It was already past eleven in the morning and Asher was nowhere to be found in the company. He clearly didn't show up at work today for reasons best known to him.

But Olivia was a bit restless, she has lost count on the number of times she left for the ladies room hoping to catch a glimpse of him on her way.

Sadly, whenever she passed by his office, the seat was always empty and void of a presence.

“Olivia.” Jade leaned down and whispered next to Olivia's ear.

It took only a second for Oliv

  • The Day She Chose Herself, He Begged For A Second Chance.   CHAPTER 77_ Genuine

    CHAPTER 77_ Genuine Jade smiled at the Cops as they stepped out of their house, news just reached to them that Fred and his wife have been captured and they came over to get their statement regarding what happened at the restaurant and also the case filed against the couple.“Things seem to be going in our favor,” Jade said, closing the door behind her. Her smile froze slightly when she noticed Olivia’s head was buried inbetween her palms.And by the time the latter raised her head up, her face was covered in tears accompanied by several chuckles.“Are you alright..?” Jade worriedly asked, drawing closer. “I can’t believe that I’m finally free,” Olivia sniffed. “I’ve never felt this happy in a long while.” She continued, wiping her tears gently.It took only seconds for Jade’s eyes to tear up also, she closed the gap between them and crouched down before Olivia.“I know, right..? There’s no one to stop you or come after you either..”“All thanks to Asher,” Olivia murmured, meeting

  • The Day She Chose Herself, He Begged For A Second Chance.   CHAPTER 76_ Lies

    CHAPTER 76_ LiesAgnes twirled her tall glass of wine slowly as she watched the tall manly figure walking into her living room.Her legs were crossed over the coffee table but at the sight of him, she pulled them off and lifted one over the other instead.Deep down, she was scared to the bones but she managed to keep on a straight face.“I didn’t expect you to come–”“Was it you?” Asher cut in sharply. Agnes was at a loss for a second, she instantly threw her shoulders lightly in the air. “What do you mean..?” She feigned confusion so well that even Asher began doubting what he really saw earlier today. He was in no mood to beat around the bush with her today, Olivia was attacked twice today and he suspected that Agnes had something to do with it.Asher’s hands fisted by both sides, inhaling sharply he met her gaze coldly. “I won’t ask you for a second time, Agnes. Did you have anything to do with what happened to Olivia today?!”Agnes was taken aback by the anger laced in his voic

  • The Day She Chose Herself, He Begged For A Second Chance.   CHAPTER 75_ Attacked

    CHAPTER 75_ AttackedAgnes paced around the room impatiently as she stared at Tom who was fixing his sniper rifle. She had no more time to waste anymore and she’s doing everything in her power to eliminate Olivia at the earliest.Her plan to run the latter over earlier today didn’t exactly work out as planned, Asher got in the way and saved Olivia.“How much longer is this gonna take?” She spat irritably, swerving in his direction. “Olivia will leave the restaurant any moment from now.” Everything was well timed and perfectly laid out.Agnes had reached out to one of Olivia’s business partners and struck a deal with him which involved a lot of money that his greedy ass can't say no to.The plan was simple, lure Olivia out to a particular restaurant while her and Tom stay in a seven storey building across the street to finish her off.Olivia already arrived at the restaurant but to her amazement, the latter brought Asher over. “What about now?” She inquired, still as impatient as ev

    CHAPTER 74_ Annoyance “Can you imagine..? He said that I’m doing too much.” Jade relayed, pacing around the ward. “Am I really doing too much?” She questioned, halting for a second.On the other hand was Aiden, fed up with her non stop blabbering since the last twenty minutes she arrived with his breakfast.His gaze was solely concentrated on his phone but he spared her a glance when she threw her question at him.“I’m glad that I’m not the only one who feels so.” He remarked. “And what in seven hells makes you think that I’m interested in any of this.?” He questioned back, his voice laced in irritation and impatience.Jade was taken aback by his outburst, her hand fell lightly on her chest as she made a dramatic gasp.“How dare you..” She whispered. “Don’t vent all your anger on me, I’m only trying to fill you in on the situation at hand and how Olivia’s life is–”“I don’t care.” He answered back. “I don’t even know why you keep coming back here now the nurses thinks that you’re my

    CHAPTER 73_ Wanted“What..?” Jade whispered, turning the volume of the TV up. She spun her head around the room in search of Olivia but couldn’t find her.“Who opened a case against them..?” She whispered to herself. “How come she never told me?” She thought aloud.“Olivia!” Jade called, rising to her feet. She tossed the remote to the couch and turned around only to catch Olivia’s figure descending the stairs. “Olivia, you won’t believe what’s on the news.”There was a slight crease on Olivia’s brows, she silently hoped and prayed that it wasn’t something that could defame her or her company.“What is it..? Is it bad?”Jade pointed to the TV where the news reporter was still speaking, by both sides of the screen were Fred and his wife Stella who the Cops has declared wanted.Olivia turned her head Jade’s way at once. “Do you have anything to do with it?”Jade was taken aback. “What? No, I thought that you filed a case against them.”“I didn’t, okay..? Besides, I’d need solid proof t

    CHAPTER 72_ Wonder“Jade…?” Olivia snapped her head to the door when she heard it open. Jade on the other hand arched a brow when she saw Olivia walking towards her.“Yeah, I’m back and please don’t get me started on Aiden because that dummy seems to be getting himself into more trouble.” She said in a breath, tossing her purse to the couch. “I can’t even stand him for a second, he’s always getting on my nerves and looking for ways to irritate me.”Jade instantly noticed the tension in the atmosphere, she inched closer to Olivia with a creased brow.“Tell me, Olivia. Did something happen while I was gone?”Olivia let out a painful smile, shaking her head gently not in denial but in wonder. How come she didn’t think of it sooner?The culprit has been there all along.“I know who killed Pops.” She broke the news.There was a slight disturbance on Jade’s brows.“Good, now we can turn them in to the Cops. Just give me a name and I’ll go file a complaint this very minute.” She persuaded.
