OLIVIA'S REJJECTION 24
“We have called Denise house, and his security man said he came around, changed his wears, picked his belongings and left.”“Left for where, please?” Nichole asked amidst tears.“Mom, calm down, please,” Julie, who just heard that Freya had contacted Denise, staff members advised. Then, Arthur looked at his distressed daughters and lover with empathy and advised as he stood up.“It had been a hectic day for all of you. I think you all should rest. Phil, kindly come with me.”Then, Nichole anxiously inquired, “Where are you going?”Nevertheless, he gave her a perfunctory response, “To look for our son.”He walked to his study while Phil followed him. After they took their seats, Arthur gave Dr. Quain a call. He suspected that Louis could have been involved in an accident, and the shock made his phone to fall off his hand. When the call connected, the doctor greeted.“Hello, boss. Good to hear from you.”He ignored the formalities and went straight to the point, “Dr. Quain, is there any

“All, right. You can go on, I will join you soon.”She announced, and smiled as she tried to walk back to the kitchen.“We will wait,” came the incongruous voice of Mr. Bailey. She walked to the kitchen, walked back immediately and against her wish, she took her seat on the only available seat. They had their meal silently on the surface but under the table, Mr. Bailey's legs would not allow her legs to rest. She maintained her cool and ate cheerfully while Mr. Bailey rubbed her legs with his. All the same, he kept his promise and fed Daniel alongside his mother. Before now, Nichole would have been elated with Mr. Bailey's love advances when she was desperately flirting around him. Now, she had lost interest and replaced the love she had for him with detestation.At Sevenoaks, Bailey International Conglomerates ClinicDr. Quain returned to Sevenoaks Clinic after he excused himself from the marriage ceremony. He could not concentrate on anything apart from how to get Mr. Louis, either

“Did you remember those days when I was courting you?”“Oh! Yes, I remember. What about it?”“That is how father feels about Mom right now.”“Phil, Are you real?”“Just watch out. Otherwise, why does he wish to have lunch at her place? Does he not have food at his house?”“I'm not seeing it that way.”They got off the car, Phil picked Daniel from the back seat, and they headed for the house.At Louis Bailey's Suite. Cairo.It was 8:35 pm, six and half hours after he boarded the flight from London to Cairo and about nine hours after he left the registry.

Guilt because he gave room for Olivia to leave his life and curiosity – how did she end up as Denise's wife and decided to give him his baby?At that moment, his team members got in to welcome him back. He was delighted to have them because he did not wish to be alone. Then, ushered them in with a plastic smile.“Kindly come in,” he said af

Then, he sent a message that is more officious than romantic to his new-found love.(Nichole. We are leaving by 6 am. I will like you to put on fitted jeans and body hug turtleneck. I prefer bright colors, please. Arthur.)After he sent the message, he called Louis line, but it was still not reachable. “What could be the cause of Louis's behavior?”He thought for a while before he switched off his light and went to sleep.After he sent the message, he called to Louis line, but it was still not reachable. “What could be the cause of Louis's behavior?”He thought for a while before he switched off his light and went to sleep.At Mrs. Bailey's ApartmentShe was still holding her phone after she called Louis, wondering what could be responsible for his behavior when a message hit her phone.(Ding)She read through her message and the only thing she could say was.“Cow!”She turned off her light and went to sleep.In The Morning.At 5 am, she was already up and began to prepare for the t

'If she could not wait for me, is it my call that she would pick?' he asked himself.To be stable and think properly of his next action, he took a seat, on the chair she sat before. His thoughts went back to the days when Nichole was dotting on him and would overlook his faults, but he ignored her. That day, he was the one to be ignored by her.'Could she be seeing another man? That would be murderous because I cannot withstand it,' he pondered. The thought that she could be with another man in the Airport disorganized him. He began to walk around and asked questions, hoping that she could be in the office of one of the higher ups. Then, he inquired from the middle-aged man who sat next to him.“Excuse me please.”“Yes, how may I help you?”“Do you by any means see the woman who sat here a few minutes ago?”“Yes. That pretty lady. I saw her leave the lobby,” the man informed. Now, Arthur felt some butterflies in his stomach again when he saw the lustful look on the man's face when he

At Arthur's Office.While he was patiently waiting for Nichole's reply to his message, his secretary informed him that he had some guests.'Why now?' He mumbled before he responded.“Let them in, please.”From that moment, the visitors coming to congratulate him over the success of the son's marriage ceremony became endless.“Congratulations, Mr. Bailey.”“Thank you. I appreciate.”He responded with a divided attention because he took a quick peep at his phone at intervals while the guests came and left. Soon, the message alert came.(Arthur, I wish to let you know that I am glad that you are back. We cannot have dinner at my apartment tonight because I don't have food. Nichole.)Arthur forgot that he had visitors before him and smiled before he let out.“Silly girl. At least, her reply is better than not replying at all.”“I beg your pardon, Mr. Bailey, are you talking to me?” The guests in front of him asked. Nevertheless, Mr. Bailey gave a fleeting response while replying to her me

He smiled at Nichole, who smiled back too. To make their visit look like a planned one, Nichole had to pretend by asking Arthur, “You are here? Did you get what you went to buy?”“No” he gave an absent-minded response and walked to the couch and sat down. Subsequently, Nichole continued with her meal while Louis pleaded before leaving the suite.“Father, I’m glad that you are here. Kindly keep Mom company. I will be back.”He was confident that his father would grant his request, and left without waiting for his opinion. To his expectation, Arthur replied.“All right son.”Now, Nichole stared daggers at him while he adjusted his tie and rested his head on the couch. Meanwhile, Nichole, who thought it was a coincidence that Arthur was here to look for his son, was not aware that her daughter, and her husband, snitched on her. After they got off call with her, Phil called on Arthur and inquired.“Hello, Phil. Good to have you on the line,” Arthur responded“Hello father. I am just check

Thereupon, Nichole strolled around the arena just to while away time. As usual, she observed the lustful look from the men around. At that instance, she hated herself for having eyes for only Arthur since her husband died. Later on, she returned to their boot and spent some time chatting with them, which gave her the privilege of studying the caliber of staff working with her son. When they were done for the day, she closed with them.“Have a nice evening,” she said, and the team members closed for the day.“We wish you the same, Mrs. Bailey,” they responded, and retired for the evening to their rooms while she returned to the suite with Louis.“You have a wonderful team, Louis,” she commended.“Wow! You are very observant, mom. I am blessed with a great team.”She walked back with Louis, who was aware that the evening would be a moment of intense discussions to his suite. Then, Arthur who was through with his meal and had settled down to watch the television greeted, “Welcome back, S

A few Weeks Later at the IslandMr. Denise and his wife, had bonded together just the way Denise loved it. Olivia was no longer crying about her past because she had seen love in another form and could not ask for anything more. They looked more beautiful and handsome than they were before they moved to the island. Their skin complexion was healthy. Now, Denise had added some flesh, which could be attributed to peace of mind and a sense of accomplishment.“Wifey. Congratulations on our one-month wedding anniversary. I'm proud to be your husband.”Denise greeted his wife as he woke up that morning. Olivia, who had also put on weight and was looking chubby, smiled and returned the compliment.“Congratulations to us.

For thirty days, you have been …”“Stop. I got it. Does it make one chubby?”“Let's see what happens

Now, his father looked at Nichole with a pleading face and pleaded in a low tone, “Nichole, please, don't make me wait for too long.”Mr. Bailey had come to realize that it was only the children who bond them together, so this was an opportunity to talk to her. Nichole simply stood up and walked back to her seat without response.Then, Louis had freshened up and joined them in the parlor. They stood up while Mr. Bailey picked his car keys, they walked to the courtyard, after they got into the car, he drove to the spot where Nichole usually take them to for outing when they were younger. Louis remembered the old days when nothing bothered him. He walked around buying all sorts of delicacies for himself and the entire family. His parents sat down at a table as other couples with their drinks while waiting for him. Then, Arthur resumed his toasting of Nichole as he looked into her eyes and called out, “Nichole.”She was startled when he called out her name. She thought that what he had t
