NICK

My 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

I think Olivia married Marcus too fast. She should have taken more time for them to get reacquainted. She doesn’t like the mafia because of Luke but Marcus is also in the mafia.

    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

    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

    NICKIt’s been a month since the incident with Samuel and I have been trying to get together with the Dr, but she has been playing hard to get. Eventually, I got fed up with her games and I told her she should tell me if she has no intention of getting together with me so I can stop pestering her.The good doctor seeing that I was not about to play her game, came up with the excuse that I should understand that she had a busy schedule as the doctor and so on. I couldn’t care less about that. We were both adults and the least we could do was act like it.If you don’t like someone or something, just say it and not play games wasting people’s time. Right now, I was sitting in an Italian restaurant waiting for her to arrive for our date. According to the research Owen did, the doctor liked Italian food, so he booked this restaurant for us.I must admit, the place was nice, looked and felt expensive. Nice classic music playing on the background which you can’t tell or see where it was comi

    NICK“Get off.” I told her, my voice low but irritation could clearly be heard in it. She continued to kiss and suck on my neck and that just got me mad. Who the hell did she think she was to think she could have my heart. What has she done to think she deserved it? I just met her and already she was being ambitious and think she could get things that don’t belong to her.I removed her hands off me, as gently as I could. “I said, get off me.” my voice dangerously low. She furrowed her eyebrows in confusion, but I didn’t care. I was already removing her from me. “Nick, what is wrong?” she asked but I didn’t answer, I got out of her car, and she did the same. I looked up in the sky and inhaled deeply. “Nick, can you please tell me what I did wrong?” I glanced at her and her pretty face now looked sad and disappointed. Shame, poor thing. “You did nothing wrong, you just told me that you wanted me, all of me with my heart. But am afraid I can’t give any of that as it belongs to someone e

    OLIVIA“This isn’t working!” I pushed the album I was holding away from me. We were at the clinic, or shall I say facility as they called it. looking at pictures of possible surrogate mothers. Last week they extracted my eggs and this week we were looking at surrogates. “What can I do to make the process easier for you?”Asked the lady in charge of the facility. “No need for that, we can just drop everything and go home, my love. Those eggs will still be there and viable whenever you are ready to start again.” I gave him a kiss. I loved how considerate he was. But that was not what frustrated me.I gave him a kiss on the cheek. “That is not it, love. I see all their information and pictures but that is all they are. They don’t give me anything about these people. Their personalities the energy when I am around them. I want to interview them in person to see for myself the kind of people they

    OLIVIAI didn’t know how to feel seeing Sandra like that. I felt hot suddenly and suffocating in that room. As much as I wanted her away from me and my family. Seeing her like that affected me in ways I never thought it would. The woman was my friend, I grew up with her, did many things with her and even shared my secrets with her.She was like a sister I never had. That was until recently, of course. What she did to me hurt and it still haunted me. But I also, can’t say that I was pleased to see her like that. yes, knowing that she was locked up and couldn’t do anything to hurt me was a relief. But I wished I listened to Marcus and never gone to see her.I felt his hand on mine snapping me out of my thoughts. “Do you need anything else?” I wished there was something that could be done for me to unsee what I had already seen in that room. that woman in there was not Sandra but a shell of someone that she used to be. It was not nice seeing a person like that and knowing that you did th

    UNKOWN “Listen, your niece better do everything I say for her to be able to ace the interview or we will never have a chance like this again.” She eagerly nodded in agreement. “She will do exactly what you say, she knows what is at stake here. Tell me, are you sure you can get her to accept my niece?” I knew Olivia better than anyone.If anyone could get someone into her house without anyone suspecting something, then it would be me. “Leave everything to me, we will get it done. Where is she anyway? The interview is in three hours, and we need her to be ready by then.” Oh, Olivia. I wonder what made you think that you could live a happy life.How could you be so brazen to think that you deserve anything other than misery in your life. Who do you think you are to deserve that? “Let me call her.” she stepped out to make the call as I sat there waiting. They said revenge is a dish best served cold and I fully agree with that statement.Sometimes one needs to wait for the right time to g

    OLIVIAThe facility manager called us two days ago to inform us that she had scheduled the interviews for today. We were meeting the first five candidates we had selected. As I was getting ready, I realized I didn’t know where Marcus was, as he wasn’t in the room when I woke up. I finished getting dressed and stepped out of the room, only to bump into my husband, who was carrying a jug of juice.“Perfect timing! I made us breakfast. It’s going to be a long day, and I wanted us to have enough energy to get through it,” he said. I smiled. How did I get so lucky? I kissed him on the cheek and followed him to the dining room, where Samuel was already sitting and eating pancakes.I never understood his obsession with pancakes. He loved them, always starting his day with them. I tried to make his snacks and lunch a little healthier. “Morning, baby,” I kissed the top of his head before sitting down. “Where’s Grandma and Lupita?” I asked.“They’re here. Someone was refusing to wear socks, say

    MARCUS“Boss, we’ve arrived,” Steve said, his voice cutting through the thick fog of sleep that had settled over me. I blinked a few times, disoriented, before slowly coming to. My body ached from the constant movement, the long days of traveling across continents, jumping from one city to another, chasing dead ends and half-truths. I hadn’t gotten a decent night’s sleep in days. Every time I closed my eyes, all I could see was the face of my wife, Olivia, fading from my thoughts like a distant dream.I rubbed my face with both hands, trying to shake off the fatigue. The exhaustion was getting to me, but there was no time for rest. Not now. Not until I had her back. My mind was a blur, constantly circling back to the same thoughts: Where is she? Why won’t anyone tell me? The people who had information were all cowards, and none of them would speak up. It was maddening. The jet had become my only sanctuary, a

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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
