Revenge After Divorce Novel by Black Rose

NICK

I thought I could hold it in a little while longer, keep pretending to like her but when she mentioned being angry with Olivia. I couldn't hold it in anymore. Who the hell did she think she was? She couldn't even compare to Olivia.

Yes, her grandmother died, but that was not Olivia's fault. That was what she kept telling her as well but now she was changing and blaming her. I couldn't accept that. I didn't get what she wanted from Olivia.

I knew for a fact that she wanted to go and visit her. it might have been Luke or Marcus who stopped her from going there. I took out my phone and made a call to one of Luke's men. "Mr Jones." he answered.

"Keep an eye on the nanny, she is in the old house. Anything out of the ordinary, contact me." I cut the call. I didn't want to wake up when it was already too late with Lupita. If she was going to be a threat, then I would have her removed before she could do damage.

My phone vibrated in my hand and Ethan's name flashed on the screen. Oh, now he wasn't scared of me, the moron. "Ethan?"

"Where are you?"

"You know where I am, let's not pretend like you are not keeping tabs on me." silence followed, I wondered when he was going to get over that fear nonsense. "Don't come to the office today." I frowned.

If I didn't go my mother was going to nag me again. She wanted me to focus on business again, I got where she was coming from, and I didn't want her to stress or worry about me. so, I agreed to start today.

I went to Lupita to take her to the office with me, but she ruined it. "Why?"

"If you are coming then tell me in advance so I can leave." He was at the

company, something must have been wrong, or he went to update our systems. "Okay." I cut the call.

I wasn't going to tell him shit, he needed to get over himself and get used to having me around. I was lonely while he was busy being scared for no reason.

People like Lupita were the ones who made people like me appear to be monsters when they were the ones who brought out the monster in us. I was nice to her, but she didn't appreciate that.

She wanted more and I couldn't give her that. how naïve could she be to think I would even look at her when she knew exactly that my heart belonged to Olivia?

Accepting that she would never be mine again didn't mean I would suddenly fall for her. Luke knew that. I was sure Ethan knew it as well; he just kept his mouth shut to see how far I was going to take that thing with her.

Unfortunately, she ruined it all. I parked in front of the company and walked inside. Everyone was busy going about their business. It felt strange being there again after such a long time. I was used to our offices in Summer Strand.

"Mr Jones! welcome, sir." The receptionist was the first to spot me and everyone turned to look. then they scattered. I still got it! I smirked as I walked to the

elevator. 'Sorry Ethan, you will have to face me today.'

I got into the elevator whistling, it had been a while since I last saw him, he avoided me like a plague. Well, not today. I smirked.noveldrama

The elevator pinged and I got out and headed to my office. "Don't forget to tell me when he arrives, keep him at her desk until I get out." That was Ethan talking to my secretary. Too late, my dear friend. Am already here.

I opened the door and they both looked. Ethan paled and I smiled. He was being

funny. "Good morning, you, get me some coffee." My secretary quickly walked out, and I was left with my terrified looking best friend.

I stood a few feet from the desk; he

was sitting on my chair. "Hello Ethan, long time, my friend." He said nothing just looking at me. I sighed; I missed hanging out with him. the whole thing had to stop I was getting lonely.

"What do you want me to do for you to stop this?" it was like my words brought him back from the dead. "Go see a therapist, in fact, I will go with you just to make sure you attend all your sessions."

I nodded, I didn't care, I would do it that would also make Olivia and Marcus trust

me more as well if I went. "Make the booking." He squinted his eyes looking at me. he must have thought I was joking.

"Make the booking, Ethan. If going

means I will regain your trust, then I will go. I just want my friend back. He actually took his phone and made the booking on my behave. "Since when do you have therapist's numbers on your phone?"

He shrugged, "Since I started a killer for a best friend." We heard a shuttering noise behind me, and I turned. My secretary had dropped the tray she was carrying with my coffee and muffins. She still knew what I liked.

"Oh Gill, you know your boss is not a killer." I turned to Ethan. "You should stop with this dark humour of yours, it's not funny to other people and I like Gill here, I don't want to lose her over nothing."

Ethan quickly apologised, I knew he didn't mean it. "Leave it Gill, just get the janitor to come. You can go and get some fresh air.”

"Thank you, Mr Jones." she quickly walked out. I looked at Ethan and he shrugged. "Don't look at me like that, you are a killer and that is why I am scared

to death of you now." wow! He was never going to let it go.

"I already agreed to go to therapy, what else do you want from me?" he just stared

at me as if he were looking at a stranger.
