Mummy, Daddy is on his knees

Rihanna’s face fell to the side after a slap was sent to her face by Anita who just came in, the room fell into a pin drop silence..

She raised her head gently to the person who just raised a hand to her face..

“Mum! –

Anita snapped her head to Alexa’s direction “Don’t you dare utter another word!”

She faced Rihanna once more with a glare, just as she had expected, The latter was just like her vicious mother!

They could do anything just to get what they want, and to think that Rihanna did such a thing with the help of her daughter disgusts her so much..

“You tried so hard to trap Damien in your clutches.. but look at what it had cost you.. you lost and Damien isn’t the one to be blamed.. you were the one who pushed him to Olivia right? so get that fact straight and get out of our home!”

Rihanna’s teeth clenched in anger, she turned back to the princess bed and grabbed her purse and phone before facing them again..

“I’ll leave! but just so you know… this isn’t over! you all will regret making this mistake!” She barked stomping her way to the door when she heard Damien’s voice..

“You’ll hear from me very soon Rihanna..”

She inhaled deeply before leaving the room, she bumped into Aldrin who had been at the corridor all along..

She snorted, he didn’t have a voice of his own, always doing everything his wife and father suggests to him, which makes her wonder if he really liked her all these while or not..

But either way, she knew everything was really over this time between Damien and her..

The door closed behind them as a reminder that she was finally out, Damien settled his gaze on his sister who now looked petrified..

But that was all an act that he wasn’t going to fall for this time, the last time, he was a bit lenient on her but now.. she’ll get what she really deserved as a punishment.

“So dear sister.. brace yourself, you’ll also hear from me and I can’t guarantee you’ll be able to bear it”

The smile on everyone’s face seemed to seize since Kelvin got hurt..

Sandy dropped her cutlery on the table while Bianca took out the empty dishes to the kitchen, she returned back to the table where her gaze fell on Olivia who was picking on her food..

“Olivia”

Bianca called out taking a seat beside her, she understood Olivia’s plight, after all, she was just like a second mother to Kelvin..

“You worry too much.. he took his medication and also he’s fast asleep.. give him a few weeks to recover and our home will be as lively as it was before”

Olivia raised her head up to them with a small smile, she gave a nod and few seconds later, a knock was heard at the door..

“It’s pretty late, I wonder who it is” Sandy murmured..

Olivia’s seat moved back as she stood up to her feet, “I’ll go get it.. Bianca please pack up.. I really don’t have an appetite”

Bianca stared down at Olivia’s untouched food, she opened her mouth to speak, but the latter turned around and left for the door..

“She didn’t even take a bite out of it” Bianca complained frustratingly, Kelvin surprisingly had a large appetite whereas she was just drowning her self in worry..

Olivia’s lips curved upward a little bit as Jonah’s face came in view, she chuckled as soon as Kiara brushed past her going into the apartment..

She closed the door behind her, joining him on the porch..

“I heard what happened at the kid’s school today.. how is he doing now?”

“He’s doing fine.. he just went to bed a few minutes ago..”

Jonah gave a nod, he touched her shoulder a bit giving it a tight squeeze, unbeknownst to him, a glare bore lasers into the hand by a figure who just got out of his car…

“Don’t stress about it, he’ll be alright”

He handed Kiara’s backpack over to her with a weird smile on his face..

“I’m deeply sorry for bothering you this late.. Kiara actually gave a tantrum, she wanted to have a sleepover with Kelvin to look after him.. I also packed her school uniform and other things just Incase she also want you to take her to school”

Olivia accepted the backpack sighing deeply, Kiara was such a kid, she reminded her of her younger self back in those days..

“It’s never a bother Jonah.. go on have a goodnight rest, she’s in safe hands”

“Actually.. I’m going out clubbing, who knows a lucky girl might get my attention” he joked for her to laugh it off..

He was relieved that she wasn’t so moody like two minutes back..

He turned around walking away from her oblivious to the pair of eyes gwaking at him..Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Olivia sighed clutching the pink Barbie backpack to her chest, her eyes suddenly narrowed at a tall dark figure approaching her in large strides..

Once the figure drew nearer to her, a gasp escaped her lips, his grey orbs pierced through her like a burning needle..

“You-

He dipped his head down to her face where their noses touched, their gazes locked onto each other for some seconds..

“His jokes aren’t that funny to make you laugh.. and why exactly did he touch you? how long has this been going on?” He asked in a calm yet firm tone..

“What are you talking about? and what exactly are you doing here this late?”

The door opened behind Olivia startling her a bit, they both snapped their heads to stare at Bianca who had a widened gaze on her face obviously not expecting to see this..

She snatched the backpack from Olivia’s hold and flashed them a smile..

“I really didn’t mean to interrupt.. carry on”

With that, the door closed on them, Olivia pulled her attention back to Damien..

“I stopped by to see Kelvin.. sorry I had to leave the hospital in a hurry without saying a proper goodbye.. something urgent came up”

“He’s fast asleep.. you can check back some other time.. as it states my boss is really heartless and he’ll want me to resume at the office earlier than normal.. so if you don’t mind.. I’m going back in”

She turned around ready to go in when his hand held her wrist..

“Are you just helping him to look after his daughter? or there is more?”

She faced him with a confused look on her face, what was wrong with him? he was sounding like a jealous boyfriend..

Which leaves her to wonder why exactly he’d be jealous of Jonah..

She took a step closer and stood on her toes, having done that, she leaned forward taking a sniff for any trace of alcohol..

Damien didn’t know what came over him because in the next second, he leaned down and brushed his lips gently against hers perhaps it was the faint scent of her perfume that he had grown familiar with or more that was lingering around..

Olivia’s eyes went round like saucers, though it was for a second, it was enough to send jolts down her body..

“I’m-

She suddenly turned around and disappeared behind the door leaving him standing alone on the porch..
