"I divorced Olivia," he said in a broken voice and dropped the signed document in an envelope on the table."I am so sorry to hear that my baby," she said hugging him but inwardly she rejoiceMrs Carter asked one of the servants to prepare one of the guest rooms for Ethan. He sat down for a while and waited for his mother to finish with the servant."So how did it all happen?" she asked sitting on the sofa adjacent to the one Ethan was sitting on"Mum, let's do this some other time," he replied not ready to talk about details.He divorced Olivia because he felt he was doing so many mistakes with her by his side. It may sound stupid but he needed to put a stop to some of the things happening."Mum, I would like to see Dad," he requested and got up about to head for the bedroom"Ethan," she called out and paused thinking of how to tell Ethan her husband was in the servant's quarters and what explanation will make sense"Your father, he..... Well, he is in the servant's quarters," she sa
My Angel Chapter 30: Time to Get back to Work
Olivia had no choice but to leave. Standing outside the gate she thought of going to Carter's residence hoping Mrs Carter will offer her a job in exchange for a roof over her head. With this in mind, she headed for the bus stop to get a bus to the Carter's Later in the day, Mrs Carter was about to step out when she saw a familiar figure at the gate. She looked back at the house and hurried her steps to the gate. It was Olivia. "What are you doing here?" she asked grabbing her arms and sending her back out the gate "Please, I have nowhere to go and Mrs Garcia would not accept me. Please would I get a job here? I am willing to do anything you will assign to me," she replied with a request and the side of Mrs Carter's lips curled up "With his medical doctor, my husband will get better but if Olivia takes care of him, I am sure his situation may get worse and eventually he will pass on," she thought looking at Olivia with a slight smile on her face "You will do anything?" she aske

"Ethan, with everything going on, it is time you go back to work. You will have something to occupy yourself," she suggested and Ethan gave it a thought "You are right mum," he acknowledged "Your father already wanted you to manage his business. It will be good to take over and manage it in his absence," she added and Ethan nodded. "Have you had dinner already?" she asked "I don't feel like eating. I will be fine," he added "I will have the servant send over some snacks. Not good to go to bed on an empty stomach," she proposed and Ethan accepted. Mrs Carter exited the room and a few minutes later, there was a knock on Ethan's door. The servant entered with a tray which she placed on the table Ethan showed her and she exited the room. Ethan just climbed into bed and tried to sleep without even looking at what was on the tray. Mrs Carter upon exiting Ethan's room went to the servant's quarters. She went to her husband's room and found Olivia reading him a book "Oh, so you ca
My Angel Chapter 32: New CEO
Back at the servant quarters, Olivia noticed Mr Carter's medications have been tampered with but she was not sure how to put them back the way the nurse had arranged it. "Don't worry, I can help you," came Mr Carter's voice"I am sorry for waking you," Olivia apologized"Don't worry. I know the medications I am taking. Don't worry about the arrangement," he said "Thank you, Mr Carter," Olivia acknowledged feeling relief."Olivia, come sit here," Mr Carter invited and Olivia moved from the table and went to sit on the chair next to Mr Carter's bed. "Olivia, I am really sorry for putting you through all this. You being here tells me, things didn't work out between you and my son but before I say anything, tell me what happened," Mr Carter asked "I don't really know. I did my best to follow all the rules Mrs Carter gave me. Ms Garcia was also very helpful but everything went wrong. I don't even know what I did wrong," she narrated with tears in her eyes"It's okay. It is not your fau

"She told me she was going to get some medication from the hospital," his mother replied and Ethan acknowledged getting into the car. The driver drove out of the compound heading for the office to assume his father's role as the New CEO. While Ethan was on his way to work Mrs Carter thought of a way to cover up the nurse's absence and secretly keep Olivia to attend to her husband until he gives up the ghost.While in her thoughts with no solution her phone buzzed. She checked the caller ID and smiled. She answered and brought the phone to her ears. "Hello Mr Green," she greeted recalling their conversation from the private room."Hello Mrs Carter, Hope you are well," he enquired"I couldn't be better. You calling alone is enough to tell me this relationship will work," she replied with a smile "Glad to hear you feel positive about all this. I spoke with my daughter and she will be coming over to see the company's operations. It is up to you to make Ethan and my daughter like each
My Angel Chapter 34: Con Artist's Work
She had her golden hair tied up in a bun exposing her long beautiful neck which she had adorned with a small pearl chain. She was in a blue-black office dress which hugged her body showing her beautiful curves. She had long beautiful legs and she spoke eloquently.Ethan stared at her for a while before accepting her handshake. She had a small beautiful bracelet on her wrist. Mrs Carter looked at the two and smiled seeing how Ethan was staring at her. Ethan accepted the handshake and the lady smiled. Her smile was very seductive in a way."Ms Green. Jacqueline Green," she introduced and Ethan squinted his eyes briefly as the name rang a bell.Before today, he had heard the name before but he could not recall where he had heard the name."Ethan Carter," replied Ethan"Finally, I met the famous Mr Carter," Jacqueline commented but Ethan was struggling with his personal problems and hence was not amused by her statement.He forced a brief smile on his face and returned to his ice-cold au
My Angel Chapter 35: What Games are you Playing
Mrs Carter smiled some more as she watch her son eat slowly. She knew he was going to think about it and will agree to it. Ethan is all about helping society and making good business deals. This may not be one of the things he would look at but it will help people in the society and hence will give it a chance. "Hey son, I know how you feel but trust me, Olivia was a bad choice from the start. With her, your destruction was not far and to top it all she was incapable of having children.," she began and leaned forward to continue"Look, It is good you resumed work, it will reduce the thinking. Again, I think Mr Green's daughter's proposal sounds good. It will be a good distraction to help you heal," she tried to comfort him.Ethan lifted his head slowly to look at his mother. In his eyes, you could read the pain of betrayal. Hearing his mother speak of Olivia, he remembered the day and the reason he decided to let Olivia go. His pain instantly turned into anger. He retrieved his phone
My Angel Chapter 36: Misinterpreted Agreement
"What games are you playing?" she asked as soon as Mrs Carter answered the call. "What do you mean?" Mrs Carter asked with a frown"Don't play innocent with me. You know what I am talking about," she replied"I clearly do not understand," Mrs Carter insisted"Fine, I will see you tomorrow," Mrs Garcia said and ended the call"I hope I am wrong about this," she thought after ending the call while sitting on the bed. There was a knock on the door and Jonathan entered. She quickly started smiling but Jonathan had already noticed the fury she had earlier."Mum, is everything okay?" he asked with concern."Everything is fine. Just something I saw in a magazine that is putting me off. Nothing serious. What do you want?" she replied "I have not seen you since we got back from the office. I just wanted to see you," he replied "Aww, aren't you just sweet," she acknowledged "I see Camila is back. Will she be going back to keep Olivia company again?" he asked "No, my son. Ethan divorced Ol

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
My Angel Chapter 146: Reconciliation Day
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.

Everything works in your favour," Mrs Carter said and left knowing Mr Carter had come to get her out.

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 know he would always come through for me," Mrs Carter said and took the envelope from the man as she sat on the seat opposite the man.She quickly opened it to see the content. A white sheet came out and she frowned seeing the title on the sheet. DIVORCE.

Mr Garcia was immediately shuttered. His wife will be in prison for 15 years. "This is all my fault. 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. Growing up, I heard some stories about my uncle even though I didn't kn

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. "It is in the past now. Let's just move o
My Angel Chapter 142: Lawyers Battle Out In Court
"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
