After Olivia entered, a small smile tucked around Joshua's lips as he turned around and entered into the car too.As he took his place in the driver's seat, he glanced at Olivia for a few minutes, an expression of admiration at her beautiful face washing over his face.Olivia was looking away, unaware of the look that mounted on her, but when she noticed the hesitant moment movement in the car, she glanced at Joshua, who immediately looked away, fastening the seat belt around his shoulder.With that, he started the car, and the engine roared to life. He reversed from the parking lot and then took off from the compound to the road.Meanwhile, the cab that James had boarded, finally arrived in front of the said restaurant.“We've arrived at the restaurant,” the driver announced, stopping the car.James looked up and he could boldly see the name boldly written on a large boa

Chapter 23“Oh,” Thomas, James’ father replied, his voice almost apologetic, “just some minute and I'll be right there.” Meanwhile, on the road, inside the car. There was a moment of quietness as Joshua drove through the lovely street. As he drove, he occasionally glanced at Olivia who was busy looking outside through the window.Cool music was playing in the background, keeping the inside of the car a little bit lively. Although focused on the steering wheel, Joshua didn't fail to look at Olivia. As a result, he broke the silence in the car, “Olivia,” he called, and she turned to look at him.He continued, “What's going on in your mind? You've been quiet for quite a long time now. Can you tell me what the problem is?” He asked, his voice sounding concerned.Olivia took a deep breath, shifting slightly on her seat. She shook her head and reluctantly answered, “Nothing’s the problem. Thanks for your concern.” Joshua sighed, shaking his head, not satisfied with her reply. “But you do

Olivia's hand still tightened in his softly.The security guard decided to add, attempting to get some bucks from Joshua, “Your wife looks beautiful.

He didn't see that coming his way.Joshua looked at Olivia and swallowed hard. A bit of embarrassment was plastered on his face. He didn't say a word as he gestured at Olivia for them to go in.As they moved an inch away from
I Am Extremely Rich Chapter 1: Insults
Chapter One “What the fuck is still keeping you in the kitchen, you wretched bitch?!” A deep voice growled from the dining room causing the man in the kitchen to tremble in fear. It was Leonard Parker, James’ father-in-law. “I'm almost done, sir. I'll be there in a few minutes.” James Thomas’ heart skipped and raced heavily while responding politely. Leonard was a physique body-built man who always beat him up constantly, not because he had no strength, but because he showed him respect as his elder and, most especially, his father-in-law. “You better be fast with whatever you're doing, fool!” Leonard barked, settling comfortably on the chair in the dining area. He then sighed exasperatedly, letting his angry face slowly shift to that of concern. “Olivia?” He called out to his daughter, James’ wife, calmly. “How's the company going? Getting better?” He asked. Olivia let out a frustrating sigh and reluctantly nodded her head, “Yes, it's moving fine. I'm just putting in m
I Am Extremely Rich Chapter 2: Breakfast
Chapter 2 James paused and hesitatingly turned, his face burnt with shame and embarrassment. He narrowed his eyes on Olivia. Olivia purposely allowed him to stand there as she ate calmly without saying the reason for the call. James’ patience grew thin, his heart clenched while watching her. Evelyn couldn't endure it anymore so she snapped at Olivia, “You called him; why kept him waiting?” Her face was a bit of a frown. Olivia looked at her mother and replied coldly, “He has nothing doing so standing there isn't anything crime. It's part of exercise.” She mocked. Then she cleaned her mouth with a white tissue on the table. Taking a sip of the chilled glass of water on the table, she then addresses James, “I'll be leaving for the office soon with my black car.” She paused, observing James’ reaction. Seeing no fault, she added coldly, “I want you to get the white car washed because I'll make use of it tomorrow.” James stared at her in disbelief and his cheeks flushed with
I Am Extremely Rich Chapter 3: At The Interview Hall
Chapter 3 Evelyn sighed, looking at him, sincerely worried, “I overheard your discussion with Olivia. I'm just worried, this marriage might not last much longer. ” She said, blinking her eyes. James was silent, his face calm yet unyielding, “I understand your point, Mother, but it will.” He replied, shaking his head. “I love Olivia and deep down, I know she loves me too.” He said, firmly. Evelyn let out a relieved breath and reluctantly said, “Hmm…I pray so…” And walked away. As Evelyn walked away, James stood in silence for a moment, letting Evelyn's words linger. Then he remembered Olivia's car and with a deep sigh, he headed back outside to wash the car, his mind already turning to the day ahead. Ten minutes later, he had finished washing the car and he went to his room to take his bath. Entering the room, he shut the door behind him and headed to the bathroom after pulling off his clothes. Soon, he was out with a white thick towel wrapped around his waist, feeling ref
I Am Extremely Rich Chapter 4: About To Beat James
Chapter 4 The lady looked at the man, disbelief crossing her eyes, “Why? Why has he said so?” She asked, trying to get things clear. “I don't know his reason.” The man slightly shrugged his shoulders. “Just do as instructed if you still love your job.” With this, the man stormed out again. His conversation with the lady wasn't above a whisper which left all the applicants murmuring after he left. The lady's mind lingered on the man's words for some moment. Why had the boss just decided to cut off the interview all of a sudden? What could be the issue? She mumbled to herself, her brown eyes rolling around. She sighed frustratedly, torn apart. Hesitantly, she cleared her throat and drew everyone's attention to herself again. The room fell into silence again as she addressed them again with a sorry expression. “So, sorry everyone—” she began, “my Boss just arrived at the environment and had demanded the immediate stop of this interview. I'm sorry for the inconvenience this might
I Am Extremely Rich Chapter 5: James Meets His Father
Chapter 5The bodyguards instantly halted, obeying the last command of their boss. They all turned simultaneously, looking at their boss with confused gazes. Hearing that also, James paused, his shaking legs trying to get steady. He let out a deep and safe breath, trying to calm his already racing heart but he wasn't able to control it. It was still pondering too fast in fear.The onlookers’ expressions also changed from that of pities to that of surprises. Their expectations were twisted.Meanwhile, as everyone wore surprise expressions, the old man moved forward with grace. Each of his steps is screaming wealth.

Chapter 21: James Discusses With the Driver
Chapter 21At that same time, still on the road, the driver, keeping his focused attention on the road, asked, sighting James at the back through the rearview mirror, “What happened? Is she asking for a divorce?” He asked.James shook his head, “No, but a divorce would have been better than living with her this way. She’s grown so cold that I don't get to understand her anymore. I keep trying my best to get her attention and make her feel loved, but all I get is disappointment in return.” He answered, his voice filled with frustration.The driver listened carefully, feeling his frustration. James paused and continued, “I feel like giving up on this marriage, for real.” His shoulder slumped and his face turned pale.Once he was done talking, the driver took a deep breath, sighing heavily with sympathy before he began thoughtfully, “I understand your pain, son. Challenges in life are sometimes like this. Not favorable as we thought it would be. But thinking about divorcing her should b
Chapter 20: Olivia Goes on a Dinner Night With Joshua
Chapter 20Olivia’s breath caught, her fingers tightening around the fabric of her dress as she looked at her mother with disbelief, “Mom, are you trying to chase away your guest just because you don't like him?” She asked, “And what has he ever done to you to dislike him this much?” “Same way you dislike James to the core when he has done nothing to you, Olivia.” Evelyn said, “Can’t you see how much James cares for you? Why are you too blind to see that? How could you even think of letting Joshua say those flirtatious words to you in front of James without objecting to it? Tell me. Don't you know it hurts? Didn't you perceive his—?” “Please, stop it already, Mom,” Olivia interjected, frowning. She swallowed hard and shook her head, “If this conversation is all about James, then, sorry, I'm done.” Without waiting for any response, Olivia walked away leaving Evelyn to stand there alone.Evelyn shook her head, displeased, “She's grown too stubborn. Grandma and Leonard are all part of
Chapter 19: Evelyn Talks to Olivia
Chapter 19James slowly halted in his steps, sighing deeply as he turned back. Evelyn approached him, “James, where are you going to?” She asked softly, “Or are you upset with what just happened back inside?” James chucked, his expression softening, “Upset? No, I'm not. It's her life to live and I have no say in it. She should go ahead and do whatever that pleases her.” He replied calmly but his tone betrayed his frustration.Evelyn shook her head, perceiving his frustration. She sympathized “I know it is painful; that's why I'm pleading that you forgive her; please, forgive, and don't take it to heart.” “She has not in any way offended me. She has her life to live. And it's fine by me. I have no problem with the way she wants to live her life,” James answered, looking away and trying to hide his feelings at that moment.Evelyn placed her hand on his shoulder, not satisfied with his response, “You may try to hide your feelings right now, James but I know how bad you feel watching t
Chapter 18: Joshua Arthur Arrives
Chapter 18 James turned, his face was a mixture of irritation and anger. He looked at Joshua with his well-fitted and rich outfit but he didn't care. He wondered what he was doing there but then remembered that Olivia talked about Joshua taking her out for a dinner night. He slightly checked his watch, and it was already 5pm, not up to 9pm, suitable for a dinner night. James' hoha expression deepened as he looked at Joshua and said, “And who are you to interfere in our family affairs? What right do you have to do that?” Joshua smirked, adjusting his collar, “I have every right whatsoever to do so! Face it, James. You don’t belong in Olivia’s world. You have nothing to offer. Both to her and her family.” He said and added, clearly irritated, “with what I got, you're nothing but a leech living off their little wealth with no positive contribution whatsoever to the family!” Grandma Aurora nodded her head by the side, affirming, “Yes, he is! Always sitting at home doing not
Chapter 17: Joshua Arthur visits
Chapter 17James nodded his head with a smile and answered, “Yes, I am. Going to check out on something but I will be back in just few hours. Won't take that long.” He adjusted his shirt, making it look perfectly on him as he glanced at the mirror that was hung on the wall.Olivia frowned her face with contempt, “I never asked you when you'll be coming back home. I have no business with that.” She said, her voice harsh and annoying. “There’s literally nothing you do at home.” She added and her word cut through James' heart.James stared at her with disbelief and he couldn't say anything. Olivia let out a sigh and silently walked to the bed and lay down comfortably on it with her laptop already placed on it.Meanwhile, at the four corners of the wall of Parker's manor, a sleek black Range Rover pulled into the compound with a noiseless sound. The exterior looks of the car only was a center of attraction and attention. Just then the car pulled up and came to a stop at the parking lot
Chapter 16: The Family Eats
Chapter 16“Don't worry, I'll text you the location. And please, don't hesitate to come, I have something important that I want to show you.” Thomas replied.James stared at the phone's screen in confusion. Something important? He mumbled before replying, “Okay, Dad. I'll be there.” Meanwhile, in the dining room, there were moments of silence as the clinking of spoons echoed in the room against the metal plates. Everyone seemed to be really enjoying the meal. The silence lingered for a moment, not until Olivia's phone vibrated and began to ring, disrupting the hushed moment. Everyone paused, all gazes fixed on her.Olivia dropped her spoon and wiped her mouth before retrieving her phone from the table. Glancing at the phone's screen and seeing who was calling, she hesitated, looking at everyone.Letting out a deep breath, she picked up the call, her voice moderately calm, “Hello, Mr. Joshua.”Immediately she said that Grandma Aurora's face lit with excitement, knowing who Olivia was
