Chapter 312 

ELODIE 

What was I thinking? Olivia was right, I should have been there when that incident took place. I did go there to take care of the kids, then why was it that I felt the need to go out there by myself. What was it that compelled me to leave what I went there to do and go after criminals. 

Luke was right, I shouldn’t have gone. I should have focused on being a grandmother. But what was the point of what if’s now? the damage had already been done. There was no going back. I took out my phone and dialled Luke. 

I was sitting in the car in front of Olivia’s house. “Elodie, what now?” he sounded annoyed by the mere fact that I called. Like my brother didn’t want to hear from me, which hurt. “Why didn’t you try harder to stop me from going out there and hunting those people?” a sighed left him. 

“What happened?” I felt a lump in my throat forming and a lone tear escaped my eye. I wiped it off. I had no right to cry, I got myself in that position, what right did I have to cry? “It doesn’t matter what happed, but it made me realized that I have not changed much from the reckless teenager I was before.” 

I did whatever I wanted back then because I had Luke, he was always there to clean up after me. I got used to that and when I left home, I had my husband to clean up after me. having to take responsibility for my actions like that was not something I was used to. 

“Elodie, I know that things didn’t go as planned with the guys and that ended with the shooting at Olivia’s house 

}) 

I cut him short, I knew what happened, I knew my failures, I didn’t need him to repeat them to me. “That is not why I called, Luke. I don’t need you to remind me of what I happened, I know, I was there.” 

“Then what do you want from me?” he snapped, he was also frustrated. Sometimes I forgot that for him. it was not only Olivia who was put at risk, it was his grandson too. Samuel. “I told you not to go but because you are a hardhead, you didn’t listen. Now things didn’t go as you planned. You are blaming me, for what?” 

His words hit hard, I knew I was wrong to blame him but damnit. Who else was I going to cry and vent to if not him. “Olivia might never let me see my grandson again.” I told him, my voice low and heavy with emotion. 

It hadn’t been long since Olivia came clean about Samuel being my grandson and soon after, they are left New Village. That was my chance to build a relationship with my grandson but me being stubborn. I left him when he needed me most. 

I thought just sitting back was not enough, I thought being out there and making things happen by myself was going to put an end to the whole thing. I was wrong. Those men managed to slip through our fingers and go shoot up a house. 

The very same place I thought I was protecting by going out there myself. my grandson whom I thought would be safer if I handled things myself, almost got killed. What use was I to them then? 

I wouldn’t blame Olivia if she never let me see him again. “You know Olivia is not vindictive. Eventually she will let you see him. for now, go home and give her time to deal with everything that happening.” 

My brother’s words comforted me, but the thought of all the time away from them hurt me. Nick was never going to be happy with what I had done, what I had allowed to happen. He too, would be angry for a long time. 

“Thank you, for the comforting word brother. But sitting back and waiting is going to be extremely hard for me. I have already lost so much time with both Nick and his son. He even moved to summer strand and now this.” 

“Now you are annoying!” Luke snapped making me remove the phone from my ear and looked at it. w the comforting me a minute ago? “Feeling sorry for yourself and acting like a victim is unlike you. take responsibility

for your actions and stop bothering me.” 

He paused, I could hear him breathing on the other end of the line. I on the other hand was too shocked to say anything. “Elodie, I have a lot to deal with here. I don’t have time for this now call me unless it’s a matter of life
