The Billionaire's Unknown Offspring

Chapter 5

Joel Sinclair:

"And, who the hell are you to Olivia?" I barked back in anger "And, what are you doing at my office? the man didn't reply, instead, he approached and landed a punch on my face. I couldn't understand what was happening and the next thing I knew, the stranger and I were engaged in a fight. We both were beating the ass out of one another and trust me, if it wasn't for Olivia suddenly emerging out of nowhere, we would have killed one another. That's how hot-headed and angry we both were.

"Both of you. Knock it off!" she came between us and ordered sternly while her eyes were puffy and red like she had been crying for so long. I know I am the reason for that, which is why I was ready to own my mistake, but I wasn't ready to let this man live. How dare he lay his hand on me. Doesn't he know who I am? I am Joel f*****g Sinclair.

"Nathan, what the hell are you doing? I asked you to let this matter go. Didn't I ask you to stay put?" she shouted at the man whose name was Nathan.

"Excuse me, who the hell is he and what is he doing over here in my office?" I asked with an attitude, and pulled Olivia close to me, and wrapped my arms around her protectively " Who are you to her that you are willing to kill me for her?" I asked with an arch brow while Olivia tried to get free from my hold. Since she couldn't do that on her own, the man used all his strength, freed Olivia from my hold, and held her close to him with his arms resting on her shoulders protectively.

"For your information, I am her elder and protective brother Nathan, not her lover if that is what is going on in your shitty brain." Nathan snapped at me "How dare you compare my sister with bitches like you f**k and get married too? She is innocent and doesn't belong to your world because she is pure while you rich bastards are filthy and think they can do or insult whenever and wherever they want. My sister always comes late after doing such a workload put on her by you and stays up almost all night just to please you and hear appreciation from your mouth. And, in return what does she get to hear? That she is a w***e who f****d your friend to get the report done? Really, Sinclair? I wonder how long is this business empire and this attitude of yours going to last because one day it will be nothing but a sunk ship in the sea of business." he snapped " You are lucky that I am leaving you alive because if it wasn't for my sister coming over here to save your life, you would have been dead by now." So, you should be really grateful to her but again you won't because you are a f*****g A-level motherfucking asshole of a bastard." he shouts on my face and begin to drag Olivia with him when I grabbed her by the arm.

"Olivia, I am sorry for my actions and behavior from earlier. Can we talk? I really want to apologize and make it up to you if you are going to allow me." I asked, looking at her with hope in my eyes as I waited to hear her answer.

"No, I am sorry, Mr. Bennet, but I quit." she replied " I was tolerating everything until now because I wanted to learn from you. I know I am not perfect like you but I try to be. Instead of appreciating my work, you always find a way to degrade or disgrace me. I can tolerate everything but not being called a w***e. I won't allow anyone to point a finger at my character because that's where you cross the line. Have a nice ahead, Mr. Bennet. I will email you my resignation letter first thing in the morning." she turned around to leave with her brother while I stood there trying to find a way to stop her, my heart aching from the inside somehow because it didn't want to lose Olivia at any cost.

"Olivia, please. Stay, you are one hell of a great hardworking employee and the best assistant of all time. I don't want you to go. I am willing to apologize and make it up to you for my behavior. Just give me a chance to prove myself." I pleaded with her but she didn't listen and left with her brother.

If the man beside her wasn't her brother, I would have killed him by now. Because she is mine and I won't let anyone have her at any cost. Wait, what am I saying? She is mine? Is she? But our standards are totally different and besides I am to be engaged with the woman my mother has chosen for me since that woman matches our family standards.

"Bella, I want you to do something for me and I want that done first thing in the morning. Do you understand?" I called Thomas's sister for help and explained to her everything that happened right now. She screamed and called me words and much more but then eventually she calmed down and agreed to help me out. She found some of my ideas or maybe all of them, and guided me with the right one.

"So, you are sure that can be arranged by the morning because I really want Olivia to come back and work for me," I tell Bella. She chuckled on the other side of the call and spoke.

"Don't worry. My flower shop is going to do wonders and trust me, I won't stop until she is back and working for you. But, tell me one thing, Joel. What are you planning to do once she returns? Are you going to treat her like s**t again or are you going to confess your feelings to her?" she asked and I gulped, don't know how to answer that question because I am unsure about my feelings too myself.
