Olive sighed deeply as she stared out of the window, she had been in this position for more than three hours. Logan was not yet back from work and his phone was out of coverage. She wondered if he was okay. She tried to reach him again but this time, his phone was switched off. She gazed outside through the living room window to see if he came in on foot in case his car broke down. But there was no sign of him. He wasn't showing up.Another heavy sigh escaped her lips again, her feet growing sour from standing for a long time.Mrs Jenkins came into the room and said softly. "You're still waiting."Olive hummed without tearing her gaze from the window. "Okay then, I'm going to bed. Call me if you need anything. Good night, Olive." She smiled warmly and Olive smiled back at her."Have a good night rest, Mrs Jenkins." After saying that, Olive quickly turned to look out of the window again while Mrs Jenkins went to her room to sleep.Olive waited for a few more minutes and then, she st
The following day, Logan was standing in the toilet with a blank look on his face as he watched the toilet flush away his sperm.Relief?? Hell Yes!! Logan was more than relieved to finally get rid of this hanging problem. He washed his hands and smiled in satisfaction when it was finally flushed away. He exited the toilet and saw Olive staring at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a black dress that exposed her shoulders and a little of her cleavage. There was a slit at the back that revealed just a fair amount of her legs. The waistband held her waist firmly, accentuating her narrow thin waist and making her broad hips more pronounced. Logan felt like ripping those dresses off as his throat ran dry. His eyes zeroed on her ass that poked out from behind. He couldn't help but whisper in a husky tone. "You look prettier than the last time I saw you, Wifey." He said as he came near and wrapped his hands around her waist, pressing his hard member on her ass.Olive smiled. "The las
"I survived death barely hours ago and now you want to divorce me??" Olive's words echoed in the ward, her jaw dropped and her hands shook as she held onto the envelope. She stared at her husband in disbelief, tears welling up in her eyes. "How could you do this to me?" she asked, her voice quivering with anger and hurt."I'm done with you, Olive," her husband said, his cold voice devoid of emotion. "I've found someone better, someone who's rich and I'm not wasting another moment of my life with you."Olive's eyes widened in disbelief. "But... but we've been married for three years! You can't just throw away our relationship like it doesn't matter!"Her husband, Joshua Jones shrugged. "It doesn't matter to me."His voice dripped with unfamiliar hatred which caught Olive Anderson off guard. But Olive shook her head in denial, she didn't want to accept this reality.The sadness made her solemn, she could feel the emotions welling up inside her like a river threatening to overflow its
Olive felt as though the world had stopped, frozen in the moment of her husband's revelation. Her jaw dropped, her eyes wide with shock and horror. The tears that damped her cheeks felt like acid on her skin, burning and stinging. "What? No..." she whispered, the breath leaving her lungs in a rush."It's true," he said, his tone dismissive. "Adeline's carrying my child. She's the one I want to build a life with, not you."Olive's heart shattered, the pieces falling to the floor like shattered glass. "You..."Adeline only rolled her eyes in boredom while she pressed her head on Joshua's chest."I've made my decision, Olive," Joshua said, his voice hard and devoid of emotion. "There's no need to drag this out. Sign the divorce papers and get ready to attend our baby shower. Adeline and I are moving on, with our new baby, this baby will prove to everyone that the fault is from you and not me!"Olive's body felt numb as she listened to his cruel words. She felt like she was watching the
"Do I have other options?" Olive asked as she stared at Maggie with a dull expression, she didn't expect anything better from her anyway.Maggie shook her head in denial "None" Olive balled her fists close to her, she cast her head down as she took in the level of insult she was about to place on herself.She was beside herself, not knowing what to decide anymore but Maggie's nonchalant words swept to her ears."You do not need to keep yourself that much cause as we both know, you have been divorced by your husband, so you do not need to feel guilty or think you are betraying him." She said and Olive looked at her.'That's right' It seemed she forgot so soon that she no longer has a husband and the only person she has is her sick mother.And she couldn't afford to be alone in this unfamiliar world that has stabbed her multiple times,for this reason, she was ready to do anything to save the one person who was her mother.With a clenched Jaw, Olive Agreed "When do I do it?" A smile q
Olive's eyes were met with the blinding sun rays that penetrated the hotel room. Her eyes fell on her lower body and she made to shout in surprise when seeing the hickeys all over her thighs, belly, and her breasts. She was certain there were many of them on her neck but now wasn't the time for her to check. She turned around and Olive spotted the man who was sleeping on the bed close by. She was surprised because he was really good-looking and didn't look anything like how Luca had described the investor. He looked like a mini-Demi god even though he was sleeping! His face was so handsome even though it was still morning time. Olive didn't know why he looked so different from the description Luca gave her. She couldn't help but stare a little bit more. But then she remembered that her mother still needed to undergo surgery so she immediately grabbed her gown from the floor and her heels. She went to the bathroom and dressed up real quick. After that, she rushed to the table
Olive was not only bewildered but also dumbfounded. She quickly shook her head thinking they were trying to make a fool out of her."No aunt. I went into the room and slept with that stranger" Still holding her cheek, Olive confirmed but Luca only snorted."The investor called that he waited for you in the room but you never showed up! How could you be so dimwit to not do this right?" Luca scolded, she was only a year older than Olive and three years younger than Adeline.Olive quickly stood up from the floor, her cheeks had the prints of Maggie's fingers on her face "I went to that hotel, I walked into room number 099 as told and I—""Wait. Room 099??" Maggie bellowed and Olive nodded after a while.Maggie stamped her feet on the tiled floor "Can't you comprehend a thing?? The number written on that paper is 066, how could you turn the paper upside down??" Luca shook her head, amused by Olive's stupidity. Olive's face turned ghastly as the realization dawned on her. Her eyes grew i
“Mr Logan…” Maggie tried to intervene as she turned to look at Logan in bewilderment. Logan didn’t even spare her a glance, his jaw were clenched, his eyes still locked with Olive’s. Luca was in disarray as she cried to her father “Dad, what’s going on??” She tucked at her father’s sleeve and that thrusted him into the reality.He immediately stepped forward to explain “Mr Logan, you can’t go with Olive, she’s—““Why not?” Logan snarled at him, his question cutting him off. His blazing eyes scanned Maggie and Luca “I am not married to your daughter. I have choices and this union with your family is off”He returned his gaze at Olive “ Dear Olive, I am still waiting” Luca snapped her head at Olive, her glaring eyes penetrated Olive’s body.Olive didn’t know how to react, faced with Logan’s Waiting eyes, Luca’s glaring eyes, Maggie’s scrunched face, and Her uncle’s death-sending eyes.She didn’t know what to do at that point but to gulp loudly, her throat popping up and down.Logan s

Dropping the files on the desk, Scott smiled cheekily. "That's the project." Logan nodded while taking the file from The desk, he went through it and a satisfied look enveloped his face. "Great. Are the men out of the company now??" "Yes, sir. They have also disposed of their fake IDs and other things that could be used to trace them." Scott reported. "Double their pay for them and you will get a raise this month," Logan said before waving Scott off. "Thank you, Boss." Scott grinned before turning around to leave but he paused and spun to face Logan again. "Also, Mr Anderson has been buzzing my phone nonstop." "Let him panic some more until he comes to the Smith's group by himself to relinquish the position of CEO to me," Logan stated coldly. He had also informed Olive of the development and she was glad. She told him to make sure Brown Anderson was the one to surrender the company rights to him. "Noted, Boss." Scott left afterward. It's been a while since Logan last heard f
“You all are a bunch of jokers…” Mr Anderson snarled at the four men in black outfits. His veins were popped on his neck as he stared at the men, his glare almost digging a hole in their chests “Do you, incompetent fools have any idea of the mess your incompetency will cost the Anderson’s group??” He slammed the table and the men flinched a little, their heads down.Maggie and Adeline along with several other shareholders were sitting around the table, whispering as the conversation issued. Panic was written all over their faces. The conference room was filled with tension because of the weight of the problem they just found themselves. Pointing at the four men. “You all will rot in jail. Watch me..”. “Honey…” Maggie called out but Mr Brown Anderson snapped.“Hold it right there, woman.” Gesturing to the policemen standing close to the doorpost, he called out to them. “Take these thieves into your custody until they spill out the truth about where they kept the files!”The men star
{Babe, come over to my apartment later.}~Ravenna.Logan grumbled lowly before replying. {I’m busy all through today.}With that, he tucked the phone back into his pant pocket. Turning to face Scott who was standing close to his desk, Logan gestured for him to go ahead with what he was saying.“I have contacted the Andersons group that we won’t be partnering with them anymore. Gave them twenty-four hours to provide the documents containing the project.” Logan clicked his tongue. “And the compensation..??”Scott nodded. “Yes. I told them that they will be compensated when the project has been handed over.” A glee smile formed on Scott’s lips as he added. “And it can never be found.” Logan hummed. He paused for a while, thinking before he said aloud. “Remember the man Ravenna was with the other day??” “Yes, sir.” “Collect information about him. I need to speak with him.” Logan said, his eyes landing on the phone again. “Will do that soon,” Scott said softly and turned to walk away,
A throaty groan left Logan’s lips in the form of a complaint. He slid to the other side of the bed, and the desires temporarily died down.Olive looked up at him, they were lying side by side. Logan was staring at the ceiling while she gazed at his side profile.“He wants me to divorce you and get married to someone else,” Logan said. Olive’s face fell. “What?” Disbelief crossed her face as she pushed herself off the bed. Forgetting she was only wearing a bra and her pantie. Logan sighed deeply, his eyes moved to her face. “Yes. It’s so annoying that I left the study room in anger.” His brows were tightly joined.Olive fell short of words as she gazed at him deeply. She couldn’t find the right choice of words that could match her shock and utter disbelief.She never thought Mr Smith would dislike her this much to want Logan to divorce her. He was always happy whenever they were at his place. He was one of the people who wanted her and Logan to quickly host their wedding.On their we
The Ride back was awkward. Logan was eerily quiet as he stared out the window. Olive stole glances at him from time to time, she had been asking him what transpired between him and his father that got him so riled up but he was reluctant to say a word to her. Matthew drove the car in silence, the tension hung heavily in the car, and the only sound that could be heard was the soothing noise from the car's engine. Logan's face was unreadable as he stared out of the window. The conversation between him and his father kept replaying in his head and it angered him. He had always wanted to take over the Smith's group. That was the whole essence of this marriage with Olive. The Smith's group was his dream company. Now, it was finally close to his fingertip but it just required one thing for him to get it—Divorce Olive. Logan's eyes darkened even more, and his jaw tightened. He didn't want to think about how frustrated he was starting to get. He thought getting married was the only thing
“Dad…”Mr Smith pushed his chair backward before getting off, “Come with me,Logan.” Everyone else was confused, their excitement wavered because of how Mr Smith was frowning deeply and Logan’s pupils seemed to be dilating.Mr Smith walked out, heading to the stairs. Olive inclined her head to ask Logan. “What’s going on?”Logan swiftly bent and pecked her on the lips before saying. “I don’t know yet but I’ll go up there to find out.” He wiped off the crumb of cake on her cheek before adding. “I’ll be right back.” Lilian and Mrs Smith exchanged puzzled gazes as Logan left the dining area too, following behind their father. Logan prickly walked behind his father, his brows were slightly joined. His intuition was giving him a red light feeling as if something he wouldn’t appreciate was about to happen.Mr Smith pushed open the door of his study, his back was tensed as he entered the study with Logan trailing behind him.“Take a seat.” Mr Smith walked towards the cushion in the middle
“Can you stop being silly?? I don’t want you. Why in the world would you reveal that to the public??…” Logan snarled at Ravenna. Ravenna's face contorted, glaring in return. “You think I’ll just let you slip out of my fingers?? Just like that??” pointing to her still flat tummy, she accused. “What about the baby?? You don’t want to claim your responsibility over our baby??!!” Logan’s eyes landed on her flat belly and his face fell. He cursed in a low breath. “I didn’t say that.” He said, his tone softened a little bit. Ravenna raised her chin a little, knowing she just won the fight. “Good. So you’re stuck with me.” Logan’s face froze. “We are only bonded because of the child. We are nothing but co-parents. The earlier you accept that I have a family with Olive and nothing is going to ruin that,the better for you!” Pointing his forefinger while screeching, Logan snapped. “Let that sink into that empty brain of yours!” Ravenna only chuckled, her arms wrapped around her chest. “W
