Chapter 776
At eight o’clock in the evening, Elaine arrived at the Time Bar on time and entered Room 216.
Five minutes later, Fabian came in from the outside.
At first, they just sat on the couch and talked. However, as they drank more of the wine, they sat closer and embraced each other.
Olivia had no interest in watching what happened next. She closed her laptop and went to the balcony.
The nights in autumn were colder than the days, but the scent of the osmanthus calmed her mind.
Olivia looked up at the night sky. She closed her eyes and prayed silently, hoping everything would end soon and she could bring
Lyla back to her side.
Two days later, Olivia happened to see Dorothy bumping into
Elaine in the elevator when she was bringing lunch to work for Zac. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Maybe it was because her position was higher or because she and
Fabian were closer now, but Elaine was not as afraid as before when she faced Dorothy. Instead, she seemed arrogant when looking at Dorothy, as if she was challenging her.
Dorothy, of course, could not stand such a stare. Thus, they confronted each other.
Looking at two people arguing, Olivia was somewhat pleased.
Since Dorothy loved being a mistress, she would have to be prepared to face other mistresses like her.
It made Olivia wonder if this could be considered karma.
With that in mind, Olivia shook her head and approached them. “Sister-in-law, Elaine, stop quarreling here. This is the lobby. Many people are watching.”
Dorothy turned around and glared at her. “It’s none of your business.”
Olivia lifted her eyebrows and pointed at the elevator. “It’s none of my business, but you’re blocking my way.”
“Of all the elevators, do you have to take this one?” Dorothy retorted.
“Sister-in-law, why are you throwing a tantrum at me? The other elevators don’t go to the odd- numbered floors. You know that, don’t you?”
“Fine! You win.”
With that, Dorothy walked out of the elevator.
After walking a few steps away, she turned around as if something had struck her mind. Then, she yanked Olivia out of the elevator. “Phoebe, did you instigate that b*tch to go against me?”
Olivia looked puzzled and asked, “What do you mean?”
“Stop pretending. You two look like you know each other!”
“What do you mean?” Olivia glanced into the elevator. “She’s from the Legal Department. Of course I know her. Why do you have to ask me such a strange question? Sister-in-law, you are too sensitive. I’m not like you.”
Then, she broke her arm free from Dorothy’s grip and said, “I’m in a hurry to deliver food to Zac. Don’t get in the way.”
Olivia got into the elevator, ignoring Dorothy’s displeased expression.
Elaine was also in the elevator and greeted when she saw Olivia. “Mrs. Quinton, thank you.”
“Know your limits. She is not someone you can mess with.” Olivia said that and headed out of the elevator when the door opened on her floor.
Dorothy was sensitive and suspicious. She did not want Dorothy to know what happened between Fabian and Elaine so soon. Above all, she did not want Dorothy to know this had something to do with her.
When she was at Zac’s office, it was empty. His secretary told her Zac was having a meeting on the top floor. He would probably return soon, so the secretary asked her to wait for him.
Olivia nodded and sat down on the sofa to wait.
Just as she sat, her phone beeped, and she saw a message popping on her screen.
[I’ve arrived in Ocean City. Do you want to meet?]
Startled, Olivia wondered, ‘Mr. M is in Ocean City?
‘Will we meet for real this time?’
The last time they had dinner, she did not even get the chance to see him in person.
[Okay.]
[5.00 p.m., Jasmine International Hotel, Room 3346. I’ll be waiting for you there.]
‘At the hotel?’ Olivia thought.
She frowned and wondered why Mr. M always chose to arrange their meetings at a hotel.
