Olivia got back into the queue after helping Emma, although she left, not wanting to join the audition again.

As time went on, the long straight line was getting smaller. Several girls who were disqualified were trooping out of the building, their faces scrunched in anger.

Just as they kept going, joining the line as it shortens, Olivia heard whispers at her back.

“Omg how can she be dressed as a tomboy and come for an audition?”

“Valerie, you're just so jealous. Look, she's beautiful and has a nice figure from the back. Look at those smooth long legs!”

“Nonsense! Who's jealous? She's just lucky to have a nice body, who knows, her face might be too ugly.” She sneered.

Just then, Olivia turned to look at them, they were obviously discussing her, as if she wasn't there.

“Oh my god!” the girl who defended her earlier gasped, widening her eyes in shock.

The girl who seems to be Valerie paused, suddenly knitting her brows, as she stared at Olivia dumbfounded.

    Olivia was having breakfast with Morgan in the morning. As much as she didn't want to see his face, she knew nothing could be done.Morgan kept stealing glances at Olivia, while she was busy flipping the food over and over, bringing none to her mouth.His eyes wandered to her wrist and paused on a red mark on her wrist, his heart tugged with pain. He quickly looked away and got up to leave.Olivia raised her face to look at him, but he had already turned his back and left, she could only stare at his back.She retracted her gaze and stared at the food for a while before getting up to leave the table. She had thought Morgan was different, he was nice to her even though it was only Contract. But looking back at what happened last night, she took back those words. He was far from nice, he was just like everybody out there, selfish and greedy. And all she was going to do was stay in his silent mansion all day, and pretend to be his wife in public.Nonsense!Olivia was about to get into

    Fredrick burst into laughter, as his gaze washed over Olivia, who now furrowed her brows. “Okay sorry, sorry. I don't mean it that way, but how's that even possible?” He said through laughter, as he held his stomach. “What do you mean by that?” Nicholas asked, shooting him a questioning glare. “Morgan I know is everything but women?…talk more about marriage. Nahh, Nicole, I don't believe that.” Fredrick shook his head. “Well then, you've seen with your eyes.” All through the conversation, Olivia's mind has been drifting back to what Aunt Maureen said. Is he really a gay? “Why do you not believe it?” Olivia suddenly asked, glancing at Fredrick. He smiled softly and began. “I and Morgan were in the same College, we schooled together in the States. I've known that dude for way too long, he's so abstinent when it comes to women that I sometimes wonder if he could get a wife. You need to see tropes of girls that flocked themselves around him then, but he wouldn't even bu

    It was raining heavily in Morning, Olivia was cuddled up in her bed, thinking about many things. From the possibilities of Morgan being a gay to going back to school.Olivia was happy, she was finally getting back to school, and Rescrest for the matter. Her lips tugged with smile as she couldn't wait.She was still thinking when her mom came into her mind, her mood dropped. The vegetative state her mother was in, were all caused by Larry and she'd forever hate it.Olivia was at least glad that she ran into Morgan, though he couldn't be tagged as good.Someone knocked on her door, snapping her out of her thoughts. Shortly the door was opened and Nicholas walked in, he was carrying a set of packaged clothes and a box.“Good morning Nick,” Olivia yawned, getting up from bed.Nicholas seems to pause for a while, his gaze snapping at Olivia. Olivia, who seemed to notice his sudden change let out a laugh.“You shouldn't be like this all the time. You remember Ava calling you an old man?, th

    Evaris Lounge, A black Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, pulled up In Front of the night club, with Olivia and Morgan walking out of the car.Nicholas was already ahead of them, pushing away the piles of press, who were gathered with the flashing light of their cameras.Olivia suddenly became tense, her palms becoming sweaty as she looked away from the camera. Her face can't be shown in the news headline, only that way would be fine even after ending the contract with Morgan.Morgan, who noticed her obvious change, shot her a questioning glance. She shook her head, returning an assuring yet fake smile.Soon they were inside the club. Normally, Morgan wouldn't sit in an area where he was easily recognized or within reach.He took the elevator, which brought him to the top floor of the building, the VIP section of the club.Finally they were in a presidential room, which screamed of affluence and extravagant luxury.Olivia was met with two men, they were dressed so casually, yet maintained a

    Later that night, Morgan woke up and carried Olivia into his bed. She whined, twitching her face in the process, but later relaxed.Meanwhile, Morgan watched her closely, his eyes studying every inch of her face.His heart fluttered, for nothing else but for the tiny figure occupying his bed. He pulled her closer, holding her waist as he leaned his face into her nook, inhaling her pleasant smell, until he slept off.******Xavier sat on his couch, his gaze fixed on the led plasma television hung in his extravagantly furnished sitting room.He was about to turn it off and leave for work, when a headline caught his attention.YOUNG MASTER MORGAN WAS SEEN WITH A WOMAN LAST NIGHT AT A NIGHTCLUB. AS THE WOMAN'S FACE REMAINS UNKNOWN, NETIZENS WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHO THE WOMAN IS….Xavier frowned, his mind drifting back to the girl he saw in the hospital, as Morgan's wife. Could she really be Morgan's wife? They didn't even have a wedding…Who exactly was this girl?Xavier thought as a bad id

    Gilbert cleared his throat, bringing Olivia's attention to him.“Dad” she smiled, getting up from the chair to help him up.“Oli dear, how are you doing?” He smiled.“I’m fine dad. How's your health?”“I'd be fine dear.” Olivia nodded, reaching for the black bag she came in with. She happened to see a store where they sold fruits and told Nicholas to take her there to buy them.She took out the fruits from the bag, “I got you fruits, dad.” she said, turning on the faucet that was on the other side of the room, to wash the fruits.“That's thoughtful of you. Morgan wouldn't even buy me fruits when coming.” Olivia laughed, returning to her seat, as she started peeling an apple for him.“Are your parents alive?” Gilbert suddenly asked. His eyes read Olivia's expression.Olivia paused, hesitating on what to say. If anyone was dead, it was her father. Even though her mom was still in a coma, her father was the dead one.“No, my mom is alive.” “I'm sorry about your father.” Gilbert said,

    The drive to Morgan's house was smooth and nice. Olivia found Xavier to be very nice, he was way opposite from Morgan. Easy going and funny.Xavier also told her that their mother were different, and that his own mother was alive.“Thanks so much, for the ride.” Olivia smiled, getting out from the door.“Oh common, you're my sister in-law. I'd help you whenever and however I can.” Xavier shrugged, releasing a soft smile.“Thank you again.” She smiled, waving him goodbye as he went back into his car and drove off.Olivia was all smiles as she entered into the mansion. Morgan wasn't home yet and as usual the house was quiet, with the securities roaming around the compound.She went into the kitchen to find food, but none was available. Who was she kidding, Aunt Maureen was not around.She opened the fridge and as expected, it was stucked with abundance of food items. Olivia hesitated on what to cook, she could actually make dinner for herself, eat and go to bed. But thinking of Morgan,

    “Are you just going to keep standing?” Morgan asked, filling his mouth with a full spoon of rice.Olivia sat down, waiting for a handful of reprimands, but none came, as Morgan was invested in the meal before him.She had prepared Adobo chicken, Lechon, tamarind broth and veggies. Her gaze scoured his face to see any visible change, of dissatisfaction or enjoyment.But his face remained aloof, not giving out an expression that showed how he felt.Soon, the food was finished. Morgan stood up, after wiping his mouth with the towel, he glanced at Olivia.“Thanks for the meal.”He said, moving away from the dinning. Olivia frowned because she didn't get a comment, bad or good.“Are you not going to say anything about the food? How was it?”“You're too much.” He chuckled“Well, you still need to improve that skill of yours.”With that said, he turned and left.Olivia glanced at the empty plate, a slow smile escaping her lips. He finished the entire food, yet the only compliment he could ma

    Gilbert's ward**“Don't tell me you came here for Xavier, if yes, then leave, matter has already been decided on.”“I haven't come for Xavier, I know you've already made up your mind and I can't go against it. Anyways I brought your favorite meal, it's been a while and I decided to prepare it.” Cecilia smiled, bringing out the food flak that was in her bag.Gilbert shot her a glance, his gaze scrutinizing her smiley face. “You know, you don't need to do that to win my favor.”“Oh come on Gilbert, I'm not trying to win your favor, I just thought that it has been a while since I made you your favorite. So, I made it and brought it to you.” She smiled, making her voice as soft and coquettish as it could be, as she moved her chair near him.Gilbert chuckled, the Cecilia he knew would never prepare something for herself not to talk of person, especially him. She leaves all the chores for the maids in the mansion, and whenever she does something for him, she surely was wanting to ask for a

    “To visit you of course.” Hilda smiled, grabbing a chair, to sit close to her.“Why do you look like you're going to have a heart attack, I just came to visit and please don't have it. I can't bear to be accused of being the cause, when I only came to visit you.” “Get out of here, else I'd scream and call the doctor.” Lily threatened, her eyes glaring at her warily.Hilda chuckled slightly, as if she was hearing the biggest joke of her life. She leaned closer, a sneer on her face. “Try it and see how everyone will know the truth about your Olivia.” she challenged, her voice low.Lily paused, her whole body seething with anger and hatred for the woman right in front of her. All she knows how to do is to keep blackmailing her with her past.“Mom?” Ava shot her mother a glance, seeming to not understand why she was talking about Olivia.“Ava dear, don't you think you should wait for me outside the ward and watch when someone is coming. I'd be quick.” Hilda smiled, rubbing her temples.“

I bet no one recognized me.” Chandler laughed, pouring himself a drink.“You might be a gay, low key.” Vincent added, grabbing the wine from him.“Eww, what happens to pussies, boobs and curvy ass? I can't live without these, it's pretty obvious.” Chandler defended, making a face at Vincent.“My apologies, Miss Xenia.” Vincent teased, grinning at Chandler.“You're really not going to put in a good word for me, even after you made me turn into a woman. Goodness, i can't believe I did that.” Chandler face palmed himself pitifully, as he cracked up.“I had to look at you again, to be sure if really you were Chandler. Your voice was totally different.” Morgan added, sipping his wine.Vincent burst into anot

    Olivia woke In Morgan's bed, she turned around to him lying beside her, his arms wrapped around her waist.Even in his sleep, he looked vulnerably calm yet exuding the aura of nobility and danger. Olivia took in his features, a smile, which she didn't notice, escaping her lips.For some reasons, Olivia found herself to have pity on him. He had really been alone all his life, losing his mother, having an evil step brother, what about his step mother, who she hasn't even seen?This could be behind the reasons, Mr Gilbert made her promise him that she would always stay by his side. Olivia thought.In another second thought, Olivia considered trusting Morgan and caring for him, she promised to try to be a family of his, afterall he saved her.Just when she was thinking, her mind running wild with thoughts, she didn't notice Morgan's lashes were fluttering open, and were now looking at her.“Are you just going to keep staring at me?” His low, and gruffy voice asked, startling her, as she n

    Gilbert's Ward**“What is this, I'm seeing in the headline?” Gilbert asked, his gaze fixated at Morgan.“Is this the reason you called me here?” He asked, his voice angry, yet impatient.“What is this about? Who did Xavier kidnap? What really is going on.” “Dad, I'm trying not to let you bother with matters like this. Xavier is my younger brother and I know how to handle him.”“Tell me what I want to know already.” Gilbert barked.Morgan knew his father would stop at nothing to know what really happened, even if it meant stepping out of the ward.“Xavier had Olivia kidnapped and she was kept for a whole five days. You think I should go easy on him? No, I won't.”Morgan's temper was rising, as he tried to hold it in. Gilbert stared at him for a long time, suddenly dumbfounded.“You'd have my arranged, I'm going to the station tomorrow.” Gilbert said, finally breaking the silence.“You'd do no such thing.” “I'm going there and that's final. This feud between you both, should end. What

    Few days passed and Morgan was discharged from the hospital, he happened to heal faster than expected.“Father, I have every right to arrest him and I'm no one is bailing him out, until I say so.” Morgan's low yet commanding voice stated.“Gilbert, you won't let that happen, will you? I know Xavi, he hasn't done anything, Morgan is just trying to jail him because he's jealous of his success.” Cecilia pleaded, making her voice as soft as it could be.Morgan scoffed, it was like he was hearing the biggest joke of his life. He knew Cecilia more than anyone, even more than Xavier, her son, she was evil and ostentatious and he was going to make her take the same medicines she once gave to him.Morgan had Xavier arrested, after he had ordered his men to first give him a slow and painful torture. Now his father seeked to know the reason, and Cecilia- Xavier's mother was there of course to cover for her son.“Morgan, I demand to know the reason he was arrested.” Gilbert, his angry eyes fixed

    Olivia gasped, widening her eyes in shock as she glanced at mother, who's eyes were now moistened.“No mom, that's not possible, the doctor can find another way. I'm sure of that.” Olivia babbled, her eyes clouding with tears, as she grabbed her mother's hands.Lily, smiled sadly, suppressing the tears that were about to escape her eyes. She patted Olivia's arms, giving her a reassuring look.Just then, the doctor walked in. With a smile etched on his face, he shook Olivia's hands and nodded gently at Lily.“I'm glad you're okay, hope you weren't…”“Ohh thank you doctor, I'm very fine.” Olivia chipped in, quickly interrupting what the doctor was about to say. She knew what he was going to say, and it was something she didn't want to talk about, especially not in front of her mother.The doctor seemed to understand and nodded his head, not bringing back the topic. His gaze darted towards Lily, who was laying on the bed, and he smiled, reassuringly.“Let's talk in my office.” The doctor

    Inside a spacious and Luxurious ward, Morgan could be seen, laying on a white king sized bed. His face was scrunched up, as if he was in pain.His thick lashes fluttered open, revealing a pair of red and tired eyes, his brows got deeper, as his gaze scanned the room. A sharp and heavy smell of antiseptic and medicines wafted into his nose, one that he hated, making him suddenly nauseous.He tried to get up, but realized that there were pipes connected to his body, he quickly yanked it off, grunting as the pain from his chest injury hit him hard.His face was draped with sweat, as he pulled off the quilt covering him and mde to get up. Just then, the door was pushed open, revealing Nicholas who walked in, behind him was Olivia.“What are you doing sir?” Nicholas frowned, rushing towards him, but he was shoved off by Morgan.“Sit still, your wounds are reopening and bleeding. Oh my God, what have you done?” Olivia sighed, her voice soft and tender, as she held Morgan from getting up.Mo

    Xenia glanced at Olivia, “Hey, come on let's go”“What about Morgan? That man wants him to come, who knows what he'll do to him.” She freaked, remembering what the man told her earlier, about killing Morgan.For some reasons, Olivia couldn't move her foot, she couldn't leave when knowing Morgan was in there, it's not like she could or anything, her heart ached, it ached for him.“Please let's go, it won't be nice if we're caught here. It would be a distraction to Morgan and it would be your fault.” Xenia snapped, becoming impatient.They were about to leave, when Xenia heard a growl behind her, “You dare to trick us, by putting pills in the food?” He growled, lunging forward at Xenia.But she was fast, to kick his groin, earning a painful yearn. “Run!” Xenia ordered, fighting the men that kept coming at her.Olivia turned to run, but before she made it, her hair was grabbed and she was pulled back.She cursed, suddenly regretting why she grew her hair long.“Let her go!” Xenia growled
