The Party II

last update Last Updated: 2024-11-07 01:26:19

With the crystal clear champagne flute in her hand, Olivia watched silently as Amelia and Michael disappeared into the crowd in the direction of the exit. The way the other woman seemed to wrap herself around Michael's arm had Olivia's head throbbing with envy and irritation. She shifted her eyes around once the two were out of sight. Fortunately no one in the crowd had noticed the little altercation that would have occurred if Olivia had not retreated the moment she did.

She brought up the glass to her ruby red lips, attempting to use the rich taste of the wine to distract herself from the gut wrenching ache that wreaked havoc on her heart each time she thought of the man she loved going home to sleep in the arms of another woman. The worst part about the whole thing was the fact that Olivia could not really blame Amelia for any of this. As far as the other woman was concerned, she had merely come back to get back together with her fiance with whom she never called things off.

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   The Party III

    Lisa sat in her living room fuming about the entire situation with Noah. She had heard that their companies were holding a party tonight, and while she understood that it was none of her concern, she had expected Noah to tell her something at least, and in her fantasies had wished for him to ask her out. There had been no need to take Olivia as his date, she was already invited. "Arrghhh..." Lisa cried out before launching one of the cushion pillows across the room. She was angry, not because she had not been invited, but because she hadn't been able to finish with what he had gone to the party to do. She had arrived for Noah, to threaten him with her presence, and that had worked.When Lisa arrived at the party, she had been stopped by security just as she had expected. Her name hadn't been on the guest list, but that hadn't stopped Lisa one bit. Just like she had planned, she had begun to make a scene, claiming that she was Noah Grant's lover, and threatening to get all the securit

    The ungodly hangover that had remained with Olivia throughout the morning after the party made the woman remember just why exactly she rarely drank. Fortunately for her, Noah had brought her home that night and left her to rest which contributed to her not waking up to a completely messed up day. That had been a few days ago, and since that night Olivia had yet to come in for work. After the company dinner party, Noah had decided to stay at her place for a while. The man had probably done so with the intention of furthering his relationship with her, but Olivia had a much different view of the matter. Seeing Michael that night had forced her to come to terms with the reality of what she was doing. Olivia had realized that if she continued to drag out this plan of hers for revenge, she was actually going to lose Michael to Amelia. The short time she had spent around Michael that night had been the wake-up call she needed. After the party, and with Noah insisting that he stay over for

    Damian did his best to remain calm even though his body kept bubbling with rage as the seconds passed by. He was losing, and he was losing badly. Ever since Noah announced that he had gotten a bride, everything seemed to have turned towards his favor, and Damian has done nothing but lose his support since that day. At first he wanted to keep quiet and hoped that Olivia knew what she was doing, but after yesterday, he could no longer just sit still with folded arms. A few hours before dusk, his manager had called to inform him that Noah now wants to reclaim the portion of the family business that Damian had been in charge of, claiming that if he is to inherit the family fortune, then he wants all of it. It was a ridiculous demand, Empire was an abandoned family company, one that Damian had polished and built from scratch by himself. Sure, it belonged to the Grant family, but nobody seemed to care for it until Damian had brought the company out from the ashes, and now suddenly Noah wa

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   Working Overtime

    The sun had already began it's descent when Olivia decided to leave the office. Thanks to everything that had happened at the party, she had missed work for a couple days and had piled up a mountain of work at the office. Determined to finish everything, she had stayed back to work overtime, but after getting distracted by Damian, her mood had changed and she had called it a day. "I'm off, you can lock the main buildings now." She instructed to the security guard on duty before bading him goodbye with a tired smile. Getting into the car, Olivia took a minute to get her mind cleared. She had been working all day, but she knew this day was far from being over. She still had Noah to deal with, Michael too, and now Damian? All the men in her life seemed to give her a migraine each time she thought about them. However, tonight she wasn't ready to waste time on thoughts. After the work she had done, all she could think about was getting some food to eat, a quick bath, and then it was stra

    Noah stared unblinking at the phone in his hand for several seconds as his mind raced to catch up with what had just happened. Unless his ears had decided to start messing with him, he had actually just been witness to an abduction. And it was not just any random kidnapping at that. Olivia had been grabbed from her car and he had been unable to do a single thing about it. Within moments though, he recovered himself and instantly got to his feet. Thoughts sped across his mind's eye as he considered all the possible explanations for what had just happened. He rushed to pick up his jacket and reached for his phone as well. Dialing the number of one of his most important contacts, Noah raced down the stairs without a second thought and rushed towards his car. The line went through and a deep voice spoke through the receiver. "Noah... Isn't it quite late for a call?""It's business," Noah replied sharply as he climbed into his car. "I need you to track a number, and I need you to do it r

    Michael paused when he reached the door to his office, his hand on the doorknob but his eyes were aimed elsewhere at the other door further down the hallway. After a moment of indecision, he shifted away from his own door and went to the other one. Even though he knew it was going to be locked shut, the way it had been yesterday, he just had to check to be certain. This was the second time he had come in to work, only to find the door to Olivia's office locked. At first he had assumed that she had taken a sick day or something similar, but when he had tried to call her phone the previous day, none of his calls went through. Now today, on his way up to their shared office floor, he had been told by the receptionist that Olivia had never shown up this morning, nor did she call in on the company since then. Michael frowned a little, before he forced himself to move away from the door and go back to his office. He was not going to repeat the same terrible attitude that had driven Olivia

    Curious and anxious at the same time, Michael rushed to the car and immediately drove off. At first he wanted to believe that he was just being paranoid, and that Amelia might actually be right, but he just couldn't be at peace with just that. It had been two days now and he hadn't heard a thing from Olivia. Unlike before, they were actually on good terms. He had texted and called her numerous times, and even if Olivia was mad at him for some reason, he was certain she would have replied to his text at least. His car came to a halt in front of a petite apartment complex, one that he had never visited on his own. This was Lisa's apartment, and he had never paid her a personal visit before. In fact, the only time he ever came here was whenever Olivia forced him to drive her to hang out with Lisa. However, things were different now, and visiting Lisa had become an essential necessity. She was Olivia's best friend, and if anybody knew anything about Olivia, it would definitely be Lisa.

    Michael arrived at Noah's mansion just at the perfect time, a minute later and he might have missed the man. Alighting from his vehicle, he lunged at Noah in the blink of an eyes and instantly pinned him to wall. "Where's Olivia?! What did you do to her?!" Michael inquired with visible rage. His hands tightened around Noah's collar, and every second that passed without him getting an answer seemed to make him even angrier."You should really learn some manners." Noah replied with a condescending tone, his calm tone only fueling Michael’s rage further. He barely flinched despite being pinned to the wall, his gaze meeting Michael’s with an unsettling confidence.“Where is she?” Michael demanded through gritted teeth, shaking Noah slightly, his patience rapidly wearing thin. “Don’t play games with me, Noah. I know she’s missing, and I'm damn sure it has something to do with you. Tell me where she is or else—”“You’ll do what, Michael?” Noah interrupted, his cold eyes boring deep into Mi

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   The Announcement

    Olivia made sure to inform Michael and Damian about Noah's intent to announce her pregnancy to his family. They were set to travel later that day, and she had already gotten her things packed. After learning of the plan, Damian had immediately gotten prepared and set off for home. To make sure that Noah didn't get suspicious of him and Olivia, he knew he still had to pretend to be the villain. It was crucial that they didn't get caught, especially when the final hearing was barely two weeks away. Two hours after his arrival, Noah and Olivia's car pulled into the driveway. Noah was the first to step out, a steady and warm smile spread across his face as he opened the door for Olivia. "Thank you." She whispered before locking arms with Noah. Just like the man beside her, Olivia was forced to put on a bright smile. She hated being here, she hated anything that had ties with the Grant family, and their family home was the epitome of everything she despised. Regardless, she kept her tru

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   A Family

    The past week had been nothing short of hell for Olivia. The mere fact that she had to sleep and wake up beside the man who she knew for certain had killed her friend was already enough to ruin her entire day, now the police didn't seem to be taking Lisa's case seriously anymore. To them this was just a simple robbery gone wrong, and since they had no lead on who the culprit might be, there was little they could do. Olivia fought back the urge she had to scream out her lungs. She just couldn't believe what was happening, life was just unfair, and the evil ones always seemed to be winning. She was tired of it, but she knew that she couldn't let her rage get to her. The last thing she wanted was for her to tip Noah off especially now that she was so close to achieving her plan. Noah on the other hand couldn't care any less about Lisa's death. His wounds had healed considerably, and now that he didn't have to wear bandages anymore, he wanted to take things to the next level with Olivia

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   Get Him Back!

    Noah immediately drove to see his doctor the moment he finished with Lisa. But before he left, he had instructed his men to make sure no evidence of him entering the apartment was found. They had cleaned Lisa's body well, making sure that Noah's DNA would not be found anywhere on her body, as well as cleared any security footage. Afterwards, his men had staged a robbery and had made sure that they were witnesses who would claim that Lisa had indeed died at the hands of a robber. As Noah drove back home, he prepared himself for the torrent of questions that he would definitely receive from Olivia. He would have to explain the bandages wrapped around his head, and he would also have to explain where he had been all this while. He knew for sure that she would have already received news of Lisa's death by now. And judging by the time, Noah already expected her to be home by now. After more than half an hour of driving, Noah finally arrived home. As he had expected, Olivia was home, her

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   She's Dead

    Olivia felt her blood run cold the moment the police officer announced to her that Lisa was dead. At first she thought it was all some sort of prank, but the sound of ambulances in the background was enough to convince her that this might not be a joke. "W..what are you talking about? What are you saying?!" Olivia stammered as she forced her body to stop trembling. How on earth did this happen? Why? How?"I understand that you're in shock, but I'll need you to calm down ma'am. Right now we don't have the full details of the story, and we'll need your help if we're going to get to the bottom of it." The officer on the other side calmed Olivia. They had gone through Lisa's phone, and from the data collected from her device, they had enough material that suggested Olivia was her closest friend. So far it looked like a murder, and some witnesses had reported seeing a hooded man enter her apartment minutes before they heard a gunshot. The shattered glass and scattered living room suggest

    Noah had thought that after his warning, Lisa would finally learn her place and stop interfering in his plans. But after receiving a call from his henchmen, informing him that Damian had recently gone to visit Lisa, Noah had finally come to the conclusion that he could no longer let Lisa stay around any longer. He had warned her more than enough times, but she had simply refused to listen to his words. Slipping a pistol and a silencer into his pocket, Noah made his way towards his car. He needed to pay Lisa a visit, and this visit was necessary in order to shut her up for good. Lisa had made it clear that she wouldn't stop being a burden to his plans, and Noah was simply sick and tired of tolerating her acts of insolence and defiance. Noah's mind wandered as he drove towards Lisa's apartment. He wondered how Olivia was going to react to the news of hearing that Lisa was dead, and if it was going to affect her pregnancy in any way. The last thing he wanted was to jeopardize her heal

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   Desperate

    Damian made it to Olivia's office after thirty minutes of being on the road. Lisa's words had given him a little bit of hope, now all that was left was for him to confirm things with Olivia. If they happened to be true, he would do all that he could to help her out. Lisa was right, he was the one gaining the most from all of this, and because of that he needed to show efforts in taking Noah down. Getting down from his car, he rushed into the main building, hoping and praying that Olivia had come to work today. He had barely finished with the receptionist when he was approached by a figure he wasn't quite familiar with. However, Michael knew exactly who Damian was, and he had recognized him the moment he laid eyes on him. "Is there something you want, Damian Grant?" Michael asked with raised brows and mild hostility. He didn't want to judge Damian because of Noah, but it had become impossible to think about the Grants without immediately assuming that they were up to something bad.

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   Desperate

    Damian could feel his anxiety growing as the days passed. His final court hearing with Noah was approaching soon, and so far he was on the losing end of the game. There was barely a month left before they got down to the final stages of the succession crisis. He had run out of ideas on what to do, and it seemed like Olivia wasn't making much progress with her plans.He got down from his bed, confused and feeling miserable. There wasn't much he could do anymore, and he hated that more than anything. If he lost, Noah was going to take everything and leave him with nothing, and he simply just couldn't sit still and let that happen. He needed to speak with Olivia, to know exactly where she was headed to with this plan of hers. Getting down from the bed, Damian entered the bathroom and immediately freshened up. He had been in town ever since Noah and Olivia got attacked, but hadn't made his presence known to anybody. He had been watching Noah and Olivia from the shadows, and the things he

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   Very Soon...

    Noah was the last person Olivia had expected to come to her office, and quite frankly she didn't know how she didn't see it coming. She should have expected it, Noah was never going to let her go without trying to know everything that she was up to. She was grateful for her secretary, if it weren't for her, Noah would have caught her in Michael's office, being intimate with the man."There was no need for you to come here, Noah." Olivia argued as she lifted her head up from the system that she was barely using. "I was worried, pregnant women shouldn't be in the office, Liv. You should be at home, resting—""I am fine, Noah! How many times do I need to tell you that?!" Olivia interjected sharply, annoyed and angry that Noah wouldn't just let her live her life in peace. What was up with him anyway?! "You should go back home, you're distracting me from work, and there isn't really anything for you to do here." Noah sat still, contemplating on whether or not he should confront Olivia ab

  • My Billionaire Ex Husband Wants Me Back   What Is She Up To?

    Although Noah had a feeling that Olivia was not going to work, he hadn't expected that she would be heading for Lisa's home. He had paid some of his henchmen to keep an eye on Lisa ever since the day she told him that she was pregnant. And today, they had called to tell him that Olivia just pulled up to Lisa's apartment, and had spent more than half an hour inside with Lisa as well. He had immediately prepared himself and had driven straight to Lisa's. Olivia was already gone by the time he arrived, but that didn't stop him from entering the complex, and heading straight for Lisa's home. He wanted to know what they had discussed, and he needed to know why Olivia had come here. Without knocking, he stormed in and entered the room to find Lisa on the couch, holding a half glass of champagne and watching television."You son of a bitch—" Lisa's words were drowned out by the shock of seeing Noah in her living room. Her surprise soon turned to rage, and she hurled the glass in her hand
