THE BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED GIRLFRIEND CHAPTER 85
OliviaI left the house angrily.How could Asher have done such a thing to me?!I wanted him to finish what he started, badly but of course, I never said that out.It would only fuel his ego if I ever said that and he would surely taunt me for life. Both of which, I didn't want to happen.He bade me goodbye before driving off.My mind drifted back to Mrs Smith as I made my way into the company.Strangely, there was still no sign of her.When Asher's secretary came over to assist me with some work, I enquired about Mrs Smith but she also said she hadn't seen her too.What could she be planning?I wanted to call Rita for a short girl hang out but I was too busy with everything.I heard from Asher's secretary that Mr Smith had arranged for a meeting with the board members in few days and we needed to make the preparations perfect, especially because of the main reason Mr Smith had called for the meeting-Joseph.At least Asher would be present in the company, one last time.I had forgotte

OliviaAs anticipated, Gloria was stunned to see us at the mall.She almost went crazy, trying to get us the perfect dresses.It was sometimes cute when Gloria was a perfectionist but at certain times, she could be really extreme."This is so exciting." Anna giggled as we rode to the Smith family mansion.It felt so good to see her happy, to witness everyone being happy.Finally…..I smiled as the driver drove into the big compound.Honestly, I don't think I would ever get tired of being mesmerized by the beauty of the house, not even if I came here a hundred times or even lived here.The driver helped us with the door, holding Anna's hand as she got out of the car.Once we were all out, he got into the car to park it in a much better position.The butler who had welcomed Asher and I the last time I was here, rushed to us, smiling brightly as he greeted us all.It was very obvious from his countenance that he knew about Joseph already.I guess everyone was happy to have him around, ex
THE BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED GIRLFRIEND CHAPTER 87
AsherIt felt satisfying watching my entire family eat like this, happily.Even though it was obvious that my mother wasn't happy with Olivia and Joseph's presence, it was gladdening that she still stayed anyway."So Joseph, you've never really told us about yourself." I started a general conversation, taking my hand under the table and placing them on Olivia's tighs.She jerked and brought her hand under the table in a bid to yank mine off.Unfortunately for her, I was much stronger."Well, I love having dinner with my family." He started, smiling cutely.It was really bewildering to see that he looked more like Anna than I did.Even their smiles were just the same."That's really sweet." My grandmother said to him, patting his back like she would do to me."And also, I love to read, a lot." Once he said that, Olivia's attention left my hand on her thigh and fully settled with Joseph."Really? I love to read a lot too!" She seemed really excited.I never knew Olivia could be this abo

Asher"What is it mom?!" I asked my mother as she made her way into the kitchen.Not too long after I arrived at the kitchen she arrived too."Do you still want me to spill?" She crossed her arms under her chest and tilted to one side, simply glaring at me.I knew exactly what she was about to say; complain about Joseph and Olivia, and find faults in them, faults that she believed disqualified them from being amongst us.But I remained silent."Oh…. you're gonna keep playing the dumb game?" She raised her voice a little."Why are we here mother? I thought we were finally one happy family? Do you realize that we were just having dinner as a complete family for the first time?!" I raised my voice at her too."It's not a family dinner if strangers are allowed." She stated.This was definitely about Olivia and Joseph.From the last family dinner, she didn't seem to be against Olivia's friend, Rita.So what exactly had Olivia done to her, to make her hate her so much?!"Asher, can't you se

AsherOlivia stared at me with I returned to my seat.I wasn't ready to talk about my mother as it would only ruin the dinner for Olivia and I.And possibly, everyone.Everyone ate and conversed happily until dinner was eventually over but it wasn't the same for me.I stopped enjoying everything the minute my mother texted me.All through the rest of the night, she tried throwing shades by making points about Olivia and Joseph that only I understood.If only I could go to bed and wake up to be told that this woman wasn't my biological mother, tomorrow.We ended dinner pretty late but still, I refused to spend the night at the family house.There was absolutely no way my night would remain the name, not after my mother had ruined it."Do you wanna discuss what's going on now? Or do we get home before you do so instead?" Olivia asked, bringing me back to reality.She knew there was something bothering me but how was I supposed to tell her that my mother had accused her of sleeping aroun

OliviaIt was finally Asher's family game night.Joseph and I had chosen the book we both wanted to buy at the store for everyone to read, THE BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED GIRLFRIEND.The second time we went to the store, the lady had more copies.Asher didn't seem to agree to it initially because it was the definition of our lives in written form.But with a lot of persuasion, he finally have in.So, here we are, ready for the quiz."I welcome you all to Smith first ever family game night!" James said, dramatically.Marianna had forced him to host the game.Their relationship was just too adorable, even for their age.As we all cheered, I glanced over at Mrs Smith who looked happy.It wasn't surprising that she looked happy, she had organized all of this anyway.Even though I know her happiness wasn't genuine, it was still satisfying to see everyone smiling tonight."So the rules are as simple as reading the book. All you have to do is answer the question asked once it gets to your turn. Ther

AsherI stirred in my sleep, expecting that someone would be beside me.But when I ran my hand on the bed, all I felt were the cold sheets.My eyes snapped open, scanning the room for Olivia.I got out of bed and checked the bathroom but she was not there."Where could she be?" I asked myself, putting on my robe as I exited the room in search of Olivia.The first place I checked was the living room but she wasn't there.I checked the poolside and the balcony but there was no sign of her.I returned to the room, just in case she had returned from wherever she went but she still wasn't there.I tried calling her phone but I heard it's ringing from the side of the bed where she slept.She didn't take her phone with her.My mind drifted back to the two times she had been abducted but then, I shook off the thought.There was no way she would have been taken from the room and I wouldn't have noticed.Moreover, the gatekeepers would have raised an alarm if anyone had broken into the house.J

AsherI moved closer to the bed, unnoticed.Before she would turn over, I covered her mouth and kissed her hair."What was that for?! You really enjoy scaring me, don't you?" She frowned, playfully hitting my chest.I got into bed, laughing.This never gets old."Where were you anyway?" She asked me, laying on her side so she could look at me."Where were you?" I replied to her with a question.Pulling the sheets over her, Olivia sat up, her back on the bed head just the same way I was seated."I couldn't sleep so I got out of bed. I knew you were tired and decided not to wake you." She answered."Well, I want you to know that no matter how tired I was, you can trust me to always be there when you need me. So don't ever feel like I would be too tired to be there for you, okay?" I took her face in my hands, regretting ever getting mad at her over something so unnecessary."I know that look Asher. You only give that look when you want something from me." She moved away from me, chucklin

Several Weeks LaterOliviaA lot has happened since the abduction.Rita faced trial and sentenced to thirty years imprisonment with hard labour.I didn't want to be there at the court but I had to.The kids had spent quality time with my father just like Gloria had.She still hadn't said anything as regards her obvious feelings for my father but I wasn't going to rush her.She had all the time in the world to think carefully about her feelings for him.Jeremy got back once he heard the news of the abduction.He was horrified when I told him more about it, especially about Rita; my best friend being the perpetrator of such evil.It was often said that sometimes, it was the people we know that hurt us the most.Mrs Smith and Rita had in need no doubt, proved that to be true.Now that Jeremy was back, he helped out with setting up my business.I wasn't exactly sure of what I wanted to do but I was eager to try out something new, something that didn't involve me working under anyone."It

OliviaI jumped in fright when the door came down, dust rising in the air.I had to close my eyes for a second and when I opened them again, I saw Asher standing right before me."Asher?" I tried to get to him but the ropes that tightened around my skin reminded me that I couldn't.He noticed this and rushed to me."Olivia? Oh my goodness! What happened? Where is she?" He asked multiple questions as he freed me.I answered none, I had no time to.Once I was completely free, I tried to run in the direction I had seen her go after she said what she was going to do to the twins and I."Where are you going?" Asher dragged me back even before I could make a move.I tried to wriggle out of his grip but I couldn't."She has the kids Asher. She has Kian and Kianna!" I didn't realize that there were tears in my eyes until they began rolling down my face.I had never been this scared of anything before.The image of Rita's malicious laughter that continued popping up in my head reminded me of t

AsherSebastian arrived on time while I alerted the police.Mr Anderson seemed to be troubled by their presence but I was too worried about Olivia's absence that nothing else seemed to matter to me.According to them, they were close to finding her but I knew they were only saying that to make her family and I feel better.They couldn't track her phone, it was like it had been thrown into water.Whoever had called earlier, didn't call anymore which made me more nervous.Usually, when abductors want something, they keep calling and threatening the victim's family until they get what they want in exchange of letting the victim go.But it wasn't the same in this case.The abductor wasn't making any call which made me feel like he might have all of what he wanted already buy only called the other time to know that she had what I loved.I couldn't help but fear that she might try to harm Olivia and the twins.If she made any attempt to, I would make sure to punish her myself before handing

Olivia"Rita?" I gasped, staring at her."H…..h…No, this isn't real!" I tried to assure myself but failed miserably.Now that I listened carefully, Janette sounded just like Rita.Little wonder she felt oddly familiar and I felt strange around her.She was the person I had been looking for, for so long!"I had plastic surgeries done after the incident of the video. I thought that I could win Asher's heart if I came around when you were no longer in his life but that wouldn't work too. Even with you gone, no other girl was able to take your place in his heart. Despite how much he despised you for what he thought you had done to him, he still loved you. It was inexplicable but undeniable, Asher still loved you, deeply." She explained, moving away from the bed."So you never wanted me with Asher all these while? Best friends are always happy for each other's happiness and we were supposed to be best friends, Rita." I felt mad and hurt.I had trusted her so much as more than a friend.Rit

OliviaI felt a sharp pain at the back of my head and my eyes fluttered open instantly.I closed it back afterward, like the pain would magically go away afterward.And surprisingly, it did.I tried to get up only for me to realize that I couldn't.I struggled but I couldn't even get my hands away from my back.I struggled over and over but the more I struggled, the harder it became.I couldn't take my hands away from my back simply because I couldn't but because I had been tied up.How the hell did I end up like this?!The last thing I remembered was getting prepared for my date with Asher.I was supposed to be on my way to New York City if the driver hadn't switched lanes and……That was it!When I tried to argue with him, he locked the car doors and sprayed something in the car.I passed out afterward.Whatever he had sprayed in the car must have been the reason I passed out as I couldn't remember anything after that.I looked around wherever I was but I couldn't see anything but da

AsherSeveral minutes have passed after the time Olivia was supposed to meet up with me.I didn't want to call her because I needed her to take her time and do as she pleased.But her absence here was beginning to get uncomfortable until I was pushed to take out my phone.I placed it on my ear after dialing her number, waiting for to hear her voice from the other side of the phone but that never happened.I dialed her number over and over again but it just rang with her never answering the phone."This is not some joke, Olivia. Pick up your phone." I mumbled under my shaky breath."Would you like to place your order now sir?" The waitress walked up to me and asked for the umpteenth time.I had waved at her not to worry severally, because my date was on her way here and I didn't find it fair to place orders without her presence.I had somehow however, managed to attract the attention of the other customers around.This was a restaurant for couples only and I had over time, reassured th

OliviaMy didn't speak of Asher until later that night.And fortunately, he gave his full support toward my relationship with Asher.At the hospital, he had shown his displeasure in my decision to stick to Asher but decided he could do nothing against it since it had been my decision.But last night, he had told me that he was ready to fully support me.I think seeing the way the kids acted around their father must have made mine consider his decision and support me."You're going to be late if you keep staring at the mirror like that, Lila." Gloria said, suddenly coming out of nowhere and startling me.I visited Asher and his family frequently after we got back from the hospital.So I got in touch with Gloria again.Asher wanted me to return to the company but so much had happened, too much actually, for me to wish to return to that place.So, I was just going to to set up my own business like Jeremy had suggested.Today, I and Asher were going on a date.I also refused to move in wi

Asher"Oh….that…." She stuttered uncomfortably."It's fine if you're not ready to come over yet. I honestly do not wish to make you feel uncomfortable." I quickly said when I realized she hadn't meant what she said to Sebastian.It was unexpected that she had actually let me into Kian and Kianna's lives.I didn't want it to seem like I was taking advantage of her kind heart and making her do things she wasn't comfortable doing.She shifted on the chair and just looked outside the car at the house like she could see through it."I've not decided on that yet." She spoke up after a long moment of silence and I nodded."I understand. Whenever you're ready, you could just call me to come pick you and the kids." I responded and she nodded, smiling genuinely."I guess this is goodbye then." She got ready to leave the car."Wait….!" I called her back, pulling her in for a kiss.My lips were almost on hers when she withdrew."What are you doing?" She whispered, her breath fanning my face."Oh…

OliviaAsher and the twins woke up shortly after I left the ward and Sebastian helped them get ready.I was right about my dad going back home to bring some clothes and food for the twins and I.And just as I had planned with Sebastian, I took the clothes and food he brought for me."Do you think Kianna and Kian would still want to come home with me?" My dad asked when I returned from the restroom where I changed."Why do you think they wouldn't want to? They've been so eager to see you." I responded, taking a seat beside him.Ever since Sebastian and Asher made it to the hospital last night, my dad's mood had completely changed.I could tell that he was worried.Initially, I thought it was only about Asher, regarding everything that had happened in the past.But now, it seemed he was bothered beyond that."It's just that, their dad's here now. I can't help but feel like they would forget about me so soon. Usually, they would want to be around me but since last night, they've just sti
