Revenge After Divorce Novel by Black Rose

Chapter 334

NICK

I stopped in front of Olivia’s mansion; it was breathtakingly beautiful. I was jealous, Luke did well, and the place was secured. I got out of the car and was met with a drunk Ethan and Luke. “Are we celebrating already?” Luke just shook his head and focused on the doll in his arms.

I scanned the area for Samuel and Lupita. “They are already inside, if you are looking for Lupita that is, but if you are looking for Olivia then I have no idea where she and Marcus disappeared to.” I didn’t know what he was playing at, but I wasn’t about to entertain him.

I took a step closer to them, but my best friend took a step back. I stopped and observed him. “Don’t, don’t you come near me.” At that time, he couldn’t even stand straight, he was like a tree in the wind moving side to side as

he stood.

“I see, are you afraid of me now, Ethan?” I knew he was. I spooked the hell out of him. Where did he get off asking me about such things. His job was to sit behind the screen and do as much damage as he could without physical noveldrama

contact.

He had no idea what went on when you torture a human. The emotional strain one took and the mental strain. One had to be strong both emotionally and mentally or you could be destroyed, changed forever and I tried my best not to let that happen.

“Who wouldn’t be? after what you did to Xander and how you have been acting. I am scared the shit out of you, and I don’t want you anywhere near me. We can talk on the phone but that’s about it!” I chuckled, I wished I were that drunk.

“Tell me, how true is what he told me?” I should have known he went and blabbed to Luke about everything I told him. The way he ran out of my house should have told me that he was going to Luke.

“Am not sure how much he told you, but I will tell you what is true. I am still mad as hell at Xander and wish I killed him. But Olivia wouldn’t have forgiven me if I did, and she might have never let me anywhere near my son again. I also have his skin, which is the only thing I can keep calming my anger. I couldn’t kill him, but his skin serves as a reminder that I have done enough.”

Luke shook his head; I couldn’t tell what he was thinking. I had to wait for him to say something, I hated that I couldn’t read him. “You do know that keeping the skin is not normal, right?” Of course, I knew that. What did they want from me? I wasn’t crazy!

“I know Luke, what do you want me to do? Go to therapy or go kill Xander? Because I don’t even know why you are keeping him. Send him out into the world and let it deal with him if the families of the men he sent here to be killed don’t get him first.”

If he were the boss, which could be the case since they followed his instructions then he was going to be just fine. The families might be afraid to cause trouble with him. if not, then I wished with everything in me that they kill the bastard.

“I don’t care what you do, get rid of that damn skin and I will get rid of Xander the only way I know how. I don’t want the likes of him coming back here and causing trouble again.” He lifted his head and looked at me.

His jaw tightened, which meant he was getting angry. The interrogation he subjected me to was not what I went there for. I went for the house, no. the mansion. Because that was no house. “I wouldn’t put it past him to want revenge or for his thirst for revenge to intensify. Mine would if you had skinned me alive like that.”

Well, he brought that all to himself, I didn’t care how he got rid of him as long as the man was gone. Far away from my reach because I didn’t know how long I could hold out. Knowing that he was there, alive and well. Got me

anxious.

“When I know he is gone, I will burn his skin.” Luke clicked his tongue and walked away. “Hey! Don’t leave me here with him.” Ethan yelled following him. I just shook my head and took out my phone. I dialled Lupita, she answered almost immediately.

“Where are you? I don’t see you and Samuel anywhere.” Olivia emerged from the house and looked in my direction. Then I remembered that I wasn’t invited, and it was not my turn to have Samuel.

She walked towards me. “Lupita, let me call you back. I think I am about to be kicked out.” I didn’t wait for her to reply as I cut the call and waited for Olivia to get to me. When she got to me, she looked me dead in the eyes and asked. “Are you a psychopath?”

That had Ethan written all over it. I shook my head in the negative, though I had not been diagnosed by a doctor, I was sure that I wasn’t crazy. “Words, Nick. I want you to use words.” Wow, she was still intimidating.

“I am not a psychopath, Olivia. You were married to me, do you think I changed overnight?” a sigh left her. “I have done many questionable things that may make someone think of me as such. But they were all for a good, reason, to protect you and the kids. I am tired of you getting hurt all the time Olivia.”

I scanned her face; she looked as if she were thinking about what I said. “I know I wasn’t invited, and I will leave now, but stop getting hurt and I will stop having to hurt people. I don’t want our son to grow up without his mother.” I then got into my car and drove off.
