Seventy One

ADRIAN “Yes, I do love you, Olivia, and I am not ashamed to admit it. I will cross the seven seas for your sake. I am not a fighter, but I am ready to fight for your love regardless of the consequences that await,” I affirmed as though I was reading a poem. It took me a while to make the bold statement, but I was glad I did. After the proclamation, I was relieved. A massive stone rolled away from my heart. It was the best five minutes of my life. “If you love me this much, then let’s get married immediately. What are we waiting for? I don’t mind filing for a divorce from Cyril. I need to be free again. I surely deserve a better life,” Olivia said to me. She said it like she meant it. She held me closer and kissed my hand and forehead in a romantic gesture. Instantly, a sparkle formed in my head. It’s safe to say that Olivia has the sweetest touch ever. I looked at her and said, “I will be glad to spend the rest of your life with you. But for now, let’s find out who’s trying to me

Seventy Two

OLIVIA “Excuse me, Adrian. Do you two know each other before?” I asked Adrian out of curiosity. Their sudden bonding was getting to bore me. I couldn’t help but ask. It wasn’t too long before Adrian walked inside the station, and he was already exchanging pleasantries with one of the cops as though they’d known each other for a thousand years. “Oh, yes, we do know each other. Too bad I didn’t introduce him to you when I should have,” Adrian confirmed in a rush. He didn’t even wait for me to finish asking before responding. It was as though he knew I was going to ask the question. “Matthew and I used to be best friends way back in high school. Too bad he relocated to Germany with his parents,” Adrian further explained as his smiles widened to his ears. It was strange to see smiles on Adrian’s face after the shit I made him go through in recent times. It was the first time I’d met someone posing as Adrian’s friend. I used to believe that he was an introvert until that moment.

Seventy Three

OLIVIA“What’s wrong with you, Olivia? Your phone is ringing. Why don’t you answer it? You’ve been dull lately. Do you want to let something off your heart? Don’t worry, this is a safe place. There’s nothing to be scared of,” Adrian urged me after he noticed how restless I suddenly became after my phone rang.I didn’t respond to him. I would rather not complicate things further. I also didn’t want to put too much pressure on Adrian, considering the fact that he has been with me since my troubles started.““This isn’t about me being scared to speak, Adrian. You know I don’t hesitate to share my problems with you. It’s just kind of different this time. No matter how I explain, you will never understand,” I said quietly.He held my hand and forced me to look into his eyes. “Hey, look at me. I am here to support your every move. If you feel bothered, please share. You know I got good listening ears. Trust me when I say I will understand anything you say right now.”I was starting to fall

ADRIANFrom the look on Olivia's face, I knew she was shocked to see me. If she could turn back the hands of time, she would have scanned the entire area before answering the phone.Her mysteries keep piling up. Who would have thought that Cyril was responsible for the attack we escaped? It's a question I couldn't respond to regardless of how I tried to rack my head.“We need to go back to the officer. I guess he must be waiting for us already,” Olivia insisted. She forced a smile to trick me into forgetting about the issue. She had no idea that I was smarter than she.“There’s no way I am letting you leave this place until you tell me what I want to hear,” I said in a commanding tone, blocking her exit.I didn’t mind causing a scene just to fetch the truth from her.I felt used.I felt ridiculed.Despite my efforts to ensure she gets justice, it is too bad she hasn’t acknowledged my efforts for once.I had a thousand reasons to back out from the case. Instead, I decided to stay back

RENEI can’t wait to hear the devastating news of Olivia’s death. It will be the biggest thing that has happened to me in a while. In her next life, she wouldn’t dare stand in my way when I want to achieve something remarkable.I want Adrian to myself, and I’m going to get him, no matter how challenging it is.I haven’t stopped checking my phone, hoping my hired assassins will call or text to share the news about Olivia’s death. I paid them to eliminate her, and I’m pretty sure they’ll do a fantastic job.As I paced around my room, my phone rang. I immediately checked it, every belief in me screaming it was the hired assassins calling.Sadly, I was met with disappointment when I noticed that it was my mom calling my phone.“Like seriously? Oh no, not now. Why does it have to be my mom?” I hissed and dropped the phone immediately.Just like me, my mom had been yearning to hear the news of Olivia’s death. I am pretty sure that was what she wanted to speak to me about.The plan with my m

RENE“Speak up this minute or forever remain silent. I didn’t sign up for any of this. Just go straight to the point and stop beating around the bush like a headless hen,” I yelled, practically tearing into Ghost. His silent treatment was messing with my head. He knew for a fact that I hate being kept in suspense, and yet, he kept doing it as if it were nobody’s business.“I don’t even know how to say this to you because I am pretty sure you’d be mad at me,” Ghost freaked out. He kept dragging his utterances, which didn’t sit too well with me.I was tempted to smash my phone against the ground in anger. I decided to hold on to my anger.“You should be lucky you are not here next to me right now. I would have smashed your head against the wall,” I threatened. It wasn’t something I would have done. I only said that to scare Ghost and force him to speak.“We missed out on Olivia, ma’am. It wasn’t the kind of assassination operation we had envisaged,” Ghost finally confessed.It’s safe to

Seventy Seven

RENEI couldn't stop glaring at the photos Ghost had forwarded to my socials. How he managed to capture Cyril and Olivia in such a compromising manner remains a mystery to me. It was as though he had read my thoughts and knew exactly what I needed.After receiving the photos, I was tempted to request his account details to send him a token of appreciation, even though the operation has not ultimately been successful.As I admired the photos, my phone rang. I hoped it would be Cyril. He was the only person I wanted to speak to. His calls meant more to me than even my mother's.Just as I had thought, it was indeed Cyril. I looked away from the phone and smiled.I ended the call, overwhelmed with excitement. Not only that, I was also struggling with anxiety. I needed to compose myself before breaking the good news to Cyril, regardless of how he might feel about it.After assuring myself to stay calm, I returned the missed calls from Cyril."Where are you now?"We both spoke at the same t

RENE “I ask you again, Rene, what the fuck am I seeing right now? Is this some sort of joke? Do you think I’m some kind of kid that can be easily fooled?" Cyril ranted repeatedly. He couldn't believe his eyes. He thought it was all a dream, venting his anger at me as though I were the one who cheated on him. I didn’t blame Cyril for acting that way towards me, and neither did I retaliate when he yelled at me. After banking on Olivia, believing she would never cheat on him, he suddenly saw photos of his supposedly faithful wife acting all cozy with another man. I would do worse if I was in his shoes. “Exactly what you saw, Cyril. I am pretty sure you have eyes, haven’t you? Or does your darling wife have a doppelganger you aren’t aware of?” I mocked him, my words dripping with sarcasm. I intended to get under his thick skin, to make him develop an even deeper hatred for Olivia. “Could this be the work of Photoshop? It’s difficult to believe Olivia would have the nerve to c

RENE “After everything that happened, you still think I should call and ask about her whereabouts now?” “Of course, you just have to. I don’t want you stressing your head over someone who isn’t even worth it. Now look at you—she’s succeeded in making you a shadow of yourself,” I insisted, adding weight to my words to convince him successfully. Cyril stayed silent for a while. I knew he was processing what I had told him, so I didn’t interfere with his thoughts. I gave him all the time he needed to think things through. As much as I was desperate to become his legally wedded wife, I was still smart enough to know that excessive intrusion might ruin my chances—especially considering how sharp Cyril is. “I think you’re right. I’m going to give her a call right now,” Cyril finally decided after giving it a second thought. For a while, he called Olivia repeatedly, but she wasn’t answering. It frustrated him to the point where he nearly smashed his phone against the wall in anger

OLIVIAAfter I got off the phone with Cyril, I lost what little happiness I had left. He always had a way of ruining my day at the slightest opportunity. It was as though he was being paid to do it.Telling him I was at the office was the biggest mistake I had ever made. I wished I had never answered the phone or uttered a word to him.“Do you really need to be here? I mean, you should be home by now. You’ve done a lot for me today. Besides, Cyril will be coming soon. I don’t want him to meet you here,” I told Adrian. Ever since I was nearly killed, he hadn’t left my side.He kept protecting me as though he were a special bodyguard assigned by the president of the United States.“Do you really expect me to leave just like that and let Cyril devour you? Come on, I can’t do something like that. I need to be sure that you’re safe before leaving. I won’t forgive myself if anything bad happens to you. I don’t mean to sound rude or anything, but I don’t trust you alone with Cyril. Yes, he m
