Morgan rushed down to the hospital when he got a call from the doctor about Olivia's Mom's death. He knew her health and emotions had been a mess lately, and she wouldn't bear to take in the news of the loss. She could lose the baby if she were to go through the whole pain and ache of losing her mom alone. Morgan's heart panged with pain, as he watched her cry miserably, he tried all ways he knew to make her stop crying but they were void, he even had to google tips on how to stop a crying lady, but they ended up useless.His heart didn't only ache for her, but for the love that existed between the mother and daughter. He didn't get to experience what having a mother was like, but he knew it would hurt so bad to lose her to death.Morgan was still stroking her hair, when she pulled his hands away and hot up, her eyes and face were now red, puffy and tear stained.“Where are you going?” Morgan asked, narrowing his eyes at her.“The doctor has yet to tell me what happened to my mom, s
“How is she doing?” “I can't say she's fine, she's barely holding it in, I mean, she’s slowly losing it. The more she wants to fight the pain, the weaker she gets. She might lose the child if this doesn't go well. It's almost her second month of pregnancy.” The doctor said, staring at Morgan like he was the only hope.Morgan seemed to understand what the doctor was trying to tell him, after he seemed to think for a while, he nodded. “Once she's up, I'll take her home.” Morgan said, turning to look at the bed, where Olivia laid.“I'd get some medicines ready before then.”Morgan nodded.He is yet to tell Olivia about the findings of her mom's death, but her state of health, he wasn't ready to risk it, especially not when she's pregnant with his child.He already called Fredrick, to come down to Manilla, so he would be the one taking care of Olivia's health, he can't keep bringing her to the hospital all the time, besides Fredrick was more enhanced with medicines.It wasn't long befor
In a large and quiet cemetery, surrounded with so many graves, Olivia sat in front of her mom's grave, her eyes red and puffy.She stood there, for what seemed like an hour, after which she dropped a bouquet of flowers and managed to drag her foot and turned around, even though they were trying to fight against her.Morgan stood not so far away, watching her petite and fragile body walking towards him, while trying to hold in all the pain and ache she felt deep down.His heart tugged, with emotions he couldn't hold on to, or point out, his jaw tightened as he clenched his fists and watched her walk up to him.Just when he had thought that Olivia was going to hug him and sob in his arms, she walked past him, anf helped herself into the car.When they were back to the mansion, instead of Olivia heading to her room, she sat on the couch in the living room, and turned her gaze towards Morgan, who frowned.“What? What's with the look?”“You know, this is the only thing that's keeping me he
Morgan was in his study room, his gaze and attention focused on his laptop. He hadn't gone to the office for some days, as he was occupied by Olivia's issues and left the work for Nicholas.Xavier had been surprisingly calm since he got out of the cell, but Morgan wasn't one to buy such a trick. He knew Xavier would never change so whatever he was planning or brewing, Morgan knew it wouldn't take a long time to come to light.He was punching his keyboard, when he heard a slight noise from outside the room. He pretended not to hear it and continued but the noise increased, like a footstep, it was either going or coming.Morgan pushed his laptop aside and got up from the chair, he slowly opened the door, as his gaze followed the direction of the footstep. He frowned, when he saw Olivia's petite figure, moving further into the kitchen.He followed her, but stopped before he could enter the kitchen. Rather, he drew out a chair for himself in the dining room and sat down.Olivia, who was u
Morgan was dressed and ready to go to the office, just as he walked out of his room, he saw Olivia dressed formally, as if she were going somewhere. He frowned, his gaze washing over all, “Where are you going?”Olivia was startled, as she didn't expect to see Morgan, she turned to look at him.Damn! His face seems to be getting more manly and handsome each passing day.“Good morning, uhmm…..I'm going to school.” she said, looking everywhere but his face.“You're sure? Cos, if you pass out, you won't be able to stop them from coming to pick you, thereby exposing your little secret.”Olivia shot him a glance, her gaze keen on his face, as if thinking of something. After a moment, she chuckled, “I'm fine, thanks to you for always reminding me to take the tonic.”“And that reminds me, you've taken it?”“Yeah, it was mixed in the tea I had for breakfast.”Morgan nodded, “Let's go then, I'll drop you off.”“What?, No way! I'd rather grab a cab!” She waved him off, as fast as she could.“Ca
Sofia had something important to do, so she left immediately after the class was over. Olivia, went all by herself to the library to read, she was on her way, when she saw Ava come out from one of the empty classrooms.“Hey, miss mistress.” she said, blocking Olivia's way.Olivia frowned, her anger suddenly rising. She shot Ava a glare, “What do you want?”Ava sneered, her hatred for Olivia written all over her face. “What do you want? As if you can offer me anything, that is yours and not from your sugar daddy.”Olivia smiled, she wasn't in the mood for Ava's drama, as everything happening in her life was enough to give her stress.“Can you move away, I have no time for your silly drama right now.” Olivia, brushed past and made to leave, when Ava's next words made her freeze.“Quack me, and be arrogant as much as you want, we both know you're the loser. I have both parents alive, what about you? Tsk” she sneered, twitching her lips, as her gaze was intently fixed on Olivia. She could
Everyone of the students had their gaze fixed on Olivia, as they wanted and waited for her to answer the call.Olivia raised her face to acknowledge the stares directed at her, she quickly slipped the phone into her bag, and went towards the direction the teacher went earlier.“I so much hate how she acts all arrogant and confident.” A girl whispered to her friend.“Tsk, her beauty is such a waste. She should count her stars, that it wasn't me who she fought with, I'll make sure to scratch and distort that face of hers.” “I'm sure, she's getting a suspension or expelled. Redcrest doesn't play with their reputation, especially a clean proof like this.”“Lucy must be gloating, wherever she is right now.” They kept on whispering and gossiping, until Olivia could no longer hear them. She was yet to get into the principal's office, when her phone started vibrating.She took it out and glanced at the screen to see it was Morgan, she looked around her, and when she didn't see anyone, she t
As instructed by Nicholas, Olivia brought her face down, as she walked behind Nicholas. It wasn't long before they reached outside the school, heading to where the car was parked. Olivia could see the press, hovering around the school gate.They couldn't get in, as it was against the school's policy. Olivia, who had her head brought down, could see their feet stomping towards them, their voices chattering, as all of them were saying something. More like throwing questions at Nicholas.“Sir, don't you work for Mr Gilbert? What are you doing in Redcrest High college today?”“Sir, did you watch the video of a student who brutally bullied another student? What's your take on it?”Nicholas ignored their question, as he quickened his pace, to make sure Olivia was inside the car. His plan was successful, before the press could get to the car, Olivia was already inside the car.Morgan's men, who came along with Nicholas, made it easier for him to get into the car, as they were holding back th
THE BILLIONAIRE'S DEEPEST DESIRE 1Amelia's heart hammered against her chest, each beat thumping loud, as if it was going to jump out of her chest. Her footsteps slowed as she approached Liam's room, a sudden, inexplicable feeling of horror cursing through her body. The closer she got, the more the chaotic mess of clothes on the floor caught her eye, feminine clothes, lingeries, heels, purse, thrown carelessly, all of them leading her to one door— Liam's room.Her breath hitched, as she stopped in her tracks, her mind racing wildly. No. This can't be happening.Liam had been working late for days, as there was much work in the company, and he drowned himself in his business. He shouldn't be home yet, he was supposed to be in the office right now, she thought. She had planned this evening so carefully, wanting it to be perfect for him, for them, after all it was both their anniversary and his birthday. She had wanted to surprise him with a special night, to show him how much she cared,
Epilogue“Do you, Morgan Gilbert, take Olivia Winters as your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, for better or for worse, to love and cherish, till death do you apart?” The priest's voice echoed in the large hall.Morgan's eyes shimmered with love as they gazed into Olivia's eyes, who's face was flushed and her lips marred with the most loving smile.“Yes, I do.” He stated, still holding her gaze.******The city was all smiles, as their heartthrob, Morgan had finally settled with his beautiful bride. Their luxurious wedding was the talk of the town.All their rivals and enemies had gotten their own share of Karma.For Xavier;Cherry had one time overheard Morgan and Olivia talking about what Xavier did, even when he killed her mom. Her hatred grew intense.She sneaked out a phone and texted Xavier, complaining that she doesn't want to stay with Morgan anymore, that she wanted to come to him. Xavier fell for words and told her where she would come so he could come pick her up.
It was past five days already, Morgan hadn't left Olivia ward even for a second, his gaze was fixed on her figure as he watched her day and night trying to recuperate.Cherry was brought and taken back by Nicholas, who buys everything that's needed for Morgan. At some point the doctor begged him to leave, to get some rest, that he'll be informed once there was any improvement. He paid no heed to their words and remained there.He already lost his father, his child, but not her. The doctor had already done their part, they were now waiting for her to wake up, which seems to be taking longer than Morgan had expected.On the fourth night of her being in coma, Morgan went to kneel beside her bed, he grabbed her hands, staring into her face, at that point he knew he had fallen for her. Contract or not, he wasn't going to let her go, not even after bringing out a side of him that he's been hiding in a shell all these years.“Do you really not want to wake up? you enjoy scaring me don't you?
Olivia was finally losing it, she couldn't hope on anyone to come to her aid, Morgan was said to be involved in a car explosion and was dead. Deep down, she hoped it was a lie, it was all in her dream, but the reality was so hard on her, as the coldness of the room hit her system.Maybe she really was meant to be left alone by everyone who cared about her and to die miserably. Tears left her eyes, as she clutched her stomach, “I'm sorry baby, mommy couldn't bring you into the world, mom has failed you.” She sobbed, her heart breaking into several pieces, as her head was lowered to look at her big bump.“If there will be a next world for mommy, I promise to compensate you. I love you, my child, my baby.” Her sobbing was slowly fading, as she coiled on the extremely cold floor, hugging her stomach tightly. She was slowly losing her consciousness, as her shivering body began trembling violently. ******“Sir, I can't get to her, she's not taking the calls.” Nicholas reported worriedly.
Ava and her mom didn't leave Manila, Lorenzo happened to have an apartment in the city, so they stayed with him, waiting for Ava's scandal to calm down.“Mom! Mom! Mom! Come have a look!” Ava ran to her mother's room, as her face was filled with excitement. “What's that dear?”Ava brought her phone to her mother, “The news says Mr Morgan is dead. He died from a car explosion, maybe someone planted a bomb into his car.”“Oh my, isn't he Olivia's sugar daddy?”“That's exactly my point! Don't you think luck has been on our side? this is our chance to ruin her forever then we'll leave Manilla.”Hilda smiled, “I already have a plan for her.” She pulled Ava close and whispered into her ear.“Wow! Mom, that was fast! Let's see how she'll unite with her dad and live a decent life.” She sneered.******Olivia glanced at the phone's screen, the caller was from an unknown number, so she swiped to answer the call.“Hello Olivia Winters,”Olivia frowned, the voice extremely familiar. Even in her
Xavier and Cecilia left Manila, when they got the news about old Gilbert's death. Before then Cecilia's already sold one of his houses, as she only had the documents to it.Morgan was in his office when Nicholas knocked on the door, he hummed, signaling him to come in. Nicholas walked towards Morgan and whispered into his ear, and Morgan frowned.“Let her in.” His cold voice demanded.Nicholas nodded, and left. Not long after he left he returned with a woman, who seemed to be in her middle age, her eyes were red and her face marred with guilt and remorse.Morgan paused, his gaze quickly darting to her as he coldly seized her up. The woman lowered her head, not daring to meet his piercing gaze, as they sent chills to her. The atmosphere in the office was tense and thick, even Nicholas didn't dare to breathe.“What do you want?” he suddenly asked, breaking the silence.The woman suddenly broke into tears, as she fell to her knees. Morgan's frown got deeper, “Do you think I have all the
“Larry, I know he's lying right?” Hilda quickly asked.Larry looked up at her, “What if he's saying the truth? What are you going to do?”“Leave you of course.” Lorenzo's voice teased.“That doesn't matter Larry, answer the damn question!” Hilda panicked and an impatient voice sounded, as she reached out to grab his phone.“Oh my God, no way!” Hilda's eyes were in shock, as she stared at Larry's phone, obviously his bank balance.“When were you going to tell us? How did that even happen?” Her previous apologetic voice completely vanished, replaced with a sharp and angry voice.“Don't change the topic, who's Ava's father? Am I really the father of the child you're carrying?”Hilda paused and scanned him. Larry has become poor, there's nothing she wants with him again, she can't bear to suffer with Ava and her unborn child, besides the child wasn't his own to start with. She decided to come clean instead of beating around the bush.“Look Larry, I'm really sorry that you have to find thi
Olivia woke up very early in the morning, she had issues sleeping properly at night, her child wasn't making it any easier, as the kicks were getting stronger, plus she missed Morgan's presence, even though she wouldn't admit it.She reached for her phone, about to dial his number when a video caption caught her attention. She tapped on the video, her eyes widened in shock, as surprise yet excitement was smeared on her face.She quickly checked the comment section, indeed internet users are unpredictable, she giggled while reading the comments.Who could have uploaded the video? How was someone even able to retrieve the complete video?Olivia was very happy about the video she just watched, at least everyone will get to see who Ava really is, and her name can finally be cleared.Meanwhile, Ava, who had recently been released from the cell, was at home with her, discussing her next plan on dealing with Olivia. They were still into the conversation when her phone rang, she saw it was fr
After Morgan ended the call with Olivia, he smiled lightly and rested his head on the chair he sat on.The sky was getting darker, yet no one came to him, he sat there, his gaze darting to the house, the lights were still on, a coil smile formed on his lips and he retracted his gaze.Meanwhile inside the house, Mr Kim, asked one of his guards to check if Morgan was still sitting there. The man came back and nodded, reporting that he was still seated there. Mr Kim frowned and got up to see for himself, he looked through his window for a while and returned to his seat Earlier when his guards informed him that someone was looking for him, he purposely spent a lot of time coming out just to taste his patience, but it seems standing and waiting for long didn't bother him. And when he told him to leave even after hearing his request, he thought he was going to really leave, then again he was disappointed that he went to sit under the oak tree and was waiting for him, and now it had gotten
