Olivia's POVThe day slowly went by and I was glad I didn't have to see Alex or that Maria girl. I heard him walking in the hallway a couple of times but never bothered to find out what was keeping him busy. I was so engrossed in what I was doing that I didn't know how much time had flown. The phone on my desk rang drawing my attention to it. I picked up the receiver and brought it to my ears. "Hello," I said into the mouthpiece. "Ms Hudson, you are needed at the event hall. The event is about to start," came Mr Wilson's voice."Okay," I replied recalling Alex had mentioned there was going to be an event at the company. I closed the files I was working on and shut down my laptop. I placed it inside my bag and after ensuring I had not left anything behind, I stepped out of the office and locked it up as advised by Mr Wilson. I walked down the hall towards the elevator and pressed the button for the first floor upon entering the elevator. The elevator opened on the first floor and I
Alex kept me company asking me one question after the other while we stood next to the bar and watched employees have fun. Mr Wilson walked up to him and whispered something into his ears."Excuse me," he said to me and left with Mr Wilson.I exhaled and sat on the bar stool. Just then Maria walked up to me. I rolled my eyes at her."I thought you said you were not interested in Alex. So what are you doing being all lovey-dovey with him," Maria sneered."Look, Maria, I am not interested in this kind of conversation. Please find someone who is interested and chat with the person," I said and got down from the bar stool and was about to leave but she grabbed me by my arms preventing me from leaving. "Listen carefully, you slut. I will not have you disrespect me and just so you know, your silly tricks will not work on Alex this time," Maria said."The way I see it, you are the one disrespecting yourself walking up to me and talking about things that are not even part of my priority. If y
Alexanders POV After discovering Olivia had lost my memory I felt I could lure her back into my life. I have already sent word to ensure no documents concerning our divorces land in the hands of any more. Olivia never took her signed document with her. I put my best men on the job to help me find
Olivia's POVAfter I noticed what Maria had done, I found myself getting very weak and a funny feeling surging through me. She pushed me into a cab and I felt the car move while I was lying on the seat at the back. My mind could not register how long I was in the cab, but I felt a hand reach for me. Next, I felt the cold wind blow against me. I knew I was in someone's arms as my feet swung freely in the air. I wrapped my arms around the person and a desire surged through me. After a while, I could not feel the cold again. It rather started getting warm. I remember lying on something soft but that was it, I don't recall what happened next. I slowly opened my eyes and the first thing I saw was a ceiling that looked like a cloth. I rubbed my eyes to look again and realised I was looking at the inside of the tester of a canopy bed. I looked around me and quickly noticed my unfamiliar environment. I try to get up but two things hit, a headache and my present state of nakedness. One hand fl
Olivia's POVAfter my bath, I strode into my room and entered the walk-in closet. I found myself something comfortable to wear. I searched for my phone and checked the time. It was still early. Vera will be at work. I made a note to call her later. I came downstairs and Chantel approached me with a smile."Good morning ma'am. Please what would you like for breakfast?" she asked me handing me a menu.I frowned looking at the big file she was handing out to me. I just had a terrible experience and she wants me to look through some stupid book and choose my breakfast. "Do I look like I have time to go through some stupid menu?" I snapped and I saw the smile vanished from Chantel's face immediately."I am sorry ma'am," She apologized, her voice very down and honest. I instantly regret yelling at her. She was just doing her job. The ones I should be yelling at to my heart contempt were Alex and Maria. She had done me no wrong."I am sorry. Just having a bad day," I calmed myself and apol
"You will do no such thing," he growled. "Then I guess this conversation is over unless you have another reason why you invited me here," I said and he just stared at me as if unsure of what to say. "Leave," he said.I turned and walked away without a word. I headed straight to my office and began my work for the day. I worked on a few files and submitted them to Alex via email to look through and share his feedback. I had earlier prepared and shared with him his itinerary for the day. I checked my time and dialled Alex's extension."Hello, Mr Williams, your afternoon meeting scheduled for 1 p.m., starts in twenty minutes," I said and waited for his acknowledgement."Thank you. Do you have the presentations ready?" he asked."Yes, I have already sent them to you," I replied."Okay. Get ready to present them," he said and I froze for a couple of seconds before acknowledging and ending the call. He wanted me to go to the meeting with him and do the presentation. I thought. No problem
Olivia POVI returned to my office. I leaned against the door after closing it behind me. I exhaled deeply and walked to my desk. I checked the time and it was twenty minutes to the meeting with the clients. I sat down behind my desk and quickly updated my presentation with the details I received from the HR Manager. I rechecked my time, picked up my laptop and exited my office. I hurried my steps towards the elevator. I pressed the button for the elevator and it opened immediately revealing Alexander. I stared at him briefly and stepped into the elevator without saying anything. I figured I pressed the elevator button immediately it closed after Alexander had entered. I pressed the button for the third floor where the meeting would take place."Are you ready?" I heard Alexander ask me standing next to me."Yes," I replied without sparing him a glance. It was dead silence after that till the elevator reached the third floor and I stepped out as soon as it opened. Alexander exited the
"Did you lay your hands on her?" Alexander asked me."Yes, I did. She attacked me and I only defended myself," I replied."I will not tolerate assorting in this company. It is against the rules of the company. Ms Hudson, in my office, now," Alexander ordered and exited the room.He didn't come to pick anything, so I figured our yelling may have called him back to the room. Maria turned to look at me smiling at getting Alexander to summon me to his office on the base of assorting another employee. Without warning, I landed a slap across her face to her surprise."Did you just slap me?" Maria asked shocked."No, your cheeks slapped my palm," I said and pushed her to the side heading for the door leaving her shocked.I walked out of the room and headed for the elevator. After dropping my laptop in my office I went to see Alexander. I knocked and entered. "Ms Hudson, assort is against the company rules. I will not tolerate such behaviours in this company. Maria is a secretary and you are
Alexander's/Damien's POVTwo medical officers entered the ward and rushed to my side. They tried to stop me from getting off the bed."My wife is in trouble. I have to go find her," I said as they tried to hold me down."Sir, you need to relax. You just woke up from a coma hours ago," I heard the do
Hearing her, I know she had not changed. She just wanted me to wake up so she humbled herself. I felt disgusted by her cunning behaviour. "Your son, Alexander died because of Olivia and you feel, she would kill me too?" I was surprised by her statement because I am Alexander, she faked my death and
Alexander's/Damien's POVI was in bed relaxing. It felt like a weekend. I heard a familiar female voice crying for help. I could not ignore the cry so I turned in my sleep and eventually opened my eyes. The first thing I saw confused me because I thought I was lying in my bed, inside my mansion. I s
"She couldn't possibly have slept with multiple men that night. She was with Alexander but she wasn't successful and she came to you and she was successful. Her pregnancy counting from that day, is that much old," I replied. "It's possible she slept with other men and got pregnant by one of them,"
Olivia's POVDespite the changes I have seen in Mrs Williams, I was finding it very hard to believe she had changed for the better due to Damien's condition. Her true son, Alexander, his situation which led to his death did not make her change, how is it that an alien situation is the one making her
Olivia's POVThe day slowly passed and I had tried to call Vera multiple times but she was not answering. This was unlike her to ignore my calls. I was tempted to call Leo but I restrained myself following what I had just found out about him and his behaviour a while ago. I shifted my gaze to Damien
The side of his lips curled up and he smirked. His eyes carried a dangerous look but I was not afraid. It was a big hospital. He can't harm me here even if he wants to and I know he cares too much about Olivia to want to get into her bad books deliberately. This was my surety of safety.I felt somet
Vera's POVAfter Matilda's visit, I realized Leo was not who I thought he was. I recalled what he did to Olivia when he blackmailed me into convincing Olivia to be with him. Back then I had thought Leo loved Olivia too much and he just needed my help to win Olivia. Well, I guess I didn't think throu
Olivia's POVLeo let go of me and stood up from on top of me. His gaze was fixated on Damien who looks weak even though I could see he wished he could get down and face Leo."Leave," I heard Damien say, his voice laced with anger."I will," I heard Leo reply. "But I am taking my wife with me," he ad
