Olivia Barnett POV

I saw Josh shake his head. In three strides, he stopped in front of Grandpa and took his gnarled hands. Then, he pressed Grandpa’s hand to his cheek.

“If there is anyone who has to apologize, it is I, Grandpa. I am sorry for thinking badly about you. For resenting you through all these years. I thought…” His voice trailed off before he shut his eyes.

When he opened them, I saw clarity in his vision. He looked at Grandpa with too much understanding now.

And Grandpa? He looked

  • LOVE'S OVERRATED: Mr. Sterling, We're Over!   Chapter 161. How Not to be a B*stard in Front of Your Wife?

    Josh Morgan Sterling POVMy hand tightened around the shot glass as I watched my wife have a good time with her college friends. My eyes narrowed suspiciously at the familiar man with them.“Hey, stop giving the man the dagger look. He is Olivia and Lucy’s friend from way back from college.” Lucas slid to the bar counter stool next to me.He gestured for the waiter, grabbed peanuts from the bowl sitting on the counter, and popped them in his mouth.I invited him tonight after Olivia told me she was catching up with Lucy and one male friend back in college.It was right after we talked about the children’s paternity. After the emotional moment, she was so happy when she told me. I did not even have time to say no.I wanted to disallow her, but that would be insane. Olivia, as she had proven time and time again to me, is a woman all on her own.When his order arrived, I shot him a confused look.“You are getting drunk?” I asked.“Maybe.”His reply puzzled me.Lucas was not a hard drinke

  • LOVE'S OVERRATED: Mr. Sterling, We're Over!   Chapter 160. Lost Her

    Zeke Alexander POVWe were out of Sterling Enterprises when I snuck a look at my passenger. She was silent. Her hands were placed neatly in her lap, and her eyes were fixed ahead.Her breathing was steady.“Why did you choose me?” I asked, breaking the silence between us.“I did not choose you. I just chose peace.”My gaze shifted back to the front to concentrate on my driving. The traffic was light. There was no traffic to distract me.I sighed and gripped the steering wheel.From the corner of my eye, I kept glancing at her, noticing the steady rise and fall of her chest. She did not look like a trapped animal

  • LOVE'S OVERRATED: Mr. Sterling, We're Over!   Chapter 159. Second Goodbye

    Amee Wilson POVThe rest of the day flew by in a blur.I was busy preparing documents, and before I knew it, it was already late when Lucas placed a glass of water in front of me.“You did not take a break.” He told me.I gratefully took the glass. “Thanks. I was busy. I tend to forget things sometimes.The look he gave me was sharp. “Don’t forget to drink water. It’s important for your health.” He crafted his sentences vaguely, without giving any hint to anyone within earshot about my real condition, and I was grateful.He sat on the corner of my desk. The casual action created a ripple effect in the office. There was a hushed silence that it caused in the glass sloshed.“Careful.” He said, and wrapped his fingers around the glass to steady my hold on it, causing our fingers to touch.“Sir.” I tried to call his attention. If he hadn’t realized it yet, I think he should now.But his attention was all on me. “Sir? Didn’t we clear this already? Call me Lucas. No one’s gonna bite your he

  • LOVE'S OVERRATED: Mr. Sterling, We're Over!   Chapter 158. A Great Guy to Date

    Lucy Cole POVI pressed a hand to my chest, feeling light-headed all of a sudden.I don’t know what is wrong with me.Was it because I had uncovered a secret I was not supposed to know? But that was absurd! I had been privy to all of Olivia’s secrets before; nothing like this ever happened to me.I ran toward the elevator bank. I caught the elevator just before it closed, and got in.I retreated to the far side of the rectangular box, leaned back, and pressed the back of my head on the wall.Then I closed my eyes and let out a sigh, but in my memory there was a vivid image of Lucas Morris staring straight up at me, which made my pulse rise again.What is happening? Something is definitely not right with me.When the elevator reached our floor, I got out so fast and went straight to my cubicle. Because I was in a hurry and was not looking where I was going, I bumped into Maisie, who was also scurrying off somewhere.She was surprised to see me.She took one look at my flushed face and

  • LOVE'S OVERRATED: Mr. Sterling, We're Over!   Chapter 157. Stop Overthinking

    Amee Wilson POVThe sudden dawning in Lucy’s eyes, like it was a Eureka moment, made me pause. And then it hit me!Lucy looked at me with so much admiration in her eyes. There was curiosity, too, but more than that, there was a new kind of respect.“You know, Mr. Lucas Morris was a very private person. He never socializes. As in never. He has a reputation for being a recluse. And he’s untouchable. But girl! The way he worries about you today…” Her voice trailed off, and I could feel the crimson spreading all over my cheeks.Frantically, I waved my hands as if it could dispel the conclusion she formed in her head.“No. You got it wrong. I am just his employee.”Lucy tapped my shoulder. “Relax. I am not judging, okay. It’s your business. It’s your life. I was just surprised by the undercurrents earlier, and now I know why.”Then, a chuckle escaped from her lips.“Frankly, I did not think that he was this fast a worker. I thought he did not like women in general. But this is really….” L

  • LOVE'S OVERRATED: Mr. Sterling, We're Over!   Chapter 156. Protective of You

    Amee WilsonI sat on the front passenger seat of Mr. Lucas’s car while Lucy and Mr. Sterling's secretary, the one they called Maisie, sat in the back.I was nervously watching Zeke. I thought he would insist on getting me back to the office. Thank goodness he had the good sense to stop. I did not want another spectacle. I just wanted to be at peace.It was only when I was settled that the tension in my body finally eased.Earlier, I was worried there would be another scuffle between Lucas and Zeke. But thankfully, both men controlled their temper, mitigating another encounter.The ride back to the office was silent, with only the background music from Lucas’ Bluetooth speaker as our main sound.I had known her when I visited Mr. Jonathan Sterling, but I only knew of Maisie today. She said she worked with Olivia before as an assistant when Olivia still served as Mr. Josh Morgan Sterling’s executive assistant.When the car stopped, the valet came forward, and he handed his car keys.
