Chapter 22
An hour after Jaime and Kylie had left, someone knocked on Olivia's door and without thinking, she opened the door.
Laura stepped inside the room confidently while eyeing Olivia.
"How may I help you?" Olivia asked.
Laura eyed her more and tried to control her anger.
"I'm Laura Davilla, Jaime's fiancée" she replied and showed Olivia her diamond ring.
Olivia gasped when she heard this and had no idea what to say.
"It's obvious he didn't tell you that."
"I don't know who you're talking about" Olivia lied.
"You don't know who I'm talking about?" Laura asked and smiled, "But he was here throughout the night."
"Are you stalking me!?"
"Stalking you? Stalking you? I was stalking my man and it's better you stay away from him."
"I still don't know who you're talking about."
"Say that to yourself or to your daughter. I'm not here to cause trouble but nobody messes around what is mine. Jaime is mine and you should stay away from him," Laura said and walked out of the house.
When she was gone, Olivia sighed heavily and slowly sat on the nearest couch to her.
"So, Dermot is engaged," she thought, "and he was acting like the angel last night and I even fell into his stupid trap. I'm the dumbest lady in the whole world. Olivia, do you think any man in his right mind is going to choose you over that lady? You're not up to her standard when it comes to beauty or fashion, who are you to compete with her?"
Her phone rang and she came back to the reality. She slowly got out of the couch and started heading to her bedroom where her phone was. As she was heading to her bedroom, she unconsciously used the back of her hand to wipe her tears away. She had no idea that she was even crying.
When she got to her room, she checked the caller ID, and it was Jaime. She ignored his call and turned on her 'do not disturb.'
Olivia fell asleep with tears in her eyes and slowly opened her eyes when the doorbell started ringing. She checked the visitor through the peephole and her eyes became wider when she saw the person that was standing in front of the door.
She slowly opened the door and said, "Bianca."
Bianca stepped inside the house with her travelling bag in her hand "When I saw this house, I thought you sent me the wrong address. What happened to you?" Bianca asked worriedly. "Why is there a bandage around your head?"
"Oh this?" Olivia said and touched the bandage. "It's nothing."
"Don't give me that."
"Okay," Olivia said and threw up her hands. "I drank too much on Saturday and fell. I hit my head pretty hard and called Jaime, who called his doctor."
"When are you going to stop drinking?" Bianca asked.
"I'm trying sis"
"And what is the story behind this house?" Bianca asked while looking around the living room "Jaime gave it to us"
"Jaime?"
"That is the name Dermot is living under. He changed his name when he left"
"To Jaime?"
"Yes. Jaime Scott."
"And I hope you don't think that I didn't notice the tearstain"
Olivia looked at Bianca unsurprisingly. Bianca was known for noticing the tiniest detail "Did he hurt you?" Bianca asked "His fiancée was here few hours ago"
"And why are you sad about that? It's not as if something is going on between you two?" Bianca's face fell when she saw Olivia's face. It was obvious that something was going on between them "or is there anything going on between you two?" Bianca asked for confirmation "Not until last night" Olivia sobbed "I fell into his trap again. I'm too weak"
"Stop blaming yourself" Bianca said, got out of the couch and went to sit next to Olivia. She hugged Olivia who was sobbing "It wasn’t your fault. It was his"
"It's my fault. I should have searched for him on the internet. He's everywhere. He's on Google. He's on Facebook. I should have searched for him, but I stopped doing that a long time ago when I thought he was dead"
"What about Kylie's identity?"
"I told him everything. Everything! I am so stupid"
"It's okay baby" Bianca petted "It's okay"
"I don't want to see him ever again" Olivia sobbed "Is he coming here today?"
"Yeah. He always comes here in the morning and in the afternoon. He always drives Kylie to school in the morning and always drive her home in the afternoon"
"Okay. Go to your room. Go and sleep. I will talk to him when he is here"
"All right sis"

Laura trailed Jaime from his office to Kylie's school to Olivia's house with anger flowing in her veins "When I was small, a friend of mine told me that cartoons have their own country" Kylie said while smiling at Jaime as they were heading to the door "And you believed her?" Jaime asked while smiling back at her "Him" Kylie corrected "At first, I did but when I asked Mom, she said it wasn't true"
Jaime rang the doorbell "Did any of your friends told you such a lie when you were a little boy?"
Before Jaime could reply to Kylie's question, the door opened. But instead of seeing Olivia behind the door, Jaime saw someone else "Aunty!" Kylie screamed when she saw the woman that opened the door and ran into her arms. "You didn't tell us that you're coming"
"Don't mind me Kylie" Bianca said
"Good afternoon" Jaime said to Bianca quietly "Good afternoon. Nice seeing you again"
"Wait!" Kylie said and they both looked at her "Have you met before? I was just about to introduce him to you"
"Yes" Bianca replied "Now go to your room. I will join you in five minutes"
"Okay. I will be waiting for you"
When Bianca was sure that Kylie was gone, she looked into Jaime's blue eyes and said, "I would like to talk to you. Outside."
Jaime had no idea what was going on, but he followed Bianca outside.
"My sister told me what happened between you guys," Bianca said.
Jaime blinked. "It's—"
Bianca cut him off. "Stop using my sister. You don't love her. It's obvious you don't love her. So, stay away from her."
"I love her," Jaime said confidently to Bianca.
"You love her?" Bianca asked and Jaime nodded "And you want to be in a relationship with her?" Jaime nodded again. "But you're engaged to someone else."
Jaime looked at her surprisingly.
"Don't give me that look. It's all over the internet. It's better you stay away from my sister. Stop using her. She is not your toy."
"Let me explain."
"There is nothing to explain. Stay away from us."
