Revenge After Divorce CHAPTER 122
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

NICK“Olivia’s wedding is in two weeks.” I ignored Ethan, I knew he only wanted a reaction out of me, but I was not going to give him the satisfaction. “She looks happy, it’s been a while since I last saw her smiling so much. Marcus must be doing something right.” Still, I said nothing. “What do you think Nick?”I stood and went to stand by the window. We were in my office working on a deal. Since I decided to stop bothering Olivia while she was with Marcus, I threw myself into my work and have spent most days and nights in that office.It was starting to feel like before, when Olivia was in jail and all I could do was work. “Nick am talking to you.” he complained, I turned to him. “What do you want me to say Ethan, weren’t you the one who told me to let her be happy with Marcus, so, why do you care what I think about her wedding?”He just looked at me. “It’s okay to be upset about it man, telling you to stop bothering her didn’t mean you must forget her altogether. You have not seen

NICKI sat there and watched my mother leave after dropping such a bomb on me. I didn’t know if I should take what she said seriously or as just rumblings of an old and frustrated woman still grieving the loss of her husband. As a son, I should be listening to my mother and trying to make her life easy.But my mother was like no other, she was no ordinary woman and even the way she spoke one could tell that she wasn’t the housewife everyone knew her to be. Mother had mafia blood running through her veins and even when I want to ignore some of the things she says, it’s hard to because of her background.I might ignore them only to regret it later when she acts on them. “Tell me what is on your mind?” Ethan brought me back from my thoughts. I looked at my friend and he had this look I couldn’t decipher on his face.“I don’t know what to make of the threat my mother just…” I shook my head no longer able to continue with what I was saying. I wished I remained ignorant to everything that s

OLIVIAIt had been two days since Xander left, two days without food or water. My body had grown weaker with each passing hour, and I could feel every ache in my bones, every crack in my spirit. But there was a small sliver of hope amidst the physical torment: the sedative he had used to paralyze me was finally starting to wear off. I could feel a slight tingle in my legs when I pinched them hard, nothing much, but enough to give me the faintest glimmer of relief. Soon, I would be able to move again.That is, if I didn’t collapse from thirst and hunger first.The worst part of being in that hellhole wasn't the paralysis. It was the silence. The uncertainty. I had no way of knowing if it was day or night. Time had ceased to exist in that dark, suffocating tomb, and with each passing moment, I felt like I was slipping further from reality. I was literally buried alive, a prisoner in a catacomb of stone, with no one to help me, no one to hear
Revenge After Divorce CHAPTER 252
NICKLuke’s face changed from shocked to anger very quickly. “Tell him, tell the moron where we are!” he bellowed throwing his hands in the air. “How could this moron do something like this? I am the only one who is supposed to do things like these. You boys are supposed to keep your hands clean!” he paced the room.He was frustrated. “Since when did Marcus become worse than me in things like these, just what the hell is wrong with him?” he said to no one in particular. I didn’t know if he was just frustrated or a little impressed by his son in law. He turned to me with a glare. “What the hell are you waiting for? Do you want him to bomb more cities before you tell him where the hell we are?”I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. Just moments ago, Luke had been telling me to keep everything from Marcus, and now, here I was, being blamed for not telling him where we were fast enough. It felt like I had no place to stand, caught between a rock and a hard place. But it wasn’t the time t
Revenge After Divorce CHAPTER 251
ETHANThe moment Nick hung up the phone, his face shifted, his expression unreadable. It was as if all the colour drained from him in an instant, his skin paling in a way that I had never seen before. I had been around Nick long enough to know that he was no stranger to bad news, but this? This was different. It was as if something beyond our worst fears had just been set in motion.We had already been living through the chaos, Luke, Xander, Olivia’s disappearance, and now, the kids were safe with us. That much, at least, had been a small mercy in the storm. But Nick looked like he had just been hit with the weight of something even worse, something that none of us could prepare for. My mind raced, trying to figure out what could possibly be so bad. And then it hit me. Could it be…? No, it couldn’t be.Before I could make sense of it, I moved closer to Nick, my concern deepening. I needed to make sure that whatever was going through his mind wasn’t as bad as I feared. Leaning in, I wh
Revenge After Divorce CHAPTER 250
NICKI had been holding onto the hope that once Xander showed up, everything would fall into place. That the mess would be cleaned up, and we could put an end to the nightmare that had been plaguing us.Luke and Xander reached some sort of agreement, at least, that’s what I gathered, but the specifics were still hazy in my mind. Luke had told Xander to bring Olivia, or he would destroy his father’s remains.What exactly that meant, I wasn’t sure. It felt like a vague threat, but the tension in the air told me it wasn’t just idle talk. Xander responded with some sort of counter-deal, loaded with things I couldn't follow. Honestly, I was drained. I didn’t care about the details anymore. I just wanted this whole nightmare to be over. But Xander wasn’t backing down, and neither was Luke.Luke had his men tail Xander. And, as expected, Xander went straight to the hotel. He wasn’t trying to outsmart anyone or go off the grid. He was playing by his own set of rules, one that I didn’t fully u
Revenge After Divorce CHAPTER 249
XANDERI was about to take the biggest gamble of my life, and I knew it. Luke was offering me a choice, an impossible one. It was a trap, a setup where only he could win. The terms of his proposition were clear: there would be no chance for me to exact my revenge on him, and there was a very real possibility that I would lose my life in the process. But I wasn’t ready to die, not yet. Not when I had a son waiting for me, hoping I would make it back.I had to think fast. Luke had me cornered, but I couldn’t show him how much fear his words stirred inside me. I had to put on a face, act like I was in control, even if I wasn’t. It wasn’t just about surviving this moment; it was about finding a way out. I wasn’t going to let him win that easily.I stood tall, trying to exude confidence, even though inside I felt like a bundle of nerves. My heart hammered in my chest; my hands clenched into fists at my sides. I could feel the sweat starting to bead on my forehead. If I didn’t hold it toget
Revenge After Divorce CHAPTER 248
XANDERFor the past few days, I had watched them stumble around in their futile attempts to track me down. Every morning, they would set out at dawn, and every night they would return empty-handed, their efforts wasted. It was amusing to me.They had no idea where to look, no real understanding of how to hunt someone like me. It was almost laughable. I had thought they were dangerous, but I quickly realized how wrong I was. There was nothing good about them, nothing that made them worthy of fear.Perhaps they just hadn’t met their match yet. Until now.Now, they had encountered me, and they knew they were nothing compared to what I was capable of. They were amateurs, playing a game they couldn’t win. But Olivia... she was another story. She surprised me. I had expected more resistance from her, some fight, some fire. But instead, she complied. She ate the food I gave her, barely muttering a word of protest. The silence was almost worse than anything. I could tell that the trauma from
Revenge After Divorce CHAPTER 247
NICKThe island was still, too still. No one slept that night. Luke had kept busy with his men, the sound of his voice drifting through the halls, low and intense. I couldn’t make out the words, but I could tell they weren’t discussing anything good.Ethan had joined them; he was more involved than I would have liked. I had asked him to keep an eye on Luke, to make sure things didn’t escalate further. I didn’t trust Luke, not when he was like this, wild, unpredictable, the kind of man you couldn’t reason with once his mind was made up. He was like a caged animal finally set free, and I was terrified of what he might do to the people on this island. They were innocent; they didn’t deserve to be dragged into whatever madness Luke was planning.As for me, I was stuck dealing with the kids. I tried to keep my mind occupied, tried to push away the dread gnawing at me. But before anything, I knew I had to prepare. I organized money, lots of it. It felt like I was bracing for something big.
Revenge After Divorce CHAPTER 246
NICKIt had been three days since Olivia disappeared, the longest, most agonizing three days of our lives. Every day felt like a never-ending loop of despair. We woke up, checked the rooms, scoured the island, hoping to find some trace of her. But no matter how much we searched, it was as if she had vanished into thin air. There was no sign of a struggle, no indication that she had left the room, and absolutely no lead to follow. It was like she was swallowed up by the earth itself.The island wasn’t that large, and it seemed impossible that someone could just disappear like that. But here we were, endlessly combing through every corner, every inch of the place, but we kept coming up empty. It felt like we were chasing ghosts. The stress, the exhaustion, the hunger, none of it was helping our situation. It wasn’t that we didn’t have food. We had plenty of food. But none of us could bring ourselves to eat.The nanny we had hired to take care of the kids, a kind woman, had been cooking
Revenge After Divorce CHAPTER 245
OLIVIAThe tears wouldn't stop. I was completely numb to the pain in my feet, but the sight of Xander meticulously cutting and removing my toenails sent waves of horror and helplessness through me. I had no idea whether toenails grew back after they were surgically removed in such a brutal way, but the thought of it made my stomach churn.“Please…” I sobbed, my voice breaking as I pleaded with him. The tears streamed down my face, unable to stop. I wasn’t sure what was worse, the pain I couldn’t feel or the torment of watching him work so calmly, so coldly. It was as though he had done this a thousand times before. The sight of the tiny toenails being placed in a small, neat box made my breath catch in my throat.“Why are you doing this?” I gasped between sobs, barely able to force the words out. It felt like my whole body was shaking, though the numbness in my feet made it hard to tell if that was real or just my mind frantically trying to escape the horror.Xander didn’t even flinch
