Revenge After Divorce Novel by Black Rose

OLIVIA

My blood boiled, “Excuse me, what did you just say?” Lupi was right, the woman did think she was the madame of the house. Where the hell did, she get the audacity to say something like that to me and in my own house. Treating my son like that in his home, she was the guest, and she seemed to forget that.

“I asked what are you going to do if I call him a brat?” she repeated herself and I closed the distance between us. Marcus was quick to pull me aside. “Let us all calm down here,” he turned to Jennifer. “I know you are emotional, and little thing might upset you, but Samuel is a chilld. You don’t treat him like that.”

She laughed as if she was a crazy woman. “Then what amarrying Marcus? Is it not your child that I am carrying and trying to protect? Why would you even reprimand me and not this boy for being so careless? I could have been holding hot tea and it would have spilled all over me and bined me, what then?”

The audacity of this woman. “Lupita, please take Samuel away.” She did as told then I turned to her. “I don’t know what makes you think you can do as you please in my house and treat my child like that, but it stops now. you will do well to remember your place in this house. You are nothing but a guest here. Remember that the next time you try something like that.”

She chuckled. “No, Olivia, I think you will do well to remember that this guest is still carrying your child.” My stomach twisted in knots. I wanted to slap that woman so hard. “Alright, that’s enough. Let’s go to the hospital for a check–up.” I looked at Marcus, wasn’t he going to say something to her?

“I don’t feel like going anymore, my mood is ruined.” She said and I laughed. “Then you will be in breach of your contract, and we have the right to sue you and make you go to those appointment. Remember you are getting paid to do this and if you don’t adhere to the rules. Then you can talk to our lawyers and settle this with them.”

Finally, he said something, he looked angry though, I was too. We treated her like family, and she goes and does something like that? how ungrateful. “Fine, I will go. But I need to change first.” She walked away with so much attitude.

I turned to my husband. “I am sorry I didn’t listen to you back then. You did say there was something about her. now I see what you meant. I think we let the devil carry our child and I am scared to death of what she might do if she feels threatened.”

Marcus took me into his arms. “Everything is going to be alright, and I need to tell you something but after the doctor’s appointment.” I nodded. Soon we were on the road heading to the doctor.

The baby was fine and developing well. I was relieved to hear that, doctor also told us that we were out of the danger zone. He said it was going to be smooth sailing from now on. His words not mine. But I doubted it was going to be smooth sailing.

Jennifer was hell bent on making our lives hell until that baby was born. “We made an appointment at the spar for you, the driver will take you.” I told her. I could see she wanted to say something more, but I took my husband’s hand and walked away.

I have had enough of her for one day. If this was what my husband had to deal with every day with her. then I was sorry for complaining. I wished he told me though. We went to the park and sat there in silence for a while.

“It started that night when I called Ethan over.” I turned to him and listened. He looked lost and I hated that look on him. “I told you I was going to change. But soon after leaving you she met me in the back yard. Asked for a foot massage telling me her feet hurt.” He chuckled.

“I told her to run herself a bath and relax but she told me she was carrying my child and if she wanted a massage then that is what she should get.” Marcus went on to tell me everything that happened that night. noveldrama

He sighed looking exhausted. “That woman is crazy, and don’t want her doing something to hurt the baby as well. Yes, for now, she seems to care about the baby because in that crazy mind of hers, it was hers and mine. But I don’t know what she will do if we continue to convince her that it is not.”
