Revenge After Divorce Novel by Black Rose

OLIVIA

“Enough! If you want to be a father to your son, Nick. Then I suggest you start acting like one and stop blaming people for not being there for your son. Now we will not be arguing in front of Samuel, the boy has been through enough already.” His mother reprimanded looking angry. If there was one thing I liked about his mother.

It was that she did not take her son’s side when he was wrong, she told him off and didn’t have mercy while doing so. I didn’t even take the shower I was supposed to take, I just woke my son up and told him we are going home. “I am taking you home.” Marcus offered and I nodded.

“I will bring you all something to eat.” Ethan offered. “I am going to be the one taking them home.” Nick said but no one paid any attention to him. his sister sneered on the side and Nick glared at her. I could tell that those two will never get along, they already didn’t trust each other.

Marcus, Ethan and I walked out following each other. Nick’s mother ran and caught up with us. “Olivia, remember what I said. Be more careful now, not all who smile and laugh with you have good intentions. Keep your eyes open and I will talk to you as soon as I get the information.” I nodded and she gave me a sad smile before letting me go.

I wondered what she found that made her believe that I didn’t leak that

information when her son was convinced that I did it. Could it be that she knew

who was responsible or have a suspect in mind? “Hey, come back to me, where is your mind at?” Marcus snapped me out of my trace bringing me back. to reality.

We were already outside standing in front of the car. He has the door opened for me to get inside but I was just standing there lost in thoughts. “Are you alright, Olivia?” Ethan asked getting closer to us. “Yes, I am alright. I will tell you both about what am thinking when we get to the house. Right now, I just want to get my son home.”Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Ethen nodded going to his car which was parked next to Marcus and drove off telling us that he was going to get the food order from the hotel and meet us at my house. I got inside the car and Marcus drove off. “I thought you put someone on the house to protect us from Nick and his people.” I confronted him.

My son was taken right in front of the house, and I saw none of his people. coming out to help. “My people are there, and they got everything they did on camera. I told them not to act, if Nick didn’t give you Samuel back willingly. I was going to leak that video to the media and then help you take him to court. He was going to lose custody of his son because those morons used his marked cars, and they are under his employment.”

I couldn’t believe what he was saying, there I was thinking that he too failed me like Nick did. I thought he lied when he said he had people watching us and protecting us. I shouldn’t have doubted them. “I didn’t just want to protect you Olivia, but I want to have something tangible to use against Nick.”

He sighed running his hand through his head. “You told me that the man had connections, I wanted to have enough evidence that even his people wouldn’t be able to save him. That video was guarantee that you would win your son’s custody and Nick would never bother you about that again. We can still use it if he dared try something again.”

Nick ruined me to a point that I was suspicious of everyone, even the people. who were trying to help me. “I am sorry for doubting you, Marcus. It’s just that when they took Samuel, and no one showed up. I thought I was all alone and that I lost him.”

I might have thought I lost my son, but I was not going to roll over and let Nick take him. I was going to fight to get him back and I was willing to tell the world the most painful things that man did to me. I was ready to give Nick Jones the fight of his life. No one was going to take my son from me without a fight.

“It’s alright, I understand.” I was grateful to him; I really was but I wished he understood that I had changed. That I was no longer the naïve Olivia he knew. I was a changed woman, no one went to prison and came back the same. That placed changes you even without having people torture you every day because your husband told them to.

When we got home Lupita cried seeing Samuel back, Grandma Susan didn’t want to leave his side. While Lupita bathed him, grandma sat facing the bathroom and asked Lupita not to fully close the door so she could keep an eye on them.

When she put Samuel to bed grandma didn’t want to leave his room. I tried to convince her to get some rest, but she refused. She reminded me so much of my grandmother. She would have been the same as Grandma Susan, stubborn and relentless.

I took a shower and by the time I got out Ethan was back with the food. We sat on the table and ate. “I don’t trust Nick’s sister.” He said out of the blue. Both Marcus and I stopped eating and looked at him. “What? The woman is not just a call girl. She owns that club, and she had ties to the underground gang. I don’t trust her.”

I frowned, could it be that she really did something to my son? “The doctors found nothing wrong with Samuel and we can’t accuse her without proof. It doesn’t matter who she works with or where she works. She might be innocent. Come back with evidence I will believe you.” Ethan just shook his head and continued eating.

“Tell us, what was it that got you distracted at the hospital earlier. Did Nick’s mother say something to upset you?” I shook my head. “On the contrary, she said I should be careful, that not all who smile at me are my friends. She believes that someone is trying to frame me.”
