I didn’t go home after seeing her, I went straight to the bar and started drinking. I couldn’t get her image out of my head. She looked so…so frail. Why did she look like that, was prison that bad for her? “Give me another.” I ordered to the lady that was serving me.
She walked away but instead of coming back with my drink, she came back with the bar tender. “Mr Jones, I think you have had enough. Do you want me to call a taxi for you?” he must think I am child and that I can’t think for myself.
I am not a child, and I can drink as much as I want. “James, give me my drink.” I said with a threatening voice, well, I wanted it to be threatening but I am not sure how threatening I am in my current state. “Mr Jones, you have been drinking since you got here, three hours ago. I don’t think you can handle more.”
I glared at him, I am still the heir of the Jones f

ETHANOliver and I shared a look after Nick passed out. We both knew who he was talking about, we knew who he called his heart. Olivia. But why would he be so affected by her? he was fine when she was in jail the past two years. He didn’t care whether she lived or died. He was busy parading that woman around.Now that she is out, he has a problem. No! Nick should give others a chance too. “Help me with him and don’t ever let him drink this much again. Call me in early the next time he does something like this.”“Yes, Mr Lewis.” We placed him on the backseat of the car and Oliver stayed with him. My phone wrang just as I was about to start the car. I took it out of the pocket and a number I didn’t know flashed on the screen. I frowned answering it. “Ethan Lewis.”“Hi, it’s me.” My heart skipped a beat when I heard her voice. I looked at the backseat and Nick was out co

NICKSandra must have been worried sick when I didn’t come home yesterday. I left going to the police station to sign the release documents since I was forced to drop the charges by my parents. She must have thought that I saw Olivia and wanted her back. Which I did, but it was the way she looked that got me distraught.She was not the Olivia I knew, and I wanted to know what happened in there. I thought going out drinking was going to make me forget the way she was, but it made it worse. The first day I drank and slept in my car then went back at it again until Ethan was called to come pick me up.I was angry with him too, he was my best friend, we grew up together. How can he not know that he got drunk and got Sandra pregnant? Now since the baby was no longer there because of my wife, Sandra didn’t want Ethan to know about that night.Olivia should have been there for her, supported her but instead she got jealous of the time Sandra, and I spent together working and instead of suppor

NICKI woke up feeling like I was hit by a truck. I laid there with my eyes closed just listening to my aching body and regretting drinking so much. But then something moved by my side, and I opened my eyes then turned. Only to find Sandra sleeping next to me.I forgot about my aching body as I jumped out of bed. “What the hell Sandra!” she jumped up and sat on the bed disoriented and looking around. “What, what is the matter?” bloody hell! “What do you mean? You are in my bed!” she rubbed her eyes getting out of bed as if she did nothing wrong.“Oh, that. Sorry, I had a nightmare, and I couldn’t sleep. So, I came here, and I asked if I could sleep with you, and you said yes.” What! How drunk was I last night? Because I didn’t remember any of that. “Sandra, I was drunk last night, you shouldn’t have taken anything I said seriously and besides. I am a married man, and this bed belongs to my wife and I.”She didn’t look at me, she lowered her head then picked up her slippers and wore th

ETHANI was about to drive out to pick up Olivia, so I can take her to her grandmother’s grave. I just sat in the car when James, my driver and bodyguard spoke. “Sir, I just got an alert, someone just accessed Mrs Jones’s prison record.” Nick! What the hell are you looking for?“We knew this might happen one day James, that is why we took so many precautions. I assume they didn’t find anything, yes?” He nodded. I could not afford to let Nick find out about Samuel. He didn’t deserve to know anything about that boy.“Keep it that way. And James, if Nick ever found out about Samuel and everything that happened to Olivia in there. I will forget everything we have been through and all the years you have worked for me. That means, I would put you down like I dog, if that ever happened.”He swallowed hard and started the car. Nick thinks he is the only one who is connected enough to make things happen. I was connected too, and I didn’t become a tech billionaire by chance, I was and so were m

OLIVIAThe anger I felt when I saw my grandmother’s grave was indescribable. The pain though, was more than the anger I felt. The woman did everything for me and made sure I studied and became the woman I am today. Yet, I was not there when she needed me the most, I was not there to give her a proper burial.She was buried like a dog with no headstone or photo. It broke my heart that things got so bad that she became collateral damage. But I was going to make things right, those who wronged me, those caused me this pain, are going to feel the same pain ten folds.“Take me back Ethan, I am just going to tell Nick’s parents that I am going back home.” He nodded and we left the graveyard. Leaving my grandmother with a promise that I was going to do right by her. The drive back was silent, with me thinking of ways to make money. I had no job, and no one was going to hire me with a criminal record.That was what Nick wanted when he got me arrested and he did swear to make me pay, to make m

OLIVIABeing back home felt strange and familiar at the same time. Every room I entered filled me with nostalgia and vivid memories of my grandmother and I. The house was dirty and full of dust. Walls needed paint and floors needed to be scrubbed.I roughly wiped my tears away as I cleaned. I have cried enough at the graveyard; it was time for me to act now not to cry. a knock came through the door, and I went to open. May was standing on the other side of the door with a pretentious smile on her face.The woman must think I was still the same naïve Olivia from before. “Yes?” I said with a raised eyebrow. “Olivia, it’s me, May.” Did she really think I didn’t know who she was? But I went along with her. “Oh, I couldn’t recognise you, it’s been so long.” She pushed me aside and went inside.It annoyed me but I kept my mouth shut. “Goodness! This house needs a good scrubbing! I heard about your arrest, and I want you to know that I didn’t believe a word they said. Media can be cruel but d

NICK“What are you standing there for? Go get me my daughter-in-law back, tell her you are sorry and that you will do better. Go, Nick, go now.” Said my mother hitting me over and over while crying. She loved Olivia and I didn’t like seeing her that way. But what else could I do when she didn’t want me? I was not going to force her to want me.I held her hands to stop her from hitting me, “Mom, she doesn’t want me going after her. you heard what she said. She wants a divorce and nothing I say will change her mind. I am sorry.” She cried even more freeing herself from my hold. It hurt, the way she looked at me was like she was looking at someone she despised.“Get out, get the hell out of my house Nick!” she screamed at me, I looked over at dad, but he just sat there as if nothing was happening. I knew then that I had done more than just disappoint my parents, I hurt them. “I am sorry mom.” She only glared at me and pointed at the door.I gave her a sad look before leaving. Ethan and O

NICKEthan said something that got me thinking. Everything else he said made sense and I regretted it. But I didn’t get why he would say I didn’t take care of my wife’s grandmother. I might have refused to see her because of how ashamed I was of facing her after sending Olivia to jail. But I did send money to her card every month.She should have been taken care of even with Olivia in jail, I never sent Olivia to jail so I could punish her grandmother. “Ethan, you know me man, do you think I didn’t take care of her grandmother? I sent her money every month for the past two years. I might not have gone to see her, but I did make sure that she had money to live a comfortable life.”“You sent her money, then why was she buried in an unmarked grave?”“I don’t know Ethan, the person who buried her might not have known that she had money in the bank.” To be fair, she might not have known herself that she had that kind of money in the bank. Olivia’s grandmother was an old person, and she didn

OLIVIAI have been wondering about what Marcus said the whole week we have been back. We left London the following morning. Nick and Luke went back to Summer Strand, and we came home. But the events of the day stuck with me. spending time with Nick showed me a different side to him. what he would be like being Samuel’s father.It was clear the man loved his son, and it only made me feel guilty about what I did. But then he went further than that and put Marcus straight. The Nick I knew would have taken advantage of that and tried to separate us. But this one didn’t. instead, he told my husband what he was doing wrong. That too showed me that he was a different man.A more matured man. “Penny for your thoughts?” Marcus said wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing my neck. “Just thinking about Nick and how much he seems to have changed.” He nibbled on my earlobe. “Thinking about another man while you are in my arms, what a naughty wife you are.”I laughed hitting him playfully. “I

MARCUSI frowned, since when is Nick the reasonable one? By staying a week with Samuel here, I thought I would make up for the honeymoon that was ruined by my uncle, and she would be at ease with Samuel with us. I didn’t know I was pushing it. I seemed to be making a lot of mistakes, and I didn’t like it.“Why did you force her to make Luke help that woman?” I sighed. I had many reasons for that and none of them were the ones I provided. “I will tell you but don’t go running to my wife about it. I will tell her when the time is right.” Nick nodded but I could tell he was not going to like what I was about to say.“That woman in there and I used to date.” Nick didn’t look as shocked as I thought he would. He just stared at me. so, I continued. “We dated for about a year until I brought her home to meet my uncle. I guess she liked him more than she claimed to love me. but she ended up leaving me for my uncle and six months later they got married.”Still Nick kept his mouth shut. “I was

NICKMy heart swelled seeing Samuel back safe. I was worried especially when that man threatened to do harm to him. I was worried sick, and I felt like I couldn’t breathe. Like if something were to happen to the boy, it would affect me more than it should. As he was not my son. But there was something about him.Something I couldn’t place my finger on, I had a connection to the boy, I couldn’t explain. If he were born at home with me and Olivia, then I would say it was because of that. but he was born in prison, and he had a close relationship with Ethan and not me. But why did I feel the way I felt about him? maybe it was because he was part of Olivia, and I loved her.When she came into the house with him, I followed. I don’t know why but I followed and got into bed with them. Olivia on the one side and I on the other. Samuel in the middle. I thought she was going to chase me away or Marcus would say something. But to my surprise, none of them said a thing.Marcus only peeked at the

OLIVIAMarcus followed me to the kitchen, probably wondering why I was being stubborn about this. But that woman’s husband traumatized my son, taking him from his home and flying him across the world. And for what? To get money from his nephew? Samuel was not Marcus’s son; he should have gone after something that was Marcus’s not mine.“Olivia, I know what he did is unforgivable. But I am already taking everything from him and his family. Lilly will no longer have the same lifestyle she grew up with. Things will change for her big time, school, friends, everything. I can’t take her father away from her too. Believe it or not. My uncle is a good father to his daughter.”I wished I could shut him up with a punch right on the mouth. How could he try and manipulate me like that? actually that was emotional blackmail, and I didn’t like it. “Fine, I will tell Luke to give her a phone. But I am not going to forget this.” I told him then walked out of the kitchen. I felt like he was, yet agai

OLIVIAI didn’t know where that anger came from, but I just exploded when she said those things. I didn’t care about any of that, I just wanted my son. “That’s my daughter, if you thought I was bad, then you haven’t met my daughter. Well, you have just now but she is worse than I could ever be.” Luke said coming in with a tub of ice cream in hand.The man was making it seem like we were a family of mafias there, I threw a glare at him and he lifted his hands up in surrender. “See, I am even scared of her myself and yet she is my daughter. My only child. That boy is her only child as well and trust me. she will gut you and leave you bleeding to death if you don’t give her son back.”Jesus, Luke! Marcus laughed. “Now I see why you want to take everything from us, you are being threatened by this family of gangsters you married into. I thought I knew your character and the type of woman yo

OLIVIAWhen we landed in London and got out of the plane. My heart almost stopped when I saw so many men in black standing there. Marcus and I looked at each other confused. I even thought they were agents of some government organisation or something. That was until we got down and one who seemed to be the leader of the group came forward and greeting me.He paid Marcus no mind as he told me that my father the don told him to come get me. I was shocked because firstly, I didn’t know what the hell the don was and secondly. I thought the mafia was back in Summer Strand. There was no way Luke flew all those men there. Marcus and I followed them in our car.The car was brought by his driver to the airport. On the way he was telling Marcus how much damage was caused by Nick and Luke. “Don’t worry about that Larry, am here now and I am going to sort all this out.” I couldn’t believe they burnt down so many m

NICKThere was silence on the other end of the line, and I held my breath hoping the man was smart enough to make the right decision. While we were still waiting for him to respond, the line went dead. Luke chuckled with an evil smirk on his face. I wondered what he was thinking because I was never going to let him hurt a child.“Well, it seems you don’t mean much to your husband. All he cares about is his wealth. Anyway…” he stood, and I did the same. “Take them to the car, we are taking them with us since the man doesn’t want them. we will keep them.” okay, that was not so bad. He said nothing about hurting them just taking them.It was going to scare him enough to act, I hoped. He and I walked out. “Tell your boss that I have taken his family. Tell him if he wants them back then he knows what he must do.” He told the guards. We got into the car. “Let’s get out of here before Olivia and Marcus arrive.” I agreed fully with that one.Olivia would think I was a monster if she saw me do

NICKWhen Luke said we were going to have fun in London, I was worried. Let’s face it, the man was a mafia kingpin, and his idea of fun was not like a normal man’s idea of fun. When I asked what kind of fun was there to be had. He mentioned guns, arson the works. It got me shaking to my core. We were looking for a child and those things were not exactly child friendly.But then again, kidnapping a child was not child friendly either. The man took my boy and didn’t think about how he would feel being away from his family. He took him for his own selfish reasons and that couldn’t go unpunished. Some people needed to be severely punished in order for them to learn.So, I agreed with Luke’s plan even though it made me sick. But then the fun started, when we got to London and met with his men at the airport. I felt like the most powerful man in the world. Hell, I had money and power but that felt like a different kind of power. Which it was. The way those men worshiped the ground we walked

OLIVIA“Let me get this straight, you are pissed that they have destroyed your property and you wanted them to wait until you could point them in the right direction or the direction you think he might be keeping him, is that what you are saying?” seriously, I wanted to make sure that was what he was saying before I could explode.“If they had waited or at least asked me, I would have told them possible places they could look at without them having to destroy my properties. Is there a need for property distraction in this to begin with? Come man, they are just being spiteful now.” I chuckled not believing what I was hearing.“Not so long ago, you didn’t believe Nick about this, you thought he was lying about the whole thing and now you are angry they didn’t consult you before they started searching for my son? You are unbelievable.” Samuel was not his son, granted but for him to be upset about his
