LOVE'S OVERRATED: Mr. Sterling, We're Over! Chapter 153. Have You Forgiven Me?
Olivia Barnett POVWhile the children slept, Josh pulled me to the balcony where flute glasses were ready with a bottle of chilled chardonnay in ice water. Beside it was a charcuterie board laden with cheeses, cured meats, pretzels, nuts, strawberries, and chocolates.But it was the view from above that caught my attention.It offered a magnificent view of the garden below, splattered with various colors. Shades of pastels with a verdant green background greeted my eyes.“This is beautiful!” I gasped at the beauty that surrounded me. I never thought there existed a paradise within the city.I felt him. Josh walked slowly toward me. Each step he took sent a signal to my heart, making it reverberate in awareness.Then, his arms wrapped around me.“Its beauty does not compare to you. In my eyes, you are more beautiful, Via.” ]Josh went to the table and retrieved two flutes and poured chardonnay into them. He brought the flutes to where I was standing. I took them and gladly sipped.“Thi
LOVE'S OVERRATED: Mr. Sterling, We're Over! Chapter 152. Let Me Court You Properly
Olivia Barnett POVThe party was slowly wrapping up. Friends who came to celebrate with us dwindled in numbers until all that was left were Josh, me, the triplets, Lucy, Lucas, Zeke, and Amee.Ivy yawned. Zoe raised her arms for Josh to lift her.He did it quite effortlessly, grabbing the two girls in his arms.They nuzzled his neck. Their heads rested on his shoulder. Their actions showed their trust, and it put a smile on my face. But more than that, I felt a pang for tearing my triplets from their father.If I had known he would be this devoted to his children, I wouldn’t have….“Don’t.” There was a warning in Josh’s expression.I looked at him in surprise, needing him to elaborate.“Don’t blame yourself too much. You did what you thought was best for our babies. You protected them even from me.” His voice sounded bitter.Five years ago, I thought he connived with Daisy Cobbs, but now, I knew better. He only said those things to pacify her.“You lost four years of their lives.”“I
LOVE'S OVERRATED: Mr. Sterling, We're Over! Chapter 151. Always Been a Sterling
Josh Morgan Sterling POVThe party resumed.My parents’ arrival momentarily stopped it, but when they left, everyone went back to what they were doing.On the other hand, I looked at the three faces of our children, at the fierce expression painted on their faces and the rigidity in their stance.They were only five years old, and yet they didn’t hesitate when they rushed in front of their mother like an impenetrable wall.They were so fiercely protective of Olivia, and fiercely loyal, too, despite their age.And my heart bled for them.How many times did they have to do that?How many times did they face people to defend their mother?And who defended them when their mother was not around?While Olivia was thanking and praising them, I crouched low in front of the triplets and in one fell swoop, I scooped them all in my arms, hugging them.My shoulders shook with the emotion that consumed them.But this time, I did not apologize. I made a promise not only to them, but to myself as we
LOVE'S OVERRATED: Mr. Sterling, We're Over! Chapter 151. Protecting Mommy and You
Olivia Barnett POV“So the prodigal wife is back.”My body immediately stiffened, not at the question but at the sight of the people before me.Mary and Jayson Sterling, Josh’s parents, eyed me with disdain. They looked at me the way they had since I set foot in the Sterling mansion, as if I was just a mere speck of dust in their midst.Josh laid a protective hand on me. Then, he faced his parents.“What are you doing here? This is a private party. You are not invited here.”The expression on Mary’s face shifted. It was the first crack I saw on her facade.She was about to retaliate, probably with a scathing remark, but the children caught her attention. They raced toward us and formed a protective fence in front of me.“No one touches our mommy,” Leo said as if he had done this countless times.I placed a hand on his shoulder, telling him without words to back down. After all, the people before us were their grandparents, Josh’s parents.“Mister Sterling, Madam Sterling.” I addressed

Olivia Barnett POVThe drones continued to move, capturing priceless moments that are readily displayed on the screen.I looked at Josh.He had a smile on his face.A feeling of contentment settled inside me.A few weeks ago, I did not think that we would come to this.I went back here ready to sign my marriage away. I was ready for goodbye. I did not expect that the goodbye I was expecting would instantly turn into welcome back and restarting over.Until now, there are still blurry lines in our relationship, but I decided when I gave Josh a chance that I would take each day as it comes.“My wife came here, ready to divorce me.” Josh shared some tidbits about our relationship, and parts of it made my face flush.“What she didn’t know was that I spent the last five years waiting for her return, planning on making her mine again.”There was a collective gasp. And a loud whistle.“I admit I am still on probation. But I am working my a*s right now, to change our status into something more

Olivia Barnett POVI went to meet my family, thinking that we were going to have a private celebration. Limited to the five of us. Lucas, I expected to be there after the celebratory lunch, bearing the forms needed to register the triplets as Sterling.I did not expect that Josh would spring up an elaborate surprise. That there was going to be a party attended by our friends, and some people from the press.The moment I walked in, there were congratulations.I pressed a hand to my chest, clearly overwhelmed.There was nothing simple about the whole thing. And for Josh to manage to call on everyone that matters?I smiled when I heard the children’s giggles, and then Josh came forward, grabbed me and tipped my chin for a kiss. Heaven!I heard a whirring sound. When I looked up, I counted at least three drones flying, but I was mostly aware of the erratic beating of my heart.When Josh pulled back, I realized there was a large LED screen in the middle, and it was replaying our kiss!And
