Chapter 0118 OLIVIA I looked at the man beforeand I couldn't help but feel lucky and blessed. Not many would want a damage woman like me, but he knew everything, and he still wanted me. "Marcus, this means I can't carry a child and..." "Does it also mean you don't have eggs?" I frowned. "olivia, you have everything we need to have a biological child if that is what we want in the future. We can get a surrogate to carry the baby for us. Also, we can adopt if that is what we want. You have no excuse to refuse to marry me, at least you can't use that one.” I looked at him, he had everything in the world at his disposal, he had the money, the looks, the charm, everything! He could get any woman he wanted but he was choosing me. I didn't understand. "Olivia, I love you, scratch that. I am in love with you. I always have been since high school." He took my hand in his, givinga tender look. "When I was away, I had people keeping an eye on you. I was still studying myself and had no access to my money, but my uncle agreed to have people look out for you. Then you got married to Nick unexpectedly. I was hurt Olivia that I didn't want to know how happy you were with him. I pulled the people back and worked hard." He caressed my hand looking at it as if it was the most interesting thing he had ever seen. "Then my operations manager chere for business a couple of months after you got arrested and he toldabout it. It was in passing but I knew I had to cback. Especially when they said Nick was the one who sent you there." He looked up at me. "I am sorry I didn't cback sooner, just wanted to make sure everything was alright on that side before coming back. I knew my stay here would be longer." Why would he blhimself for something he didn't do? I didn't even expect him to cback, hell! I didn't even know where the man was after he left school one day and never cback.
"Let us not dwell on the past, it's done." He offereda small smile. "God! You are beautiful." He suddenly said with a wide smile makingblush. “I am going htoday; I don't care what the doctors say but before I leave. I want to know." I sighed. "Yes, Marcus, I will marry you" he looked atlike he didn't hear me. “I think I am going to need you to repeat that, what did you say?" I laughed. "I said I will marry you." he let go of my hand and turned to search under his pillow then he brought out a small box.

Well, wealthy people could just call jewellers, and th would bring whatever they want to them. maybe that was what he did because there was no way he went out of the hospital to buy it. Or did he have it all along? "Can I put this on?" "Of course!" I gave him my hand and he slid the ring in. it fit perfectly like it was made just for me. I lifted my hand admiring it. it was a work of art, beautiful and sparkling. "Giveslove woman. I worked hard for it." I laughed going in for a kiss.
He pulled out then looked atas if he couldn't believe I agreed. "I love you, in whatever happens. Please don't forget that." I nodded then he pressed the button next to his bed. A nurse crunning. "Get my discharge papers ready, I am leaving." The poor nurse looked shocked, but I just nodded, and she walked away. There was no point in trying to reason with him, the man had already made up his mind and no doctor was going to stop him from leaving if he wanted Jo.
Soon he was dressed and ready to leave. Just as we walked out of the ward, I saw Ethan and Nick walking towards the elevators. I hoped Nick wouldn't givegrief about any of this. The man had done enough already.

Then there was Ethan, I didn't know what he thought would happen after he stole a kiss from me, did he maybe think that I would suddenly fall head over hills in love with him? he would be stupid if that was what he thought. He was Nick's best friend, and I never saw him any other way than a friend. When we got to the elevator, they were still standing there, I got the feeling that they were waiting for us. But they didn't see us. Nick looked cold and distant with a bandage on his hand.
Ethan looked mad, really mad. "Gentlemen." Marcus greeted then look my hand. Nick followed hism action, and his eyes lingered on the ring. Sadness covered his face, but he said nothing. He already said what he wanted to say. There was nothing more to say now. "Why the long faces? It's a beautiful day and am going home. Life is good, you should enjoy it." Marcus said to the friends when they didn't respond. Nick didn't spare him a glance, he focused on the closed elevator door like we were not even there.

Ethan chuckled dryly. "Enjoy it while it lasts Marcus, but I can assure you, it won't last" I hated what Ethan said, I han looked at him and his eyes were already on me, he shook his head then looked away. I wished it was back then when I used to care what others thought of me. but it wasn, that thas long gone. The new Olivia, the convict, doesn't care what others thought of her. Marcus wantedas I was and I was not about to let anyone ruin things for me. I was determined to seek my own happiness and to hell with everyone.
Life was too short and in a moment's notice, it could be taken away from you. so, I decided to enjoy what I had with Marcus, as long as it lasts as Ethen said. The elevator doors opened, and Marcus stepped in first and I followed.
"Coming? Oh, wait. Letenjoy my life with my woman. While it lasts as you said Ethan, I never know what Nick is going to throw at me. so, wait for the next one."
