Chapter 168 OLIVIA I didn't know how to feel seeing Sandra like that. I felt hot suddenly and suffocating in that room. As much as I wanted her away fromand my family. Seeing her like that affectedin ways I never thought it would. The woman was my friend, 1 grew up with her, did many things with her and even shared my secrets with her.
She was like a sister I never had. That was until recently, of course. What she did tohurt and it still haunted me. But I also, can't say that I was pleased to see her like that, yes, knowing that she was locked up and couldn't do anything to hurtwas a relief. But I wished I listened to Marcus and never gone to see her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI felt his hand on mine snappingout of my thoughts. "Do you need anything else?" I wished there was something that could be done forto unsee what I had already seen in that room. that woman in there was not Sandra but a shell of someone that she used to be. It was not nice seeing a person like that and knowing that you did that to them.
"No, love, I don't need anything else. Apparently, I didn't need to see Sandra as much as I thought I did." He gavea sad look and that madefeel even worse. "At least now you know for sure that she won't hurt you again." I nodded, that I knew very well. I saw it for myself.
"I would like to go hto my son." We planned on going to a movie, but I didn't feel like it anymore. I thought seeing her was going to makefeel relieved, but it didn't, instead, it gotfeeling like shit and I didn't like it. Marcus didn't say a word, he turned the car around and drove us home.
When we got home, Ethan was there, again. I sighed now feeling annoyed. The man has been coming over to my house every day since Samuel was taken. I understood at first but now it was just annoying. "Don't do that, he went through hell just like you did when that boy was taken Nick got to participate in getting him home, but he didn't and now he feels like he failed to protect him." "I get that but to be in our heveryday though?" Marcus turned fully to look at me. "Yes, until his heart settles and until you talk to him and make him understand that Samuel's kidnapping was not his fault and that he didn't fail him or you. that is all he needs to hear." How selfish was I? Ethan was more than just Nick's friend, but he was mine too and my son knew him as his father. Why didn't I consider his feelings about the whole thing. Samuel spent the first two years of his life with him, being raised by him and yet when he got kidnapped. I didn't even think about Ethan and how he must have felt about it.
"Thank you for being here and always puttingstraight when I seem to lose my way. I didn't think about the situation with Ethan like that. I just saw an annoying man, but I didn't think about how he must be feeling after what happened." I had the best husband in the world.
"Now then my love, go in there and talk to him. I will take Samuel, and we will give you tto talk." We walked inside holding hands, Ethan paid us no mind as he continued to play with Samuel. When Marcus asked Samuel to leave with him. Ethan gavea pained expression.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCalm down Ethan, I just need to talk, and we can't do that in front of our son, now can we? That was what I wanted to say to him, but Marcus beatto it. he patted his shoulder and nodded at him. I didn't know if it was a men's language or what, but Ethan sighed relieved after he and Marcus shared that look and the pat on the shoulder.
I gave Marcus a frown, but he only responded with a smile and walked out with Samuel going to God knows where. "Want a drink?" he shook his head but then quickly stood. "I will get it myself. I might regret not getting it after talking to you." I chuckled but when I looked at him, I saw that it was no laughing matter./ "Why would you think you will need a drink after talking to me?" as people we go around offending people without even realizing. There might be something I have been doing that offends Ethan and I didn't even know I was doing it.

"Olivia, you have a way of taking things that I love away from me. Now, letget a drink and I wil cback and hear what else you are going to take. It better not be my son though because I will never forgive you for that." I watched as he walked to the kitchen and poured himself something to drink.
It hurt to hear that was the kind of person I had been to Ethan. He had been nothing but good to me, but then again, it is said that a person will be good to your for as long as they need you. after that, they forget that you even exist. Another saying is that dogs are more loyal than humans, dogs didn't forget when humans would forget a person who helped them and never look back. I did the sto Ethan, when I was in jail, he was my saviour and even gota doctor when I gave birth. He made sure my baby was born healthy and even did as I asked. Keeping him from his father, his best friend. Took my side over his friend's. and how did I repay him?
Saying he was annoying. When he cback, I met him halfway and threw myself at him hugging him." am sorry I forgot what you mean toto our son Samuel, how you must have felt when he was taken. I am sorry I pushed you aside and disregarded your feelings in this whole thing."
