Chapter 67
NICK
My whole body shook in anger, and I pushed myself off the wall. “I am going to fucking kill HER!” I pushed right past Ethan and just as I rounded a corner my sister appeared out of nowhere. “Woah, where is the fire?” I glared at her, the sight of her made my stomach churn. “Get the fuck out of my way!” my voice was dangerously low and threatening.
“Okay, jeez!” she moved aside, I took one step, but Ethan held my arm stopping me.” Why didn’t you tell me this before? I could have told you the truth and prevented you from making the biggest mistake of your life.”
“She fucking convinced me not to! I believed her and her doctor confirmed everything! What was I supposed to think?”
“Tell me the name of the doctor, I will go there. I want to know why he lied.” The damn thing was a web of lies and even her doctor was involved. I remember that day I wanted to bring her here, but she refused and said she wanted her doctor.
The man has a practice close to the mall and I took her there. I told Ethan the name of the practice and the doctor and rushed off. She fucking played me! getting out of the hospital I was seeing red. Given spotted me then threw the cigarette away.
He must have seen my expression because he didn’t open the door for me or ask questions. He went straight to the driver’s seat and started the car. I got inside. “To my house.” The car moved and it felt like it was moving slow. Cars stacked the freeway with people going about their business.
I looked out the window and with each car that passed people looked happy and smiling. It was like they were mocking me for ruining my own life. For being stupid enough to be played by a woman to a point that I got blinded to the truth.
“I didn’t do this, Nick. You have to believe me, please.” Olivia’s please of that day rang in my head. She told me that she didn’t do it, she pleaded with me to look into it. To believe her but I didn’t. I turned my back on her protecting a liar who was only using me.
What was her intension? To get my wife out of the way, but for what? What did she have to gain by telling lies about my wife. Were any of the things she told me about her true? Her affair with Marcus while we were married, the text messages with her telling Sandra that she didn’t want a child with me.
I was so stupid, if Olivia was taking birth control, then how did she fall pregnant and why had I not asked these questions before. Why had I not asked Marcus why he got involved with my wife while she was married to me. with the little that I have seen of Marcus, his interaction with Olivia. It showed that he cared but it didn’t seem like something was happening with them.
Dear lord, how could I have been so stupid! Soon Given parked in front of my house: Lights were on and I didn’t even wait for him to properly park the car. I jumped off eager to have my hands wrapped around that woman’s neck and squeezing the life out of her.
She looked for my weakness and exploited it separating my wife and I in the process. Did Olivia even steal from me or was it all her? damn it! I budged into the house; the door was unlocked. “Sandra!” I yelled her name as I walked towards the kitchen looking for her.
“Sandra, come out here!” I headed to her room but when I got there it was empty. Sandra!” I went to the bathroom, and it was empty. Where the hell could she have gone at that hour? I went back to her room and that was when I noticed the opened closet.
All her clothes were gone, only empty hangers remained. With anger I took the side lamp and threw it against the wall, and it shuttered. I took another and did the same. Then I went crazy in that room, the mattress flipped over, the base. Anything I could find I threw.
I was so angry. The bitch left, who the hell could have warned her. “Given!” I yelled his name, and he appeared as if he was standing right outside the door waiting. ” Find her, find that fucking bitch and bring her to me.” he nodded and turned to leave.
“Given?” he turned to look at me. “No one comes back here without her; do Lmake myself clear?”
“Yes, sir.” He then left. I fumed in anger; my chest rose and fell. She tricked me and my wife paid the price for my stupidity. For not seeing through her schemes. Oh, the face things I was going to do to her when I find her. a sinister smile appeared on my as I thought of ways I was going to kill her.
People thought I was only ruthless in business, but they were wrong. I never had to be ruthless outside of the boardroom because everyone respected me and my wife. My whole family, no one dared to try anything with us. But now the fight was out of the boardroom, and it was time they knew who I was.
It was time I showed the world what happens when you mess with Nick Jones and his family. My phone rang and I took it out of my pocket. It was Ethan. I hoped he had better luck than I did. “What did you find?”
“Nothing,” I frowned getting angrier. It was no time for him to play with me like that.” What the fuck do you mean nothing. Did you go to the right place?”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“I am not stupid Nick; the owner of the store told me that he moved in a month after that incident. He said the place was empty and the owner said it was in the market for three months before he rented it. That it was never a medical clinic but another store.”
1 fumed in anger, she had everything planned and I fell for it. Fuck! “It seems it was planned well in advance just for that day to fool you and you fucking fell for it. What is that bitch saying.”
My hands shook, she played me for a fool but why? “When I got here, she was gone.”
