Chapter 37_ They are real!
Alexa pulled Asher back behind a wall, her face paled when she spotted Damien fighting off the useless men Asher hired..
“Crap! my brother is here.. tell your men to stop! this wasn’t part of the plan”
Asher shrugged off her hold on him with a snort, he really had no intention of telling his men to back down.
“This is more of a revenge for what he did to my sister!” he seconded.
“That is also my brother your men are fighting with! what is he gets hurt?!”
Asher turned around and started walking away before he murmured.. “You should have thought about that in the first place.. princess!”

Damien shot a look at Olivia who still believed that he was the one who orchestrated all these..
“What is wrong with you?”
A kick was sent to his leg when he wasn’t paying any attention to them..
Olivia raised her palm to her mouth holding back a gasp at the sudden attack..
“Oops! is this also part of the script?” She sarcastically commented as she watched him single handedly take out the three men..
“This show is really boring.. now tell me how a lean figure like yourself took out those three men all alone”
Damien dusted his hands satisfied to see them on the ground in pain..
“You’ve got to be kidding me!” he remarked
Olivia rolled her eyes with a loud scoff, her face suddenly paled when more men appeared each with a long stick and bottle..
“Oh there are more.. isn’t this a little bit dangerous? I mean there’s no need to convince me this much..”
Damien sighed in frustration, just who on earth cursed his day? he failed to understand how her silly mind works!
They were in the midst of a very dangerous situation and she still thought this was all his doing??
Great!
“Will you please zip it? if you feel like it’s a show.. then I think you should just watch it quietly!”
He bent his neck sideways easing every tensed and stiff muscle..
“Oh boy this is crazy!” Damien murmured as he took a stance..
Olivia screamed when a bottle broke next to her foot, she ran to hide behind a ton of red bricks probably abandoned for some reasons..
She shielded herself with the bricks which served as a barricade for her small frame..
The sounds of grunts, groans, bones breaking, and screams reached her ear..
“Oh my goodness! they are real!”
She suddenly yelled out which reached Damien’s ears who was currently fighting off two men at once..
“I told you!” he retorted panting with each swerve he took..
Olivia screamed out again when a bottle was thrown on the brick where she was hiding..
She noticed that there were a few more bottles that laid next to her..
She looked back at Damien who was obviously going to lose this fight because he was outnumbered..
More men oozed in from nowhere in particular, she took one of the bottles and threw it straight after securing her target..
Her eyes widened when the bottle struck Damien’s back after he moved..
“What the heck?!” he yelled out at her in frustration..
“Sorry.. that was a slip of my fingers”
She picked another one and this time it met the head of the man fighting with Damien..
“Yes!” she exclaimed when the bottle met the target who yelped out in pain holding his head in pain..
Olivia walked out of her hiding place and picked up a stick which one of the men writhing on the ground dropped..
She swiped it against the butt of some of the men who were all going after Damien..
Another car pulled over and immediately, several men in black suit came out rushing to the scene fighting off the bad guys..
Damien was led out of their midst safely by one of the guards..
“We are sorry it took so late to come..”
The guard noticed his boss wasn’t paying attention to him except he was staring to one direction, where Olivia was busy hitting the wood against them..
“You little scoundrels! you dared tried to hurt me! where is my son!”
Two guards held Olivia away from the henchmen who were already writhing on the ground in pain…..
“Hmph!”
Damien bursted out laughing but as soon as she came closer to him, his laugh turned into a frown….
“Take them away and make sure they spill out every single thing out.. including Kelvin’s location”Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Boss the kid has been found”
Damien and Olivia snapped their gaze to the guard who just spoke..
“Really?”

The living room in the Sterling’s Villa was peaceful except for Anita’s overbearing wails..
“My little baby boy… who knows what they are making him pass through?”
Aldrin pulled his wife into his comforting arms, he mentally rolled his eyes at her tantrums..
He wondered how she still found the voice to screech out loud, it’s been two hours already and damn! her high pitched voice was still surprisingly loud!
“Will you keep quiet?!”
Anita was startled at first but then her eyes rolled when she saw her father in-law glaring at her..
“My son didn’t take my call at first ring! that means something terrible has happened to him and you’re not worried?!”
Alexa who just came in seething in rage walked past them like they were invisible to her..
“Young lady!”
She halt her movement and turned to the person who called out to her, she lifted one of her thin eyebrows..
“Yes? did I do something wrong again?”
Bernard snapped his gaze to his son who was still trying to pacify his overbearing wife.. “I thought i gave you a task to list out the most eligible bachelors in the city!”
Alexa’s eyes widened when the conversation took a different turn..
“What?!”
“You know what?! since your brother has managed to sabotage the alliance we had with the Brown’s.. I think the only way to resolve this is for you to get engaged to Asher!”
A loud gasp filled the room “Are you kidding me?!” she barked and in the meantime, she glanced towards her mum who was quiet about the old man’s decision..
Wasn’t she always against the Sterling’s and Brown’s being tied together by marriage? what happened now? or does this rule applies only when her precious son was involved?!
“Mum!”
“Aldrin” Anita called out gently..
Aldrin smiled sheepishly looking at his father “Well dad.. if she doesn’t want to.. I guess you can just let her be right?”
A soft footstep was heard as a lady approached the people seated..
“Hello family!”

Olivia caught sight of Damien’s injured knuckles and winced..
“You’re hurt” She pointed out..
Damien raised his knuckles a bit and shrugged nonchalantly..
“It’s nothing”
She caught hold of his hand and when he tried to pull it out, she sent a sharp glare to his face..
“I had no idea that you’re a poor fighter…”
“Huh?” Damien asked confusedly with a brow raised..
“You look malnourished compared to those guys you were fighting a while ago..”
Damien pulled his hand out of her grip, he suddenly had the urge to push her out of the moving car..
“If only you had listened to me and not proved stubborn, this wouldn’t have happened! all these is your fault!”
“My fault?! ever since you came into my life! my whole life has been filled with drama! every one of your enemies and family pour out their frustrations on me! just because you found out that Kelvin is your son, that doesn’t actually prove anything”
She took a sharp breath in “my son will never bear your family’s name! and you surely don’t have a right over him!”
The car tires screeched harshly on the ground as the car came to a halt..
