Elijah, who was sitting close to Olivia Blake, ended the call on Natasha, sliding his phone onto the table and letting out a breath."Oh yeah, who were you talking to?" Olivia asked, raising her brow slightly. Even though she had a clue who it was, she wanted to hear it from him directly."I was talking to Natasha. She told Elijah she needed money to help her company," Elijah informed Olivia since there was nothing to hide. "I thought she took a loan from the bank?" Olivia narrowed her eyes, trying to piece it together.Olivia was there when Natasha came to the bank to take the loan ,so she wondered if Natasha was using this to get closer to Elijah."Someone in her financial department took the loan and ran," Elijah replied calmly, picking up a slice of pizza and began eating it."Oh, that’s bad.

She asked him and he didn't want to listen to her nonsense, he walked up to grab her hand pulling her away from the rich client."Ah! let go of me, who are you!" She yelled in pretense and the client's face turned red with rage, as a lowly driver had taken his woman away from him."Hey, what nonsense are you doing? Do you want to get fired from your job? Let her go immediately!" He yelled, as he walked closer to the driver and the driver who was physically fit used one hand to push him, the client who had a pot belly was pushed backwards and it enraged him.Elijah was seeing all this and decided to open his car door and walked out and his bodyguards in the second car following his car stepped out with him."Babe ,what a
