chapter 85
-It’s time to stop this cinema and let you go, I’m sure his eyes are now roaming over every woman in the room.
she retrieved her clutch bag and saw Maggie leaving behind her. no doubt because she wanted to go home for the night. when they reached the sidewalk, Maggie stopped a cab and instead of giving her address, she gave Damon’s instead, which made Olivia frown.
-But aren’t you coming home, Maggie?
-Yes, but only after you’ve left, so that I don’t feel insecure. You know perfectly well that I’m a man in a woman’s skin, so I’ll be fine.
A few minutes later, she was standing in front of Damon Dixon’s property. She’d never been in this neighborhood since she’d been here, and she was sure there was a protocol for visiting. the driver got out and opened the door for her.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
As she was still trying to absorb a breath of air to regain her composure, she saw Betty’s silhouette running towards her. she just hoped she hadn’t forgotten her bias.
-I’ve been waiting for you for an hour, while you’ve been taking your time at home. Are you serious, Olivia?
she couldn’t believe it. she’d fought so hard for this bias and now she was talking to him as if she were his daughter. she shook her head and huffed.
-This is the very last time you’ll address me like this. We’re friends and I’ve always respected you. You’ve asked me to do something I never thought of. I almost lost my job over this and you’re talking to me as if I were your servant. What if I told you I wasn’t? I don’t know what’s got into you to make you so arrogant, but let me tell you, you’re not dating Damon yet and you think you’re the girlfriend of a billionaire.
Ashamed after everything Olivia had just said to her, she lowered her head. In their group of three, Olivia had always been the one who never complained and sometimes Betty had fun using that against her.
-I’m sorry Oli, it’s just that at one point I thought you’d arrived before me and that you were already inside. I explained to you that today was my last chance, do you understand? I was just nervous and I didn’t react well, I’m sorry.
-It’s okay, after all I don’t know what I’m going to do with this bias, shall we?
they both went through security and as they passed through the great door of the Hall, everyone stopped what they were doing to stare at them. Betty thought for a moment that she was the center of attention, but was jealous when she saw that it was Olivia. at the same time, it was only natural since she was so unique.
As the man Damon had been chatting to suddenly stopped talking and stared at the entrance, Damon followed his gaze and lost himself in Olivia’s uncertain eyes. He was happy to see her and at the same time angry at all the looks that were throwing her off balance.
-Olivia, you’re glowing, or else who’s this beauty you’ve got with you?
-Martin, this is Betty, my best friend and model. Betty, this is Martin Dubois, my boss.
-Oh, the famous Martin, I’ve heard so much about you, it’s an honor to meet you and I imagine you’ve got a lot to talk about.
She winked at Olivia and left. Olivia clenched her fist as she left, having just sold her to Martin.
