Olivia's pov:
Kent stares at me for long moment before turning his gaze back to Natalia, shooting her a glare, and then he moves away.
Natalia eyes widen, not believing that Kent, who despises traitors, would not confront me right there for cheating on his son.
I smirk at her and walk inside the house.
I know I have to face him, but seeing Natalia's face was worth his anger.
"Dad?"
"Just...... go to your room, Jack."
Kent is clearly keeping a leash himself. I feel my anger flash up in side me again.
Why the hell is Kent being so harsh to Jack? Jack, after all, was perfect tonight.
I open my mouth to say something but Jack just takes my arm and pulls me towards the stairs.
I scowl but follow, holding my tongue and glaring over my shoulder at Kent's tense form as he looks into the night.
"Easy."
"Jack... you should have let me tell him what I think of his rudeness! He didn't have to be so rude to you!"
He just shakes his head and laughs.
"How do you think that all went?"
"I don't know. I hope.... I hope I didn't mess things up as much as Natalia desired. Why does she have such animosity towards me?"
"Actually, I don't really know. That's a good point. She has.... not been on team Olivia for the moment since she got there. And I don't really know why."
"Right?!"
"Maybe, it's a hint about where the Bianci allegiance really lie. Perhaps..... not with your father."
Until now, I thought Natalia had something personal against me. But now, it kind of makes sense.
Jack and I are both lost in our own thoughts when we hear a door open down the hall.
"I'm going to my room, and you should do the same!"
We both jump a bit and then swiftly head to our rooms, wanting to get inside before having another encounter with an Italian tonight.
I blow him a kiss over my shoulder as I scurry inside my room, leaning back against it as I push the door closed.
Ugh. I'm exhausted.
I quickly change into my pyjamas and lie down on my bed.
God. What a mess.
Not only did Ivan kiss me, but Natalia found out and told Kent.
It made it seem like I not only betrayed him but also intentionally embarrassed him and Jack in front of his family.
I'm about to start to kick my feet against my mattress again and again, to let out my frustration, when suddenly I hear a knock on my door.
I snap up in my bed, my eyes darting to the bottom of my door where I can sometimes see the shadow of feet standing. But no one is there but there is something on the floor.
I jump up and hurry over to the little note I see sitting there.
I pick up the little slip of paper and see only two short lines written there.
