20 The second file

"There could be a possibility...." Lucas interrupted the stunning silence in the room.

Romano just shook his head in disapproval, "No it should not.... not be her...."

Watson patted Romano's shoulder, "We all will watch for her safety. Don't worry about it."

Romano sighed and moved towards the window, staring at the grey sky which reminded him of Olivia's eyes, "I have to worry for her safety, because I'm the danger in her life."

Deandre could relate to his pain the most.

He was a monster in Susan's life, he took away her virtue and then left her.... to never see her again.

He was miserable now, he desperately wanted to search her but he was shitlessly scared to face her.

He could not face her after what he did....

She did not deserve to be cheated on, hell she didn't even deserve a monster like him...

Romano was the same, Olivia changed because of him.

Whenever he closes his eyes, Olivia appears in his mind, wearing that pink lingerie which got his heart in a frenzy.

Then her words about him comes haunting him...

What hurt him the most was that she was sleeping with men!!! And she was even planning to sleep with Christano....

He was mad, angry, frustrated but more than that guilt occupied most of his emotions.

"Olivia will need this contract back." Orlando raised the contract in his hands.

"She will have to return it back to Premier Corporation for non acceptance."

"Just burn it....I don't want her anywhere near them." Romano commanded.

"No, she has to return. It will be for the best... The contract seems like it was actually made to trap Olivia. All useless threats, someone badly wants her to get trapped." Lucas said, tapping his glass of wine.

"In order to get to you, Romano." Orlando deduced.

"This all is so fucked up..." Deandre cursed out.

"Okay fine. I will return it to her tomorrow." Romano said looking forward to meet his girl again.

He would try to make up for his past, in the hope that she will once again forgive him, which was in reality a distant hope flying somewhere in the space.

Or maybe he would be the debris of the space itself.

The latter was quite suitable for Olivia though.

"Don't ignite her Romano. I think it would be safe if you don't follow her everywhere like a sick puppy." Watson suggested.

"I love her..... I would always be around her now, I have lost her once and I can't loose her again!" Romano was totally rebellious to this idea.

He already stayed away from Olivia in the past seven years, and now even one day would be a torturous hell for him.

"I know, but if you do, Christano would have an edge over you. Olivia would purposely choose him over you..." Watson gave his friend a small smile.

Romano's mouth opened in a small 'O'

That was true, he would have to freakingly stay away from her inorder to get her..

But the thought of Christano makes him uneasy.

Not only because he was jealous of him but also that Christano was a good man.

The latter was a good reason enough for Olivia to choose Christano over him.

He punched the window in frustration. His knuckles were all red.

The pain of his knuckles was nothing compared to the pain his heart felt now.

The pain of staying away.

"What is in the second file...?" Deandre asked.

Orlando started flipping the pages of the file.

His expression was normal before it changed to confusion and then to a frown and finally to utter disbelief.

Lucas kept the glass of wine down on the table, "What is it Orlando?"

Romano and Watson turned to stare at Orlando's way.

"It's a file on Crystal Becker."

Watson hurriedly came to Orlando's side and snatched the file from his hand.

He gasped seeing the pictures of his Crystal.
