Chapter 50
NICK
She was pissing me off big time. She knew nothing of what was going on between Olivia and I. yet, she insisted on poking her nose where it doesn’t belong. “Stay out of this, you don’t know what is going on here and being a Jones for all of two minutes, doesn’t give you the right to involve yourself in my business. Stay on your lane.”Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
She laughed throwing her head back. “You are funny, little brother. I have not been a Jones for two minutes; I have been one all my life. Just because your mother prevented me from growing up as one doesn’t mean it just happened over night.”
“What, what do you mean by that?” father asked looking shocked. Mother on the other hand was glaring at Faren, while she couldn’t care less about the trouble she just caused. “Faren, tell me what you mean by that.” father asked his daughter, but she didn’t even spare him a glance, her eyes were fixed on me.
“Why don’t you ask your wife that.” she answered still looking at me. “I am not here for that, and you can go back to your family feud as soon as I get my son and get the hell out of here.” Olivia said pissing me off even more.” Do you think threatening me is the way to go, Olivia?” she looked at me with those icy eyes of hers.
That look was new to me, just what the hell happened to my wife? “Oh, I am not threatening you, Nick. You lost the right to that child the moment you sent me to jail and letting him be born there. If you want a child of your own, why don’t you go and make one with the woman you are living with and. leave mine alone.”
She was pissing me off to no end. How many times must I tell the woman that nothing was going on between Sandra and I. “Just because you keep insisting that there is something going on between Sandra and I. won’t make it true. That is my son, and you won’t keep him away from me, Olivia. I won’t let you.”
My sister tensed at the mention of Sandra and that made me wonder If she knew her or something. “I can make your life miserable Nick as much as you. have mine. You already think I am the one who did this right, so why not let me go out there and tell the world the kind of person you and your family are.”
“Olivia!” Mother looked so disappointed when she heard that, mother loved. Olivia more than anything. She was her saviour after all, and she put her at high regard. “I don’t want to do this mother, but as much as you love and would do anything for your son, including betraying people’s trust. So will I for my son.”
Mother didn’t say a word after that. “Olivia, your mother did nothing to you. I was the one who betrayed you and I would like for you to take your anger out on me not her. I was wrong child but as you said. A parent is blinded to everything when it comes to their children’s happiness and so was I when I did what I did. I am sorry.”
Olivia chuckled, it was like she didn’t hear a word father said, or she did but it meant nothing to her, she of all people should know that father apologises to no one and yet she was taking his apology as a joke. I was starting to hate what she stood for.
“I appreciate the apology father, I do but it will take time for me to trust this family again. Just because you own things and have the power to find out. everything and anything you want about people doesn’t mean you should use it. You took confidential information and used it because it was for your benefit. You didn’t care about me or what I wanted.”
I was really getting pissed. “Olivia, this is still my father, and you don’t get to speak to him that way.”
“It’s Okay, Nick and she is right. I had no right to use her information for my gain. Well for yours, it was unethical of me. I am sorry Olivia.” Fuck, who the hell did she think she was reducing my father into a begging man. James Jones begs no one for forgiveness. You take what he gives you and be content with it.
Who the hell did Olivia think she was taking his apology for granted like that.
“I don’t get why you are so angry. He didn’t tell me anything just that you had a child nothing more.” She glared at me. “I would appreciate it if you didn’t speak to me.”
I chuckled and I saw my sister leaving. Mother had been quiet the whole time not even looking at us. I didn’t like that she was sad. Olivia had no right to make them sad when they saved her ass and got her out of jail. “How about we call it even then Olivia. They got you out of jail and they gave me. that information as repayment for that. how about we leave it at that, and you never mention this again.”
She nodded. “Alright, Nick. If giving you my information without my permission was pay back for getting me out of jail, then fine. I will never bring this up again as long as I get to leave with my son right now and you won’t bother us after that.”
Before I could say anything, we heard a scream coming from the other room. I didn’t know Olivia could be that fast, the woman was out of the door in seconds while we were still looking at each other, she was gone. “Nick! Call an ambulance.” She yelled from the other room and that was when my parents and I snapped out of it and ran over there.
Olivia was on the floor with our son on her lap while my sister stood on the side. My son was unconscious, and his lips were turning blue. I took my phone and called an ambulance and explained how dire the situation was.
“What happened to my son?” I asked glaring at that woman who called herself my sister. “We were playing and the next second he struggled to breathe then he passed out.” Anger rose from the pit of my stomach. “Get the hell away from my son.”
“Nick?” I glared at father, my son was fine until she came over. “Not now father. She…”
“You all shut the hell up! My son is dying, and you are busy fighting?”
