Houston, Texas
Ting..
The elevator doors open, Oliver exits with his assistant Javier. The two had just returned from a meeting held at the company of one of his co-workers.
Today actually Oliver does not want to come to the office, he still wants to be at home to accompany Asley who still has to rest not allowed too much activity. But Oliver's busy schedule that has been waiting for men that finally Olivia told Oli to finish all his work.
"You just get on with your work, Javi. I have to go home soon. I can't leave my son in recovery long" Oliver ordered as he headed to his room.
"Good sir. I'm going to the tenth floor to see Jonas, so that he prepares the best man in the division he leads when signing a contract with the company owned by your friend Mr. Elland next week" Javier said.
"Hem. But I want you to be the one who prepared everything Javi. I don't want anyone to be missed" Oliver ordered.
"Of course, sir, don't worry. As usual, you can count on me".
"That's what I want, Javi. You can always count on me".
"Sorry Mr. Oliver, in your room is Mr. Maxxie waiting for you".
"Maxxie?"
"Yes sir".
"Bring me two glasses of warm tea in my room right now, Liana".
"Okay sir", Liana replied as she nodded her head and passed.
Oliver went straight to his room. Max sat on the couch and looked at his cell phone.
"Max? You been here a long time?"
"Lumayan. You seem to be busy. Are you allowed to work again after that treatment?"
"of course. You can see for yourself I'm fine" replied Oliver sitting in front of Max. While Liana served warm tea and snacks that were requested a moment ago.
Oliver invites Maxxie to have a drink. "What brought you to see me, Max?", asked Oliver as he sipped his drink.
"Elara your sister" Maxxie replied looking at Oliver seriously.
"God.."
"I'm serious about Ela, Oliver. I love Ela. I've expressed my feelings and Ela accepts me. Now we are in a relationship. We're a couple of lovers".
"I want to tell you directly as the older sister I love".
It looks like Oliver's breathing out.
"For me, whoever Ela loves doesn't matter. Provided he can protect and take good care of Ela. It just so happens that the man is you Max, who's been taking very good care of my son and wife all this time. If Ela returns your love, of course I will support her. What's important to me is that Ela can be happy with a man of her own choice".
"All this time, all I knew was that Ela wasn't close to anyone. He was a little closed about his personal problems including to me his own brother. But the few times I saw you pick her up, it didn't seem like Ela was covering it up anymore. I'm glad to see him like that. More open" Oliver said seriously.
While Maxxie was seen hearing Oliver's words.
"Thank you. You don't have to worry I'll protect and look after your sister, Oli. I'm a grown man. I'm 33 years old. Since my wife Vivienne passed away I have not been in a relationship with any woman. Until I met Olivia and offered her a marriage, but Oliv loved you deeply".
Oliver's face turned cold. Even the man changed his sitting position, straightened his back and stared intently at Maxxie.
"You can't misunderstand Oliver. I liked Olivia because her face reminded me of Vivienne. The woman I love so much and have left me forever".
"As time passed I realized, it turned out that the feeling I felt for Oliv was not love. I realized I never loved Olivia. I just love him as my sister. Things were different when I met Elara for the first time. A deep feeling that I hadn't felt for a long time had suddenly penetrated my soul again. I want Ela" Maxxie said seriously.
"Ohhh..."
Oliver took a deep breath. Relieved. Hearing Maxxie confess to having Olivia married at once her feelings rumbled hot. But after Max explains everything, Oliver calms down.
"I'm glad to hear it Max. If you still come near my wife, of course I won't stay silent. Oliv, everything to me. I once did a fool on him, and now we're going to start all over again. I'm so happy to know my wife's feelings never changed for me. I love her more and more".
Maxxie smiled at the man before her.
"And I can see that happiness. I'm sure it won't be long before you'll give Asley a little sister" Max walked away from his seat because he knew Oliver would be impatient to go home. The man saw the watch on his wrist.
"certain. That's what I want. Just pray. I want to have many children. I don't want to be lonely anymore. I wish you and Elara the best" Oliver smiled.
"Oh yeah Max, maybe you can help me persuade Ela to stay here. Honestly, I really wanted my sister to work in this company with me. But you see for yourself, your lover is too stubborn. He's too independent. I don't know what's on his mind he won't even set foot here even in Houston, it's so outrageous". Oliver is upset if he remembers his sister's behavior regarding Lucifer's change.
"I think it's very difficult. Ela loves ballet too much, Oli. But I'm gonna do everything I can to make it more here now. I already have a plan for Elara" Maxxie replied before leaving Oliver's study and leaving because she had an appointment with Ela tonight.
