____________ ...~ ~ ~ J A C K S O N ~ ~ ~."What?" Olivia looked ready to beat her own father up. "I don't want to. Why would you even suggest that?""Well, since you have decided to give Jackson another chance, despite our disagreement, I don't see any reason for you to still stay seven hours away from the headquarters," Daniel replied through the video call.I rolled my eyes.I had to agree about one thing - Daniel Smith had a competition going on with my biological father as to who the shittier one was.They had been on call for the past twenty minutes and not once he asked how Olivia was doing, how Kelsey was doing or what she really wanted.He didn't even say he missed them and wanted them back because of that.He was only worried about the profits that Olivia could make at the headquarters."But Kelsey is happy here," Olivia argued, pacing the room with the phone aimed at her face. "And she has made friends.""Friends can be made anywhere, Olivia." Daniel's voice was firm.

_____________...~ ~ ~ O L I V I A ~ ~ ~.Everything was happening so fast.Jackson was being such an understanding, loving husband. He was like his old self.And that was exactly what was scaring me.After all, the man had pretended to be the best guy for me for seven whole months before trampling all over my heart.What if he did it again?All the doubts that guarded me when he first came back returned with a vengeance. And I was starting to realize how much of a dumbass I was to give him such easy access to me and Kelsey.But the sweet way he looked at her, the gentle way he talked to her, the love in his eyes... It all made me want to believe him.I sighed and took my phone out.When in doubt, call your lawyer best friend.That was what I did.The phone rang for a few seconds before it was picked up. "Hello?""Hey, it's me," I said, pacing the room."Well duh." Came Sarah's voice. "I have your number saved for the past... well, whenever I had gotten my first phone. Yours were t

_____________...~ ~ ~ O L I V I A ~ ~ ~."Will Jasmine come to visit?" Kelsey asked, her eyes wide with hope.It had been three weeks since we moved back to our city.I didn't want to live in the apartment that Jackson and I once lived in anymore.So we were temporarily living in a two-story house.Jasmine and Kelsey had been friends since diaper days. I had met her lesbian mothers when we took them to baby swimming classes.And they had gone on so many playdates since then."We will visit her soon, my love." I looked up from my laptop.I was back at the headquarters and I was back to being a workaholic. Except, I did alternate afternoons from home.Mom took over the other afternoons.Jackson was eyeballs deep in work due to some merger mishap that occurred while he was away.He rarely came home before Kelsey's bedtime anymore. But he still managed to squeeze in as much love for her as he could in the fleeting morning breakfast time that the father and daughter spent together.It

_____________...~ ~ ~ O L I V I A ~ ~ ~.After the moment in the kitchen, Jackson said he was going to change into something more comfortable while I finished making my sandwich.I sighed to myself, my whole body tingling all over from that chaste hug of his.I put the sandwich together and took a bite, trying to shake off the funny feeling in the pit of my stomach.I took a seat on the living room couch and put on a random sitcom.Jackson emerged from upstairs in sweatpants and a t-shirt, looking more relaxed than before.He sat down next to me on the couch, picking up the TV remote. "What are we watching?""Just some mindless sitcom." I took another bite of my sandwich, my eyes flicking towards him.Jackson leaned back and sighed, his hand finding mine on the couch. "Can I have a bite?" He asked, looking over at me.I handed him my sandwich without a second thought. He took a bite and gave me a small smile."Thanks," he mumbled before turning his attention back to the TV.He too

I said."We are not going to spend too much time in the cold." He assured me and held his hand out.I stared at his hand for a moment, wondering if I really trusted him before I decided that I did not have to be hesitant for something so trivial and took it, his warmth seeping into my skin.Jackson led me outside and his car was outside in the cold, and not in the garage.I raised a questioning brow at him."I saw the reminder on the calendar." He confessed sheepishly. "I knew Casey was going to take monkey out and even I had a less hectic day at work so I thought I might as well steal you away."My mouth formed an O."Where are we going?" I asked, looking down at the cozy sweater and leggings, the cold started to bite into my legs."That's a surprise." He wrapped his arm around me and ushered me into the car, which wa

"Not really renewal, but the actual establishment of vows." She mumbled. I pursed my lips. "Look!" She held her hands up. "I know I seem blah but I am not any less excited than you, okay? It's just that-" I burst out laughing. "I know," I said. "What?" She looked away. "The idea of working with William Harvey for one wedding was bad enough, right?" I asked Sarah let out a heavy sigh and she slumped in her chair. "That man micromanages EVERYTHING." I let out a laugh. "Oh come on, darling. It's not like you are any better." She narrowed her eyes at me. "Are you taking his side?" "I am not," I replied, taking another sip of my delicious coffee. "I am just stating a fact." Sarah rolled her eyes at me. "Well, at least he's good at what he does. But yes, he's a bit much."I raised a brow

He sounded like a zombie trying to be cheerful as he got into the car."Long day?" I asked, reaching over to give his shoulder a comforting squeeze.Jackson nodded, his eyes closing briefly as he leaned into the touch. "Long week.""Maybe we should schedule this session for some other day? You need to get some rest." I suggested, looking at the dark circles under his eyes.Jackson shook his head. "No, we need to do this." He leaned back in the seat and took a deep breath. "I need to do this."I sighed. "This is not some race, Jackson. We don't have a deadline. We can take our time. Now, we need to prioritize your health."He looked over at me, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. "You sound just like Mom."That made m

I don't know what I said in my sleep, Liv.""Well, I assume it should be the truth because people do not get to lie in their sleep." I replied. I was not going to let this go. Not that easily.Jackson looked away from me. "I... I don't remember saying that."I tilted my head to the side. There was no way I heard wrong. I was not delusional."You are hiding something from me." I told him. "I just know it."Was he? Was he hiding something from me? Or was he pretending to not remember trying to manipulate? I did not trust him. But I also had no choice but to ask him itself for the truth."Jackson," I said, my voice firm. "Look at me."He slowly met my gaze, his eyes filled with a mix of exhaustion and apprehension."You need to tell me what's going on," I insisted. "If we're going to do

Sarah was on her feet.It was no surprise that she could not believe what had happened that day."Jackson gave me Lilith Corp.," I repeated for the third time, my voice devoid of any emotion. "And I told him no."Sarah sat back down, her eyes wide. "Why, Liv? That's a huge deal. That company is worth millions! Billions!"I shrugged, trying to ignore the heaviness in my heart. "It's too much. It's not just a company, it's his mother's legacy.""So?" Sarah flipped her hair. "He doesn't deserve it. He proved he is more of his father's son than his mother's.""It's not about what he deserves," I said, feeling the weight of my decision. "It's about what's right."Sarah's eyes searched mine, "I am still against it. But whatever you feel right, I will support. I hope it's not because you still have feelings for him?"I shook my head, "No, it's not that. I just can't take something that means so much to him, especially not wh

"I'm giving you Lilith Corp. It's the least I can do after everything.""You can't just give me your company," I said, my voice shaking with disbelief. "It's your mother's legacy."Jackson took a deep breath. "I know, but she's gone now, and I can't bear to keep it. Not when it's the root of so much pain between us. Take it, Olivia. Use it to build a future for Monkey, without me if that's what you want."I stared at him in shock. "Why?"Jackson reached for my hand, but I pulled it away. "Because I love you," he said simply. "And I know you love our monkey more than anything. This way, she'll have a future that's secure, no matter what happens between us."The room started to spin as his words sunk in.Lilith Corp was a multi-billion dollar company, and he was handing it over like it

Kelsey's voice was filled with excitement as she looked up at me from the couch in Sarah's living room.Sarah was still at work, and she didn't know what was going on yet. I just told her I needed space and was going to the apartment.The full story was something that I needed to tell Sarah in person.So, I picked Kelsey up from kindergarten and drove straight to her apartment.Kelsey was confused about why we were going to Sarah's out of nowhere, why all our bags were packed, and why Pickles was in the car with me. She had so many questions, but all she knew was that she was getting to see Auntie Sarah."Daddy might be busy, monkey." I lied. "Let's not disturb him at work, okay?"Kelsey pouted. "But Daddy told me I can call him anytime I want.""I know, sweetie, but he's probably busy with important work stuff," I said, trying to keep my voice steady."But he said-""I know what he said," I interrupted her,

"You told her everything?"The whiskey burned my throat but it was the only thing keeping me sane at that moment. I nodded. "Yeah."William's eyes widened even further. I didn't even think that was possible. "You know what this means, right? She's going to leave you. And take Kelsey with her."I took another sip of my whiskey. "No, she is not."William looked at me like I had just told him I was going to walk on water. "What makes you so sure?"I smirked. "Olivia Smith is wired to be a doormat to the person she loves the most. And right now, she loves Kelsey the most. And Kelsey? She just adores her new-found Daddy."William paused for a moment. "You really going to use Kelse like that?"I sighed. William had been spending too much time with Monkey apparently. The man never really

"Your Dad left you and Lily because of my Mom."Jackson nodded, his expression tight. "Yes.""But what did my Mom even do?" I asked, feeling the tears stream down my face. I wanted to get off the chair, I wanted to yell at him. But I did not have the energy for either. It was like I was paralyzed.Jackson took a moment before speaking, his voice filled with pain. "Nothing. She did nothing wrong.""But you punished me for it," I whispered, feeling the anger swell up inside me. "You hurt me, Kelsey... all because of a spiteful revenge against my mother, who has to be the least affected by any of this."Jackson's face fell. "I know. And I regret it every day. I was blinded by rage and bitterness. I wanted to show her the kind of pain she caused us, but I ended up causing you more than I ever intended."I stared at him in disbelief. "How coul
