As soon as Sophia entered the office, she threw the proposal at Olivia. "Go and submit your resignation to the HR department now! There's no place for a person like you in my team." Olivia gave her an icy smile and said, "How bossy of you, Ms. Linden. I did not make any mistakes. On what grounds are you firing me?" Sophia vented all the frustration she suffered from Ethan on Olivia. Her face was twisted in anger. She no longer wanted to keep up the facade. "On what grounds? The fact that we don't need an idiot like you in the workplace." "I'm an idiot because I don't want to take the fall? Even if I did, would Mr. Miller believe it? Or do you think he's as dumb as you are?"Sophia slammed her hand on the table and yelled, "Olivia Fordham!" "That's me. But if there's nothing else, I'll be excusing myself, Ms. Linden. Also, I am a contracted employee. "If you want to fire me, you should acquire the company first." Olivia left the office without looking back. She even w

The next morning, Olivia appeared at the office full of energy. It was a stark contrast compared to her colleagues with their bloodshot eyes and tired faces. It was like a human walking into a group of zombies.It was like she didn't remember the insults yesterday. Olivia greeted Norma politely, "Good morning."Her bright smile annoyed Norma. Norma grabbed a cup of coffee and went back to her desk. She then muttered sarcastically, "Some people sure have it easy." Olivia didn't let it slide. She said innocently, "I wanted to take part in the planning. But you guys thought I was new and was afraid I might leak the proposal. "You didn't even let me in the meeting. Don't act like it's my fault now." Olivia's words triggered Norma's anger. She threw her documents on her table and said, "Olivia Fordham, what the hell are you talking about?" Olivia shrugged and said, "Nothing, just that you're a hypocrite." "Olivia Fordham, you better watch your mouth. Who do you think you are, talkin

Olivia collected her emotions and opened the door. Her expression was back to normal. "I'm ready." Sophia looked at her slightly pale face and said, "What kind of touching up did you do? Never mind, you can use my lipstick. This is the trendiest color this year that men like." The bright lipstick glided across her lips. It gave her a radiant glow. Olivia's complexion improved significantly. Sophia then sprayed some perfume on her. It was a rich and enchanting fragrance.Olivia frowned at the smell. But she was covered in it before she could decline. "Okay, let's head in. We can't keep Mr. Lincoln waiting." Sophia confirmed with Olivia yet again, "Are you sure you know the rules of the dinner table? I don't need to give you a refresher course, right?" "Yeah, I'm sure.""Okay, that's good."They arrived at the private dining room. It was unclear if Sophia had sent a picture of Olivia to Lincoln because he was unexpectedly early for once. And he was full of smiles, too.

The confidence in Lincoln's face faded. He was stunned. He had never seen such an arrogant woman in his life!He was boiling with anger, but Olivia asking him to foot the bill made him laugh instead. "Very well! Ms. Linden, I think you shouldn't bother me anymore. We'll never work together ever." "Don't, please!" Sophia was anxious. She had been negotiating with Lincoln for a very long time. She was about to succeed, but Olivia had ruined everything for her. "It's all her fault. She doesn't know anything. "Please be gracious and forgive us one more time. I've planned more interesting activities. "It'll be a pity if you leave now. I'll have her apologize to you."Lincoln's eyes were fixated on Olivia. She was indeed a gorgeous woman. He gently stroked the back of Sophia's hand and asked, "What interesting activities?"Sophia grounded her teeth and took a keycard out of her pocket. She said, "Mr. Lincoln, I've already prepared a place where we can spend the night." S

They were the only ones in the spacious elevator. The mirrors on the sides reflected Ethan's icy expression. Olivia was trapped in a corner of the elevator and was pressured by Ethan's overwhelming presence. She dared not move. "Please show some restraint, Mr. Miller. You're already engaged to Ms. Carlton."Olivia never expected that one day, she would use the person she hated the most as an excuse.Ethan looked her in the eyes and said calmly, "I told you you don't have to worry about her." The elevator arrived at the top floor just as she wanted to say something. Ethan grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the lift. She looked at the familiar decor. Her expression changed slightly. She said, "Why did you bring me here? Do you want me to watch you while you and Marina do it? Don't be ridiculous, Ethan." Ethan pressed her finger on the fingerprint reader. The door opened. Olivia was taken aback. She didn't expect him to keep her prints on the record. She also didn'
