OLIVIA
I couldn’t believe what I heard, my dad threatened Lupita, why did he do that, did Lupita do something to make him threaten her that way? No, Lupita was not that kind of person, she was good, she had no evil bone in her body, then why would my dad threaten her with death?
“I told you to stay out of things that don’t concern you, what are you doing here ears dropping on other people’s conversations?” shit! “Come on, let’s go, this is how you get yourself into trouble.” Marcus too my hand and just as we turned to leave Nick spoke.
“If you did something to hurt Olivia, you will not only have to worry about Luke, but you will also have me to deal with as well.” His voice was so cold and detached that it set cold shivers running down my spine. Just what could Lupita have done to make those men angry?
I glanced at my husband; confusion decorated his face with his brows furrowed. Whatever it was with Nick, my dad and Lupita. My husband had no clue about it. “Nick, why would you readily believe what he said instead of listening to me. why is it that when Olivia’s name is mentioned you turn into this animal?”
That cut deep, how could she? Nick maybe be anything, but he was no animal. The man had his good side and everything that he and all the men in my life had been involved in was to protect me, us and yet Lupita has the audacity to call him an animal.
I didn’t feel like it was fair on Nick, he was trying and everyone could see that. I took a step, but Marcus held my arm. I looked at him and he shook his head. “It’s none of your business. Let’s go.

He was right, Nick was none of my business and whatever Lupita was up was none of my business as well. We walked away, I thought we were going upstairs but my husband led me outside.
“What is wrong with you?” he asked as soon as we got outside. “Am sorry I…”
“No, I don’t need apologies right now, I need to know what is wrong with you, what business do you have with Nick that you would want to interfere with him and his relationship?”
I frowned, was he being jealous and insecure again? “Answer me, Olivia. Do you like it when Nick is running after you like a lost puppy that you don’t want someone else to have him?” I felt offended by his words.

“No, you have no right to look as if you are wronged, why did you go in there? Was it because Lupita called him an animal?” I said nothing. “Marcus chuckled. Well, she wasn’t wrong, and she was talking about something she saw, yet you were ready to run in there and defend him as if the man in there is the Nick you once knew. News flash, my dear wife. That Nick Jones, the one you used to know. Is gone.”
I didn’t know what he meant about that, I wanted to ask but I knew it was only going to fuel the fire that was already burning.
“I am sorry, I wasn’t thinking, and yes, you are right. Whatever is going on between them has nothing to do with me. also, I don’t want Nick back if that is what you are thinking. I am happy that he is moving on. I think I overreacted when she called him an animal.”
My husband laughed as if he were mocking me. “What is wrong with her calling him an animal? You used to call him that as well. What’s new now, or did you forget what kind of an animal he was back then?”
I kept my mouth shut, I shouldn’t have acted or done anything. I did say that my curiosity always got me into trouble. “Marcus, I swear that is not how it is. Nick has done a lot for us, you all have. I think I just felt the need to protect him.”
He chuckled shaking his head. “Did you hear what Lupita said?” I heard it, loud and clear. She felt threatened by
- me. what had I done to make her doubt me and my intentions. “The woman you want us to welcome into this family with open arms, said that your ex–husband turned into a monster when your name is being mentioned. Care to explain that?”
What was there to explain? Nick had always been that way. But also, what was I thinking? What had gotten into me?
“I see the wheels are turning in that head of yours, good. Think about what you did and why you did it and when you find the answer. Tell me, I am sick and tired of dealing with everything to do with Nick and you.
Marcus was angry and I got here his anger came from. Marcus shook his head then walked away. “He is not over you.” I turned and my dad was behind me. I wondered how much he heard from what Marcus said.
“He is moving on dad,”
“Are you sure about that?” I kept quiet, I wasn’t sure. “If he were moving on, he wouldn’t have said what he said back there.
I had no words; no wonder Marcus was angry. “Get those two people out of this house, Olivia. I don’t care where Lupita goes, but I want her gone and if you want to keep her safe. You will do as I say.’
What could Lupita have done, why was my dad so angry with her? “Tell me what she did?” I couldn’t just chase her out. “Get rid of her, Olivia. For your sake and hers, I hope you listen this time.” He walked away. noveldrama
I was so confused, what the hell had been happening right under my roof. What had Lupita done, did she really want to do something to me? I couldn’t believe that I didn’t want to, Lupita wouldn’t do something like that. We had been through a lot, she, and I. she wouldn’t betray me, I trusted her.
