Rushing into the hospital lobby, Olive searched for her mother’s nurse all over the place in a frantic mood.

Luckily, she spotted the nurse coming out of a ward and she quickly dashed towards her “Nurse Becca…” she called out to her in a hurry.

Nurse Becca sighted Olive and a smile graced her face “Hello, Olive.”

Olive didn’t waste any time as she inquired “How is my mom?? Is she receiving treatment now?”

Nurse Becca smiled widely “Do not worry. She is receiving care while the search in a broader region for a donor is ongoing.”

Olive let out a mouthful of air as she held her chest as if to calm it down.

The nurse beamed at Her before patting her shoulder “One Mr Smith paid for the bills. I hope your mother will be able to make it before a match is found.”

“Can I see her??” Olive asked immediately and she nodded “Sure. She’s in room 23 at the end of the left lane”

With that, the nurse walked away. Not wasting time, Olive started to find the room where her mother was receiving trea

    “What?” Olive pushed him away as she took a step back. “This is nothing interesting”Logan nodded “Thank goodness you know but refrain from touching me too much so that unexpected doesn’t happen” “Fine.” Olive conceded and Logan gestured for her to come forward.“It’s time” he whispered and she cleared her throat to fit in the role.Almost immediately, the door was pulled open from the inside, making Logan quickly wrap his hands around her waist.Olive smiled up at him as he indulged her “Welcome home love” he said aloud and she smiled warmly at him.“Oh. Welcome home Mr Logan and Miss…” the head maid, Mrs Jenkins trailed off and Olive quickly said.“Olive.

    Logan grinned "It's the head maid," he said to her before walking towards the door.Olive bit her lower lip, she had guessed wrong and almost flared up. She pouted her lips a little,slightly embarrassed by her earlier outburst.She sat on the couch docilely, waiting for him to come back. She was a little bit nervous about tomorrow.If all doesn't go well tomorrow and his father suspect them, the deal will be off and she won't be able to get help from Logan anymore.She would put in the effort to make sure everything goes well. Even if it means kissing him to convince them. She would do anything to keep this deal going till her mother is well again."So. I thought alcohol would make things even more better" He proudly announced as he made his way into the room after collecting the bottle of alcohol from Mrs Jenkins.Olive shook her head without saying anything, she already had a rough guess of what he planned to do."Let's seat here" Logan called out to her, he sat on the soft plush ha

    Waking up with a pounding headache, Logan growled in pain as he held his forehead that was banging. He dragged himself out of bed with a terrible hangover. At that time, Olive was already gone.He didn’t remember her sleeping on his bed the previous night and he was better off not knowing. He slipped his legs into his slippers, pulling himself in the direction of the bathroom. He went in and came out after a few minutes.His eyes were less drowsy because he went to wash his face and brush his teeth but that pounding headache remained. He spotted his phone on the couch and he went to get it, he sighed when he saw the forty missed calls from Ravenna and also three from Scott.The early morning sun brightened up the room and kissed Logan’s skin, he was only in black pants and he was shirtless.He sat on the edge of the bed, his back faced the window, and his hands swiped through his phone screen.It was 8 Am, birds chirping outside and the soft waves made the morning soothing and the c

    Olive's already dampened mood immediately dampened even more. Her face fell but in all, anger was evident on her face "I have forgotten my place?? I will never forget that I'm just a contract wife." She screeched.Logan glared at her "Then always turn your face elsewhere when you see me. Why did you take the time to prepare hangover soup for me if you don't have other motives?""Other motives?? I only made the soup because you told me that you will be..."He cut her words when she was trying to explain. "Whatever. Keep your excuses to yourself. Just don't interfere next time else it will lead me to think of you having an interior motive!" Olive balled her fist, too annoyed by everything going wrong that morning "Fine. From now on, no concerns from my part. It will be strictly business!" Logan hummed In agreement, satisfied that she easily grasped what he wanted to convey. Business strictly. That was what he wanted.He didn't want her meddling in his affairs, he didn't like for his p

    Walking out of the hospital, the cold air rushed towards Olive's face, drying up her stained face. She let out a mouthful of air as she clutched her bag tightly.Her heavy eyes scanned the road, watching the people move around their own business, and she couldn't help but sigh again.Her thoughts went haywire. Thinking if not for her uncle's involvement in her mother's life, her mother wouldn't have been in this position.

    Olive's face turned grim "I never knew all these benefits come along," she said in utter disbelief, her face twisted in surprise.Scott sighed as he began to analyze things for her "How did you think your mother's hospital bills were paid?? He instructed me to place you on the elite list and have you given access to his credit cards so any transactions you make will be removed from his credit card. And that's the exact reason you were able to walk through that gate without being stopped" Olive shook her head "How does it concern the mall?? Was my face plastered somewhere so everyone could recognize me or what?" "Not that. This mall belongs to the Smiths so maybe the workers here recognize you as Mrs Smith 'cause the news has spread amongst all the subsidiaries in the Smiths enterprise" He explained, making Olive sigh. "This is both good and bad" She whispered to herself, her eyes scanning the whole place. The mall is big and has different departmental stores, popular amongst the e

    Olive's face twisted as she listened to her uncle talk. Her hand that gripped the phone tightened. Mr Brown said from the other end. "That's the one thing your mother cherished before she died. Since we moved into this apartment, we wanted to get rid of old stuff so you should come over to grab your mother's heirloom before Maggie discards it.""I remember begging you for the heirloom before. Why do you want to relinquish it now??" Olive raised a brow. She was in her bedroom while her baby was with Lilian who came for a short visit. She left Lilian and Mrs Jenkins in the living room to answer the call. Logan had gone to the office with Scott early that morning. So, it was just Lilian, Mrs Jenkins and Olive at home with several other bodyguards that Logan brought over to the house a few days back. "True, I had wanted to keep it as mine but your husband won't let me and my family off the hook. He warned us to return everything in our possession to you which we have done except the he

    “Boss, I just got an intel that Ravenna is out of the country,” Scott reported to Logan. A frown settled on Logan’s face when he heard that. He had kept taps on Ravenna to know that she was stranded. He had taken back the apartment from her and she had to rent another downtown. It was a small studio room. Her ex-boyfriend was nowhere to be found since the day he approached him about his dealings with Ravenna. For anything, Logan was sure about Ravenna being broke. How come she was able to fly out of the country??“I think it is a good thing. At least, I won’t have to worry about her doing something to my family.” Logan said nevertheless. “But tighten the security around my house should in case she comes out of the blue to do something stupid as always.” “Yes, Boss,” Scott responded before the call ended. Logan tapped on the window panel of his home office as he stared out of the window, his eyes were on Olive.She was wearing a blue summer dress, sitting on the swing in the gard

    "Congratulations, such a beautiful baby.." Mrs Smith giggled. Lilian was behind her as they all smiled down at the baby. London was arranging some flowers on the desk while Logan was outside with his father. Olive smiled weakly as she lay on the bed, discussing with the ladies. Outside, Logan sighed as he tucked both hands into his pants pocket, he said. "Dad, I hope your notion of trying to get me to marry Amelia is over now that I am a father." Mr Smith's hand was on the railings as they both stood there, watching the city. It was evening already. Mr Smith shook his head. His silence made Logan speak up again. "Dad...""Yes. Fine, you're a father of a daughter, I won't do anything. I'll tell Amelia to give up on the chase." He stated dryly. His eyes were wandering around. Logan raised a brow at his father. "That was so fast. Are you planning something?? Spill it."Mr Smith gave him a sided look before looking ahead again. "What do you mean?? I'm serious right now." "You don't

    The next few days went by in a blur. The Andersons tried to reach out to Olive to help. Their living conditions have deteriorated to the worst. Mr Brown Anderson suffered from heart failure until he got a stroke. He was confined in a wheelchair. Adeline, too ridiculed by the public, tried to abort the baby which led to her bleeding profusely, and eventually lost the baby and her womb along with it.Olive was shaken by the news. Even though she hated the Andersons family, she felt bad for Adeline. Meanwhile, the feud between Mr Smith and Logan stretched on. Mr Smith was hellbent on making sure Logan agreed to marry Amelia. At one time, he tried to blackmail Olive to leave his son.He had said. "Do you know you'll receive so many benefits if you agree to leave Logan?? But if you don't, I'll hunt you down and make sure Logan doesn't locate the spot I bury you!" His chilly words sent shivers down Olive's spine. She felt fear.

    - Please Read The Author’s Note at the end of the chapter. - As Olive sat close to Logan the whole time since the beginning of the meeting, She could feel those burning gazes on her forehead, and a hole threatened to develop there. In the unfamiliar conference hall, Olive hasn’t stepped foot in since her mother was ruined by her uncle and replaced by him, Olive was a little unsettled. Maybe it was the nerves of what she was finally getting rid of or because of the stares of the several shareholders who were surprised to see her, the reporters who wouldn’t stop clicking their cameras, and the Andersons whose gazes held hostility, helplessness, and sadness. Guilty? Not. One. Bit. Logan as promised was supportive throughout the whole process. He didn’t butt in, he allowed her to handle the work of belittling her uncle while he sat there as her shield. Olive was given the satisfaction of seeing Mr Brown Anderson lose control for once. She was honored by the opportunity to

    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

    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

    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
