Chapter 29

Meanwhile, as they drove back home, Joshua rubbed his pale face in frustration. “How dare he come there and cause trouble?” He ranted, rubbing his nose. “Did you tell him we were going there?” He turned to Olivia and asked.

Olivia, who wore a surprised and shocking expression, reluctantly shook her head sideways. She folded her arms, “No, I didn't. I was surprised to see him there as well.”

Joshua looked at her, confused but believed her. “I'm very sure he was there to wash dishes to earn some bucks.” He said with sharp sarcasm. “Or perhaps to beg for bucks.” He paused.

“Olivia, isn't this becoming obvious that James is just trying to bring shame and disgrace to your family?” He asked, attempting to add Olivia's already frustrated state.

Olivia only let out a frustrated sigh. Her face was coated with anger.

“It's self-explanatory,” Joshua continued, “that guy has no shame and he's trying to get your family involved. What would people say if they found out you're still kee

    Chapter 30 As James opened the door, everyone got distracted and quickly turned to see who it was. It was James. Grandma Aurora, who was already furious, glared at her, a dark scar formed in her eyes. She just felt like walking to him and squeezing life out of him. She hated his existence now more than ever. Leonard, still standing, released a daggering gaze at him. If a look could instantly kill, James would have been a dead being at that instant moment. Meanwhile, Evelyn's worried face was now replaced with a smile yet looking surprised. In fact, everyone in the room was shocked to see him because Olivia had told them what had happened to him. Olivia was too. How, then, did he manage to get out of there? They pondered on this, their hearts reeling with questions. However, Olivia tightened her face and stood up. Grabbing her handbag tightly, she rushed away to her room without coughing out a word. Evelyn quickly rushed to James, worry still visible on her face but someho

Olivia also looked at him but instantly took her eyes off him, arranging the bed.He closed the door behind him and stood at a spot, studying Olivia's expression, but it was unreadable. He scratched the back of his head, deep in thought. “She's mad at me; I think I just have to apologize,” he mumbled, ready to apologize for what had happened that night.“Oli…” His voice shook with embarrassment, leaving the name incomplete. Olivia didn't even bother to turn back to look at him.Taking a deep breath and composing himself, he walked closer to Olivia and began, trying to keep his voice steady, “...Olivia, concerning what happened today,”“What about it?” Olivia instantly turned and countered him sharply before he could even finish her words, a dark severity on her face.“I just want to say sorry for destroying everything,” James said after a reluctance, sincerity etched in

Olivia was also pulled and released a slow breath, her expression unreadable. Getting up from the bed, she greeted, wiping her face and stretching her body, “Good morning, Granny. You came so early to my room today, any issues?” Grandma Aurora didn't respond to her. She was so furious about what she saw when she entered the room. Her heart clenched, clearly furious. Her eyes darted between Olivia and James, her heart raced with suspicion. Her wicked gaze remained on James for some minutes before finally settling on Olivia. “Olivia, what was he trying to do to you? Was he trying to take advantage of you? Tell me and I'll have him spend his entire life in prison.” she said, her gaze burned with rage. Olivia sighed and shook her head, “It was nothing, granny. We were just having some conversations. That's all.”

Why do you insist on not going with him?” Caleb gave a casual shrug, “It should be obvious, Mom.” He replied.Amelia bobbed her head in agreement, “We don't want to be laughed at.” “Yes,” Caleb supported again, "If he drops us off, everyone at school will laugh at us. They already know everything about him.”James listened, his face blushed with anger, but he calmed himself, knowing he was no longer the same person he used to be. A soft grin escaped his lips.After they were done, Evelyn huffed heavily. “And does that change anything!? If you can't let him drive you both then Olivia is giving you both no damn fare!” She spoke with unwavering sureness.Grandma Aurora narrowed her eyes dangerously at her. “Stop it, Evelyn!” She shouted, slamming her fist on the table. And Evelyn was taken abac

Did he tell you anything about her?” Arthur, Joshua's father, who seemed to be in his late fifties asked Claire, his wife. Claire took a deep sip of the hot tea and placed it down on the table. She licked her lips, her leg crossed on the other as she replied, shaking her head, “No, I didn't get to see him when he returned last night.” She continued, “He must be in his room resting, but I will ask him about how it went whenever he wakes up.” Arthur frowned slightly, “That boy keeps on getting stubborn every day. I don't really know what is wrong with him!” He bit his lips, looking nervous. “What he saw in that Olivia of a girl is what I really can't tell. Bunch set of trash! I've well-to-do friends whose daughters are extremely beautiful but Joshua is refusing to go after them!” “That's because he loves her!” Claire interjected, sp

You can't take him along with you!” Leonard stepped in, refusing that James should go with Olivia. “Please, Dad. This isn't the right time to start a fight or any argument. James has to come with me, just stay back!” Without waiting for any reply, she hurried to her room. Soon, she was back with another outfit slipped on. Her heart pondered with a loud noise, “Let's go,” she dashed outside immediately. James still wore a surprised expression. This was the first time in their marriage that Olivia was letting him follow her out. Could it be because it is something of a problem that's why she is letting him go with her, maybe to solve it? He was reluctant in his steps, however, he waved the thought off his mind. She's his wife!

The staff looked him from his head down to his toe with contempt at this tattered-looking young man who was standing in his front. However, she knew that it was James who brought her madam, Olivia, here. However, she thought it was Olivia's driver and he had no guts to touch her with his dirty hands! “What's wrong with you, young man!? What do you want!?” She asked rudely after she turned. Her face twisted into anger. James sighed and composed his demeanor despite her rude words, “I just asked a polite question and I don't think it demands a rude answer. Besides, you are clueless about who you're talking with.” “And who do you think you are if I may ask?” The staff member’s face contorted in slight fury. James shook his h

But her words were signs of humiliation, which he knew but chose not to react to.The staff member packaged the necklace into a nice nylon bag and after a brief hesitation, she faced James and said, “Are you sure you can really pay for th

How can you be taking a pathetic man like him around! To do what exactly? Show him what he can't afford!” Both sales associates ridiculed their fellow sales associate, whose name was Sandra, just because she had offered to take James around. But Sandra didn't respond to them. Instead, she turned to James and said, “Please, don't listen to them, sir. That's how they behave. They are both sharp-tongued.” “It's clear, and they will lose their jobs today,” James muttered to himself, forcing a smile on his face. “Please, come with me, sir,” Sandra added, leading the way while James followed behind. The two sales associates shook their heads, letting out exasperated groans. “She's so unbelievable at times!

Sorry, Miss Olivia, did you come with your husband? Because I didn't see any well-dressed man here.” He replied. Olivia bit her lips, “Don't worry, just go back to your duty post.” And the security guard hurried away. She didn't want to describe James' appearance to the security guard as her husband. It would be so embarrassing to tell the security guard that James, who wasn't nicely dressed, was her husband! “Maybe he has gone home, but why didn't he wait for me?” She asked herself in surprise. “Or is it because I always treat him badly?” She felt bad within herself. “Hmm…I have to go home. He needs to explain where he got such a huge amount of money from!” Her curiosity took her into her car. Once settled in her car, she reversed out of the parking lot and drove out. Meanwhile, Jam

Every other person watched with bewildered eyes, including Olivia, but she couldn't say a word. She thought James was just putting on an act! A shit-eating grin escaped from James' mouth after the man had brought out his phone. “I don't want to say it twice; kindly and quickly forward back the money to me right away!” James spoke to the man almost rudely. And the man's body stiffened as chills ran down his spine. He draggingly lifted his head and looked at James with eyes widened in shock. He was short of words! It was at this moment that someone in the crowd looked into the man's phone, and the figure he saw made his mouth fall open. “H—he sent $11,000 instead of $9,000,” he stuttered, cupping his mouth. Others hurriedly gathered to confirm. And yes, it was true! James did it on purpose to prove them all wrong that indeed, he was capable! “He had such a
