Revenge After Divorce Novel by Black Rose

LUKE

A smile formed on my lips hearing my daughter putting Lupita in her place. I was proud, she was growing up and starting to stop that habit of hers of trying to please everyone. Olivia had lost many people in her life and was afraid to lose

more.

That was why she develop that tendency of taking the blame for everything that goes wrong in the lives of those closest to her. for that they took advantage of her, and she let them because she didn't want to lose anyone else.

Also, the issue of the people closest to her hurting her more was one of the reasons why she always wanted to keep them safe, protect and please them even at her expense. Now that I have seen how tired she was of doing that. I could interfere and stand up for her as well.

"Princess, I will be right back, I am taking the kids with me." she raised an eyebrow, I could see how angry she still was. “Don't worry, I am going to pick up Elodie, you rest, and we will be right back."

Her frown deepened, I know how she and Elodie didn't get along as well as they used to, but she needed time to herself. Get angry and drink if she wanted. It was time I took care of her now. she did her best, apologised, and degraded herself.

Now it was time for her father to play his part to fix things for her. "Dad..." I lifted my hand silencing her. "Don't worry about anything, just rest, the kids and I will be fine." I didn't wait for her to say more.

I pushed the stroller out followed by my grandson. We got into the car, and I strapped them in before driving off. I went to Elodie's place and dropped off the little princess. Then drove to Ethan's place with Samuel.

My man already informed me that he was home with his woman. Talk about being selfish, my daughter was going crazy there over him and the woman and they were having fun.

I knocked on the door then let myself in. "Who the fuck is..." he shut his mouth when he saw me. "Good to see you too." I went and poured myself a drink. That woman looked as if she wanted to disappear.

It was my first time seeing her in person. My men only showed me a picture of her. "What is it like being back together?" Ethan focused on Samuel as if he didn't hear me. I chuckled; the boy was really trying my patience.

"Ethan, I need to talk to you. give Samuel his game and let him play while we talk. You?" I pointed at the woman. "Look after my grandson for a moment." She quickly nodded. I walked away going to his study.noveldrama

He soon joined me with a drink in hand. He always respected me for as long as I had known him. he took a seat in front of me. he didn't seem to mind that I was sitting on his chair, in his study.

"Tell me, when are you going to end this shit with Olivia?" he looked offended. "I took your side before because what you said made sense and Marcus did go overboard. Don't you think you are the one going overboard now?"

He lifted his head to look at me, he looked angry. I tilted my head to the side watching his every move. The boy was good, but he did have a tendency of taking things too far when he puts his mind to it.

But this was one of the things he would have to stop while at it. "Olivia did me wrong." I nodded. "I never said she didn't. that was why I took your side, but tell me, is it worth it using that boy in there to threaten her, are you not doing the same thing Marcus did to you?"

He looked as if he had a light bulb moment, it was easy to judge when something was being done to you, but when you were the one doing the same thing, it was hard to recognise it as wrong.

"I want you to give Olivia her rights, she will never ask you to do it herself because she doesn't want to seem ungrateful for what you did for her. but I can ask you that on her behalf. How do you think she felt when you reminded her that you could take her son away from her if you wished?"

Now he looked guilty, as I said, he was a good man. "You two have hurt each other enough now. stop. Register her as Samuel's mother in his birth certificate. Give her the rights to her son back and never threaten her with something like that again. That makes you no different from Nick. He is the one who does things like that not you."

He stood, "I was hurt, and I guess I wanted to hurt her back. I didn't think about how it would make her feel threatening to take Samuel from her. I did exactly what Nick did to her; I was selfish and only thought of myself and my own feelings."

That was what I liked about Ethan; he was not an unreasonable person. "I don't want to hear that, as I said, you have both hurt each other but you can put a stop to it now. Olivia has learnt her lesson. You know she will never do something like that again."

He nodded, "I will register her as Samuel's mother and bring her the new birth certificate." I stood. I wasn't going to stay; I just went there to talk some sense into

him.

"You are a good man Ethan, don't waste your time being angry and focus on that woman in there. I can tell you love her, and she makes you happy. Focus on those happy moments and forget everything else. It's not worth it."

He nodded with a little smile playing on his lips. walked out with him following me behind. "Don't bring

that woman to Olivia again, you net

don't need her approval on relationship. If you want to keep being friends with her you can be, but don't expect her to be friends with your woman as well when she is not comfortable with it."

He frowned; he didn't look happy with that. what a fool. "Ethan, it's enough that you love each other, everyone else and their opinion should not matter. If you make each other happy, focus on that because that is all that matters." I took Samuel and left.
