NICKI threw the phone on the wall, and it shuttered into pieces. Father looked at me with a raised eyebrow not moved at all by my outburst. Just when I thought I was wrong about my wife, she goes and does something like this. If she wanted to be with Walker, then why couldn’t she just be with him w
OLIVIAI sat there watching the news with my jaw dropped. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing and seeing in the news and the silence from the Jones family was worrisome. They must know that the situation was not going to go away without them addressing it.It was midday and the news broke in the m
OLIVIAMy hands shook as I typed a reply. “Nick, I didn’t do this, you have to believe me.” my eyes were glued to the screen waiting for his reply. I didn’t want to get on Nick’s bad side like that. I wanted revenge yes but in business. I would never go after the family like that. I was not that kin
NICKTwo days later and the news about my dad and sister had not died down yet. I was sick of it and wanted it to be over already. But it seemed the reporters were not going to stop until they got the whole story. My parents refused to indulge them, they refused to give a statement again and give th
NICKI was shocked, mother would never do something like that. “What are you talking about?” she ignored me and took her bag then headed to the door with me following behind. “I assume you parked at the back, yes?” I nodded and she walked forward.I couldn’t get what she said out of my mind. What di
NICK“Dad, I…” he shook his head with a disappointed look in his face. “You took that boy from his mother, didn’t you?” I said nothing. “Damnit Nick, didn’t you learn anything from what is happening between me and your sister? Why would you do something like this?”“Because Olivia is not a good role
OLIVIAI sat on the couch close to the window watching Samuel play ball with Lupita. It has been two days since Nick threatened me and I couldn’t take my eyes off my son. Not for a second. He was the only thing Nick could take from me that would destroy me.I was so paranoid that I jumped at every l
NICKShe was pissing me off big time. She knew nothing of what was going on between Olivia and I. yet, she insisted on poking her nose where it doesn’t belong. “Stay out of this, you don’t know what is going on here and being a Jones for all of two minutes, doesn’t give you the right to involve your
MARCUSI sat there and watched my wife. From the first moment we arrived at the restaurant, and she saw the guys to the moment that woman arrived. When she saw the guys, she had been disappointed, she wanted the celebration to be just us.I got that but I didn’t want them coming to our home, I had p
OLIVIAThe last three months had been…I didn’t know how to describe them. Quiet was not the right word, maybe lonely would have been better in that situation. It took a while for us to get used to being alone, just us. It had never been just us since we got married. Nick and Ethan always hung around
NICKI wanted to wipe that smug look off his face with a punch, who the hell did he think he was? to blackmail me like that. Using my son! I looked him dead in the eyes ready to punch him. “Go ahead, punch me. it will be more evidence against you.” He smirked, “See these cameras around?” the bastard
MARCUSI looked at the man, the audacity he had to come into my house after everything he had done. He even looked scared as if he were a man caught cheating by his wife. What the hell was going through that moron’s mind?I couldn’t even be angry at him anymore, it was no use, Nick was obsessed with
MARCUSAnger, that was what I felt as I left that room. leaving my hurting wife behind not knowing what the hell happened to her while she was away. She was happy when she left, she couldn’t wait to see Lupita. What did that woman do to her?I walked downstairs with Ethan following me behind. “How i
OLIVIAI was holding tears the whole drive home. My chest burned and my heart was sore. Our families and those closest to us could deceive us sometimes. Tell us we were good, doing good, but they failed to point it out when we were doing wrong. When we were hurting those, we claimed to love.No one
OLIVIAI straightened on my seat looking at her for a moment without saying anything. I knew she was hurting, and I wanted to find the right words to say to her. “I know I have put you through a lot, being around me has put your life in danger many times and I am sorry I neglected you in all those t
OLIVIAI woke up early, got myself and the kids ready. By the time Marcus woke up, we were already in the kitchen having breakfast. “Where are you all going without me?” I just smiled and served him breakfast. I had been missing Lupita a lot since she moved out.I had given her time to settle in lik
NICKI thought I could hold it in a little while longer, keep pretending to like her but when she mentioned being angry with Olivia. I couldn’t hold it in anymore. Who the hell did she think she was? She couldn’t even compare to Olivia.Yes, her grandmother died, but that was not Olivia’s fault. Tha
