Chapter 17 That night Olivia decided to stay at the mansion with her mother. Alex asked Sally to stay there even though at that time Alex said that he would take Sally to the penthouse and live with Olivia. "Why don't you just stay here?" Sally said. "I have things to do so I can't stay here, I'll pick up Olivia tomorrow," Alex said. "No, I don't want to live in the penthouse if my mother isn't there, can you bring Lola here, I need her," Olivia said. "Are you sure you don't want to live in a penthouse?" Alex said. "Yes, my mother is here so..." Sally gently elbowed Olivia and made her turn towards her mother. "What's wrong Mom?" Olivia said. “Do what your boyfriend says, go home to the penthouse tomorrow,” Sally said. "But why? I still miss you and I want to spend a lot of time with you," Olivia said. "You can come here anytime, we'll stay together later," Sally said. "The decision is yours, I'll go first, take care of yourself Mom, and you, call me if something happens,"
Chapter 18"Thank God your baby is fine, it's just that your girlfriend’s condition is too weak at the moment, it seems like she's too stressed and her immune system is giving way, I'll give her some vitamins and nutrition, and make sure this doesn't happen again because this will affect your baby,” The doctor said and he came out of the room leaving Alex, Sally, and Olivia there.Alex saw Sally who continued to hold her daughter's hand, and there was something wrong with Olivia's blank stare at that time. Alex didn't know what happened, but when Sally contacted him and told him about Olivia's condition, Alex's heart ached, especially when he saw a lot of blood coming out of his girl.There were traces of blood on Alex's sleeve. He felt guilty every time something like this happened to Olivia."Mom, can you leave me and Alex for a moment?" Olivia said and her mother complied and left the room, but Alex, who was standing not far from Olivia, looked confused.“Baby, what's wrong? What h
Chapter 19Alex looked very confused. He sat on the floor with his arms propped up by his knees and his head bowed, blood flowed from Alex's hands at that time, making droplets fall to the floor.Guilt and all the regrets became one in Alex's head at that moment, he imagined what happened 10 years ago, when all the news only focused on the issue of major corruption committed by his grandfather.Not only that, his grandfather was also suspected of harassing one of his female employees and sending him to prison. A year later his grandfather was found dead in his room due to suicide and at that time Alex's anger was crazy, he found out who the person who spread the rumor was and looked for him.It was clear at that time that in Alex's eyes, there was only hatred because the person he loved most had to suffer and even die because of a mistake he never made.Alex came to the roof of his office to meet the man, intending to make him confess and tell everyone the truth but what happened was
Chapter 20Two months laterThe good news finally came, Carol was pregnant, and her parents were very happy with the gift, but maybe Billy wasn't too happy because he knew what happened between him and Alex.Carol and her husband visit her parents at their home, showing them the happy news they have finally heard.Billy's sharp gaze seemed to find out what Alex was planning to do with his daughter, but Alex's acting was much better this time.Alex left Carol with her mother in the living room while he went into the backyard to smoke, he knew Billy would come after him."Well, it's quite surprising that you're still going through with your plan," Billy said."What plan?" Alex Said.“Whatever's in your head, and what about your girl? I heard she lost her baby," Billy saidHearing this certainly shocked Alex, but he couldn't show any reaction in front of Billy, his heart was broken and he felt guilty, he didn't know what he should do after this, after everything that happened with Olivia
Chapter 21“Everything you have is just a secret, Alex. There's never any honesty in it, and I'm the one who fell into your trap, maybe after my father," Olivia said.Alex was quite surprised to hear Olivia's words, there was no way that Olivia already knew everything, no one knew about that apart from him and Billy. But Olivia's face at that time looked very angry, there was sadness in her eyes which made Alex feel even more guilty.Even after what Alex did to Olivia's life, the girl hated herself more than the CEO.In all the time he had known Olivia, Alex had never seen that side of her, Olivia was just an innocent girl who always followed his words and served him well. But that day, the girl sitting in front of him was a different Olivia, she was the same girl he met 3 years ago in the hospital but she was different.The eyes that looked at him at that time weren't the same anymore, Alex had made a big mistake and he realized it, he ruined everything, this was all because of Billy
Chapter 22 Olivia finally explained everything to her mother, she couldn't keep pretending in front of Sally, of course, Olivia felt guilty for keeping this a secret from her, but at that time only Sally's recovery was the most important thing and she would do anything for that. "I'm sorry Mom, this is my fault, I ruined my own life and now I blame other people for what happened to me, he warned me repeatedly, but I ignored him and couldn't control my feelings until this destroyed me," Olivia said. They sat on the bed, Olivia continued to look at her mother and held Sally's hand tightly, hoping that her mother would not be disappointed with her decisions. "I can't believe this Olivia, like everything, everything you talk about is very different from what I've seen and heard so far, and I don't know which one to believe now, to be honest, this disappoints me, you, him, everyone," Sally said. "Mom, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you, I just wanted you to get better but I'm st
Chapter 23Drew and Alex's meeting looked very serious, Alex came to Drew's place to discuss this important issue. Alex wasn't surprised when he heard Drew's complaints about his new work partner, but Alex just didn't expect Billy to show his colors so quickly."I shouldn't risk my good name just to help you, what if everything fails and what I've built all this time just gets destroyed? I don't know what's going on between you and Billy, but if it's a personal matter I don't want to get involved," Drew said."Relax, this plan will not destroy what you have achieved so far, if this project is destroyed, I will help you get out of trouble, and this is not because of personal problems, but I have to show him who he is facing, he came to me as a father and suddenly talked about the project as if he wanted it," Alex said."But Alex, if that's true, then they will also question my credibility in this job and the reason I changed my partner, they will think I'm the same way," Drew said."Ju
Chapter 24After returning home, Carol expressed her annoyance at Alex, of course she felt very annoyed with Alex's behavior in not keeping his word and just leaving her, he even ignored all his wife's calls and messages just for work reasons.When he arrived home, Alex seemed to ignore her and went into his room, this added to Carol's anger, so she went to her room to talk to Alex.“What happened to you huh? You just left me at my parents' house and you said we would watch and buy ice cream after you came back but what? we ended up at home and you ignored me, you didn't even apologize or do anything to make me better," Carol said."I'm busy Carol," Alex said in a cold tone.“Busy you say? Are you serious? Alex, you are on leave and you have to focus on me, with my pregnancy, why are you busy with your work now?" Carol said.“Enough Carol! What do you want? You married the guy you're crazy about, you're living with me now, you're pregnant and now I'm here for you, what more could you
