Olivia’s heart was in a mess.
She felt even worse than the last time she saw Everett.
She didn’t think Davis came here by accident.
Instinct told her that he came here looking for her.
But there was no one else but Everett who asked Davis to come and look for her.
What did he want to do? Olivia closed her eyes to calm herself down.
After a while, she calmed down, opened her eyes, and zipped her back.
This was indeed the old saying that ‘Every cloud has a silver lining”.
She tightened her lower abdomen, pulled the zipper on her back, and pulled it up in a single try.
She straightened herself as she looked at the mirror and her expression returned to normal, but there was no smile on her face.
She was Olivia, but not the Olivia two years ago.
Davis, who was standing outside with his back to her, turned around and nodded.
“Miss Hadley.’ Olivia looked at him.
“Davis, what’s the matter?”
Davis looked at her.
“Yes, Mr.Weston asked me to give this to you.”
Davis took out a check and gave it to her.
Olivia looked at the check ina momentary daze, then curved her lips and she had smiles in her eyes, but there was no warmth in her smiles.
“What do you mean?”
“Mr.Weston said that Miss Hadley could come to him if you were in difficulties.You don’t have to stoop to compromise.After all, you were once husband and wife.”
Difficulties…
Compromise…
Husband and wife…
There was a message in this sentence that she, Olivia, humiliated him, Everett, as she was with another man.
The corners of Olivia’s mouth became wider.
“Davis, could you please tell Mr.Weston that I, Olivia, am not qualified to enjoy Mr.Weston’s kindness and please tell him to remember that we are divorced, so let’s not get involved in each other’s lives so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.”
With that said, she turned and left.
The moment she turned around, her eyes turned red, but there were no tears.
But before she could take two steps, Davis’s voice fell into her ear.
“Miss Hadley, you’d better take it.”
Olivia’s hand curled up and turned around.
“What if I don’t take it?”
What did he want to do to her? Davis, “Mr.Weston knew Miss Hadley wouldn’t accept it.He lets me tell you that Miss Hadley, be sensible and know what you shall do”
Olivia’s face turned pale.
Be sensible and know what to do…
So, if she didn’t listen, she would end up as she did two years ago? But what else could she lose now? Olivia pinched her nails into her palms and smiled.
“I’ll have to trouble you to tell Mr.Weston.Olivia doesn’t like to be sensible now.If he likes a sensible one, then go to find that one who is sensible.”
“Don’t come looking for her.” She thought.
She left quickly and slammed the door shut.
Olivia’s eyes were red and frightening.
“Everett, I used to think you were so good, but now I think you are so bad!”
She said to herself.
Davis looked at the closed door, picked up his phone and dialed a number.
“Mr.Weston, Miss Hadley didn’t want it”
Everett looked up at the second floor.
Olivia hurried down the stairs, her face pale and her eyes red.
She pursed her red lips, looking stubborn and angry.
“Fine.”
“She wants me to tell you something.”
Davis paused, clearly feeling being troubled.
“Say it.”
“She asked me to tell you…’
As Davis’s words fell into his ears, Everett’s pupils narrowed and his eyes were dark and scary.
“Olivia?”
Frank was about to go upstairs to look at Olivia when he saw her coming down the stairs with a gloomy face and he immediately came over.
“Olivia, what’s wrong with you? You look so bad?”
Olivia said apologetically, “Frank, I’m sorry.I’m not feeling well.I have to go back first.”
“I’ll send you home then”
“No need.You still have something to do.I can go back by myself”
“But…”
“It’s okay.I’ll go first.”
She left in a hurry, not giving Frank a chance to speak.
She wanted to spend some time alone now.
The hotel was on the outskirts.
There were no taxis, only luxury cars.
Olivia didn’t call for a cab either and she walked straight ahead.
She didn’t feel cold when the cold wind blew.
It was because her heart was colder.
Suddenly, the sound of car horns came from behind.
She walked to the side.
She didn’t expect the car to stop next to her.
