Revenge After Divorce (Olivia and Nick) novel Chapter 149

hell happened to him to make him drink this much anyway?” Owen looked at me with pity. This time I didn’t mind the look; I was pitiful indeed. “He lost his wife.” The way Owen said it was like she died or something. 

“That is bad man, I am sorry to hear that. I can’t imagine what it must feel like. I don’t know what I would do if my Elsa died. I think I would go crazy.” Olivia got married today, this day marks the day I officially lost my heart. How could I even think of alcohol poisoning when I didn’t have a heart? 

I could have alcohol poisoning any day, it could kill me even, I wouldn’t mind. At least this hole and emptiness inside me would be gone. When I got to Summer Strand everything was upside down and there was a lot of work to be done. 

I buried myself into work and tried to forget about everything and New Village. I would work the whole day without thinking about it or feeling it but the moment I left the office it would come back. It was this emptiness inside that could not be filled by anything. 

I tried different things over the past month to try and ease it, but nothing worked. It made it worse instead. I had the same feeling and lingering loneliness when Olivia was arrested. Back then I would tell myself that she would be back one day, and we would be alright. It would ease then, and I would live another day. 

This time, it was not going away, and I think it was because I knew that she was never coming back. That I was alone and that she left me. this time the loneliness, the emptiness will linger until God knows when. I didn’t know what to do with it. it just fucking hurt, so much. 

Owen came to me. “Sir, it’s your mother again.” I sighed laying my head on the counter. “She is going to keep calling if I don’t answer, isn’t she?” mother, mother, mother. What could you possibly want now? I divorced Olivia just like you wanted, she is not in my life anymore. What is it now? 

I took the phone from Owen. “Mother.” There was silence on the other end. “Okay then, it’s clear you don’t want to talk.” 

“Nick.” She called my name just as I was about to cut the call. “Yes, mother.” She sighed. “I have apologized to her.” I kept quiet. “I was wrong to blame everything on her.” I still kept my mouth shut. “Please, come visit. I miss you or I could come over and spent a few days with you.” she had got to be joking. 

“I am busy mother; I won’t have time for you even if you come.” Silence followed my words. “Fight for her.” I chuckled getting pissed. “What do you think I have been doing since she got out of jail? I tried mother, God knows I tried. But it didn’t work. All I managed to do is push her into the arms of another man. What more can I do now anyway because she is married?” 

‘enly. I stood 

I laughed mockingly. “She is not mine to fight for anymore, mother and I think you apologized a little too late. The damage has been done and there is no fixing it.” I cut the call and felt suffocated in the bar then stumbled outside. 

I stood there looking at the sky. “Don’t punish me like this I said as if God could hear me, if there was a God. “I have already lost her, isn’t that punishment enough?” I wished whatever being was out there could talk back. 

“At least take away the hole inside me, it’s killing me the most.” I sat down feeling defeated with my head between my legs. “It hurts, please take it away. I can’t bare it anymore.” A tear dropped from my eye then another

and another. “Can I join you?” I heard a voice. 

I lifted my head to look at the woman. I didn’t care that I was crying. She was a beautiful little thing. “I know how you feel, and I came to this bar to try and numb myself, it doesn’t work, does it?” I just looked at her as she sat 

next to me.
