NICK

I went straight to my parent’s house after the gala. I was pissed by what Olivia did there, allowing Brandon to dance and flirt with her. She was all smiles and laughing as they danced like an old couple. Brandon is going to stay the hell away from my wife if he knew what was good for him.

Going to my parent’s house was the only logical thing I could do in that situation. I was too angry to go home, about one, being that I didn’t want to go home and face Sandra. I was angry with her for what she did at the gala, and I was afraid if I went home. I was going to say things I was going to regret. Second, I was going to find out what they learned from Olivia after talking to her.

But by the look of things and how she was behaving towards me. I had a feeling that it didn’t go well. Given parked in front of the house. “I am going to sleep here, no need to wait for me. you can leave if you want to.” I told him then went into the house.

My parents were still awake, the light was still on

    NICKI couldn’t believe father was advising me to let my wife go, he was the one who taught me that you don’t give up on family, that you fight for your family and that you always try to make things right with the people you love. Yet, today, that same man was telling me to give up on my wife. The mother of my son and just let her go.What a hypocrite he was being. Am sure he and mother had their issues as well. Did he give up? No. they were still together, raised me together as a family, why did he ask me to give up on mine? I did my wife wrong that I know but what was I supposed to do when all the evidence was against her?I just wanted her to acknowledge her wrongdoing and learn from it. Sandra was her friend, and she needed her to do right by her. It would have taken time for her to get over what she did, but she would have forgiven her eventually. I didn’t care about the money she stole; she was entitled to it as my wife.I wish she would have asked for it instead of stealing it b

    OLIVIAWith the business I got from Ethan plus the others that were coming through, which I didn’t know where they came from or how they came to know about us. I had to hire more people to help out. I hired seven more drivers, another administrator and fleet coordinator.It was becoming too much for me to do everything on my own with the logistics side of the business and the consulting side. I would work at night as well just to make sure that I deliver to our clients. My business was growing fast, and I didn’t know how that was happening.It was clear that it was not just Ethan who was helping me but someone else as well. I thought of Nick but then dismissed that thought, Nick would never help me. He hated me. “Jane, please come to my office.” I called her. Jane was helping me in the consulting side of the business, but she was not putting much effort into her work and missing deadlines.A few minutes later she came in chewing gum. Gosh, I hated a woman who chews gum in the workplace

    OLIVIAI was busy in my office doing two people’s jobs since I fired Jane. I have asked Lauren to advertise the position for me, but the process was going to take at least a month before I could get someone in to fill the position. Meanwhile I would have to suck it up and do the work. It was my business after all, and it was growing fast.I had two big clients and over fifteen smaller ones. Then the individual tax and finance consulting for the small businesspeople in town. It seemed like I was going to have to hire someone else to help with the work if things continued the way they did.My door opened and closed. “Lauren, it’s good you came in. I wanted to ask if the truck company got back to you regarding those two trucks we want to buy and please ask HR how far they are with hiring the two drivers who are going to be driving those trucks. We need to keep this moving so we can take the load off our current drivers.”There was no response until I lifted my head, and I was shocked to

Does anyone want to tell me when we became the losing team?” I was pissed to no end, a year ago a company popped out of nowhere and started making waves. I didn’t notice it until we were in the same room bidding for the same contract.I didn’t know where they came from or who the owners are, but they are giving us a run for our money. They won that contract and they have been winning them since. It’s been six months now and we have lost five bloody contracts to them, and I wanted to know why. I needed to know how as well.Granted, they were good, but they had no background or reputation to speak of. I didn’t understand how investors and others put their trust in them. Because of that, we were losing, and they were winning. I called a deep briefing to try and find out what the hell is going on with my team.“Lina, what have you found about them?” I have asked her to do some digging on those people

    NICKI have been going out of my mind since Ethan told me about Olivia being the owner of that business. I still couldn’t understand how she got investors to work with her after the scandal of two years ago. She must have a big backer because there was no way in hell, she managed to do that all on her own and within a year.“Now I see why the business has been suffering, you sit behind that desk and daydream all day instead of working.” I snapped out of it and my father was standing by the door. He didn’t look pleased at all. “Father, what are you doing here?” he walked in then came and sat in front of me.“I am here to help you save the business since you can’t seem to do it on your own.” I sighed, he didn’t understand, if it were anyone else, then I would have taken them out already, but this was my wife, the mother of my son, I couldn’t hurt her like that a second time.“I understand you have been trying to find out who owns that MW&O Corporation, and I am here to offer a solution.”

    OLIVIA“When did you decide that our partnership was over?” Mr Ryan asked, I knew from his facial expression the day we started the partnership a year ago that he was willing to do anything to bring the Jones’s down. That was when I started looking for another investor.“I decided the moment you started using dirty tricks to get their contracts and approaching their clients behind their backs to sign with you. I told you from the start that if this was going to work then there should not be any dirty tricks. But you went back on your word and hired one of his people to work for you. I can’t work with someone like that.”He chuckled. “I thought you of all people would understand why I did what I did. James had a hand in my wife’s death and Nick sent you to prison for something you didn’t do. I thought you would want revenge as much as I do.”I leaned forward. “Mr Ryan, I want revenge as much as you do but I want to get it the right way. I don’t want to be involved in corporate espionag

    OLIVIAI have not been at ease since the visit we got from father. His threat was real, and it got me scared that he was going to do something awful either to Marcas or the business. When I told him about my concerns, Marcas told me not to worry about it and that he was going to take care of it. So, I left everything in his capable hands.Right now, I was with Ethan, and we were picking up Samuel from Tyger Valley. I was worried sick about his reaction when he saw me. I wasn’t sure if he was going to remember me or not. I only saw him once after I gave birth to him and now, he was two years old and talking.“Don’t worry, he will remember you. No child could ever forget his mother.” Ethan tried to assure me, but it wasn’t working. “What does he like? I don’t want to get there empty handed.” We were at the airport gift shop. “You are enough gift for him, but if you want to get him something then get him a toy car, the transformers. He is obsessed with those.”I nodded; I was not a good

    NICK“Nick look, isn’t that Olivia?” I turned to look; I didn’t need to be told twice that was my wife I was seeing. Even with her back on me, I could tell it was her and her laughter confirmed it. I would recognize that laugh anywhere, the kind that made my world stand still and everything in it disappear then it would just be she and I. with her laughing like that.“Oh, my God! She is with Marcus Walker, her high school boyfriend and your friend. Dear Lord, we will never find good men and get married because Olivia has all of them wrapped around her little finger.” My blood boiled when Sandra made that comment. I wasn’t going to go there but thinking about it, it made me angry.I walked there and with each step I took. I could feel my anger rising. I stood behind her with that Marcus guy facing me and Ethen facing the other way doing God knows what. “So, is this what you do?” she said nothing, didn’t even turn to look at me. “If it isn’t Nicky boy, it’s nice to finally meet you.”I

    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
