Chapter: CHAPTER 6_ Uproar “Son, isn't this a little too extravagant?” Mrs Ashford and also Kevin's mother inquired. She was dressed in a deep blue gown which was similar to the one Nancy had on. Her hazel eyes fell on Olivia for a second. “We could have donated the funds to charity instead..”Her spiteful remark didn't stop the smile from spreading on Olivia's face, in fact she was more than happy that they chose to grace this day with their presence.“Mum, not now or here, today is a very happy occasion for Olivia and I. We both need your blessings and not sarcastic comments..” Kelvin defended, his hands freely fell on Olivia's shoulder.“There's nothing to be happy about son! three years and not a single kid-“Dad..please talk to mum” “Well she's right..” Mr Ashford defended his wife's words. He never liked Olivia from the start because she wasn't his choice for his son. Olivia silently watched them say demeaning things about her, from a corner of her eye she caught Nancy trying to stop herself from giggl

Chapter: CHAPTER 5_ Lies Everything they told her was nothing but a lie. Every act, every care and affection. People she once considered friends and relatives joined hands to betray her. Olivia dabbed the white handkerchief under her eye bag. The unique scent on it had her freezing for a second, she raised her head looking around her to spot who might have handed it to her but the club was bursting with a ton of sweaty people. “Mrs Ashford.. you left in a hurry..” Taking a glance up, she spotted Mr Miller rushing up to meet up with her. Meanwhile, her fingers brushed on the embroidery crafted at the bottom part of the piece of material in her grip. A.AShe assumed that it was the initials of the person who gave this to her. She carefully folded it and placed it into her purse. Sniffing softly, she met her attorney's gaze. “You said this process can take two weeks to be completed, I think we need to get to work..” Mr Miller gave a nod and walked away with her towards his car. He stopped for a second wh

Chapter: CHAPTER 4_ HumiliationLater that night, Olivia spikes a fever and she's burning hot. Her petite frame was coiled up underneath the thick blanket over her. This was a result of her staying outside for so long watching the servants clear the rose garden.She heard the door open but was too lazy and weak to lift her head up. Kelvin who just walked in notices something was off with her, he rushed to the bed and pulls her into his arms. “Damn you're burning hot..honey” His clothes carried another woman's perfume or to be more specific, her husband was covered with Nancy's perfume. She could only melt in his arms against what she wanted since she couldn't move a muscle in her body.Kelvin sat there all night letting her sleep in his arms, he never let her out of his sight and even when he fell asleep, his hands never left her.The next morning, Olivia's lashes fluttered open. She was feeling much better than last night. “You’re awake..God, I was so worried about you. You should have called to inform me about y

Chapter: CHAPTER 3_ AffairA few minutes into the silent drive, Kelvin spotted something and pulled over at a corner in the noisy street. He unbuckled his seatbelt which startled Olivia for a second. “I’ll be right back..” he murmured before stepping out of the car. She trailed his movement closely with her eyes until he stopped in front an ice cream stall..She couldn't hear what Kelvin was discussing with the stall owner but at a point they looked toward her and smiled. Soon, he returned to the car with the ice cream he got. Kelvin smiled as he stretched the chocolate flavoured ice cream to her. “You loved this when we were at college..” Forcing a smile, Olivia accepted it. She brought it to her lips taking a lick off, normally it should be tasty but all she could taste was nothing. Soon a dull stomach pain kicked in, Kelvin noticed and became worried.“Oh dear, let's stop by at the hospital you don't look so good–“There’s no need for that. Just take me home” Olivia declined, she handed the ice cream back

Chapter: CHAPTER 2_ Pefect HusbandThe soft golden rays pierced through the yellow curtains falling on the sleeping figure deeply cuddled by her husband. Kelvin’s arm was possessively wrapped around Olivia's slim waist. Her hair was sprawled on the pillow below her head. He stared at her sleeping face for as long as forever while maintaining the small smile on his lips. Bringing his other hand, he pushed the hair over her face behind her left ear.His actions were enough to stir her. She groaned softly as she turned on her side to him, he immediately noticed the discomfort on her face despite her eyes still being closed. He pulled her closer to himself, this time her head was directly placed on his chest. He reached down for her abdomen giving it a gentle rub. “Honey..does it hurt? I noticed that you've been moody lately” he lowered his head in a whisper. Two seconds passed without getting a response from her. Olivia's lashes fluttered and she slowly lifted her eyelids. A gasp left her lips at the closeness. That w
