OliviaAt first, Logan didn’t like the idea of us tagging along. I mean, we weren’t involved, but I felt like it’s the perfect opportunity to start implementing whatever plan we have in mind, which I was about to discuss with Logan while on our way to the restaurant. I made Logan call Amelia and ask for the location. I’m sure if Amelia didn’t inform the family members about our arrival, it would be a shock for them. Well, they are going to be even more shocked when they learn that Logan and I are married. Yes, I’m planning on telling them. Whether they accept it or not, it won’t change my relationship with Logan.I found myself wondering how I got the strength to stand up, not only because of Lisa and Jamie. I remembered my Grandma’s words – I should do what makes me happy. And this is the first step. “I don’t know why they chose to go to a restaurant so far away,” a disgruntled Logan hissed out beside me.I turned my body to face him. “I’m sure they want the best restaurant out there

OliviaMy eyes opened to Logan playing with a strand of my hair as he smoothed it in a calming way. “Good morning,” I mumbled with a yawn escaping me.“Good morning, baby,” Logan leaned forward and planted a kiss on my lips that lasted barely two seconds. My head rested on his bare chest. I felt my cheeks heat up. Getting a kiss in the early morning surely sent butterflies fluttering in my stomach, especially after the way Logan and I had spent the night. It wasn't like we had sex. Logan had said he didn't want to hurt the baby. Even though I assured him that having a single round of sex wouldn't harm the baby in any way, he didn't listen and instead held me close in his warmth, and that was how we slept.“How long have you been up?” I asked as I looked at him. His hand was still playing with my hair, and I found it to be a soothing remedy for my exhausted self.“Not long ago. I couldn’t resist admiring a beauty,” he said, making me raise an eyebrow.“What beauty?”“Your beauty, of co

Olivia “So, what do you guys suggest we start with?” I asked. We had gathered for our first meeting in Amelia’s room. It was my first time entering another part of the house apart from Logan’s room, the library, and my own room. Amelia’s room carried the aura of a doctor. The medium-sized shelf consisting of all sorts of medical books was enough to give away that information. And there was also another rack carrying a medical box. I had scanned the surroundings in less than five minutes.“I think we should begin by sharing our insights on the root of the problem first, and then we can come up with a reasonable plan. What do you think, Amelia?” Sarah clarified, her eyes darting from me to Amelia.“You’re right. The root of the problem is simple: Father,” Amelia declared. Sarah and I nodded in agreement, acknowledging that she was right. What I appreciate about Amelia is her straightforwardness. She speaks her mind. It was evident when I first came to the house. She was straightforward

Amelia "Nurse Elena, I'm sure you guys would be able to handle the work without me. Doctor Jordan is there, isn't he?" I pointed out. Nurse Elena and I work together at the hospital. She had called to complain about the workload the head doctor was giving them. Normally, I was the one who always backed them up whenever Doctor Samuel, the head doctor, decided to let his demons show.The man is the epitome of rudeness. He snaps at every little thing. I don't blame him though, since the hospital belongs to his elder brother, so he thinks he can control the people around him. However, my case was different. I don't allow him to step on me or any other person from the higher-ups. I have been working at the hospital for three years straight with no rest. Now that I decided to cut myself some slack, they still didn't want to allow me. The only person that will snap at me and I would be okay with it, is Doctor Jordan. I'd call him my mentor because he had helped me in every possible way at t

OliviaI was confident in the plan we had laid out to get the men to go on the trip, but I didn’t expect it to happen so fast. What shocked me even more was that Mr. Nero was going to be among the people going on the trip. In short, we had a full house. That really warmed my heart in every possible way. It meant that all my efforts in the past to bring the family together weren't in vain. Maybe, time was what they needed.Preparations had already been made. Everyone had packed their bags, ready for the trip to Costa Rica, which we'd be leaving for in an hour or so. “Olivia, I need your help,” came Sarah’s voice as her head appeared through my door.“What kind of help? Come in.” I ushered her inside. We had gone shopping earlier in the morning. The number of outfits Sarah and Amelia had bought couldn’t be measured. It was as if they were going to be there for a month. I didn’t buy too many outfits myself, although Amelia and Sarah had convinced me to buy three sets of lingerie.I felt
