After Olive left, Logan took his phone and sent Revenna a text. Logan—{Hey Babe. I'm sorry but I won't be able to come over tonight as I promised. Something happened}Just as his text was sent, his phone started to vibrate. He sighed when he saw that Ravenna was the caller. He didn't need to be told that she had seen the text but wanted to cry over it again.He really couldn't pick up the call because he was at his parent's house and the doors are not soundproofed like his. He declined the call but she was persistent as she kept calling. He almost wanted to switch off the phone.The third call came in and he was about to answer the phone call in annoyance when the bathroom door clicked open. The sound was a bit creaky and it made him look up from his phone.Olive just came out of the bathroom. His eyes scanned her face, it seemed she had washed her face but her face were swollen...especially her eyes.He dropped the phone on the bed and it made a ding sound, indicating an incoming t
When Olive woke up the next morning, she woke up to an empty bed with just herself.Logan was gone. She stretched out her arms but her nose was clogged. Probably due to snot. She gazed around the room before a sigh escaped her lips. The early morning sun brightened up the room,giving it a warm feeling.Olive grumbled while getting off the bed, her hair was all messy and her face was covered in drool and dried tears. When she came face to face with the mirror in Logan’s bathroom, she almost screamed out her lungs. She was looking like a mad woman with that disheveled hair and stained face.She drooled the previous night and it was just so clear on her face. Without wasting time, she turned on the water faucet. She placed her hand under to fetch some water and she quickly washed her face clean. She sighed again as she stared at herself in the mirror.Olive looked like shit. She didn’t realize when she fell asleep last night and it seems she had a great sleep due to how relieved she wa
Olive was like an angry bird all through the day. She was pissed as she got dressed and bid his family Goodbye. She kept pouting while he drove the car back to their house.Logan didn't say a word to her and just left her to herself because he was equally annoyed that she was openly flirting with London.Olive pressed her body to the door while looking out of the window, her arms were crossed around her chest.The silence in the car lingered for a while before Olive said with a thick angry voice "Drop me off at the station there. I need to head somewhere!" He removed his attention from the road to look at her, he didn't ask her where she was going, it wasn't his business anyway.Nobody said a word after that, Logan continued driving and soon, he parked his car a little distance from where the bus station was. Olive hurriedly tried to open the door but he quickly held her arm, making her snap her head towards his direction with a glaring look."Come home early though, I don't care whe
Logan grunted as his call was directed to a voicemail for the sixth time. He has been trying to get a hold of Olive for the past few minutes but his call was directed to voicemail. He had told her to return early and now, it was almost 8 Pm, he thought she’d come back by 6 pm so he decided to do things slowly while waiting for her.7 pm successfully rolled by and he had taken his shower, starting to dress up but she was not yet back from wherever she went to.She didn’t even say where she was going to, not like he wanted to know but he just wanted her to come back home already.‘Is she okay?’ That thought came to his head, remembering how solemn she looked before they parted ways earlier. And then, images of how her face looked swollen the previous night. He then remembered that his informant told him about the Anderson family’s involvement in Olive’s Mother's treatment.“She probably went to the hospital to visit her mother” he whispered to himself. Thinking that was why she had sa
A big smile flashed on Ravenna's face when she saw Logan. The clicking of her heels on the cemented floor made a dull echo as she walked towards them with a broad smile on her face."Hey, Babe" She grinned widely at him before tucking his sleeve.Logan sighed before glaring at Scott. He turned to look at her with a forced smile "Hey, Love. Come with me" Ravenna giggled as she followed Logan out of the place. They moved towards the dark corner of the house, leaving Scott alone.Scott sighed before matching towards the living room where the party was hosted.Logan took Ravenna to the back entrance but not into the VIP room Scott had told him about earlier. Logan turned towards various corners in the lobby, grateful that Scott didn't allow anyone into this side of the house. He guided her into Scott's guest room.Ravenna had a smirk on her face as she entered the room before Logan. He shut the door after them.Once in the confines of the room, away from the loud music and deafening cha
Irritation was evident on Logan's face when he saw how deviant Ravenna was. He scowled "Get out of my way!" He didn't know where this anger came from and why but he knew he hated all she said to his face. "Else...we’re over!" Hearing his last statement, Ravenna blinked twice, as if she was poured cold water, she started to stammer while complaining " You are-you are going to break up with me cause-cause of that bitch??" Surprise flashed across her face like a million times as she tried to make sense of his earlier words.Logan shook his head, he knew he didn't say that because of Olive but something else which he wasn't going to start explaining to her now "Just, Get out of my sight," he gritted out, his anger was still so bad.Ravenna broke down as she shifted away from the door, her usual tearing section was about to begin but Logan was hella impatient. He didn't even look at her face as he pulled the door open and dashed off as if someone dangerous was after his head.Seeing how h
Logan widened his eyes in shock but he couldn't even find the strength to pull her away from him. She was all emotional and fragile, he just allowed her to do the kissing which he soon started to reciprocate after a while. He kissed her so tenderly, his palm massaged her hair as if to soothe her nerves.Olive was kissing him but her tears kept rolling and her eyes turned drowsy, her red eyes took weak to stay awake.Logan felt the slow response and when he detached their lips, he found the woman sleeping soundly under him.Even in her sleep, her face still held a frown and he chuckled lightly before smoothing the lines between her brows. He looked at her again and a sigh escaped his lips. He couldn't imagine himself in her position for a day. He would go insane if he was to lose his mother, this was one of the reasons he planned to go easy on her for a while.He gently stroked her hair and tucked her to sleep before covering her up with the duvet. He turned off the lamp close to th
Logan seized her up with discerning eyes, but she remained deviant. He quickly reminded her "You are still grieving over your mother's death, holding a wedding at this time is.."She impatiently cut him off, her eyes remained calm as she gritted out "I want the wedding. She is gone now.." she swallowed hard when she noticed her voice beginning to break. Her fingers gripped her pajama tightly to press down her sob. She continued but her voice kept trembling "I want this." Logan sighed, she looked very pitiful but trying to be strong. He returned his focus to the call "Fine. We will start preparations immediately" with that, he ended the call abruptly before shoving the phone into his pants pocket.He closed the space between them, his eyes softened as he held Olive's hands. His eyes darted between hers while consoling her "You do not need to pressure yourself at this time. About the Andersons, I have everything under control. Just sit and watch how I break them"Olive shook her head
Olive was oblivious to the person staring mindlessly at her. She slowly got up from the jacuzzi, her wet hair was stuck on her face and back. The blue light illuminated her body as the water dripped from her hair to her feet, giving her a wet sexual image.Olive looked like a seductress Queen as she made to go take her phone from the Table she placed it on.Getting off the water, she started to push her hair off her chest to her back. She let out a sigh before raising her head only to be startled by the figure looming over the door.She quickly took a sharp before taking a step back as her hands snaked around her body to cover up her exposed body from Logan.Logan had seen her get out of the Jacuzzi but honestly, he didn't want to leave there, he just wanna keep looking even though he knew that if she caught him staring, that would be embarrassing.Olive stammered "What are you doing behind the door, Gawking??" Logan cleared his throat, for the first time in his life he was at a los
Logan slowly pushed the door open as he carried the drunk bride into the condo. Olive remained silent in his arms. This time around, she was a little wide awake due to the kiss from earlier.Logan shut the door behind him, shutting the loud music as silence reigned in the room, the faintly lit condo was beautifully designed. A large king-size bed was close to the wall, a heart shape was formed with rose petals on top of the bed. The room was faintly lit by dull lights and red candles. “You awake?” He called out softly as he moved towards the bed. Olive hummed in response.He slowly placed her on the bed and she sat on it, her eyes remained glued on his body.He placed a hand on his waist while stating “I have signed the contract with the Andersons, I think they should be gone by now!” He said calmly and Olive just nodded her head a little. Logan wasn’t satisfied with her response so he asked “What are you thinking about?” Olive sighed “Ravenna came, she confronted me earlier when y
Olive exclaimed softly "Ravenna?? What are you..." she quickly glanced around them. Everyone was busy laughing and engaging in conversations. Thankfully, Mr And Smith had already left for their house, But Lilian and London were still on the cruise. What if they came at the moment and saw Ravenna?? Logan will be in hot soup for sure!Olive whispered in annoyance "Why did you come here? Aren't you aware that your presence here can cause Logan some mishap with his dad?" Ravenna snarled as she retorted in a low tone "You are the one whose presence can ruin things for my man! You got married to him finally, are you happy?? Well, I just came to remind you of your place. This whole wedding.." she stretched her last word a little before she added "This whole grand wedding should have a bride like me and not you! You are temporary and..."Olive rolled her eyes before cutting her off "Old story. You don't need to remind me of that. So shut up and leave!" Ravenna's face flushed red in anger
The after-party was held on a cruise, it was very lively on the cruise as the spectators wined and dined.The loud music and bright light complimented each other. A few people were moving about, chattering and laughter rolled out in the wide space on the cruise.Some people were found around the railings of the cruise, they all held glasses of wine and cocktails.It was a high-end event, some businessmen and women used the opportunity to mingle with others and gain connections.The Andersons couple was a little isolated and they did not mind. They just waited for Logan to sign the contract with them first, they would gain the recognition they deserved.This thought placed them in a good mood as they sat in a corner, eating from the plate of sliced pork. Maggie didn't hold back as she munched on the food and downed it with the white wine available on the table.Mr Brown was busy tailing Logan with his eyes from where he sat. He watched Logan and Olive laughed with Logan's parents. Soo
The next few days rolled by in a hurry, A lot of preparations took place as everyone was preparing for the wedding.Even though Olive and Logan wanted something simple, his mother overdid everything with the help of Lilian.Lilian made everything perfect, Logan was too busy with the arrangements that he had to postpone the date he asked Mr Brown to come sign the contract with his subsidiary company.Scott was his right-hand man and his best man. Lilian served as the chief bridesmaid for Olive.On the wedding day, Olive remained seated in front of the mirror as she stared at herself in the mirror. Her face was blank. No ounce of smile was on her face, she just kept staring at her reflection in the mirror. She was in her white flawless gown that was made of expensive fabrics.She was all dolled up by the makeup artist that Logan had hired. Her hair was curled to the side. She should be mesmerized by her beauty like everyone else did, but she wasn’t.The makeup artists and the bridesmai
Scott remained silent for a while, he was just staring blankly at the lady who was looking back at him with those innocent eyes.When he couldn't contain his excitement anymore, he burst into laughter, making Olive sigh.Logan didn't say a word as he just kept looking at Olive calmly. Olive pouted her lips a little, a blank look still on her face."What do you want to say to me?" Olive questioned after a while and Logan just shrugged."Stealing the files won't be that difficult.." Logan started but Olive quickly butted in."It's not stealing. It's taking back what is ours." She corrected him and that made Logan inclined his head to the side.Before he could respond, Scott nudged his shoulder "Don't worry about that. Let's just go ahead already. That family disgusts me!" He said in hate.Logan just shook his head before making his way to the driver's seat. Scott stepped away from the car. Olive quickly fastened her seatbelt, before waiting for Logan to start the car.Logan ignited the
“So….” Mr Brown’s voice broke their eye contact,disrupting their silent moment. His eyes were expectant as he waited for Logan to say something about the contract he requested.Logan sighed calmly, he couldn’t believe Olive was putting him through this. His eyes roamed around the people there.Scott shook his head slightly, he was afraid of Mr Brown ruining things and besides, working with them would only boost their reputation and income. He doesn’t want anything good to come to the Andersons from Logan.The silence stretched on for a while, everyone else waited for Logan to speak but he just kept staring daggers at Mr Brown, scanning him to see if he was worth the stress.The silence was like a loud echo in their ears, the silence hung in the hall as no one said a word. Maggie rubbed her palms together due to the sweat that was starting to form there. This was their only way out and if they didn’t get the contract, they would be doomed. The Andersons family will suffer major losses
“Brown Anderson..” Logan’s cold voice rang in the hall as he made his way in. His deep monotone voice caught the attention of the people waiting in the room.With Scott behind him, Logan made his way into the wide hall where the funeral rites were performed.Logan had told Mr Brown to wait behind after the funeral, so the Andersons were all waiting there.Mr Brown quickly stood up from the armless chair he had sat down in the hall along with his wife and children.“Mr Smith..” He acknowledged Logan the moment he spotted him, he forced out a wide smile.Maggie stood beside her husband, she didn’t forget to greet Logan too. Logan kept a straight face as he didn’t bother to respond to their greeting. “Mr Brown.. I have a score to settle with you” he uttered coldly. Mr Brown turned to look at his wife knowingly before turning to look at Logan again.“What could that be, Mr Logan Smith?” He asked, an underlying grin almost replaced his face.Logan straightened his back as he tucked both h
The day rolled by quickly and soon it was Roseline's funeral. Olive’s face was devoid of even a little smile. They got dressed in silence and didn't say a word to each other. Olive's head was preoccupied as she got into Logan's car. She was wearing a black body-fitted gown and a black bag. She tied her hair in a ponytail. Logan wore a black sleeve and pants, he would be her chauffeur for the day. In silence, they drove towards the funeral ground. Olive appreciates the silence as much as she didn't realize it. She just wanted to be left alone in her thoughts. Her mother's dismissal was messing with her sanity that she couldn't cry anymore. Getting close to the gate, Logan turned to look at Olive, for the first time that day, he spoke to her "We're here." Olive only hummed at him, her face was blank making Logan slightly worried. It would have been better if she cried so he would know what she was feeling inside. Honestly, he doesn't even know why he was concerning himself,
