All Chapters of You lost me, Now you'll lose everything. : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

CHAPTER 1. OLIVER'S POV. At twenty-three, I feel like I’ve achieved everything I ever wanted in life. Ever since I was twelve, I knew my dreams, to marry Lucas, the love of my life, and start a family with him while becoming the heiress to my family’s whole conglomerate and law firms. Peeking through the window, a wide grin spread across my face as I made eye contact with the dedicated workers down the hall. They were busy decorating for my big day tomorrow. I was about to kill two birds with one stone: I could not wait to become the heiress of my family’s empire and also Lucas' wife. I felt an urge to run around, my excitement was overwhelming. I had waited for this day my entire life. Quickly dressing in something casual, I walked out of my room. I realized I hadn’t seen my fiancé in the last twelve hours, so I decided to give him a call. The phone rang five times before he picked up. “Hey, soon-to-be wife,” he greeted softly, making me blush. “Are you missing me already?” he a

CHAPTER 3 Five Years Later. It's been exactly five years since I walked out of my family home and flew down to Italy with a man I barely knew and a child I knew wasn't his. But look how time flies! It's been five years now, and I can't believe that I'm back in New York with my son, Jaden. Five years ago, I didn't just leave home,I left my hometown entirely and everything it had given me over the years. Now, I was going back—not because I had any desire to confront my past or to see my ex-fiancé or my father, but because it was time to chase my dreams, and I also wanted to show Jaden my family when the time is due.He deserves something real, especially since his whole existence has been a lie regarding who he thinks is his father. “Mommy, !” I push the cart around the mall as I watch my four-year-old son cheer me on. I just smile and caress his head as we continue while he squeals in delight. “Okay, Jaden, we are done here for today,” I said, and he kicked and wiggled as I pushed

CHAPTER 5 OLIVIA POV I'm sure he's one of their lap dogs, doing whatever he's told the moment they bark orders at him. I can't risk it. I can't risk him coming back here with Samantha or Lucas, knowing I have a child. They'd do the math in the blink of an eye. That would only let Alessandro learn about the part of my life he doesn't know, and I pray he never finds out. A few minutes later, Jaden and his nanny, Jane, returned, and he quickly rushed over to me. “Mommy?” he called out sweetly. “I bought you this.” He stretched out his hand and handed me one of his chocolates. I couldn't help but smile as I gently cradled his head. I watched him happily jog back to Jane while I continued my apartment hunt. I swiped through pictures, looking for the best place—one with a playground where Jaden could play. Once I found it, I quickly emailed the realtor, who sent me photos of the apartment I wanted. Without hesitation, I made the payment and began packing. When I entered Jaden’s room

CHAPTER 6 OLIVIA POV. “I can't promise that for sure,” he said. “I mean, I haven't seen you in ages, and you expect me to be professional?” “Come on, Livie,” he urged in a low tone, but once he looked at my face and noticed I wasn't feeling his jokes, he sat up. “Okay, fine. I promise I will try my best to be very, very professional,” he said. I nodded and released a sigh. That was all I wanted to hear. I just needed to know that he wouldn't try to ruin this internship for me. This is my career, and even Alessandro doesn't know about it. I didn't bother to tell him that he has a lot on his plate already. “Is that all you want?” Williams asked out of the blue, and I nodded. Yes, that was all I wanted from him. I needed him to stay far away from me, and I hoped he would be able to keep this very professional so people wouldn't start to talk. In this line of work, it's easier to tear down than to build up. Any little link-up, and I'm sure everyone will attribute my hard work to h

CHAPTER 9 OLIVIA'S POV For a moment, I chose to believe she didn’t just ask me that. Coming back to the company? I couldn’t help but chuckle inwardly at the question. They now have everything they ever wanted, so I wondered why they suddenly cared about me coming back. I was still trying to understand why they were suddenly over the moon about my return. “Sam,” I called out to her with a straight face, “I’m not coming back to the company. Y’all can have it, dear. I check the news, and I see you’re really doing a fantastic job as the CEO. Keep it up, sis,” I said in a sarcastic tone. And she smiled. “Thank you, sis, but…” “No buts, Samantha,” I interjected. “I have somewhere I really need to be right now. I don’t have time to continue this conversation.” “Sis, I understand you might be in a hurry, but can’t we fix a date and catch up? Sisters do catch up, right?” I flashed her a small smile. “Of course, sis. We will catch up some other time, dear. Keep up the good work.” Samant
