DAVINA OLSEN

Oliver's POV

I was thinking hard as I drove. How on earth would I tell Lois that I needed her to come to Mr Olsen's party with me. We've not particularly spoken to each other for the past 2 weeks.

I got a call while at work from a very important client, Gabriel Olsen and he asked if we could meet and discuss about the business deal. I immediately gave a positive answer.

But then he invited me to his wife's birthday party, as an avenue to have that meeting. I agreed to it, but what came next was a shock to me.

He asked me to come with my wife as a date to the party, as he would love to see her, since he missed the wedding. I tried to make excuses but he still insisted that I bring Lois with me.

Now I have to think of how to approach her and ask her to come with me for the party. And I have to do that on time as the party is holding tomorrow evening.

I quickly drove into the garage and parked the car and alighted.

On walking into the living room, there was Lois, sitting on the couch, typing away on her phone as she unconsciously touched her hair.

I really had to talk to her now or never. I hope she listens. I sat down on the couch next to her and suprisingly that got her attention. I look at her for a few seconds before talking.

"Lois i need your help. Would you be my date?"

"W.. Wh.. What are you saying!?"

She asked with eyes as wide as saucers.

"I'm saying that I want you to be my date"

"For what?"

"For a business dinner party"

"Do I necessarily have to go with you?"

"Yes, it was clearly stated on the invite" liar my subconscious accused. But I wasn't really lying. Gabriel asked me to, and he is the invite in this situation. I defended.

"Fine. When is this party?"

"Tomorrow evening. Thank you so much Lois. I really appreciate"

I said sincerely.

"It's okay Olly"

"And since when did you start calling me that?" I grinned

"Since that bitch started getting on my nerves. You know who." She replied smiling.

"Funny how you women get back at yourselves"

The party

I could feel all eyes on Lois as she walked into the hall. I was at lack of words too. She looked gorgeous in that red long gown. I love the way it hugged her body down till the knee level before it flaired with ribbons.

She looked around, trying to locate me in the hall. I walked up to her as I took her hand in mine, which made her turn to look at me with a smile.

God!! This woman had a way of making my whole body respond to her charms. And when I say my whole body, I mean, My WHOLE body. Then she frowned.

"What is it?" I whispered

"You didn't pass any info about the color code of the party. I'm the only one in red, whereas others including you, are in royal blue and white. Makes me look like Cinderella"

"You are Cinderella"

"And you were Never a prince last time I checked"

She grinned, which made me smile at her.

"And I think I deserve to be properly introduced to this priceless beauty" A voice interrupted, and I turned back to see it was Gabriel. He was holding a very pretty woman and I didn't fail to notice that she was heavily pregnant. She should be his wife.

"Oh!... Of course. Mr Olsen, meet my wife, Lois Grants"

"It's nice meeting you dear"

"The pleasure is all mine"

Lois replied with a killer smile.

"By the way, meet my lovely wife Davina Olsen. Sweetheart, this is my business partner Oliver Grants and his lovely wife Lois"

"Nice meeting you" she gestured as she brought forward her hand for a shake. Then she turned to Lois and gave her a hug, which Lois gladly reciprocated.

"Come on lois, lets go hang around" Davina tugged at Lois clothes, and Lois followed her. I didn't miss the sweet smile on Gabriel's face as he looked at his wife adoringly.

"So Oliver, lets go into my study and talk." Gabriel motioned towards a mahogany door as I walked in with him.

Lois pov

"So how many months along?"

I motioned to her protruded belly.

"Oh! Nine!" she blushed.

"So I guess you know your EDD"

"Yes of course. It's next week"

"What hospital?"

"The one in the metropolis. The Grants hospital"

"Oh, That's my husband's hospital" I smiled as I saw her expression. She looked awed

"He's a Doc?"

"Erm..No, he manages the hospital. I'm actually the Doctor."

"Eeeeeeeeeeeek!! are you serious!?"

She squealed

"Davina, I'm serious"

"Wow, who knows, you might actually be the doctor in charge during my delivery"

"Maybe, you'll never know." I smiled. I really liked this lady. She's very fun to be with. We have chatted about various and abstract topics.

It was already so late in the night and I was wondering what Oliver and Gabriel could still be doing. It was 11:30pm already and most guest had already left.

Suddenly, I felt liquid splash on my leg as I looked around to find the source, only to see Davina clutching her belly with pain evident in her eyes.

"Lois!!"

"Sweetie are you okay" I asked panicking.

She vigorously shook her head. I hope it's not what I was thinking.

"Lois, I think I'm about to deliver"

Oh my God!! I was right.

Her water just broke.
