Three years ago, Olivia Cruz made the biggest mistake of her life, getting married to this man. Even though marriage was not built on love, she was hoping her love would change him one day, and who knows, he would reciprocate the feelings. After years of suffering from one-sided love, she only got pain, hatred, heartbreak, pregnancy, which was the only thing she could hold on to, and finally, her doom, death. Olivia regretted her actions, living for her husband all these years got her nothing, she wished she could be given another chance. Another chance to make things right. This time, she wasn't going to be that naive girl, this time, she was going to live for herself alone and be selfish with her happiness. All hope was lost on her end, however, she was given a chance at come back again, but this time, not as that girl that was used by her husband. She was going to get her revenge this time, and that was something she solely set her mind on...

Your new home is blessed," The old lady who helped us with our marriage procedures smiled heartily as she handed our marriage to us each, and I took it from her with a warm smile."Thank you," I looked at Dante who had a deep frown on his face, and the imagination of the nightmare he might be experiencing at the moment gave me nothing but excitement and satisfaction."Would you like to get a few marriage advise from me, young couples? You both look good together and---""Meet me outside when you are done," Dante's voice was filled with anger and impatient as he spoke to me, and with that, he walked out of the office, leaving the old lady speechless."Ma'am, I would've really loved to hear your piece of advise, but I don't have time now. I will drop by some other time. Thanks for today," After I politely said to her, I left to go join Dante outside, and there he was, leaning against his car. He stood straight and straigh
Chapter 19Olivia Cruz"Yo! Are you going out on a date?" Claire threw herself on the bed tiredly as soon as she walked inside the room from the bathroom, all wrapped in a blanket."Maybe. What's up with the blanket? Are you cold? And why are you not dressed yet? Aren't you going to work today?" I looked back at her from the mirror."I don't feel like going to that God forsaken damn office. They are draining my blood and what do I get in the end? Nothing but peanut! Ugh! I'm so angry," She sat up on the bed and exhaled deeply."Maybe I should never have chosen that profession. Do you think I can still opt out now? I can just do something else and build my law firm later when I have more than enough money. Don't you think so?" I looked at her and shrugged."If you are not fine there, you can always do something else," Of course, I could not advise her to stay back there when she literally does all the work and yet not getting the kind of pay she deserves. She is an adult who has bills
Chapter 18"Half of my properties? She must be crazy," It has been two days since that incident, still Dante could not stop reminiscing on those ridiculous words while asking himself repeatedly what made her think he would ever do that."Fuck that! I'm going to find my way around it," He scoffed loudly, but what other way was he going to go about this especially as nobody was ready to help him? Olivia was the only one he could use, but that's crazy of her. "How does she expect me to do that? I've worked hard for this all my life. I've laboured for this for years, and now she just want to take everything just because of what? Ugh! This is driving me nuts," Pacing in his office and talking to himself was crazy, but that was nothing compared to the shit he had ahead of him."She is crazy, isn't she? She even resigned. Who else will take her in?" He ran his fingers through his hair crazily and huffed."She will come back when she realize that my company is the only place she can work," He
Chapter 17Olivia Cruz"I'm so happy for you, darling. I can't wait to see my beautiful baby on the TV. Gosh! I'm blushing," Claire squeaked excitedly while lying on the bed and kicking her legs in the air."Claire..." I paused and slumped on the bed. It was my first day to go start training for the upcoming launching of their product, but I was so nervous."I'm scared, babe. What if this doesn't work out? What if things doesn't work out well?"She quickly sat up on the bed and held my hand."You are a gifted and talented young lady. I'm positive this will turn out well..." She stroked my hair and gave me a heartwarming smile."Trust yourself as much as I trust you, and watch miracle happen," "That was satisfying enough," It felt like a burden was just lifted off my shoulders. I never knew little words from a friend could uplift my spirit, but it did, anyway."See you around. Let's have a drink together tonight when I get back later," I waved at her before I finally left for the compa
Chapter 16'Let's break up' Dante scoffed again as those words replayed in his head. She had said a lot of things to him, and all of them were unexpected, but that was the last thing he'd ever expect to hear from her, knowing how crazy she has always been about him."What's going on?" He mumbled as he ran his fingers through his hair, trying to think of something, but failed to come up with anything. Why the sudden change? Why does it feel like she was not the same Olivia he used to know? What came over her?"Dante... Are you going to keep ignoring me?" Emily, who was lying on the bed with a duvet covering her body, pouted her lips as she stared up at Dante who was busy staring at his reflection in the mirror as he kept clenching and unclenching his fist.After the incident at Olivia's apartment last night, Dante had returned home, only to find Emily waiting for him at his apartment. He was going to confront her for coming over without informing him, but was too moody to do that, so h
Chapter 15Olivia Cruz POVDante glared hard at Knox's car until it was out of his sight, and I just wondered what he wanted. Has he made his decision yet?"Dante... You are here?" I smiled at him like nothing happened. Wait! Did something actually happen? I don't think so though."You didn't tell me you were coming around. Did you come to surprise me?" Those were the craps he told me the other time, so it wouldn't hurt to tell him the same thing, yeah?"So you would've stayed back at home and not hang out with someone if I told you I was coming, yeah?" He scoffed angrily, and I pulled a puzzled look. Why the fuck was he acting like a loving boyfriend jealous of his girlfriend hanging out with another man? Does that make sense coming from a man who doesn't give a shit about me?"I would've still gone out if you told me you were coming. At least that would've saved you the stress of coming over if you had known that I was not around," I shrugged. I couldn't hide my sarcasms because I w
Chapter 14Olivia Cruz POVIt was finally the dinner date party Knox told me about, and here I was, all alone and staring at nothing. It couldn't have been just the employees that were so much. I guess other people were invited too. I wouldn't have been alone here if only Claire didn't refuse to come with me.'Why should I go with you? You are the one who will be working there' Came her reply after I pleaded with her for almost the whole night. She's mean, don't you think so?"Ms. Cruz... You are here. This way," Mr. Jack, the manager finally came to get me from the place I was seated, and I followed him without questioning him about where he was taking me."Have you been waiting for long?""Not really," Although I only waited for a couple of minutes, it felt like forever."Mr. Knoxville is with the other employees. We've all been waiting for you," It was then I realized that the people who were drinking earlier were not employees and might just be guests."I thought those people over
Chapter 13Olivia Cruz POV'I'm thinking we should go for the transplant first, and after that, we'll get married, have our honeymoon, and I'll take care of you. What do you think about that?' Those were the same words he said to me then and I didn't think twice about it before I accepted. I didn't think about the possibility of being betrayed by him because I trusted him so much and believed he could never do that to me. Well, it's all in the past now, and no way I would make the same mistake again."Babe, you're not saying anything?" He held my hand and kissed the back of my palm knowing it was going to give me chills. It always felt like I was going to lose my mind whenever he did this to me then, but fuck all those feelings! All I felt now was disgust."I thought you were still going to say something," "No, you should say something. I'm done talking," "I have my own arrangements, babe. Do you want to hear them?" I looked him in the eyes, and I didn't fail to notice the shock in
Chapter 12Olivia Cruz POV'It was a robbery. Were there missing items?' The police had asked us after reported what happened to them. I contacted Claire who had gone to work where she works as a junior lawyer, and after that, I called over the police for investigation. Though they concluded it was a robbery act after thorough investigation, it was still weird considering that nothing was stolen from us. Someone must've broken into our house to vandalize our properties knowing that we were away, but it didn't make sense because I didn't remember being at loggerheads with anyone. If only the street CCTV cameras were working, then we wouldn't have been on a guessing game.I had to text Dante that I wouldn't be able to make it, so we rescheduled till tomorrow."Ollie... I'm scared... What if this was not robbery?" Claire whispered as we lay on the bed in the middle of the night, and I turned to her."I can't sleep. I'm worried about someone breaking into our house again. Do you think we
