Olivia didn't have a video. It was a mere trick to force Sophia into telling the truth.In fact, Sophia's mentality was not that strong enough as she ended up exposing Jackson.With the so-called video in Olivia's hands, Sophia would keep herself under the radar for a while.Furthermore, it was apparent that Jackson was another chess piece of that mastermind.Although Olviia didn't know who the mastermind was, there was one thing she was confident about—she came to the right place.The mastermind should be hiding within Miller Group. He knew her like the back of his hand too.Now, she had a clear direction for her investigation.She needed a detailed plan to lure the mastermind to show himself.…Considering that Team C was able to make a deal with Elijah—the infamous stubborn client—the team members were in a good mood.Just then, an unexpected guest came for a visit. Someone said, "Gosh, it's Mrs. Miller!"The mention of Mrs. Miller prompted Olivia to raise her head.So
Olivia never once had the chance to display her affection for Ethan like Marina did.He gave Olivia love, yet he gave Marina the dignity as Mrs. Miller.Olivia silently took her leave from the crowd.The afternoon sun was scorching. The initials on the wedding invitation were a pain to her eyes.The illustration of the couple on it was dressed in a wedding gown and suit.They held hands and kissed under the rain of cherry blossoms, which formed such a romantic sight.In fact, Olivia had personally drawn a few designs for her wedding invitation card.When she showed them to Ethan excitedly, he didn't express much joy.He had only caressed her head and said softly, "Sorry, Olivia. I don't plan on holding a wedding. So, the wedding invitation cards …""Why?" she asked gingerly."You know my identity. It's inconvenient." His simple reply dashed all anticipation.Olivia thought about the masked man, who had saved her during her trip.The metallic smell of blood from his stained
In the past, Olivia would've checked Ethan's injury or given him a massage on the head immediately.However, she didn't do the same today.Even though their divorce was the result of a scheme and Jeff's hospitalization had nothing to do with Ethan, everything was in the past.She needed to get used to a life without him.Olivia stood right where she was respectfully and said in a calm manner, "Mr. Miller, I brought the proposal."He didn't open his eyes as he furrowed his brows. "Come here."She came to his side. "If you're tired, I can read the proposal for you."In the past, she would read the documents for him whenever he was exhausted.After he told her his decision, she would proceed with the following step.Opening his eyes, Ethan pulled her into his embrace.She shrieked. The angry man who told her to scram last night was making his advance all of a sudden.The papers scattered on the floor, and her hands rested against his built chest.At this time, Marina should be
Olivia and Ethan's relationship turned more complicated than before. She didn't know what was on his mind.One moment, he would cling to her; the next, he would demand her to leave.Still, she was aware that now was not the time to strain things with him.She had a hunch that the mastermind intended to chase her out of Miller Group by catastrophizing the matter.After all, the photos couldn't prove that there was something else going on between Olivia and Elijah.It could only ruin her reputation and gain Marina's attention at most.If Olivia's guess was right, Marina showed up at Miller Group because of those photos.As long as Ethan wanted to avoid misunderstandings, it would take a word from Marina to drive Olivia out of here.The mastermind must've noticed that Olivia was looking into the case.Hence, he was using Marina to make Olivia stay away from Miller Group.Now, Ethan was the only savior she could ask for help from.She drew circles on his chest with a grim expr
Provoking Marina was never in Olivia's plan. Olivia never expected Marina to be here this quickly either.Marina had always resented Olivia to the bone. If she found Olivia in the CEO's office, she would surely turn the whole company upside down.Thinking about the objective behind her arrival at Miller Group, Olivia was determined not to let Marina ruin her plan.Impatiently, Olivia shoved Ethan's chest.He ignored her protest because he'd been desiring such a moment all along. Like a lost tourist who finally found a source of water in the desert, he wouldn't let her go.Olivia was flustered because Marina was going to barge into the office at any time.Marina was getting impatient. She was Ethan's fiancée and yet Brent was treating her like an intruder.She said, "What's wrong? Do I need to make an appointment to see my fiancé? Make way."Olivia's heart was on the verge of jumping out of her chest. She broke free from Ethan's grasp with all her might.She thought, "He's cr
Marina reflexively wanted to ask Ethan if it was Olivia, but she held herself back.Now that they were going to register their marriage soon, she didn't want anything to happen that could possibly delay the event any further.She decided to buy it, believing that he accidentally bit his lip.Even if Olivia had something to do with this, she didn't want to mention Olivia's name in front of him.Marina noticed that he had been acting out of character these days.In the past, he didn't hide the resentment in his eyes whenever Olivia's name was brought up.However, it seemed like his feelings for her had changed in the past few months. He cared about her again.Ethan and Marina hadn't registered their marriage as of now.Because of that, she didn't want to have a fight with him over this kind of matter."It's a slip of the tongue. Oh, I baked these muffins myself. Try them." She placed the muffins on his desk.Ethan looked at them. He knew that Olivia used to make the same muffin
Marina, who could read the room very well, noticed Ethan's displeasure.She said, "I see. I didn't know about that."He was too lazy to explain it further as he said, "Stephanie, you may do your job.""Okay, Mr. Miller."While Stephanie was doing the cleaning, Marina was observing her. Considering Stephanie's old age, Marina supposed that it was nearly impossible for Ethan to have an affair with Stephanie.As an afterthought, she began scrolling through her phone.Meanwhile, Olivia's blood was boiling as she thought, "Forget about letting Marina stay, why did he let the janitor clean the room? Is he trying to have me get caught red-handed?"Still, she found it weird that Stephanie would choose to do the cleaning at this hour.She tried to observe Stephanie, but the latter had her back facing her. It was weird that Stephanie was wearing a bucket hat since they were indoors.When Stephanie was going to wipe the bookshelf after wiping the window, Olivia got anxious.She migh
Olivia barely survived a crisis, yet she was in the lion's den again.She saw the proposal from the corner of her eyes and took it. "I know you're in a hurry, but calm yourself down, please. My colleagues are waiting for a reply from you."Ethan noticed the frantic in her eyes, knowing that she didn't want to pay the price for her deed.After heaving a long sigh, he released Olivia. Jumping off the desk, she stood beside him.She dared not breathe heavily as she tried to calm herself. She passed him the proposal. "Take a look."Ethan's gaze swept across the document before landing on her face again. "Do you still want to stay in Miller Group for a month?""Yes." She nodded."I don't pay useless people. You'll be handling this project."She was stunned. "Are you trying to make me a public enemy?""You already are. Handling this project won't make a difference."Olivia couldn't see through his intention. She took the proposal. "The proposal—""As I've said, I'll leave it t
