Break..

last update Last Updated: 2024-12-11 23:50:00

First it was Michael, then Noah, and now Damian? Olivia had gotten scared, and now she could barely focus on the work in front of her. They had all told her to steer clear of her best friend, yet neither of them had given her enough reason to do that, nor had Lisa done anything bad enough for her to just cut ties with her. It was ridiculous, and the worst part of it all was the fact that she had let it get to her and her head.

Now she couldn't sleep or close her eyes without imagining a scene where Lisa betrays her. Letting out a deep sigh, Olivia rose from her desk and proceeded towards the door. She needed a break, a quick one to clear her head from all the nonsense that was swirling round in there. Outside, she took a step towards Michael's office but stopped almost immediately. He hadn't spoken to her since she sent him away, and she doubted he would have the time and patience to tolerate her if she tried to speak on the Lisa matter again.

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   The Interview I

    Olivia woke up with a splitting headache, balls of perspiration trickled down from her forehead as she gently tried to get her breath under control. It had been ten years already, yet she was still haunted by the same nightmare. She had been to therapy countless times, and had bills to help her calm herself, yet the nightmares persisted. It had been a while since she got one, but it wasn't a new experience. Why now? Could it be because of the call she had gotten a few days ago? She said it wouldn't let it bother her, but apparently she hadn't told herself the truth. It had been a prank call, some stupid hoodlum who thought that pretending to be her ex would be funny. Olivia was already used to these types of calls. Noah Grant was a well known figure, and their relationship hadn't been a private affair. It might have been ten years ago, but people still asked her about him in interviews and press conferences. While she would love to avoid speaking about her ex as much as she could, i

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   Interview II

    Olivia froze in place, not sure of what she should do next. She didn't know if she should scream, or simply turn around and disappear from the office completely. However, one thing she knew not to do was act like a wimp she used to. "Liv, it's been a while—" "What are you doing here?" Olivia interjected sharply, her tone blunt and devoid of any sense of formality. Her arrogance only made Noah smile. Reaching into the depths of his pocket, he pulled out a badge and flashed it right at Olivia's face, "Noah Grant, CEO of Rock Enterprise, it's nice to meet you, Olivia Jones." Now Olivia was even more speechless, if that was even possible. She had heard that Rock Enterprise had been bought, but never in her life did she imagine that it was Noah who had bought it. What was he doing this for? To spite her? Hadn't he done enough already? "I want you out of here this instant. Leave while you still have the chance to avoid embarrassment." Olivia held her ground, her voice steady despite t

    The interview had ended a lot faster than expected, and it was probably due to the fact that it wasn't even an interview. Olivia hadn't said much when Noah yielded and sealed the deal. He was here to impress her—to win her over, and not to listen to her beg for a partnership. "A moment, Liv—""Don't call me that! You don't get to call me that anymore!" Olivia snapped, her fingers pointed at Noah in a threatening manner. Noah raised his hand in submission, not wanting to anger her anymore than this. "I'm sorry, could you spare me a minute, Miss Jones? It's important for our partnership going forward, and I'd like to discuss it with you alone." His eyes slowly trailed towards Michael who had appeared right behind Olivia with a protective stance. Olivia knew very well that whatever Noah wanted to discuss had nothing to do with the just concluded interview, nor did it have anything to do with the partnership of the two companies. He probably wanted to discuss something different, one

    Olivia did her best to remain calm, getting worked up wouldn't do her any good, and she definitely didn't want Noah Grant to be the reason for her foul mood that morning. She had better things to worry about, and Noah Grant was the least of them. So why then was she so invested in him? What exactly was his game? What could he be up to? Olivia needed to know. She knew Noah better than anyone, and she knew for certain that he hadn't just come around to play and have fun. He was definitely up to something, and she couldn't help but feel that she was at the epicenter of whatever master scheme he was cooking. She swallowed hard, trying to steer her thoughts away from Noah and focus them on the pile of paper before her. She had a lot of work to do, and thinking about her ex husband was not going to get the work done. Olivia hadn't finished with one of the documents when the door swung open to reveal her best and only friend, Lisa Brown. "You didn't tell me Noah is in town, what's going

    It took Lisa a while but she finally managed to make it to Rock Enterprise. Without wasting any second, she hurried to the receptionist and immediately demanded for Noah's office floor. "Mr Grant is busy at the moment, I am unsure if he is willing to receive visitors." Those were the words the secretary blabbed to Lisa after she had gotten lost twice before finally making it here. She only needed one glance to tell that the lady behind the counter was threatened by her. She was likely infatuated with Noah as well, and clearly didn't want any competition."Noah is an acquaintance of mine, if you don't want to lose your job I'll suggest that you let me see him immediately!" Lisa fixed her gaze on the secretary, her voice cold and authoritative. The woman's initial confidence wavered a little, before she finally yielded."I—I need to call his office first," the secretary stammered, reaching for the phone. Her fingers trembled slightly as she dialed, her eyes darting nervously between Li

    Only one out of the two things he had told Lisa was true, but Noah Grant couldn't care less. It was true, he hadn't signed the divorce papers from ten years, but Lisa wasn't the only person who knew of that. His lawyers did so as well, and the next person to find out would probably be Olivia. It didn't matter where she ran to, or whom she decided to be with, she was still legally his wife. "What? Why?!" Lisa inquired, pulling away from Noah's embrace. "You should have signed those papers years ago, what on earth are you waiting for?" "I got lazy, didn't really look at it until now." Noah replied with an air of nonchalance. It was definitely the truth. Olivia had left him after handing him the papers, and he never really bothered to even look at it after that day. He had tossed it into one of his drawers, and had only gone to pick it up a month ago, when he saw her on TV. "Sign them now!" Lisa thundered, angry and disappointed at the same time. "What do you even need them for?! She'

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   Why Now?

    Olivia could sense that something was wrong the very moment she stopped in front of her apartment building. Something was different, the air seemed tensed, and every person around was staring at her as though she was a stranger. They knew who she was, she doubted anybody in the city was unaware of who she was. Yet, they glared at her with such an odd look on their faces. Her eyes scanned the surrounding, searching for something that could be the reason for the sudden attention. Her eyes fell on a few things she hadn't recognized, the most notable being a brand new sports car that rested by the far end of the building. The people who lived in this apartment weren't poor, so seeing a new sports cars wasn't exactly a big deal. Olivia only came to find out the reason why she had been getting those glares when she walked up the stairs and found Noah Grant standing in front of her door.Her heart had almost jumped out of her body, and she felt like turning around and leaving the moment he

    A week had passed since Olivia encountered Noah in her apartment, and while they hadn't run into each other in a week now, she had managed to find out why exactly he had come back to taunt her after a whole decade.She hadn't really paid attention to his life after she had left him, but after a couple research, she finally fell upon Noah's problems. His half Brother, Damian Grant, was out to destroy his life. Olivia knew about Damian, the illegitimate son of the Grant family. He had been one of the few people who made life bearable for her while she had still been married to Noah. Since he hadn't been raised and spoiled as a child, Damian was a better human being than Noah, and while he had his own faults as well, he was a lot more tolerable than his half brother. From the article she had read online, she had come to know that Damian had contested Noah's ownership of the family's company. Ten years ago, Damian had been single, but had gotten married three years later, and had a daug

    Lisa bit her lips hard, this was the worst possible outcome of what she had intended. Getting rejected wasn't the problem, the problem was the fact that she had just revealed her intentions to Damian and had gotten rejected. Even though she doubted Damian and Olivia were on good terms, it didn't negate the fact that Damian could go and spill her plans to someone else."What's wrong?" Amelia inquired sharply after noticing the panic and fear in Lisa's eyes. "He refused." Lisa answered subtly, her voice a direct contrast to the war she was fighting internally now. What if Damian said a word to Olivia? What if Olivia believed him? Worse, what if Damian told Noah?!She bit her lips even harder until they were at the verge of bleeding. "That bastard! He better not say a word about this to anybody." Lisa through gritted teeth and curled fists. "You don't think he'll say a word to anybody, do you?" Amelia inquired, panic surging through her. Her and Michael might have found love once again

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   A Quick Warning

    Lisa was the last person Damian expected to receive a call from. She knew the lady back when Olivia was married to Noah ten years ago, and he knew that she used to flirt around with his brother despite being Olivia's best friend. They never really interacted with each other, so receiving a call from her had been very surprising."What do you want?" He demanded coldly. As someone who used to be obsessed with Noah back in the days, Damian had already concluded that Lisa was an ally of her brother, probably sent by Noah to distract him or do something that would make him lose."There's no need to get so hostile all of a sudden, Damian. For now, I'm on your side." Lisa replied, but Damian wasn't particularly listening to what she had to say.Damian pinched the bridge of his nose as Lisa’s overly sweet voice grated on his nerves. “Cut with the weird suspense, if you have something to say, get on with it.”Lisa sighed dramatically, and even though Damian couldn't see her face he was more th

    Amelia rushed towards Lisa's apartment with an urgency she had never felt before. After what happened last night, she wanted nothing more than to get rid of Olivia. She needed to preserve what she had as much as she could, and at the moment, Olivia was the only person who could potentially ruin everything for her.Without caring to knock, she barged into the house to meet Lisa tangled up in the arms of a man she couldn't quite recognize. The sudden intrusion had the poor man up on his feet and scrambling to get dressed as quickly as he could. Lisa rolled her eyes tiredly before sliding a couple of notes towards the man who hurriedly ran out of the house. "You're living the life, aren't you?" Amelia teased as she locked the door behind the semi naked stranger. "A girl is gonna do what she gotta do." Lisa replied before throwing a coat over her naked body. She poured herself and Amelia two glasses of wine before returning to the living room. "What brings you here? And why did you ha

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   This Means Nothing...

    The last thing Olivia expected in the early mornings of work that day was to find out that her best friend was secretly associated with Amelia. It could mean nothing, but with the suspicions circling Amelia at the moment, Olivia had very high doubts about this completely meaning nothing. No, she didn't think it meant nothing. Amelia and Lisa didn't know each other as far as she was concerned, which meant that Lisa's contact info was saved on Amelia's phone for a reason.Olivia stared at the phone in front of her, unsure of what to make of it. She didn't want to believe that her own best friend was friends with someone who clearly despised her very existence. "Maybe it's just a little coincidence." She argued even though it was clear she was lying to herself. From the call log, Lisa was clearly one of Amelia's frequently contacted numbers. That couldn’t be a coincidence. "You're joking right? You don't seriously believe that, do you?" Michael asked, hoping that Olivia was genuinely p

    His words had taken Amelia completely by surprise, but the sex had left her completely flabbergasted. She had questions at first, but after the good time she had just had, she had completely lost the strength to question him. But this had been unexpected, and she was still trying to wrap her head around everything. What happened to Michael? Why did he change all of a sudden?She laid on his chest, drawing imaginary figures on his abdomen while her mind rampaged with thoughts and speculations. "You're not playing me, Michael, are you?" Amelia asked softly, her attention still focused on the imaginary figures she was drawing on his body. She wanted to keep quiet, to enjoy this moment as much as she could. But her mind wouldn't just let her rest, there was no way she would be at peace without asking him that question."And what do I have to gain by playing you, Amy?" Michael returned, his tone equally calm. He threw his arms around her back and gently stroked her scattered hair. "I have

    Michael got home to Amelia screaming at someone over the phone. At first, he planned on ignoring her, it was always the best way to avoid more problems. But after a while of listening in on the conversation, he had become intrigued and had decided to pay her some bit of attention."What do you mean it couldn't work out?! Do you know how much I paid for those people to come here? You better be playing a prank on me!" Amelia yelled at whoever she was speaking to on the phone. Michael remained hidden, piecing together every bit of information he could from the little sentences he heard. Could the people she was talking about be the ones he had spotted before? What was their purpose here? And what had Amelia paid them to do? And above all, who was she speaking to on the phone?"Don't give me that! I've done my part like you requested, the rest is up to you! I won't take any more risks because of your incompetence!" Amelia's voice pulled Michael out of his thoughts and back to the convers

    Noah's legs remained steady on the acceleration pedal until he began to fear for his own safety. It was crucial that he got things done with Lisa before Olivia was done resting. She seemed to be suspicious of him already, the last thing he wanted was for her to wake up and discover that he was gone. Sure, he had a plethora of excuses he could give her, but after their last conversation he doubted she would believe any of them even if they were true. The normal twenty five minutes ride to Lisa's took only fifteen minutes, and Noah wasted no time in barging through the door. "Noah—" Lisa hadn't finished when Noah restrained her against the wall, his eyes red with fury, while his whole body trembled with rage. "What did I tell you about staying away from Olivia?" Noah thundered, his hands gradually tightening around Lisa's throat. "You're hurting me Noah! Stop!" Was all Lisa could say as she struggled to free herself from Noah's grip. She kicked, scratched and pushed, and although he
