Chapter 43 Back Home


    ~ Olivia''s POV


    "Olivia!" My mom yelled out in surprise. "I missed you, honey,e give me a hug."


    Still confused at Miss B''s presence, I left my luggage by the door and moved over to where my


    parents were seated to give them a hug.


    “Did you enjoy your trip, Olivia?” Miss B asked once I was finished hugging my parents and seated.


    “It… was fine,” I said and smiled awkwardly.


    She smiled at that and there was a few minutes of silence after that.


    Why on earth is she here? I really hope it doesn''t have to do with the triplets.


    “But why are you here?” I asked her.


    As she cleared her throat to say something, my dad cut in and turned to me.


    "She is here to ry the Alpha’s message. The Alpha wants you back in the pce.” He said.


    No! No way. I''m not going back there.


    My mom must have seen the panicked look on my face because she immediately turned to me.


    “Olivia, my dear, I already told her that the decision lies with you. You can choose to stay away from


    the pce and you can decide to go back there, just know that we will ept whatever it is you


    choose to do, no matter what” She said, stroking my hair.


    “Olivia, I must confess that your absence has been truly felt at the pce and not just by me. And


    I’m sure you feel the same way. I know that the punishment was hard on you, but I want you to


    know that the Alpha believed in you and I did too. The princes have been pestering their father day


    and night, doing their best to help you toe back to the pce.” Miss B said, smiling.


    Help mee back to the pce? I never wanted to work there in the first ce! And I''m sure they


    are just bored, they must miss having a verbal punching bag.


    “Don''t they hate me? During the entire time I worked in the pce, they had always found a reason


    toin about my work. And I highly doubt that they want me back as their mate. The only


    reason why they want me back is because they have no one to bully and mess with.” I said bluntly.


    “They should just have their beautiful and innocent Helen serve them,” I added.


    Miss B only chuckled and shook her head at me, giving me a knowing look. I turned away and my


    gaze fell on my mom who was under the table, seemingly searching for something.


    “What’s wrong, Mom?" I asked her.


    “Oh, I almost forgot this.” She said, bringing out a small, sparkly pink envelope and giving it to me. I


    opened the envelope and saw that it was an invitation card from Helen. Apparently, she was having


    her birthday party the next weekend.


    “What should I do with this?” I asked her.


    “Helen’s father was here this afternoon. He brought this and asked us to give it to you. He was so


    sorry and asked that you attend her daughter’s birthday and sort out any misunderstandings you


    might have had with her.” She said.


    “Mom!” I cried in surprise.


    “You told me not to talk to Helen and here you are epting a birthday invite from her of all things,


    encouraging me to work things out with her,” I said, almost in tears.


    “It’s okay honey. I know what she did really hurt you and your mother and I were hurt as well. But


    we couldn''t just refuse to ept the invitation card, especially since her father hade all this


    way to give it to you. I’m sure he wants you guys to make up as well.” My dad said.


    “Dad. Helen and her father insulted our family. She insulted you and made me take the fall for


    everything. Her father spoke badly of you when he was punishing me. Giving me this means


    nothing. If anything, I''m worried. Why can’t you see that they are up to no good? I’m not attending


    any party nor am I returning back to the pce.” I said angrily and dashed off to my room without


    waiting for a reply.

    My mom and Miss B came after me. I couldn''t lock my door because of how rude it would be of me,


    so I just closed it, hoping they wouldn''te in. After a couple of knocks that I refused to answer,


    the door opened and they walked in silently. Iid on my bed still angry and then I turned my back


    on them.


    My mom sat at the edge of my bed and started massaging my leg. “I’m so sorry you have to


    experience all this because you have such weak parents but you know I already told you that the


    decisions lie with you. I will ept anything you say.” She said.


    Just then I quietly turned to them. Miss B only smiled at me and also agreed with what my mom


    said. I sat up, “I will go to the pce tomorrow to talk to Alpha Damon. I will let him know of my


    intention of not returning to the pce and I am still not going to attend Helen’s birthday.” I said.


    “Anything you wish my dear.” My mom said,


    “Are you still angry at me and your dad?” She asked.


    I smiled gently and gave her a hug. Miss B smiled and told me that she would ry my message to


    the Alpha.


    “But the princes missed you even if they wouldn''t admit it. You can''t imagine the silly things they did


    and the antics they got up to while you were away.” She added, smiling.


    One part of me wanted to know what they really did while the other part reminded me I had no right


    to be curious. I tried to shake it off but I ended up blurting out, “What’s that? What did they do?”


    Miss B smiled knowingly. “Well, for starters, no maid in the pce could do anything right. It''s either


    that the coffee was too cold or too bitter or that their shirts were not ironed properly." She drew


    closer to me and mock-whispered, "I even heard Lucien saying to a maid - Can''t you make it like


    Olivia does? They even agreed to wee someone theypletely dislike at an event that''s


    coming up soon just so that their father will agree to their demand that he convince you toe


    back to the pce. Plus, they wanted you to attend Helen’s birthday party. I heard that they were


    even trying to apologize to you,” She continued.


    Don''t fall for it, Olivia! Remember the promise you made to yourself. No more being bullied, no more


    longing for them, no more working at the pce and no more interacting with Helen.


    I smiled a bit and quickly hid the smile. "I can''t believe they were truly sorry. I’m sure Logan was the


    only one feeling sorry. He called me non-stop during my trip. Well, Lucas did too… just a couple of


    times,” I said.


    We all smiled and then Miss B went back to the pce as it waste. I told my mom about my


    experience in Gwen’s town. I even told her about Skyle and she was happy that I made a new


    friend.


    When we eventually got tired, I told her that I would skip dinner as I was already full. She exited my


    room after covering me with the nket. I couldn’t stop thinking about the Alpha’s message and the


    things Miss B told me the triplets had done.


    Just then Skyle called me. He told me he was a bit mad at me for not calling him as I had promised.


    I asked him how he knew I was already back home and then he told me that he and Gwen already


    chatted and she told him that Josh already called her and told her we are home already.


    Nosy lovebirds. I thought to myself even as I smiled at Josh and Gwen''s adorable interactions.


    I told him what happened and exined why I hadn''t been able to call him. To my surprise, he


    advised me to return back to the pce. He asked me if I loved the princes but I was unable to say


    anything as I wasn’t sure if I had fallen for them or not. I only knew that I was always angry


    whenever they were talking to Helen. He told me never to allow Helen to take my mates away from


    me and he even implored me to attend her birthday party.


    “Do anything to im your mates.” His words resonated through my ear after he hung up the call


    and I eventually slept off after several minutes of tossing and turning thinking about what Skyle had


    told me to do.
