Chapter 71

Olive~I opened my eyes to see the world still swaying overhead.My body ached, and I couldn't remember what happened to me."Oh, God! Olive, are you up?"Edward!His face was just like the man who used to bother me. I squeezed my eyelids and swallowed.What was going on?"How many days have I been unconscious?""Two days. I was scared. They hit your head."He held my hand but as soon as the numbness faded in my fingers, slowly, I snatched my hand from his.I scowled when the scattered memories went riot in my head and added a sharp pain to my skull. The headache wouldn't go away.His face held a mixed feeling of concern and relief.He was talking to me but I couldn't recognize the meaning easily. The whistle won the battle in my head.I was struggling to remember what occurred to me.That day in the coffee shop, a man came to me. Huxley rushed forward and made a distance between us. Two women were fighting and causing chaos. He took us to the parking lot, mentioning that my father wa

My father was furious when he came to pick me up from the police station but no longer did I care what he wanted.He warned me that next time he wouldn't save me if I got caught hurting Olive.This plan failed and Kit took us to the police station. He claimed that we were lucky his sister-in-law begged them not to kill both of us.Making sure his influence in the police station worked well, we spent a night under arrest, and the next morning, Fredrick Johnson arrived with my father.They were angry bulls that unleashed to beat us.They spent a significant amount of money to bail us out.And I couldn't swallow this defeat. That fu*king rascal was one of the most handsome men I had come across.Not just that, but that wench Layla attacked me and no one punished or stopped her.I tossed the bear doll in my hand to the wall.

Chapter 73

Edward~Tobin jerked into my office and fixed his tie. The way he appeared I guessed he wanted to suggest something."We have a conference!""I know! But before going there I want to know should we buy these machines for Kit's casinos?"He placed a catalog on my table."He didn't say anything about making his casino bigger.""I know! He always surprises us with gifts on our birthdays. But we never celebrated his birthday.""That's the day he lost his parents. I just didn't want to remark on his sad memories."He nodded, "We must change it for him. Last night, I was out with him. Dane and you are not single anymore. He has changed. He is getting depressed.""Deal! Let's make him happy and celebrate his birthday in my villa. I'll call you for preparation. But it will be only us."A wide smile stretched on his face and nodded."Alright, then! He is going to handle the rest of John's gang members then we can talk it over. I might help him.""Cool, as you wish but be vigilant!"Kit didn't

Chapter 74

Olive~I was studying in the library when Layla arrived and dragged a chair back, making noise and embarr*ssing me."How is it going?""Shush!"I looked around and apologized."Can you just be calm? You are disturbing them."I alerted her, grinned, and scanned her from top to toe! Oh, girl!I had never seen her replace those casual clothes with fantastic expensive brands."Were you on a date?"She blushed and raised her brow."Don't look at me like that. I don't like him!""No worries, many other girls do! He is handsome, funny, kind, and rich! It can melt every girl’s heart."I winked at her as she bit her lower lip."Maybe I like him just a little bit!"I giggled and pushed my textbook to her."Take this, I highlighted the important parts.""Are you leaving this early?""Yup, I promised Mira to go shopping with her."She pouted and shifted the textbook to her bag."I was here to gossip about Elenore! Are you sure she learned her lesson?""You pulled her hair, I'm sure she would reco

Chapter 75

Edward~Approaching to explain to her, a crowd appeared between us and she left. I looked around and couldn't find her."What is wrong with you?"Kit asked, placing his palm on my shoulder."I guess, I saw Olive!""Of course, you should feel guilty. But I mean why did you accept her invitation?"Kit complained."I didn't give her hope."I told him and walked out."Where are you going?""Seeing Grandpa! Then, I'll go home soon to see if Olive is angry with me!"I heard him cursing.We met Grandpa in his office and talked about the company's recent struggles and I suggested Grandpa come and visit me in my mansion, on Saturday night. There were particular unsolved things I should have fixed before marrying Olive.As soon as we came out of the office, we stumbled upon my grandma."How was your day, Grandma?"I asked. I didn't want to be chastised today and wished she would let me go in peace.Seeing my grandfather's happy face was worth everything, she was here to ruin it. He *ssumed that

Chapter 76

Olive~I have been sleeping in a different room for the past three days. Either way, I couldn't forgive him but felt his free cold space.It proved to me how addicted I had become to this man. I shall not be worried about him but I was. When he discovered I tried to keep my distance away, he gave me a cold shoulder which made me more pessimistic about his decision.I didn't want to marry him if his emotions were based on pity and feeling guilty for what he did.He used to leave early in the morning, and I couldn't notice when he got back. It must be late.We avoided making any other communication since that night. I pulled my coat up to my nose, making shapes on the snow. The tip of my forefinger turned pink.I loved this shore and how it was drawn while being dressed in snow."It is too cold, should you not get back inside?"Mira asked."No, I feel good to hear the gentle sound of the waves. The sea is calm."Charlie approached us."You have guests tonight. You might catch a cold."I

Chapter 77

Kit~"You three go to the next lane. We will block the way."I commanded my men. We got a few reports that people were being rubbed and attacked here, recently.This area was calm until last month. But the cases have increased night after night. No one had the guts to try me. I was curious how they had become this bold out of the blue.When I bought this casino, and some other buildings, I made sure no one was going to mess around. This district was already notorious and it had cost me an arm and a leg to bring safety for over five years."Boss, they are armed!"We heard gunshots and covered up in blind points.Tobin indicated at a small half-built apartment, "We must trap them in there. Less danger for people!"I nodded when I found it more logical."Lead them to us!"I asked my men in the next lane. He copied my order and we waited, ready.We heard footsteps and shouts. They were coming to us. Tobin and I rushed to the building and ambushed.Three young men came inside the building

Chapter 78

Olive~Looking at the clock on the wall, I frowned. It was eight o'clock and our guests would arrive anytime soon.As I expected, the security called and informed us about their arrival.Huxley and I went to greet them. His nervousness was apparently on the point.“Daughter! It is delightful to see you again.”After ending the rituals, and greeting them, they took their seats and Mr. Johnson looked around.My back chilled as I knew who he was looking for."Where is Ed?""He is on the way! I'm sure he will arrive soon!" It was the weekend and I had no other excuse.He nodded.“Please help yourself with something warm.”Mira and another maid served them with warm tea. Emily kept glancing at me and made it a hard time to run.And suddenly the security called Huxley. He came and whispered something strange in my ear."Your father and his wife are here."I blinked, then swallowed. What?Mr. Johnson was looking at me!"Your parents must be here."He smiled.That should be him who invited th

Chapter 79

Olive~Last night I didn't talk to Edward nor did I want to show an impulsive reaction toward what he did. Besides, his friends confirmed they were together when she appeared. But it was obvious she was in love and worried about him.Anyway, Edward and I were done yet I had to wait for a few days.Bang!I winced when Layla struck her palm against the book. We were sitting in my room. It was Sunday evening and she came to visit me to find out how they treated me last night.“His grandma doesn't like me. She prefers Maya. They almost picked up a fight l.”"I must find this girl!"I sighed when she indicated that."Let her be! I have no grudge. She is innocent."Her eyes widened, "She is seducing your husband! How can you be this calm and optimistic?"I bit my lower lip. This girl was not like Elenore."Tomorrow we are going to the town hall to be your witnesses! Don't tell me that you are fine if he invites her!?"I squeezed my fingers, "You should help me!""I say so! I can go kick tha

Chapter 80

Layla~"Are you mad at me?"I rolled my eyes away! The way he treated David made me think twice before going any further with him."Why did you hurt, David?""Heck, here you come again!""Why? Are you terrified that I realize what you are capable of doing?"He gazed at me in bewilderment and put the coffee down on the table. He bought me coffee from my favorite place to earn my heart."I'll tell you what you want to know but before that, you answer my question! Why don't you come out of your room? It has been two days and you didn't even answer my phone calls. If you don't care about me, then why are you sad and locked yourself here?""Your loving friend treated Olive like a monster. She is so important to me and you *ssist him in accusing her."He dragged a chair back and sat in front of me."I didn't *ssist him. We were p*ssing by when we saw you. He is possessive, I know but he is in love, and I can't control my grown brother."I drummed my fingers on the table."Did he cancel the
