Chapter 40 - Chapter 4

Few days later…..

Leon's P.O.V

I woke up feeling tired as usual and my phone kept ringing annoyingly. I checked the caller id and saw it was Rachel.

Yeah what's up? Good morning Leon there's a new update.

Yeah what's it? Olivia canceled the interview scheduled for this evening.

Why? Is she sick or something else? She didn't give any reason and just said it was a personal matter.

I suddenly had a bad feeling, what if that Dylan guy did something to her.

I couldn't stop myself and quickly called her but she didn't pick up or maybe she was ignoring me on purpose.

I dropped a message and she replied moments later:

"Why do you keep messing up my life Leon? What did I ever do to you?!"

I read the message a few times to make sure I was seeing it correctly.

What was she talking about? I didn't do anything.

I called her and thankfully she picked up after a few beeps.

It took me a while to recognize her voice, she sounded hoarse like she had been crying.

Olivia, what going on, I don't understand that text. I was fine without you Leon, why did you come back into my life?

Everything's a mess. I hate you! she said and hung up.

Was I having an ear problem or did I hear her just fine? What did I do? I tried calling her back but it went straight to voicemail.

Now I was more confused and frustrated and full of questions.What exactly did I do?

Few weeks later...….

I gripped the steering tightly as my brain and heart got into an argument.

I was currently on my way to Olivia house. It was like Olivia vanished off the face of the earth. I didn't get any update from her or her agency.

I was becoming more and more restless every day. I made one last turn and arrived at the main gate of the estate.

I checked the address Rachel sent me again, making sure I was in front of the right house.

I took a deep breath as I knocked on the door, it felt like forever until she finally opened the door.

Leon? What are you doing here? How did you know where I live? She said.

Can I at least come in? She reluctantly moved and I took the initiative and went in.

Olivia's P.O.V

 Why are you here Leon? I clearly told you I don't want to see you.

You went off the radar and I was just worried about you? He said, and I scoffed.

Why were you worried about me? I am your ex wife Leon, we don't have anything to do with each other so please just leave me alone. You are making things difficult for me.

And what exactly did I do to make things difficult for you? He said. Ever since you appeared in my life again, my relationship has been a mess.

You really are in a relationship with that guy? He said, raising his voice a little bit.

Why? Don't I have the right to be with someone else? The last time I checked I was a free woman, bounded to one.

I'm sorry I didn't mean it like that, he quickly said.

 I don't know how this sounds but….I still love you Olivia, I want you back, I need you back in my life
