Lahat ng Kabanata ng Divorced To Steal His Heart : Kabanata 121 - Kabanata 130

Opening my eyes, her deep fragrance alone was enough for me to know that it was her.“What are you doing here?” Frustrated, I tried to keep my voice low.What's she doing in my bed?Is she out of her mind?What's she doing in my house in the first place?“Honey, I don't understand…” Jessica sat up beside me, looking very confused.I wonder what I'd said wrong or which word I'd mispronounced.“Where else am I supposed to sleep if not here?” She continued. “Come on, stop scaring me, Honey. I thought-”“Stop calling me that.” I also sat up, annoyed by the fact that she was acting oblivious.Her puzzled look confused me. Does she think this is okay?“I- I should stop calling you that?” Jessica stammered, staring at me in disbelief. “Why? Aren't we married? Aren't we a couple?”Does she even listen to herself?I was right in thinking something was wrong with her by the way she acted carefreely.When did we get married?“Come on, stop scaring me.” Jessica clasped my arm, her eyes welling up

Smiling brightly, she lifted her head from my chest and sat up. “Sorry, I slept off in the living room. I couldn't join you last night.”She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and blushed. “The party took over me, I guess.”Not really.Doesn't she recall a thing?I sat up, frowning in confusion as her innocent eyes wandered across the room. They widened in shock, and she gasped, covering her mouth. “Who did this, Honey? Why's the room a mess? Did you get drunk last night?”I followed her gaze to the broken lamps and torn curtains.A conflicted feeling hit me instantly, leaving me in utter disbelief.I sighed, shoved away the bedsheet, and entered the bathroom.I took a long time under the shower, trying to collect my thoughts.My confusion is no more, and my mind is now troubled.How long will it take for her to recover?Is there really no other way as the Doctor had said?No!I can't just believe him.There are great neurologists out there that I can reach out to. They'll defini

How strange and unfortunate that I didn't realize it at that time despite my mother insisting.She'd seen the resemblance while I never did until it was too late.Well, is it worth reminiscing right now? Knowing that I couldn't reveal this truth to my mother now because she'd only dig deeper and potentially hurt Olivia, I should keep acting oblivious.After all, she never hid her hatred for her, and if she knew that Dave was Olivia's son, I'm not sure what her reaction might be despite knowing it's not going to be a good one. “You worry too much. Dave has left with his parents,” I answered her before walking away.Thank goodness she didn't follow me or stall me any further.As I sat in the backseat of my car while the driver drove me to the company, I brought out my phone.It's not going to be easy to find Olivia now that she'd left her apartment.I can't go back to Geneva and start from scratch again. I need leverage. How else can I make her admit it?Before I dialed a number, my g

…Geneva, Switzerland. Olivia’s POVIt has been three days ever since Theo stirred up that drama at Prof. Joanne’s place. Three days ever since he last stalked us. But instead of feeling relieved, I can't overlook the slight worry creeping up inside my heart whenever I think about him.I have this feeling that Theo won’t give up easily. Maybe something urgent had called him back to L.A. Maybe he was busy with the company’s affairs.Or maybe he was up to something, probably getting prepared to overthrow my decision.No way!Shaking my head, I shoved that thought aside despite it being at the back of my mind always.Has Theo gone back to level up his tricks in order to overthrow me easily?One cannot tell,But I have to be positive. Today is a very important day, after all. I’ll resume work at the hospital, and I have to be in a good, positive mood. After getting ready, I grabbed my bag and left the bedroom, heading downstairs and hoping Dave was at least watching TV.Funny how so

Oh, no!I can recall telling that to Bonnie through the phone.Knowing that it’s important I revealed Dave’s true identity to her, I wanted to give her a heads up, not knowing that she would take it so seriously and even come to Geneva for it. Can I tell her about it now?“Oh, I’m so famished.” She released me from the hug. “I can’t wait to hear whatever you want to tell me. It must be a surprise, and that’s why you could say it through the phone.”Not really.It’s a surprise indeed, but not an exciting one.I helped Bonnie transfer her bags to the extra room, unease settling on my chest.Now that she’s here in person, there’s no escaping it.I’d wanted to bid myself some time. Well, there’s no going back.I came out and didn’t find her in the living room. Listening to the sounds coming from the kitchen, I followed that direction.Bonnie turned the stove off and brought down the pot, opening the lid to let the steam out.She went ahead to serve lunch, her movement swift and smooth in
