OLIVIA

It has been a month since my divorce finalized and a month since I last saw Nick. Marcus told me that he moved to Summer Strand. That was good that he told someone this time and didn’t just disappear. I didn’t want to be harassed by the police again over him disappearing without a word to anyone.

Today is my wedding day. But this time we didn’t want all the fuss, we are going in front of a judge and getting it done. Then we are leaving for our honeymoon. Am excited about it. A knock came to my door, I was busy fixing my hair. We only had a few minutes before we had to meet Marcus in court.

I invited the person in and Lupita walked in. “You look beautiful.” I smiled. The dress really was breathtaking. I could compromise and get married in court but not on my dress. This was still my wedding day. “Thank you, Lupita. Is it time already?” I frowned turning to look at the clock hanging on the wall.

“No, but there is someone here to see you.” she didn’t seem comfortable when she said that, and I wondered who the hell could it be. I didn’t want any issues this time around and I didn’t want anyone ruining my wedding with Marcus a second time.

“I think it’s going to be okay this time.” She said then walked out without telling me who it was who wanted to see me. a minute later Elodie walked in. I sighed and sat down. Nothing good ever came with me meeting Elodie. She hated me now and only wanted to insult me every time she saw me.

Why would Lupita let her in here. “I am not here to fight or to insult you. I just want to talk.” I furrowed my eyebrows. That was new and surprising. “Imean it Olivia. I don’t want to fight; I don’t think I have any fight left in me now.” I sighed and gestured to the chair next to my dressing table.

She took a seat. “You look beautiful in that dress.” She complimented and I frowned. This had got to be a trick. “ Marcus is a lucky man.” Okay, someone please tell me what the fuck is going on. She sighed. “Olivia, I came to apologize for my part in everything that happened.”

Okay, definitely a prank. Elodie would never apologize to me. “I know it’s shocking but this whole thing caused me to lose my husband and my son. Nick doesn’t want to set foot in New Village anymore and keeps saying he is not ready. It doesn’t take a genius to know why.”

I wondered what that got to do with me, I had a wedding to get to and had no time to be entertaining whatever that was. “We used to get along very well you and i. that was until I became your typical mother–in–law and hated you for things you had no control over.” Okay, maybe it was not a prank but why do this now?

“You were good for Nick, even though he went and messed it up in the end and I played my role as well in making things worse. Am sorry, Olivia. I wish I could go back and change how I dealt with things. But losing James and having the Black family coming back into my life just turned everything upside down.”

I sighed taking a seat on the bed, it was clear that she was going to be long. “You don’t have to seat; I know you have a wedding to get to. I hope Marcus makes you happy, you truly deserve it. as much as I wish you and Nick can get back together, I know it will never happen.” She stood and took her bag.

“I do hope that everything works out for you.” she offered me a smile before walking out leaving me confused and relieved at the same time. Lupita came back inside. “If you still want to marry that man then it’s time to leave.”

I stood and we walked out following each other. I couldn’t stop thinking about Elodie and what she said. I wondered what the hell made her come to me today of all days. Was she planning something? “How is the security in the car with Samuel?” he was driving with Ethan. “It’s sufficient, you know how Ethan is where Samuel is

concerned.” noveldrama

I nodded. “Do you think she will try something?” I shrugged. “I don’t know, she apologized but the events of the

past makes me suspicious of everything to do with that family. She might seem sincere, but you can never know.” Lupita said nothing. When we got to court, I looked outside for anything suspicious before getting out.

Luke was there as well so, I felt a little safe. But my heart was not at ease. The Jones family was unpredictable to say the least. We went inside and saw Marcus. He looked nervous and yet we were doing this for the second time. I laughed.

But everything went well. We went before a judge and got married. Then went out to have a family lunch. Marcus booked the whole restaurant for us. He said he didn’t want strangers on our wedding day. Only friends and family. His uncle came and has been giving me looks the whole time.

I didn’t care about him, he meant nothing to me and after the wedding. I won’t see him again and I was good with that. “Olivia.” I cringed, why did I have to think about him. talk of the devil. I turned and plastered a smile on my face.

“How does it feel?” he asked, and I frowned. “How does what feel?” he chuckled pretending like we were getting along and having fun. The bastard. “Getting everything you ever wanted.” My smile widened and his fluttered.

“It feels good. Marcus is a good man, and I am lucky to have him in my life.” He laughed out loud that Marcus glanced our way and raised an eyebrow. I just smiled at him trying to tell him that I was alright. “Oh, you little bitch. You do know I am going to get you for the shit you caused. If I lose everything, I own because of you, rest assured that I will be coming for you.” he said that between his teeth.
