Revenge After Divorce Novel by Black Rose

Chapter 328

OLIVIA

As I sat there not knowing what to do, I began to think that Luke was right about not telling Marcus anything, Anyway, I didn’t tell him anything, he found out on his own and was now angry. I didn’t know who his anger was directed. It was not like I did anything wrong; Ethan was the one who kissed me.

I didn’t kiss him back, why did I have to act as if I had done something wrong. I stood with a newly found determination; I wasn’t about to sleep on the couch or guest bedroom when I had a perfectly comfortable bed. I climb the stairs, even my steps were those of a confident woman.

I opened the door to our room and my husband was nowhere to be found. But then I heard the shower running. Usually, I would have joined him in the shower, but I didn’t think he would have appreciated that on that particular day.

I sat uncomfortably on the bed waiting for him to finish so could take my shower as well before going to bed. When the shower stopped running, my nerves returned, my palms got sweaty and sticky. Damnit, what happened to the confidence I had coming up those stairs?

He came in with only a towel covering his lower half. I swallowed hard with my throat suddenly getting dry. ” Don’t look at me like that if you know I am not the one you are actually looking at.” Everything went out the window when he said that, and I stood.

“I get that you are angry, but I will not tolerate being spoken to in that manner. Ethan kissed me, I did nothing to provoke it, I don’t appreciate you insinuating I did. If you don’t believe me then there is nothing, I can do about that. But I will not be spoken to like that, not by you. Nick was the first and the last man to do that.”

I then stormed off and got into the bathroom. I meant to apologise to him, I might not have done anything wrong, but he got hurt and I was his wife. I had to make him feel better, to assure him that something like that would never happen again.

I was going to do all that but not anymore. He pissed me off by saying that to me as if I asked Ethan to kiss me or kissed him back. He was acting like a victim when I was the victim in the story.

I heard the shower door opening and I turned. Marcus stepped into the shower, I just looked at him waiting for him to say something. But he said nothing, he looked at me for a while before pulling me into his arms, holding me tight. noveldrama

“Mine, you hear me? you are mine Olivia.” I said nothing, there was nothing to say. Being his didn’t mean he could talk to me anyhow. I was not about to tolerate that kind of behaviour. “Olivia?” still, I kept my mouth shut.

He held me tighter, “Am sorry, I didn’t mean what I said. I am just so angry. I don’t know what these men take me for. If they could do something like that to you knowing very well that you are my wife, means that they don’t respect me or our marriage.”

He pulled out and looked at me. “I know all of them mean a lot to you, but something is got to give Olivia, I can’t tolerate this anymore. First it was Nick, I know you did nothing to provoke it just like now, but he didn’t respect me as your husband or our marriage. Now that Nick is moving on, Ethan is starting his own shit as well.”

He looked so frustrated, I sighed. He was right, what both Nick and Ethan did was disrespectful toward my husband and they needed to be told. Nick was already moving on with Lupita and I was happy about that.

But what Ethan did was like he was waiting for Nick to step aside so he could try his luck. “When I ask him about this in the morning, he is going to blame it on the alcohol, but I know for a fact that when you do something like that, its usually something you have been thinking about for a long time. The alcohol just gives you the courage to act on it.”

Marcus continued. “It makes me so mad because I see them as my friends and Ethian is the guy who helped you when you had no one. I don’t want you to lose him in your fe, but something’s got to give.”

A sigh left me. Why did those guys have to keep messing up Couldn’t they just behave for once and let me have some peace?

I got done and we went to bed. By the time I woke up in the morning, my husband was not on the bed. I got curious but then stopped myself from going to look for him. There was no point, I was going to let him deal with Ethan however he wanted.

I dealt with Nick; he could deal with Ethan himself. Beside im being one of the people I trusted the most, Marcus was my husband and his friend. What he did hurt him. I showered and went downstairs for breakfast.

Movers were coming to help us move the necessary stuff we wanted to take to the new house. I wanted to eat something before it got busy. When I appeared in the kitchen, Ethan was there making breakfast.

He didn’t look different and that made me assume Marcus Had not spoken with him. “Good morning, Olivia. Though I hear it might not be.” He raised an eyebrow looking at me as he got busy. “What makes you say that?” I wanted to be sure we were talking about the same thing.

He shrugged. “Marcus gave me an earful saying I kissed you last night.” I said nothing but looked at him. He placed a plate of food in front of me followed by a cup of coffee. “I won’t deny what I did, and I won’t blame the alcohol. I knew what I was doing.”

There was one thing I liked about Ethan; he was a straightforward guy. “I won’t justify it, I did it because I wanted to. It had nothing to do with Marcus or your marriage or the disrespect about he was referring to. Though I understand why he might feel disrespected. You are his wife after all. But I always wanted to kiss you, but I never got the opportunity to do so. Last night I did, and I took it.”

My mouth hung open, shocked to the core by how straightforward he was about everything. “But worry not, it won’t happen again. I don’t want a relationship, and I am not obsessed with you. I just wanted a kiss, and I got it. End of story.”
