Harrison refused to do what Olivia had told him, but it was clear that she was determined to leave him completely. He needed to talk to someone, to vent, and there was no choice but to Sophia, she was always unconditional."Harrison! How my life lights up when I hear your voice"Yes, I'm a damn ingrate, how are you?""Very well, better now that I hear you, to what do I owe this miracle?""I want us to go out for coffee, could you?""Oh, honey! I can't today, but I'll propose something better, see you at Club Las Vegas tomorrow, coffee? We need alcohol to run through our veins, I've had a wild week in business, I could use some drinks.Harrison smiled into a laugh, that part of Sophia was completely unknown to him."All right, I'll see you tomorrow Sophia!"The next day, Olivia was ready for Jonathan's invitation, although he wasn't the one she wanted to be his companion, he didn't mind the idea of having fun, the man arrived at her office too informal, wearing jeans almost tight to th
Olivia's head was spinning, there were many cocktails in one night, but somehow she had to bear to see how "The love of her life" was unfaithful to her again, she was convinced that Harrison should be faithful to her no matter any circumstance, including the fact that he was no longer with her."Oh! Olivia glanced sideways at everything and sat down on the big leather couch in Jonathan's living room"Thank you honey, you have her at your service. Do you want to have a drink?" Jonathan took off his jacket and went to a minibar"No, please, can you lend me your bathroom?" It's just..." Olivia's stomach churned.Jonathan ran up to her, and picked her up"Do you want to throw up?" Do you have any idea how much it costs to wash these rugs? Come, let's go to the bathroom.As best he could, he picked her up and took her to the bathroom on the first floor, but Olivia almost didn't reach the toilet and from her mouth, like an explosive wave, a large amount of vomit came out."Oops! She fell t
Olivia opened the door of her mansion, her mother was waiting for her in the living room, Elise glared at her angrily."Olivia! Daughter, I know you are an adult, but out of prudence you should have told me that you would not sleep at home, I was very worried about you, besides, I called your phone and it rings off, what a fright you gave me!"Mom, yes, you're right, forgive me, I went out for a few drinks with Jonathan and the time went by, my phone went off, I was going to come straight home, but he insisted that I stay in his" Olivia's voice was off."Daughter, are you okay?" Elise got up and slowly walked over to her daughter, no matter how independent Olivia was, her mother recognized her when she wasn't well."Yes," he replied in a choked voice"What happened to you, Olivia?" Tell me daughter, tell me what happened?!Olivia squeezed her brows and began to cry inconsolably, her mother had no choice but to hug her to her chest, while her daughter cried inconsolably, Olivia whimpe
Harrison's Point of ViewSeeing the image of Olivia taking Ernest's arm, wreaked havoc on me, it would be impossible to deny that it gives me a bad feeling, I wish I was the one who was in his place, but here I am, paying in the worst way the consequences for each of my bad acts.My phone started vibrating in my pocket, it was a message from Sophia."I'm starving, shall we go out for lunch?" That message was salvation to all the karmas of the day, type right away, a:"Yes, where do I pick you up?""I'll pick you up in front of your company in about twenty minutes, I don't like you coming to pick me up in Uber"I felt sorry for her words, but I knew Sophia's true intentions, she didn't write that to make me feel bad, it was just a fun way to take my misfortunes.I waited for her at the entrance of the McGregor Industries building, I turned to detail it carefully, something I had never done before, and it was a huge place, luxuries everywhere and eccentricities, my question after Olivia
"Harrison, you're very quiet. What's the matter with you?"Harrison lowered his head, he couldn't utter a word, or at least not to talk about the subject that was haunting his head. Sophia took his hand and caressed it gently."If you don't feel good telling me what's happening to you, that's fine, I'm not going to pressure you, but you don't have to be a fortune teller or a scientist to know that what really has you like this, has its own name and starts with I.Harrison sighed and swallowed whole to gather strength and respond."Yes, you've learned to know me Sophia, to be honest, I'm dying for Olivia, but I'm aware that in the position I'm in, I couldn't even fight for her, that woman is full of suitors and they're very good, to tell you the truth.Sophia let go of his hand and turned to look at him."Do you think you're less than everyone else?!" I mean, a woman could only look at you for what you have, not for who you are," Sophia said wryly"For a woman of Olivia's stature, yes,
Olivia didn't know how long she was crying, however, after she was able to vent all her frustration, she raised her head, looked in the mirror, and realized that all of her makeup was running down her face, marking the bags under her eyes with large dark spots.She arranged her hair and with a damp cloth began to organize her face, her nose was red and her pupils dilated, the sensation she was experiencing at that moment, she had already experienced before, just when she left the Martens mansion the first time, the day she argued with Emma.5 years ago Harrison left for the office without saying goodbye to Olivia, it had been a couple of nights in which the communication between the two was delayed, they had many things to say to each other as a couple, but neither of them felt ready.That morning, the mansion woke up more messy than usual, it was dry weather and dust was rubbing all the furniture, Olivia, resigned to the lack of collaboration from her husband's family, put her beaut
Harrison arrived at his apartment, on Sophia's side, everything was ready for his trip, he just needed to pick up what little he had left. When he crossed the threshold of the door, Emma, who was standing in front of the window drinking a glass of wine, turned as soon as she felt his presence and looked at him contemptuously."My son! Baby, what are you doing at home so early?"Mom, I'm coming to pick up my things because I've changed jobs, I just wanted to talk to you."So that woman got the better of you?" You couldn't win her love back and she did what she wanted with you. Emma took a sip from her glass"Mom, Olivia doesn't love me anymore, she doesn't feel anything for me, and I'm not going to force her, there's no point in staying in that company anymore, just getting my head out and being humiliated by her.Emma angrily threw the glass on the floor, it exploded immediately, thousands of pieces of fine crystals flew out and the liquid stained everything in its path."You're just
With an emptiness in his chest, Harrison settled into the new office that Sophia had assigned for him, the deep sadness of seeing Olivia living her life as if she no longer felt anything for him, was consuming him, because she was all he wanted, he knew that he made mistakes in the past but how hard that he was paying for them.Behind him, there were only a pile of folders with documents that he had to manage, if he managed to move forward with the branch that Sophia entrusted to him, he would possibly have his emporium again."You don't look very lively, Harrison!" Sophia moved a pen up and down as she looked at him"Well, for the job if I am and you have no idea how much I thank you, it is an excellent opportunity Sophia, to place your trust in me, fills me with a lot of courage to face everything."I'm so glad you think so Harrison, and yes, I trust you too much, but I'd like you to change that face, I feel like I brought you straight to hell and not a chance to improve your life.
Olivia was perplexed listening to Emma's words, such wonder could not be true, the woman who with so much pride and ego hurt her in the past, was in front of her in her house, with her eyes waterlogged and her heart in her mouth asking for forgiveness. However, the words didn't flow, Olivia fell completely silent. "Olivia, it's normal that you don't want to say anything to me, and I understand that because I was a very mean and cruel woman to you, and I know that you shouldn't forgive me, but I just want you to understand that I'm really sorry, that my heart hurts for having hurt you so much, I also did it to my son, and even though there are many wounds to heal, I will be here for everything you need. Emma's voice cracked, Olivia couldn't resist, there was no grudge in her anymore. "It's okay Emma, we're human beings and we make mistakes, but you can learn from those, I didn't behave very well with you either, I acted the same way and in reality, that's not right, sowing more hat
Harrison drove as fast as he could to the hospital, his hands were sweaty, sliding across the steering wheel, his nerves running high to the maximum speed allowed. When she arrived at the hospital, just at that moment an ambulance arrived, she was surrounded by several police cars, at that moment she understood that those who were going to get out of there were her children, she ran away without even closing the door of her car. The only thing that mattered to him was to see them alive. He went straight to the parking lot, one of the cars that was escorting the ambulance was Joshua's car, who, with all his efforts, helped them find his children, however, when Joshua saw Harrison, he ran after him. "Son! Harrison! Joshua yelled, but Harrison didn't even bother to turn around, his gaze fixed on the moment when they were about to get his little ones out of the ambulance. His heart was racing and nervous, it was a terrible mixture of emotions, happiness, sadness, anguish, but most of al
Harrison got into his car, and lowered his head against the steering wheel, let out a couple of tears, and started quickly, he was so shocked that driving was almost impossible, because a lot of thoughts settled in his head and each one of them, more negative than the last, so much so that it made him feel like he was fainting.His hands were shaking, and he couldn't help but look at his phone every thirty seconds, he wasn't even focused on where he was going to look, he just sped down the hospital avenue, straight away, assuming he could find something there.Meanwhile, the police had almost identified the ambulance in which Joanne left with the babies, she, along with the two nurses were attending to the children, she was distraught, desperate, her face only showed panic."Miss, we need to get to the cabin quickly, the supplies we have here are not enough to take care of the children, and we are worried," One of the nurses looked at her with anguish, but at that precise moment, the
Harrison clutched his head in both hands and began to scream desperately, his eyes filled with tears, and he felt the same sensation as when he lost his little daughter in the womb, even, what he was experiencing at that moment was even stronger, he felt that his world was falling at his feet, and he didn't even know how to solve it.Joshua came up behind him and grabbed him from behind."The police are already informed, Harrison, son, calm down, please I need you strong."Dad! Why does everything have to be this way? Tell me why? Harrison fell to his knees, his legs failed him, it was as if a dark feeling was taking hold of him, and it was no wonder, his children were in the wrong hands and in the worst situation."Harrison, please get up, don't worry, trust the police, they already know and cordoned off the city, we're going to find them.""I need to go get them, I need to get them, Dad.Joshua bowed his head at the gravity of the situation, and especially at the helplessness they b
Elise and George arrived at the recovery room, Olivia had just woken up from the anesthesia, when she saw them, her eyes lit up and she immediately greeted them."Hello! And Harrison? He asked in a soft voice.Elise walked over and with all the love in the world kissed him on the forehead."He's solving a problem in reference to the twins," The woman, instead of reassuring her daughter, caused her to have a nervous breakdown."What?" Olivia straightened her head. "Is there something wrong with my kids?" A shiver ran down her spine.George rolled his eyes at his wife's words."Of course not, my love, he's just solving a few issues, nothing important, and tell us, how do you feel, honey?""Dad, I'm fine, I'm just in pain, but I guess it's normal, I want to see my children. She asked in anguish."Yes, daughter, and they are beautiful, although we saw them through the glass of the intensive care unit and we can't see them anymore for now," Elise continued talking."If Mom and Dad see that
Harrison didn't take his eyes off his little ones' incubators, he was thoughtful, confused, wondering who the woman was who posed as Olivia's sister."Mr. Martens, is there anything else I can help you with?" Or is everything okay? The nurse who came out of the operating room with them asked Harrison, jolting him out of his thoughts."Yes, nurse, I find it very strange that a woman should have come to ask about my wife, are you sure of what she told us?" Because if so, we need to know who he was and what his intentions are."Mr. Martens, you shouldn't lie, I'm not an unsuspecting person who overlooks those situations, besides the fact that this is a private clinic, the birth of your children was scheduled, we are aware of things, in fact, it seemed strange to me because she was not registered, but I assumed that when you told me that you were drinking coffee and that no one else came to ask about Mrs. McGregor, I assumed it was really a sister."This is very suspicious miss, I ask yo
"Honey, please, you should calm down a little, you're very nervous and so it's very difficult to get a cesarean section," Harrison took Olivia's hand, she was trembling, turning pale from nerves because of what she was about to experience."What if things don't go well?" What if something happens to one of our children? Harrison: Oh! I swear I wouldn't stand it. Olivia lowered her head and let out a tear.Harrison took her chin and lifted his head."Everything is going to be okay my love, because we have already suffered too much and these children who arrive today, come with the sole purpose of compensating for all the pain we have gone through my love, believe me."Oh, Harrison! You will say that I am a bird of ill omen, but the truth is, I have a bad feeling, it is as if something is about to happen, and I do not want anything bad to happen.Harrison hugged her to his chest and stroked her hair, knowing that he too had a kind of hunch, but refused to acknowledge it. He had to stay
Joanne, despite the harsh warnings that Jonathan gave her, went back to her city to look for her family, she felt that her heart was broken and that she could no longer cope with the severe pain that the anguish was causing her.When she arrived at the hospital, as tears streamed down her cheeks, at the entrance to her little boy's room, were the four people she was supposed to protect from the same hell she had put them in.His mother, father, little sister, and husband were all consumed by impending sadness, unfortunately for her, she was a few minutes late and couldn't say goodbye to her son.Her husband raised his head at the sight of her, and shook his head, that gesture was the sign that confirmed to Joanne that so much effort was in vain."Joanne! Her husband whispered when he saw her."My son?" She asked desolately. "It can't be, don't tell me that please.The man, he couldn't even utter half a word, barely shook his head, and let himself fall into tears. She went straight to
"I love that I can make love to you in different ways," Harrison hugged Olivia and kissed her on the forehead.Olivia stroked Harrison's cheek and sighed."As long as I'm alive, I'll always make love to you, I always want to be by your side Harrison, and be accommodating in every way.Harrison rose from his chest and looked at her tenderly."No honey, I'm the one who wants to please you in everything you want, you're my love, my wife and no one is going to change that."Thank you for so much love, well honey, my mom must be about to return, I asked her to buy me some things, I find it strange that the nurse is not here, I'm going to call her on her phone.""Of course, precious, don't worry, although since I'm here, I'll be your nurse, if you don't feel comfortable with her anymore, advance the payment of the months that are needed to finish the contract, give her compensation and let her go, I'll take care of you.Olivia began to move her phone's screen, looking for Camille's number.
