Lucas’s POV Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“What are you doing?” Father shouted at me as moved closer to us.
“How dare you try to hit your brother?” He added, angrily.
“I’m sorry, Dad. Logan provoked me to do so.” I said.
“Shut up.” He shouted at me again.
“What is happening, Logan?” He asked, turning to Logan.
“Lucas is being delusional, telling me to stay away from Olivia. I told him I won’t and that was when he came at me trying to punch me.” Logan replied to him.
“So if I didn’t come in to check up on you guys, you would have turned your suite into a battle ring. And where is Lucien?” Father said.
Just then Lucien came out of his room yawning and asking why we were shouting as we had disturbed his sleep. When his gaze fell on Father, he quickly bowed to greet him.
Father asked what he was doing while I and Logan were about to punch ourselves. He replied that he was sleeping as he was so tired.
Father went to sit on the couch and we moved closer to him standing in front of him as our punishment for shouting and fighting in the palace.
“So Olivia’s matter caused a rift among you guys. But you all told me you don’t have any interest in the lady and that she was just a maid, why are you fighting over her now?” Father asked.
“Have you guys started having feelings for her?” He asked again.
“Dad!” I yelled out.
Logan and Lucien remained quiet.
“Well, Lucas, you don’t have the right to strain the relationship between Olivia and Logan. If you want to be friends with her, then go ahead. Nobody will stop you from doing so.” Father said.
We all remained quiet as we listened to him. He ordered us never to hit ourselves and we promised him that we won’t do so. He was relieved when we all hugged each other and then we asked him to come to our room.
“I missed you guys and I came to say"hello "." He said, smiling.
“What a pleasant surprise.” We all said in unison.
Father rolled his eyes at us and he stood up angrily telling us that he would return back to his room since we didn’t want him in our suite.
“Dad!”
“What?”
I quickly pushed him back on the couch, Logan went to bring him a cold drink and Lucien brought out some snacks for him. He smiled and then munched on the snacks while sipping the cold drink.
We told him to relax as we had missed him as well. We all cracked jokes and laughed together. We were all tired and Dad stood up telling us that he was tired and needed to retire to his room.
“Ohh, Skyle and I will be coming to your school tomorrow to commission the new buildings and I want you to be available when we are doing so. Dress responsibly to school tomorrow and don’t you dare forget that the commissioning will start by 12 pm.” He said.
We all nodded and then he went to his room. I went to my room as well leaving Logan and Lucien in the living room.
I laid down on my bed tossing right and left on my bed trying to ignore what Logan told me earlier.
I think it’s high time you tell yourself the truth and stop being delusional.
I finally dozed off after several thoughts about whether I really wanted Liv or not.

It’s 7:30 am. I woke up reluctantly and then went to the living room to grab a bottle of water. I yawned as I walked out of my room and then I saw that Logan was already dressed for school but Lucien was still lying lazily on the couch.
“Are you not going to school, Lucein?” I asked.
“Can’t I just skip school for a day?” He said, yawning.
“Not today. Don’t forget that Dad is coming to our school today.” I said as I grabbed a bottle of water on the table to drink.
Lucien grunted as he stood up from the couch to take his bath.
After drinking the water, I turned to Logan and asked him why he was up early.
“I’m going to Olivia’s place to drive her to school.” He said as he picked up his car key on the table.
“What?” I asked, surprised.
“Why are you driving her to school?” I asked.
“I discussed with her yesterday that I would like to take her to school every day and she was okay with it.” He said nonchalantly.
I remained quiet as I watched him leave the suite humming happily.
Get it together, Lucas. What’s wrong with you? Why are you so concerned about Olivia and Logan?
I checked the time and it was almost 8:00 am. I quickly dashed off to my room to take my bath. I wore the new shirt and trousers I bought when we went out with Helen the previous day. I completed my looks with a pair of sneakers and when I was satisfied with my looks feeling confident that Skyle’s dress wouldn’t be able to match up with mine, I exited the room and Lucien was also ready and then we both went to school together.
When I got to the classroom, my gaze instantly fell on Logan and Olivia smiling at each other. Lucien went to his seat and Helen approached me with a smile.
“I know how to shop for the best things, Lucas. The shirt and the trousers look good on you.” She said.
“Thanks, Helen,” I said as I walked to my seat. Helen followed and took her seat beside me.
I occasionally glanced back to see what Logan and Olivia were up to. I didn't even know that Helen was talking to me.
“Lucas!” She shouted my name.
I turned to her asking what she was saying.
“Don’t tell me you are jealous of the closeness between Logan and Olivia?” She asked.
“Who said I’m jealous of their relationship?” I retorted.
“It’s written all over yourself, Lucas.” She replied.
“I’m not jealous. I just don’t want them together.” I said.
“That’s the same thing as being jealous.” Lucien cuts in
“I’m even thinking of getting closer to Olivia as well. It seems she is a nice person.” He added.
“You too?” I said, angrily.
“There is nothing wrong in getting closer to know her,” Lucien said.
“Really?” I said.
He nodded and then he stood up from his seat and I watched as he walked over to Logan and Olivia. He sat with them and they all smiled together.
