OLIVIAI got out of the car and Marcus got out as well. He gave me a passionate kiss before pulling out. “I miss you already.” I blushed. He was dropping me off at the hotel. We needed to pack our stuff and move into the house I bought for us. We went to fetch the key after leaving the hospital and I wanted us out of the hotel the next day.“I miss you too.” He smiled then kissed the tip of my nose then my forehead. “You are loved, Olivia Williams.” He said before getting back into the car. I watched it drive off before getting inside the hotel with a huge smile on my face. I was happy, for the first time in a long time, I was genuinely happy, and it was all thanks to that man.I rode the elevator up to the penthouse and when I got there. Lupita was at the door with her arms folded in her chest. “Spill!” I frowned stopping in front of her, I raised an eyebrow wondering what she was talking about. “Oh, no girl! I saw you down there. I was standing on the balcony when I saw a scene down
NICK“You jerk assess should stop looking at me like that as if I stole something from you.” I wondered how he wanted us to look at him and he did steal from us. My bottle of scotch in his hand or did he think he brought that with him when he decided to crush our drinking session? Bloody mafia! Thinking everything belonged to them and they could take anything they wanted.I stood up and went to open the cupboard taking out another bottle. “See, you have more alcohol and yet you were giving me the looks for this bottle. Stop being stingy.” Ethan dramatically threw his hands in the air. “Man, are you serious? If you wanted to drink you could have bought your own and drink it wherever you used to drink. Why are you here?”Luke gently placed the bottle on the table then turned to Ethan, giving him an icy looked. Ethan backed up. “Listen man, you don’t get to look at me like that. I am your daughter’s saviour and if anything happens to me. You will never have a relationship with her.” My f
NICKI tightened the cap on the bottle then gripped it by the neck hard, waiting for Luke to make a move so I could show him not to mess with me. not in my house. He came all the way there and for what? To start shit, not on my watch and certainly not in my house and not with my friend too. “Calm down man, what? It’s okay for you to insult us and we can’t do the same?”Ethan didn’t back down but still I could see the fear in his eyes. One wrong move Luke’s men would storm the castle and there would be no escape for us. But hell, I wasn’t going to sit back and let him start shit in my house.The tension in the house was suffocating to a point that I felt myself getting sober. Damn him! I wanted to get drunk so much that I forget my name. then suddenly, Luke burst out laughing. Ethan and I shared a look. the man was crazy as fuck.“I got you good man! Damn, it works every time.” He said in between his laugh going back to seat. He took the bottle and gulped it down. He placed it back on
NICKHis men quickly gathered but he waved them off as he stood. “That was uncalled for.” He said spitting blood on the ground, I hated the man, I hated what he stood for and that he was getting everything that belonged to me. “You deserve that and more. What the hell are you doing here?” he nodded.“Don’t make hitting me a habit, I might just retaliate.” He raised an eyebrow looking at me. I didn’t know if he was trying to warn me or taunt me. “What the fuck are you doing here Marcus?” he shoved his hands back in his pockets.“I want to see Luke. I know he is here. Tell him to come out and see me if you don’t want me going into your house.” What the hell could he want from Luke. Well, he was going to be his father-in-law. I guess they did have something to talk about.I turned to one of his men. “Call your boss.” He nodded going inside. “So, how is life in the Jones family?” the bastard. We just saw him a couple of hours ago and he was asking as If we have not seen each other for yea
OLIVIAMarcus called very early in the morning asking if we were ready to leave. It was five in the morning when he called, and he sounded drunk. I didn’t know why he would be drinking when he still had medication to take. But I didn’t say anything because I wanted to see him for myself. also, it sounded like he was not alone wherever he was.I tried asking but he was already talking to someone else telling them not to touch something. Then the line went dead. I woke up then and packed the last of our stuff. We only had clothes, everything else burned with my previous home.When I finished packing, I ordered breakfast for us. I didn’t know what state the house was going to be in when we got there. There might not be time to get breakfast and there might be things to buy and errands to run. I wanted us to at least have breakfast before going there. Marcus said a car was going to be here around eight.Around seven, I woke everyone up to shower and have breakfast. “God! I am still feelin
OLIVIAIt has been a peaceful couple of months to a point that I even felt uncomfortable. Waiting for the other shoe to drop because knowing me, things like peace never last. I have been having these anxiety attacks every morning wondering what the hell the day had in store for me and when it ends, and nothing happens.I would sigh in relief and thank God I got through yet another day without any issues. “Olivia, come out! How are we supposed to help you pick a dress if you hide in there?” oh, I almost forgot lost in my thoughts that I forgot what we came here to do. These past couple of months I have been planning my wedding.With the help of a wedding planner and Lupita. Marcus didn’t want to wait long and so did i. I did say that I was living for today and I was happy with Marcus now and I didn’t want to wait for things to change again for me to live my life. So today, I was dress fitting but have been in this fitting room for almost fifteen minutes.Thinking about my grandma and m
OLIVIAAnger and humiliation were what I felt at that moment. What did the man take me for? A gold digger? If that were the case, then I would have taken half of everything Nick owned because we didn’t sign anything and he of all people owed me that and more after what he did to me. yet, I didn’t take anything.“if I was after Marcus’s money then I would have started with my ex-husband’s. I will have you know that I work hard for everything I own, I never asked Marcus for anything and never will. I have my own things and money. It might not be as much as he has but it is mine and I worked for it. I didn’t get it from anyone, it was not handed to me.”He laughed. “I didn’t come here for a speech Olivia and if that is how you feel. Then you will have no problem signing that document.” I was angry, very angry. I thought of just standing up and leaving him there but then I thought of that would just prove his point if I didn’t sign.“Give me a pen.”“Olivia, don’t you want to talk to Marc
MARCUSI cursed under my breath feeling angry. When I told Warren about Olivia, I didn’t do it because I looked down on her, I did it so that he heard it from me and not anyone else. The news about that incident were easy to find and I didn’t want it to seem like I was hiding it. Now the man used that to make my fiancé feel bad.He made her and her family feel small. And he made me seem like an asshole to the woman I was planning on spending the rest of my life with. I thought he was better than that, but I was wrong, he was an asshole who made my fiancé sign a prenup behind my back.“I will be right back.” I turned to leave; I couldn’t even look at Olivia in the eye after hearing what he did. No wonder she looked off when she came back, she was angry, and it was my fault. I got into my car and made some calls. Our wedding was in three weeks, and I was still dealing with family members who didn’t know their boundaries.“Where is Warren?” I called his guard; I wasn’t about to hide that
