OLIVIANINE MONTHS LATERPrison had been hard, not just because I was pregnant but because of how I was treated. But I was grateful for one thing—Ethan kept his word. The guard he’d bribed continued to bring me vitamins and took care of me as promised.But when he wasn’t around, the others would con
NICKTwo years have passed since that woman humiliated me, since I found out she stole millions from me. How could I have been so stupid and blind? When Sandra told me that Olivia had a hand in what happened to my mother all those years ago—how they met, how Olivia “just happened” to save her from
NICKMy parents left and Sandra came out from the kitchen. She was crying and I didn’t like it. I didn’t know why my parents would be so cruel to her, she was not the one who did all those things to me. she was the one who saved me from a bad situation and showed me the kind of wife I had.I didn’t
OLIVIAPrison became hell for me after I gave birth. The policeman who helped me before, transferred two days later. I think he was so traumatized by what he saw that he didn’t want to be anywhere near me after. I had an infection after giving birth, but I didn’t know that it was an infection. I tho
OLIVIAI felt numb as I sat in that car, “Take me to her grave, I want to see it.” I wanted to tell her how sorry I was for not being there for her, for not being able to take care of her like she did with me when my parents died. I wanted to apologise to her for causing her death. “We don’t know it
OLIVIAI wished he did. I didn’t even know why he didn’t come to the prison to serve me with those divorce papers. I waited for him to come; I was ready. Why didn’t he do it? “No, but I want to divorce him, you can tell him to bring the divorce papers and I will sign them.”I wanted nothing to do wi
NICKI 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
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 wom
OLIVIALupita walked away, just when I let out a breath, my dad appeared out of nowhere. “You gave me a fright.” I was still traumatized by what happened at our previous home. People appearing out of nowhere still scared me.“Am sorry.” I took Lilly from him; my baby had grown but I hated that she
OLIVIA“You chased him away, didn’t you?” I turned to find Lupita standing behind me looking angry. It made me wonder if she was angry with me or something happened before she went there. “No, he decided to leave.” She scoffed as if she didn’t believe a word I said.“It’s because you never wanted hi
NICKI stopped in front of Olivia’s mansion; it was breathtakingly beautiful. I was jealous, Luke did well, and the place was secured. I got out of the car and was met with a drunk Ethan and Luke. “Are we celebrating already?” Luke just shook his head and focused on the doll in his arms.I scanned t
OLIVIAI hated my timing, I always had to appear at the time when people were talking about something I shouldn’t hear. Just like now, I shouldn’t have heard anything about Nick being a psychopath as they believed. Now since he is Samuel’s father, I needed to get involved with him again.Try to figu
LUKEMy mind went blank, and I just stared at Ethan. We both agreed to get Nick help, and he was the one who was insisting on we do that. I didn’t know what changed between then and now. could they have met, and Nick said something to make his best friend think he was a psychopath?“Luke, please bel
ETHANI could tell the question caught him off guard, which was good, he had no time to ponder and come up with excuses as to why he did it. He poured himself a generous amount of alcohol and drank it in one go. “Why would you ask me that?” He couldn’t even look me in the eyes and that told me, he d
NICK“Why would you do something so selfish!” He raised an eyebrow even tilted his head to the side slightly, he had this questioning looking at if he had a deep question for me to answer. “Look who’s talking, you are calling me selfish?” He chuckled, went around the counter, and poured himself a dr
MARCUSI was coming from the cold storage to get some bacon when I heard Ethan talking to my wife. I fumed in anger and my hands curled into fists. He had no shame and no remorse for what he did. He didn’t regret a thing. When I spoke to him, he apologized saying he didn’t mean to offend me. Even th
OLIVIAAs I sat there not knowing what to do, I began to think that Luke was right about not telling Marcus anything. Anyway, I didn’t tell him anything, he found out on his own and was now angry. I didn’t know who his anger was directed. It was not like I did anything wrong; Ethan was the one who k
