“I’m seeing someone, so it isn’t appropriate to kiss me anymore.” My eyes widened in disbelief as I heard Olivia say those words.

When she said she had to talk to me about something, I didn’t expect it to be about a new relationship. “You’re seeing someone else?” I asked, trying to figure out if I heard her correctly. “You’re seeing someone else?” I repeated.

I didn’t want to believe she was seeing someone else.

“Yeah, I am.” She responded. But those weren’t the words I wanted to hear. I still didn’t believe it because a part of me felt she was just saying it to push me away.

“Who? Who are you seeing?” I was curious to know who the man was. My heart was already breaking and my frustration was growing.

Olivia heisted and I stared at her in anticipation. “Ethan.” She replied in a low tone and I felt my chest tighten.

I couldn’t hold myself back. “Your ex, Ethan? The coworker?” I asked, my jaw tightening. I knew Ethan liked her but I never thought she would settle fo

    Olivia ~•~“So you still don’t know your plans for tomorrow?” Ethan asked as he walked me out of the office to my car. It was the weekend and I had no idea what I was going to do. I shook my head. “I don’t have anything planned. I’ll just stay at home with the kids.” I replied as I unlocked the car door. Ethan placed a kiss on my forehead. “Let’s do something tomorrow with the kids. Maybe go to a nice restaurant for lunch.” Ethan suggested and I shrugged. “I don’t know about that.” Yes, Ethan was close to the kids, but I didn’t think it was a good idea to go out for lunch with him and the kids since Alexander was still around. Ethan’s brows furrowed. “Why?” He asked, with a puzzled expression registered on his face. “Is it because of Alexander?” I didn’t want to talk about Alexander and I didn’t want him to press further, so I decided to agree to having lunch with him. “We can do lunch tomorrow, the kids will be happy about it.” Ethan’s face lit up with a warm smile, clearly

    Olivia ~•~“Mama, Uncle Ethan is here!” Rowan burst into my room, his voice bubbling with excitement. “And Mama, your dress is beautiful.” He added, staring at me with admiration. I smiled with pride. “Thank you, sweetie,” I replied, feeling grateful for his kind words. “Tell Uncle Ethan I’ll be out soon,” I said, giving Rowan a gentle nudge towards the door. When Rowan left, I did the last part of my makeup and walked over to the floor-length mirror to see my final look. Rowan was right, I looked so good. With a final glance in the mirror, I grabbed my bag and headed for the living room. As I walked outside, all eyes were on me. “You look so stunning!” Ethan confessed, a hint of admiration in his voice. Riley chimed in with a beaming smile. “My mama is so beautiful.” I blushed, taken aback by their kind words. My simple black bodycon dress with a subtle slit had made a bigger impact than I anticipated.“Thank you, guys,” I said in appreciation, meaning every single word. “Shal

    Olivia ~•~“Stay inside the car,” I instructed Ethan before walking towards Alexander and the kids. Lunch was already messy and Alexander's showing up made it worse. “What are you doing here?” I asked, my brows crippled in disbelief. “I specifically asked you to wait until tomorrow but you still showed up anyway.” Alexander’s tone turned defensive. “You lied about who you were going to lunch with.” I did lie, but that wasn’t the point. The point was that he didn’t listen to me. He just did whatever he felt like doing. How did he even know where I was? “Alexander, how did you know our location?” I narrowed my eyes at him, wondering what he would say. Was he watching me? “I had no idea you were here, I only came out to grab lunch,” Alexander responded but I could tell he wasn’t being honest. He probably found my location and figured we were having lunch with Ethan, then he showed up to cause havoc. “If you say so. You could’ve just pretended like you didn’t see us, and walked in

    Olivia ~•~“Maya, can you please come over?” I begged immediately after she answered the call. I had been trying to reach her for over an hour but she wasn’t responding. “Olivia, what’s going on? Have you been crying?” My slightly cracked voice must’ve given Maya a hint. “I’m sorry, I was busy earlier, so I couldn’t pick up the phone.” I sniffed back my tears before speaking again. “I have no idea.” The thought of everything that happened made me want to tear up. I also didn’t want to talk about it over the phone. “Please can you just come?” I asked, a hint of urgency in my voice. “Sure. I’m on my way.” With that, I hung up the call and resumed crying in my pillow. I had tried Ethan’s number several times but he still didn’t respond. He only sent me a text, saying he would send his driver to drop off the kids later in the evening. Was it that bad that he didn’t want to see me anymore? I started to regret my actions. I could’ve told Ethan about it as soon as it happened. I could

    Alexander~•~I knew I wanted Olivia back but I never imagined myself doing something like this. I felt she wasn’t being completely honest about who she was having lunch with, so I decided to pay someone to spy on her. I let my emotions get the best of me when I found out she was having lunch with Ethan and MY kids at an Italian restaurant. The fact that she lied about it made me more upset. I thought about what to do for a while. I was skeptical about showing up unannounced but I decided to pretend I was just going to have lunch and the meeting was a coincidence. A frown formed on my face when I saw the twins inside Ethan’s car. Ethan’s confrontation fueled my rage and I didn’t know when I spilled the information about the kiss between me and Olivia. I wanted to flex on him because I felt he was doing too much. But as I looked at Olivia, I knew I’d gone too far. The jury in her eyes told me she wouldn’t forgive me easily.After they all left the restaurant, I went inside the res

    Olivia ~•~Just as I was about to park in front of his gate, my phone flashed with a notification saying I had a new text. I unlocked my phone to see it was from Sandra. [Stay away from my man, Olivia! Leave him alone or I’ll deal with you.] I rolled my eyes in annoyance as though she was present in the car with me. Was she seriously threatening me? The bitch had a lot of nerve to even contact me. How did she even get my number? I was already having a bad day and her text just made everything worse. “What the fuck?” I sighed inwardly. If only she knew how badly I wanted her self-acclaimed man to leave California. Frustrated, I dialed the number. I needed to warn her about the nonsense she just did. I watched as the phone rang continuously but I was pretty sure she didn’t have the nerves to pick up her phone. “Stupid bitch.” I cursed through gritted teeth before ending the call and stepping out of the car. I walked to the gate and knocked gently. As soon as the security saw me,

    Olivia ~•~Alexander couldn’t stop blowing up my phone. Even when I blocked his number, he constantly called and texted me with a new number. He even called me through Caroline. After she convinced me to just listen to him, I agreed to meet up with him the next day. However, I asked him to come over to my house. I didn’t want to be seen with him in public. Even though Ethan was mad at me, I already assured him that I wasn’t going to speak with Alexander anymore. When I woke up that morning, I called the kid's nanny and asked her if she could watch them for some time. Luckily enough, she agreed even if it was her day off. I didn’t want the kids to be around when Alexander would arrive. I didn’t want them to hear us arguing. I had a lot of anger coursing through me and I didn’t want to lash out in front of them. After preparing for the day, I drove the kids over to their nanny’s house. “I’ll miss you, mama,” Riley said, her voice tinged with sadness.Initially, she didn’t want to

    Olivia ~•~I opened the front door and asked him to leave, but he refused and closed it back. “I’m not going anywhere, Olivia.” He said firmly as he hovered around me. My heart began racing. “Alexander, please leave.” I tried to sound firm but my voice was barely above a whisper. Ethan was right, I couldn’t resist Alexander. I didn’t know how I got there. I was really mad at him earlier in the day but now he was making me weak in my knees. He lifted my chin and looked me into my eyes. “I’ve missed you, Olivia.” He said, his hot breath fanning my face. “You should relax, your heart is beating fast.” He cupped my cheeks and rubbed his over my skin, sending shivers down my spine. I tried to pull away but it was as though my legs were glued to the spot. “Alexander, please,” I whispered again, my voice trembling. “I know I messed up but I can’t lose you again.” He added, his eyes burning with intensity. “I’ll fight for you, Olivia.” He leaned closer, his lips brushing against mine.

    Chapter 269Riley Burke ~•~I wanted everything to be perfect! For the past two weeks, I’ve been looking forward to this day. Mason and I were finally going on our date. I had no idea why I was nervous. It wasn’t like it was the first time I was going out with him. Maybe I was just having PTSD from our last date. But I knew I had nothing to be worried about. My father had assured me that he was okay with me being with Mason. He wanted me to be happy, even if my happiness included being with someone who had hurt us in the past. It wasn’t Mason who hurt us but I just didn’t focus on that part. As long as he was ready to move past the whole situation, I didn’t care to correct him anymore. “The makeup artist is here!” Rowan yelled loud enough for me to hear after knocking on my room door. Yes, I had to ask for a professional makeup artist because I was hellbent on making everything perfect. “I’ll be downstairs soon,” I replied as I wore my hair bonnet to protect my hair while getti

    Chapter 268Mason Craig ~•~Ever since Riley’s father picked her up from the restaurant and interrupted our date, I had this lingering feeling of sadness inside me. But I acted like everything was fine and normal. I didn’t want to put too much pressure on her. I felt hurt because every day I woke up, I was reminded that she wasn’t my girl and could easily give another boy a chance. I didn’t want that to happen but at the same time, I didn’t have any control over it. Every day felt like torture but I was glad that it had finally come to an end. Riley’s father had finally approved of our relationship. A wave of excitement surged through me but I tried my best to remain calm when she told me about it. I would finally be able to be with the girl of my dreams. I had a feeling that he changed his mind because my father agreed to help when Riley had gone missing. I also had my father to thank. He finally fixed the mess he had caused earlier. Everything was finally going smoothly. I h

    Chapter 267Olivia ~•~“Are you sure you don’t mind seeing them together?” I asked Alexander for the umpteenth time when he said he wanted to tell Riley that she could be with Mason. I didn’t want a situation where he would second guess his choice and regret his decision. Or a situation where he wouldn’t be nice to the boy later in the future. It wouldn’t be fair on Riley. Alexander nodded his head as he parked the car in the driveway. “Yes, I’m sure.” He assured me. “I shouldn’t be the one to take away my daughter’s chance at teenage love.” He added, smiling at me. I shrugged. “Okay, if you say so,” I replied as I loosened my seatbelt. “I hope you don’t have any secret animosity towards him that will reveal itself later.” Alexander laughed. “Don’t you trust me?” He asked, raising a brow at me. “I’m not holding anything against the boy. Not even his parents.” “Fine.” We stepped out of the car and made our way into the house. On our way back home, we stopped at the mall to get

    Chapter 266Riley Burke ~•~It was fun having my friends over for the weekend. And it was a total flop trying to pretend like I was surprised when they first arrived. They saw right through my pretense. Even if we hadn’t been friends for so long, they knew me well enough. I barely even thought about what I had gone through while they were around. Having them around was a good distraction. I was sad that they had to leave. But I couldn’t do anything about it as I walked them to the car. During their stay, I realized that it was actually my mother’s idea to invite them over. Now it made sense why she was so welcoming. My mother didn’t usually like it when I had my friends over. I mean, my friends from high school. Our family was always under scrutiny, so she didn’t trust anybody. It was nice to see her giving my new friends a chance. The weekend was over and it was a new school week. I hadn’t completely healed but even when I assured my parents that I would be okay, they claime

    Chapter 265Riley Burke ~•~As soon as my dad handed me a new phone, I found my friend's phone number and called them immediately. It was already noon and on the weekend, so I was confused about why none of them answered their phones. I mean, those girls were literally always with their phones. I really wanted to speak to them, but I guess I had to wait until later to try calling them again. Maybe they were busy with something. I spent most of my time inside my room and I was getting bored. Normally, my mother didn’t like it when l took my food upstairs but this time, she brought the food to my room by herself. I hadn’t gotten any reason to go downstairs. I needed a change of environment, so I decided to freshen up and head downstairs. I was pretty sure Rowan and Jason were playing video games in the living room. After spending about thirty minutes in the bathroom, I dressed up in my comfortable sweatshirt and shorts before making my way downstairs. “Hey,” Jason said as soon a

    Chapter 264Olivia ~•~I wanted to accompany Alexander when he was going to see Maxim, but he refused. I knew that he didn’t want me to see him, but still, he said I was going to see him later. After helping Riley with dinner and giving her medication, I went back to the room to meet Alexander. I hadn’t talked to him since he came back from the station. “Hey, what happened at the station?” I asked him as I walked into the room. He was standing in front of the closet and searching through it. “I have something to tell you,” Alexander muttered under his breath. My interest became piqued. “I’m listening,” I responded as different thoughts ran through my head. Alexander sounded so serious and I couldn’t help but wonder what he wanted to say to me. He took a deep breath and turned around. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you earlier.” He cleared his throat and continued. “You remember when you found out that Maxim was a fraud?” He asked and I nodded, anticipating what he had to say next. “Y

    Chapter 263Riley Burke~•~When we finished at the restaurant, my father asked my mother to drive me back home. He wanted to go to the station to see Maxim and the other men who kept me hostage. My mother wanted to accompany him but he refused, saying she would see him later. As soon as my father left, I followed my mother to the car. I couldn’t wait to go back home and see my brothers. I was so excited to see everyone. Being free felt so good. “Riley, I’m inviting the doctor over, so she can do a checkup and give you the necessary treatments you need.” My mother said as I settled down on the passenger’s seat. I hated anything related to hospitals or medical care, but I couldn’t protest against it. I actually needed medication because I was still in pain. My legs and my head were still hurting and I needed the pain to stop. “Sure,” I responded with a smile and my mother nodded. A few minutes later, we arrived at the house. My heart leaped for joy as the security guards open

    Chapter 262 Rowan Burke ~•~I loved my sister but I had no idea that her absence would affect me so badly. Ever since I realized she was missing, I couldn’t even focus on anything else. My mind was always racing with different thoughts. What if something bad had happened to her and my parents took so long to search for her? Everyone thought Riley had willingly disappeared but that wasn’t the case. My sister was missing. I couldn’t even talk to anyone or go anywhere. I shut everyone out, including my girlfriend, Belle. Until Riley was found, I was certain that I would be restless. While my parents were at the station, I kept on blowing their phones with constant calls. Most of the time, they didn’t respond. A part of me felt bad because I wanted to be kept in the loop, I wanted to know what was going on, or even if they had gotten a lead. But I knew that they were busy and my calls were distracting them from doing their work. When my mother finally answered her phone, she a

    Chapter 261Olivia ~•~Different waves of emotions rushed through me as I saw Riley running in our direction. Relief, joy, and gratitude swirled together, overwhelming me.I was so happy to see her. For a moment, I thought we were at a dead end. I thought she had left the house or the men they caught were probably lying about her whereabouts. She looked so scared but also excited to see us. Before I could even move, Alexander rushed and pulled her in a tight hug. I was still in shock as I watched them reunite. After a few moments, I joined them, turning the hug into a group hug. “Oh my baby, um happy to see you.” I smiled at Riley as we broke the hug. Riley looked like she was struggling to hold back her tears. I could only imagine what she had gone through at the hands of those people. Alexander stepped aside to call the detectives. He wanted them to know that we had seen Riley. While he made the call, I led Riley to the car. As soon as we got into the car, I began asking her
