Revenge After Divorce Novel by Black Rose

OLIVIA

“When did you decide that our partnership was over?” Mr Ryan asked, I knew from his facial expression the day we started the partnership a year ago that he was willing to do anything to bring the Jones’s down. That was when I started looking for another investor.

“I decided the moment you started using dirty tricks to get their contracts and approaching their clients behind their backs to sign with you. I told you from the start that if this was going to work then there should not be any dirty tricks. But you went back on your word and hired one of his people to work for you. I can’t work with someone like that.”

He chuckled. “I thought you of all people would understand why I did what I did. James had a hand in my wife’s death and Nick sent you to prison for something you didn’t do. I thought you would want revenge as much as I do.”

I leaned forward. “Mr Ryan, I want revenge as much as you do but I want to get it the right way. I don’t want to be involved in corporate espionage and illegal monitoring and phone tapping of people’s personal phones. That is not who I am, and I don’t want to go back to prison. The truth is that I have too much to lose Mr Ryan, and you don’t.”

I could see how angry he was. “I should have known that you are just like them, you want out of the deal, then it will cost you to buy me out. It will be double the amount I invested, and I will be taking my business as well.”

“Very well then Mr Ryan, you will have the contract before the end of business.” I could see the shock in his eyes when I said that. He thought I wouldn’t be able to afford it. “Paying me that much money and losing my business will bankrupt you, Olivia. Are you willing to take that chance?”

‘t worry a

I nodded standing up. me, Mr Ryan, I will survive. It’s what I do.” I bid him farewell before leaving his offices. A car I had become familiar with was standing there when I got out. I went and got inside. “How did it go?” he asked.

“He was not happy, but I think he wants to see how I will survive without his business. More than anything, he wants to see me coming back to him. begging for him to give me his business again.” He scoffed. “That is never going to happen. These people have used you enough Olivia, I will not allow them to use and abuse you like that, ever again.”

His words gave me comfort. We drove to his offices and got inside. “Sir, Mr. Jones senior is here to see you. I put him in meeting room two.” I frowned. Why was he there? “Go to the boardroom and watch us from there.” I nodded going to the boardroom.

Marcas Walker, my high school sweetheart.

I met him by accident in summer strand four months ago. I was there on business when we bumped into each other in a hotel lobby. I didn’t. recognize him at first because he was taller and more handsome than before.

We got talking and he asked about my imprisonment. He like everyone else read about it in the news, but he was on his way abroad when the news broke.‘

He thought he was going to come back sooner but starting his business there took longer than expected because of permits and all that. when we met, he had just landed in Summer Strand four days before.

A week later after I came back, he came to me with evidence of everything Mr Ryan was doing. I thought we were winning those contracts fair only to find out that he had an inside man feeding him all the information he needed about Jones enterprise’s strategies, and he put tabs on their phones.

I confronted Brandon about it, and he told me it was business and nothing. personal. I told Marcus I wanted to get out and he said he would be willing to back me. We signed a contract three months ago and then money was in my business account a day later.

Since then, we have been looking for new business and getting things ready to buy Mr Ryan out. Today when I went there, I thought he was going to deny all the accusations, but he didn’t. “Mr Jones, to what do I owe this visit?” Marcas asked as he took a seat.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

“You have been making a fool of me Mr Walker and I want to know why?” that did not look or sound like dad at all. “I am not sure what you are talking about Mr Jones. I don’t even know you for that matter.” He chuckled.

But I could see the threatening look in his eyes. “You know me well enough to think you can approach my clients behind my back and get away with it.” That was Mr Ryan not Marcas but because the business is now associated with Marcas, and no one knew about Mr Ryan. All his dealings will fall on Marcas.

“It is business Mr Jones, if your clients could jump ship so easy then they were not loyal to begin with. I don’t understand why you would degrade yourself like this coming here for people like that. it is beneath you sir.” Father’s eyes turned cold.

“You don’t want to take me on son, believe me when I tell you this. It will not end well for you. so, be warned, don’t play with fire or you will get burned.” Marcas stood and walked towards father. He stood as well and waited for him.

They were like two bulls in one kraal fighting for territory. “Mr Jones, if the fire is too hot for you to handle then I suggest you get out now because there is a new player in the game and things are still going to get hotter from here on. And never threaten me again because you don’t know what I am capable of.”
