บททั้งหมดของ A scandalous Love Affair: บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

OLIVIA.Weekdays are probably the busiest days for me and working for a huge multinational company such as this one added to the burden that was already weighing down my shoulders. I wonder how I've been able to cope with all the whisperings, fingers pointings from my colleagues that were so bent on gossiping and back biting me.I knew that they gossiped about me whenever I passed by them and even though they do it in a subtle manner, it still doesn't change the fact that they still judged me.I didn't let it get to me though. They don't know half of what I've been through. They only see the stuff that's being displayed on the internet by the media. They were able to talk shit because deep down, if they were given my shoes, it probably wouldn't fit at all and so I let them. As long as they don't pay my bills of do anything to help me, their words would only be mere words to me and that's it.I arrived at my office the next day and threw my things on the table. I didn't have the liber

DAVION."Shit!" I cussed out loudly at the impact of the coffee that had just stained my shirt. How did I go from arguing to fighting over a cup of coffee with this woman? The things she makes me do is just out of this world."I'm so sorry Sir." She apologized while I tried to wipe off the stains with my hands as if it would make any difference if I do. I stood up from my chair and darted my eyes to the transparent glass to see my already ruined dress."I honestly didn't mean to. If you had just listened and stopped arguing with me then none of this would've happened." She cried out. Her voice had taken a higher note."I only asked you to serve me coffee but you just decided to be Ursula instead."She glared at me wide-eyed. "What did you just call me?""See?" I pointed to myself. "We're arguing again and I haven't even fixed this first problem yet.""And that's because you always get on my nerves." She countered. "Every time, you do so say something that always sets me off. I'm begi

OLIVIA.I made my way out of my office and after gently shutting the door behind me, I took the route that led to Davion's office and stroded towards it. When I arrived, I stood at the entrance and contemplated if I should knock or simply ignore. I chose the later after much hesitation and when I heard his voice giving me the go ahead, I opened the door to make my way through but stopped abruptly.Going in like this meant seeing him shirtless. I might not be able to do anything about it but at least, I can prevent my eyes from drowning in the ocean of his bare, sleek sinew of his chest."Are you not coming?" He urged and after taking a deep breath. I turned my back and slowly made my way backwards into his office.I heard his loud echo of deep chuckle when he saw me but I couldn't care less. I would not loose myself the second time because of him no matter who comes short. He could do whatever he did and laugh at me however he wanted to but it simply isn't going to change a damn thin

DAVION.I made my way outside the company's building with Olivia trailing a few feet behind me. I had no idea why she chose to stay that far away when we were literally going towards the same direction. I think it's because maybe, she doesn't want anyone spotting us together.She had always talked about how much she hated this place and how nosy the people were so it's only given that she tries to stay away from them as much as possible.We arrived at the parking lot and I opened up the door for her. She got in immediately and I shut the door after her before taking the wheel. Once seated, I started the ignition and pulled out of the building.The ride to her house was quiet and I couldn't help but wonder why? Olivia was never the one to keep quiet about anything. She always said something and made sure to give me an earful at the slightest so I don't know why she was suddenly quiet.Was she still feeling shy about what had happened earlier? Or was it my imagination playing tricks on

OLIVIA."Tell me everything that had happened dear." Mom cajoled me. I was seated on the side of her hospital bed. Her hands were firmly held in mine and judging by how strong they were, I could tell that she was okay and getting better. Even her pale skin had added a little bit of color and she looked more alive than ever. I loved that she was okay. I loved that I got to see her like this. It means so much to me. "I've missed out so much that I think that I've been jetlagged." She laughed but I could see the pain through her eyes. She was hurt that she had been admitted here all her life.Mom was the type of person who loved fun. She loved to hang out and she was a sucker for romance and everything that would put a smile on her face. She loved being adventurous. She loved to travel and take the world under her feet. That's why when the news of her being diagnosed with cancer came into light, she couldn't bear it at all. It was like a piece of her had been removed and buried. Not to
