Chapter 51

Lucious POV:Something wasn’t right, but I didn’t want to say it out loud because of Olivia.I watched Lia consciously, as she held on to Olivia.She sat across from us in the car, with her hands folded neatly on her lap now.My fingers tapped lightly against my thigh because I was settled.Olivia was beside her, still all kind and soft and that worried me more than anything.“You okay?” Olivia asked gently, brushing her thumb over Lia’s knuckles.Lia nodded quickly. “Yes… I just… I don’t like cars much.”Her breathing became steady, no trembling.I leaned back slightly, with my gaze fixed on the road ahead, but my attention… was fully on her.“Driver,” I said calmly. “Take the longer route.”Olivia turned slightly. “Why?”“Just in case we’re being followed.” I said firmly.Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Lia glance briefly at the side mirror.My jaw tightened slightly.Yeah… something wasn’t right.We got to the penthouse twenty minutes later and the moment we stepped out, the gua

Chapter 52

Luscious POV:It had been two days since Lia stayed at home.It was two days of distance and meetings I didn’t need to attend and of course days of deliberately not being in the same room with Lia Matrami unless it was absolutely necessary.I stood by the window in the living room, with a book in my hand, though I hadn’t turned a page in the last ten minutes as my mind wasn’t even on the book. I was really very suspicious about Lia and I was cautious enough not to be around her.Footsteps approached softly behind me.“Good morning,” Olivia’s voice came in warmly.I closed the book slowly before turning to her. She looked relaxed and that worried me more than anything.“Morning,” I replied.She studied my face for a moment before stepping closer. “Are you alright?”I tilted my head slightly. “I should be asking you that.”She smiled faintly. “I’m serious, Lucious. About Lia… are you okay with everything?”Then, I held her gaze for a second longer than necessary.“It’s fine,” I said cal

Lucious’ POV:My grip tightened instantly around her wrist as I pulled her hand away from me with my eyes locking onto hers.“What exactly are you doing?” I asked firmly. I was really irritated now.She blinked up at me in surprise and I could see confusion written all over her face and that would have fooled anyone else but not me.“What do you mean?” she asked softly. “I’m not doing anything to you.”I let out a quiet, humorless breath.“Listen to me carefully,” I said, leaning slightly closer to her. “I am not in the mood for games.”“I don’t know what you think you’re doing here,” I continued, “but I’ve been suspicious of you from the moment you walked into this house.”Her fingers twitched slightly beneath my grip as she struggled to pull away.“If you think you can play whatever this is on me…” my jaw tightened, “…then you’ve chosen the wrong person.”“I could have you removed from this house and killed right now,” I added coldly. “And nobody would even question it.”Then I saw

Chapter 54

Lucious POV:Olivia was curled up on the couch, with her legs tucked beneath her, and her attention was half on the book in her hands and probably half on me. I could tell she always watched me even when she pretended not to.I stood across from her, with my arms folded.This was the moment I had to tell her about Lia.“Olivia,” I said.She looked up immediately. “Hmm?”I took a step closer. “There’s something I need to tell you.”Her brows lifted slightly, with curiosity written across her face. “You sound serious.”“I am.”I exhaled slowly, choosing my words carefully. “It’s about Lia.”Then suddenly, I heard a familiar voice. “Olivia…”We both turned. It was as if it was perfectly timed.Lia stood at the hallway entrance, with one hand pressed lightly against her temple, like she was hurting.“I’m sorry,” she said quietly. “I didn’t mean to interrupt, but… I’m not feeling well again.”Olivia was already on her feet before I could even react.“What’s wrong?” she asked, rushing over
