila's room and closed the door. The moment he closed the door, Camila came to him and kissed him. Ethan froze and for a moment didn't know what to do. She was heavily pregnant and pushing her felt like a terrible option. Opening the door was also not a good idea, what if Olivia sees them? She might misunderstand the situation. Ethan held Camila's shoulder and held her at arm's length pulling away from her. "Get a hold of yourself. I am neither your boyfriend nor husband. Do you go about kissing every man you are attracted to on the street? Have some dignity and respect for yourself. You make yourself too cheap and that is why you never attracted me and with this attitude, you will not attract any good man out there," Ethan said in one breath to Camila looking very angry. "You think I am cheap?" Camila said almost on the verge of tears. "It was one thing to be cheap and another to act like one. You are not cheap, you just present yourself as one," Ethan

Mr Garcia said."Yes," Olivia replied."How? I saw the image, I.....I....," Mr Garcia said alternating his gaze between the lady before her and Mr Carter. "Mr Carter found me and saved me," Olivia replied and Mr Garcia instantly became emotional.Mr Garcia covered his mouth with his hand and uncontrolled tears began to fall from his eyes. Olivia got emotional too and hugged him."Forgive me, my daughter. I didn't protect you as a father. I abandoned you and watched while people treated you badly. I don't deserve you. I am so sorry," Mr Garcia said while hugging Olivia."It is okay, Dad. I

The next day, a Saturday, the news channels were hit with shocking news of Mr Carter being alive. Mr Garcia was sitting behind his TV when he saw the news of Mr Carter being alive. His eyes widened. "Isabella, come quick," Mr Garcia shouted from the living room."What happened?" Isabella asked as she descended the staircase into the living room."Look," Mr Garcia replied with his eyes fixated on the television set as he pointed to the screen."Mr Carter is alive?" Isabella asked in shock."So who did we bury?" Isabella asked and Mr Garcia shrugged his shoulders.Isabella sat down and Mr Garcia increased the volume to listen to what the reporter was saying."The city of New York woke up to an interesting news about Mr Carter the well-known billionaire whose burial service we held at the church a couple of months ago and later sent to the grave to be buried to be very much alive.

Mrs Carter asked proceeding to the provided seat."Hello, I am a representative of Mr Carter. He asked me to give you this," the lawyer said and Mrs Carter smiled."Aww, my handsome hubby.

I failed to put my feet down as a man and allowed all this to happen," Mr Garcia thought unable to get up from his seat. He watched as they took his wife away to begin her jail sentence. "What does this mean?" Jeremy asked Mr Carter. "I don't have to do anything. The properties will come back to Ethan," Mr Carter said. "Jeremy, you and Ethan have come a long way. I know you had your difference from college but I beg you to be a better person than my son is. Aside from honouring a great woman, he did something great for me, I chose Olivia for Ethan because I believe, that with Olivia, Ethan would be a better person. Just forgive him and let's move on as a family. I appreciate what you did. Standing for what is right despite family relationship," Mr Carter said to Jeremy."It wasn't a difficult decision to take.

"With the way things are going how do think this would end," Jeremy asked Mr Carter. "Well, at least the side of Mr Martin and Mr Green is clear. My wife and Mrs Garcia may go down together. They worked together on this," Mr Carter replied "Will you reveal your identity and testify against your wife like you earlier planned?" Jeremy asked. "It may not be necessary with the way things are progressing but if anything changes, I will," Mr Carter replied.Just a distance away from Jeremy and Mr Carter, Ethan was also engaging Olivia in a conversation."I am so sorry for everything you went through," Ethan apologized.

"Mrs Carter found out that Mrs Garcia had filed the case against her and Mrs Carter decided to teach Mrs Garcia a lesson. The kidnap was on the stage and Mrs Garcia was framed. The documents here prove, that all the payments made from Mrs Garcia's account were false. Exhibit D shows Mrs Garcia's statement from the bank. The two documents were printed days and you can see, in one document, the numbers were manipulated to make Mrs Garcia look guilty," Mr Wilson said.The judge looked at all the documents presented. "Council, what do you have to say in defence of your client?" the judge asked"My lord, thank you. My colleague presented a lot of facts with evidence to prove his point. I must say he presented a convincing story but here are the questions; Mrs Carter and Mrs Garcia had conversations on the phone had always been about the welfare of their children.

My Angel Chapter 141: The Court Processing - Part 3
Ethan thanked the servant and left for his room. In his room, he sat on the sofa in deep thought of everything his father had told him. Ethan realized when it comes to life and living it, he fails to think on his behalf. He rather allows close relatives to think of him. In his anger, he never gives the one who offended him a chance to at least explain. Ethan lay in bed recalling lots of things that had happened in his life and how he handled them. Unable to sleep, he got down from his bed and exited his room. He wanted to go to Olivia but looking at the time he decided not to disturb Olivia. He heads for the balcony. The light on the balcony was off and the city light was the only light providing some visibility to the balcony. He entered the balcony and found Olivia sitting on the chair. He sat next to her and took her hand in his. "Olivia, I am sorry for how I treated you when we were married. I never protected and never listened to you. I caused you more pain than I claimed to lo

"Ethan, I am sorry for all the trouble I caused you during our college days. They were not deliberately done," Jeremy apologised and the two hugged each other. "Ethan, please stay and work with me," Jeremy requests and Ethan obliges.Ethan put aside his resentment towards Jeremy and they did a great job at the company together. All the guards Mr Martin brought on board to monitor everyone were sent away. The guards were unhappy but since they didn't have any contract with the company and the one whom they had a contract with had been arrested, they had no option then to leave. The operations of the company were placed back in the previous working system. Employees who were terminated by Mr Martin were all called back and compensated for the injustice done to them. While Ethan and Jeremy handled restoring the operations of the company, Olivia was tasked with handling the new client's request.It was soon 6 p.m. and Ethan asked Olivia to call it a day while he stayed back with Jeremy t
