A MONTH LATER Unknown to Olivia, she has been under watchful eyes. Her every activities are being monitored, When she leaves her home, to the industry and where she goes there after and even who she hangs out with.It's none other than Maynard. All this time, he couldn't stop himself from wanting to know about everything that have happened to her over the last two years.With the help of his driver Henry, he was able to get the information he needed and also where she resides.But it bothers him more to see that she has been doing so well and living her life to the fullest without him.He can't help but question himself..Has she really moved on from him? Does she really not think about him?What annoys him most is the fact that Olivia hangs out with the Sage guy all the time. Seeing them eat out and the way she laughs and Jokes with him drives him crazy.What gave her the right to joke around with a man? Most times, he doubts if they're really just friends like Henry had reported.
As he tookslow steps towards her, she took two steps back. She runs out of luck when her back hits the wall, leaving her with no where to run to.He was wearing a black mask as well to protect his identity. Olivia shivers in fear. There's nothing she can do and it only got worse when he pulls out a knife from his jacket, still walking towards her."Who are you? What do you want from me? Why do you keep tormenting me?" She keeps asking even though it's becoming so hard for her to breath.He just kept moving slowly towards her. What has she done to deserve this? As far as she knows, she has no foes whatsoever.. Who would want to do this to her?Right now, she can only wish for one thing... That is for a miracle to happen and someone would come save her. Where is Sage who always shows up when she needs help? Why isn't he showing up now? In a swift move, he attacks her, holding her neck and trying to strangle her. Olivia didn't want to give up easily. She did the first thing that came t
It wasn't the question of simply moving, it's her safety that matters. Her home isn't safe anymore. Her life is been threatened by some stalker fan.She had no where to go... She had thought of staying over at the hotel but she's never going to risk it.She considered staying over at sage's, Irrespective of what people would say when they see them staying together. It's only for a meantime, when all of this chaos is over.However, Sage was more than happy to have her. Where else would she be staying at if Sage wasn't in her life. She's glad to have him as a friend.If only Lucy had agreed to move out with her. Olivia had tried to persuade her but she insisted on staying back.Her mind wanders off to the time she collapsed. She thought it was Sage but it turns out to be Maynard.What was he doing in her home? How is it possible that he showed up just the same time she was being attacked?..It really doesn't make any sense to get threatened by some random stalker who gives threatening
Maynard's brows were knitted together in a deep frown as he seriously kept going through some pile of files on his desk.He don't want to be disturbed but want to keep working and working. He didn't expect Olivia to look down on him like she did. She was too harsh on him and said words no one has ever said to him.He had underestimated her. She wasn't the weak Olivia he used to know. She changed alot... more than he had expected.She didn't even appreciate the fact that he had saved her, it's what annoys him the most. Her words keep resounding in his head since she left, he couldn't shake the feeling of disdain that he had seen in her eyes. His secretary barged in with Mark all of a sudden while she was trying to prevent him from stepping in."Am sorry sir, I tried to stop him" She apologized immediately.Maynard glared at Mark who had a smirk with a carefree look on. If it wasn't for the one thing he has with Mark, he'd have asked the security to come throw him out and have the sec
"Am sorry you had to get hurt because of me" Olivia apologized as she applied treatment on Sage.Sage groans and moved his face away. He had accidentally bitten his lower lip when Maynard punched him, and it's really painful."What were you two talking about anyways? I walked passed you both because I don't want to engage in a conversation with him. If I'd seen this earlier, I'd have given him a piece of my mind..."Sage smiled. "It's nothing Olivia. It's just one of those discussions between guys. As for the punch, I guess he's simply jealous you moved on with me"She scoffed loudly.. "Jealous my foot!!" Mumbling, she applied finishing touches to the bruise.Sage didn't stop stealing glances at her face. Somehow, he felt relieved to see how much she cared about him, that only makes him believe that he's on the right track.However, his argument with Maynard a while back was borne out of jealousy and hate.As a man just like Maynard, he could tell that he's trying to make his way bac
TWO DAYS LATER"Mr Harper.!" Olivia called, stepping into Starlight industry. It's the same Industry she recently just signed into. She had taken up the offer and was fully ready to work for it because it's actually a story from a very popular novel and she's meant to play the female lead role. She's excited and can't wait to start work. Tho, she has no idea who she'd be playing the lead role with, but whoever it is, she's sure they're going to do a great job together."Am I late?" She asked further."Not at all. The male lead is yet to arrive. Let's just go in and join the others"She followed him in, meeting with the producers and other members of starlight industry. They got to exchange a few pleasantries.Since they're all waiting for the supposed make lead and having nothing to do, Olivia brought out her phone and began to play games, to kill the boredom.First day on a new deal and he's already late, is he so unprofessional? She thought to herself.She'd have loved to know w
Mark closed the file he was working on and stretched out his limbs. He's been really stressed out this past few days. Life as a CEO is really taking a turn on him, he didn't expect it would be this hard.Just then, a knock came right through the door. He muttered a soft "Come in". Lucy walks in with a leather bag."Am really sorry for disturbing sir, I ordered takeouts for you. Figured you must be hungry by now!" Lucy placed the leather bag on the table.Right on time, Mark's belly grumbled, showing how hungry he is."You know, I still wonder how you always figure out when I'm famished. Thanks for the takeouts" he flashed her a smile.The kind of smile that made her legs go weak and butterflies didn't stop dancing in her tommy. She blushed really hard, unable to stop blushing, she excused herself and hurried out of the office.Mark smiled as he watched her leave. She's really something else. Aside doing a really great job at work, somehow, he finds solace in her presence.Just like ho
As Olivia drove back home, she kept pondering over her conversation with Maynard. Though, that was the last conversation and since then, he didn't try to bother her but didn't stop staring and all Olivia did was just to avoid his gaze.But something kept lingering in her mind. Maynard had mentioned that Sage loves her, how did he get to find out?She could recall the last time Maynard showed up at Sage's home. She felt there was something Sage wasn't telling her, how else would Maynard have gotten to know Sage's feelings for her. It couldn't have been just mere thoughts right?Getting home, Sage looked excited as he invited her over to the dining table where he had just finished making a sumptuous dinner specially for her.Olivia could have been excited but she wasn't. She wanted to know what's going on and if there's something she has to know."Have a sit, I made this specially for you.."He pulled a sit out for her and she sat, thinking of ways to bring up the topic."What's the occ
