Chapter 10 At a bar near the hospital , Julian kept dialing a number on his phone with growing frustration , but no one answered .
His friends exchanged nervous glances before one ventured : Whats going on , Julian ? What did you do to piss off Ash ? This seems pretty serious .
Julian massaged his temples .
He had no idea what hed done to offend Ash Harrington .
Yet somehow hed angered him enough to sever all business ties between their families , throwing away years of friendship .
Unless … was it because of Olivia ? At the engagement party , someone had asked Ash to take Olivia home .
Ash had always despised her could he be holding a grudge about that ? Taking it out on Julian ? No … that made no sense .
Ash wasnt that petty .
Olivia wasnt important enough to affect his friendship with Ash … Julians anxiety deepened .
It reminded him of his early days in business , when every door seemed to close in his face .
That same feeling of frustration , anxiety , and dread .
Back then , Olivia had been by his side , comforting him , helping him think through problems , finding solutions together .
Unlike Claire , who just kept telling him to put down his phone and drink less .
Thats all she ever said .
Nothing more .
Suddenly … he found himself missing Olivia .
Just then , a message popped up in the group chat .
[ Holy shit ! Look who I just saw ! Thats Olivia , right ? But whos the guy carrying her ?! ] Julian opened the photo taken at the hospital entrance .
Olivia was being carried bridal style by some man .
The rainy weather had made it dark , and passing pedestrians blocked most of the mans figure impossible to identify him .
Chapter 10 But Olivias profile was unmistakable .
Julian froze , then let out a bitter laugh as he smashed his glass across the room .
