Oliver rushed towards him, holding him by the collar and Selene pulled him away from Davis.
"Where the f**k have you been?! We've been looking for you everywhere!". Oliver yelled at him.
"He's here now, that's all that matters". Selene said, trying to calm angry Oliver.
"It didn't reach two hours when I got to England that I saw the news about Olivia's revival. I had to take the next flight back". Davis explained and both Oliver and Aiden rolled eyes at him.
"Please let's keep our enmity aside, for now just tell me where Olivia is". Davis pleaded, but the guys ignored him and Isla was the one who pointed to Olivia's ward and Davis thanked her before rushing in.
Aiden sent a questionable look towards Isla and in order to avoid it, she locked her arms with his pouting cutely.
"I'm tired, take me home". Isla pouted again and Aiden scoffed before getting up from the seat, and sweeping her off the seat also taking her into his hands as she giggled.
"See you in school tomorrow". Aiden said to Selene and Oliver before taking Isla away.
"Let's leave also, they need some alone time together". Selene said to Oliver.
"There's no way I'm leaving my sister alone with that monster". Oliver blurted out.
"And what qualifies him as a monster? C,mon Oliver it's his cousin who almost killed Olivia not her". Selene said and Oliver glanced at her.
"That doesn't change the fact they're still related". Oliver argued stubbornly.
"Oh please! You're just saying this because of your old rivalry with him. But then if it's because he's related to Kingston, then I should not also date you cause you're Archer's brother". Selene said and Oliver's eyes widened.
"Yes, right? Cause your brother caused me so much pain I should also hate you too". Selene said and Oliver sighed deeply before standing to his feet and began walking away.
"Where are you headed to!". Selene called after him.
"You said they needed privacy right?". Oliver yelled back still walking away and Selene smiled at first, but then it turned into a sly smirk.
'Just keep it going Selene you're almost there. Your plan to use Oliver to acquire the Clearn's wealth is not far from being executed. It's a good thing you found out fast that Archer wasn't the real heir to the family and opted for a divorce immediately otherwise your plan of gaining so much wealth through him would have been useless'
'I never mind enduring Archer's vile treatment towards me till I die as long as I have so much money. But the fool happened to be a b@st@rd son instead after all the endurance! Being the youngest and the most hated in my family I'm pretty sure dad's leaving nothing for me in his will but then who needs him when I have the real heir to one of the richest conglomerates in the whole country wrapped around my palms". Selene thought smirking as she watched Oliver's leaving figure, then she decided to join him.
***** *****
"Olivia?". Davis called when he walked into the room only to see Olivia struggling to take off the drip pipes attached to her wrist and his eyes widened as he ran towards her.
"What do you think you're doing?!". Davis yelled, stopping her.
"I want to go meet Davis…
The rest of the words got stuck in Olivia's mouth and she saw it was him.
"Davis?". Olivia called out with a huge smile playing on her face, and Davis hugged her warmly which she responded to.
"I can't believe you pulled through Via, I thought I've finally lost you". Davis cried amidst the hug and Olivia broke the hug when she realized it. VH
"Quit crying okay? You make it look like we were dating before the worst happened". Olivia chuckled, holding up his cheek and Davis wiped his tears.
"Can we?". He asked but instead of answering Olivia brought his face closer and pulled him into a warm kiss.
"THE RUSSEL'S MANSION"
"Senator Russell! Russell!!". Dylan yelled the moment he got into the living room with Lisa.
"Why are you yelling out his name like that?!". Lisa snapped at him as she sat on a couch crossing his legs.
"I want to ask why he would send an unlicensed psychopath like you to come pick me up". Dylan replied as he began climbing the stairs then Lisa chuckled.
"You won't find him at home". Lisa said and Dylan descended the stairs approaching her.
"Why?". He asked.
"He went out with your mom almost the same time you left with your friends for the hospital". Lisa said and Dylan's eyes widened.
"Then why'd you come pick me up? When he wasn't the one who sent you?!". Dylan gasped.
"Hey! I waited for close to thirty minutes straight and when I got tired of waiting I had to go to you okay? This mansion was too boring!". Lisa snapped before she knew it and Dylan smirked at a statement.
"Did you just admit to missing me after i was only away for thirty minutes straight?". Dylan smiled as he settled beside her while Lisa stood up glaring at him.
"When did I say that?!". Lisa yelled.
"You just did…just now". Dylan replied by getting up from the couch and Lisa scoffed before making to run up the stairs but Dylan pulled her back by the wrist and she hit his chest gently. Their eyes were now locked.
"I asked if you wanted to tag along but you refused and even threatened to kill me, only for you to come pick me up out of boredom". Dylan smiled as he used his thumbs to caress her cheek, while Lisa still stood lost in his eyes, with her heart beating rapidly.
"Now that I'm here, what do you want us to do?". Dylan muttered right when Lisa was about to answer the senator and Lady Emily walked into the living room and she had to pull apart from Dylan.
"I told you leaving them at home most times, will bring the burning desire out from them". Lady Emily whispered to Senator Russell who cleared his throat instead.
"You both are back already?". Lisa asked.
"Yes we would have stayed longer, but Zayn kept on flirting with the waitress". Lady Emily rolled eyes at the senator before walking up to Lisa and pecking her on the lips, which Lisa smiled at.
"Go to bed early, you both have school tomorrow". Lady Emily said and Senator Russell glanced at her, while Lisa chuckled. Dylan just stared at his mom.
He was expecting a kiss from her also but instead, she went up the stairs not sparing him a glance.
"Come with me to my study Lisa, I have something to tell you". Senator Russell said before climbing the stairs and Lisa nodded.
"Don't take it to heart okay? Goodnight". Lisa said to Dylan before running up the stairs trying to meet up with the senator.
"She has never greeted me goodnight before. Does this mean I have a chance?". Dylan smiled before running up to his room.
"ISLA'S HOUSE"
Aiden's car pulled up in front of Isla's house and she pecked him on the cheek before making to alight the car but Aiden pulled her back.
"Can't you just go on a little ride with me?". Aiden asked and Isla shook her head in disapproval.
"Why?". Aiden asked.
"I have something important to do at home right now and my granny has been waiting for me". Isla said and Aiden sighed.
"Okay what about this? We'll go out tomorrow after school". Isla persuaded and Aiden glanced at her.
"For real?". He asked and Isla nodded with a huge smile on her face.
"You've given me your word no excuses tomorrow". Aiden said.
"Yes I promise". Isla said and Aiden pulled her closer for a kiss, before letting her go out of the car.
The moment she came out, she waved at him and he winked back at her. He was about starting his car engine and driving off when Jake came out of Isla's house and he glared at him through his car's windshield with a balled fist.
"You're here. Your granny mentioned you left the house earlier and would be home soon so I decided to wait for your return". Jake said, walking up to Isla as he took her hands.
"You didn't come to work today, why?". Jake asked for Isla's hand, and Isla immediately took her hand from him. Jake made to hold her again but Aiden was fast to disconnect their hands, punching Jake right in the face causing his lips to burst, but Jake made sure to return the punch.
"Aiden!". Isla panicked.
Aiden wasted no time in returning the punch, then he kicked Jake on the leg making him fall on his knees.
"Motherf**ker!". Aiden spat as he began kicking Jake repeatedly on the back and stomach while the fellow kept groaning in pain.
"Aiden stop! Aiden that's enough you'll kill him!!". Isla yelled as she finally pushed Aiden away from him. Then she rushed towards Jake going on her knees to attend to him and Aiden took her away from him.
"Let go of me he's hurting!". Isla said to Aiden.
"It's because you don't have the guts to tell him that's why he keeps coming to you. Isla f**king draw a boundary between you two, so this would end today!". Aiden yelled obviously angry.
"No! We both work in the same place. It won't make sense if I cut ties with him, just because I have a boyfriend who hates him!". Isla yelled back and Aiden scoffed at her.
"I don't just hate him. I hate any guy who tries to come close to you, so get that!". Aiden said and Isla went to Jake ignoring him.
"Leave Aiden. It's getting late". Isla muttered as she helped Jake up.
"What do you think you're doing?". Aiden glared at her.
"It's obvious he has something to tell me, so I'm taking him in with me for treatment. Drive safely". Isla replied as she began taking Jake into the gate, expecting a response from Aiden but none came.
Then she turned only to see him driving off in a reckless manner and she sighed sadly.
**** ****
"Your granny isn't around?". Jake asked as Isla treated his wound.
"She is. It's obvious she's in her room". Isla replied, focused on what she was doing.
"So you're dating Aiden now?". Jake asked and Isla dropped what she was doing.
"Why did you come here in the first place?". Isla asked.
"I just wanted to see you". Jake replied.
"Why?". Isla questioned.
"You weren't at work today and I just missed you that's why". Jake said and Isla gave him a puzzled look, then he took her by the palms.
"I really like you a lot, Isla. If you could just give me a chance I promise to make you happy…
"I already have a boyfriend. And please don't come unannounced to my home again. I don't like it". Isla said getting up from where she sat with him.
"It's getting late…
"You have a better chance with me than with him, his from a f**king high class family. His parents, especially his dad, could buy the whole of Australia and still have a lot of changes left. Isla you're from a lower background whether you accept it or not, you're both not compatible the odds are f**king clear!". Jake interrupted, also standing to his feet.
"Who are you to tell me all this?!". Isla said getting pissed off.
"Once he stops loving you, you'll see the consequences of not heeding to my warning, Isla, you'll have no choice but to quit that school also…
"Leave my house Jake!". Isla yelled.
"F**king leave my house!". Isla interrupted, enraged and Jake left.
The moment he was out, Isla fearfully fidgeted with her fingers thinking about what Jake said. Then she dialed Aiden's number and it kept ringing but he refused to pick it up. Then finally at the third ring he cut it and Isla's heart stopped functioning for a second.
NEXT DAY…
"GEELONG HIGH SCHOOL"
The school went on a two day holiday to mourn the loss of two of their elite students, thankfully one of them later survived and they couldn't be happier.
Also Selene got back to teaching in the school and announced to the students that she and Oliver were dating and wanted the flirtatious girls who had eyes on him to stay off him.
Lisa had come to school on her bike as usual, refusing Dylan's offer of dropping her off. She didn't want anyone finding out that she lived with them now.
Now they were in Physics class and Selene was the teacher for the subject. Olivia was still recuperating in the hospital so she wasn't in school and Davis obviously stayed back to keep her company.
"Okay. That's all for today's class. You're to submit your assignment first thing tomorrow morning". Selene smiled and winked at Oliver before leaving the class, Maya who saw it stood up and left the class also and Evelyn rolled eyes before following her.
Isla stood to go meet Aiden on his seat, but before she could get to him, Aiden stood up and left the class with Oliver not sparing her a glance as he walked past her.
"What's wrong with Aiden? Are you two having issues?". Lisa asked but instead of answering Isla broke into tears hugging her and Lisa's eyes widened, then Dylan appeared before them.
"What did you do to your baby face?". Dylan asked and Lisa glared at him.
"I should be asking you instead? What did your b*tt headed friend do to her?!". Lisa yelled at him as she patted crying Kala.
"Who? You mean Aiden? How do you expect me to know?". Dylan said before taking Isla from her and making her face him.
"What are you doing?!". Lisa snapped at him.
"Chill okay?". Dylan said to her before facing Isla.
"You'll find Aiden in the school cafeteria, why don't you go meet him there. I want to ask your friend out". Dylan said to Isla who intended to disapprove but when she heard his last statement she nodded and went away.
"What did you tell her?". Lisa asked and Dylan faced her.
"Nothing much, just that I'll be asking you out now and I want no obstructions". Dylan said without stress and Lisa broke into laughter. She had laughed for some minutes while Dylan gave her a serious look and she stopped laughing.
"Oh you're not joking when you said that". Lisa muttered as she avoided his eyes, then Dylan grabbed her by the hand and took her out of the class.
