Adam Howard nods, very serious, “I attended the same school as Daniel Marshall, so I know him relatively well. If you want to learn about him, I’m all ears.”
After some hesitation, Olivia Jenkins doesn’t say anything and just gets into the car.
Just before Adam starts driving, he vacillates for a while, then finally brings himself to voice his suspicion, “Do you like Daniel?”
His question touching upon her secret, Olivia plays it cool as she chuckles, “Actually, we should have let Martin Wallace go first to slam you.”
“In fact, I approve of you two. You look good together. If you love him, there’s nothing to be ashamed of; even a bystander will notice that. He likes you too.”
Olivia’s long eyelashes flutter, her bright almond eyes crystal clear as water, “I really envy your friendship. Daniel isn’t as pitiful as you suggest – at least he has some good brothers nobody else can match.”
“Before he got married, even though we were very close, Daniel probably felt his heart was empty. It’s because of you, perhaps, that he’s truly come alive.”
Olivia laughs self-deprecatingly, without saying a word.
Her heartache, she finds hard to confess.
She doesn’t want to reveal her sorrow in front of others.
The pain and pleasure we feel are known only to ourselves! We just appreciate each other!
Abigail Anderson didn’t wake up until noon.
The moment she checks her phone, she’s snapped right out of her trance.
The entire internet is buzzing over her being Jordan Bennett’s new lover.
The whole network is betting on her expiry date – one month, two months, and at most, six months.
All over the internet, they’re mocking her for climbing the ladder using connections to become a COOKIE anchor.
Abigail wakes up to find that she has become the talk of the town overnight, and netizens are comparing her to Olivia. Some people are belittling her, saying she’s nothing compared to Olivia, Jordan Bennett must be just playing with her, and mocking her for leveraging Jordan for resources…
They had agreed to be “contract” boyfriend and girlfriend for just three months, agreed not to fall in love, not to mingle their personal lives. Now, the cats out of the bag, and Jordan Bennett’s announcing to the world that she’s his girlfriend.
Jordan Bennett has crossed the line!
Abigail’s anger flares, her eyes flashing dangerously.
Furious and humiliated, Abigail is about to call and berate Jordan Bennett, when suddenly, the doorbell rings.
If it isn’t the landlord then it has to be Jordan Bennett. Apart from the landlord, only Jordan Bennett knows where she lives. In a flash, Abigail takes a fruitless fruit bowl and goes to the door.
Looking through the peephole, Abigail confirms that the person outside is Jordan Bennett.
Abigail opens the door prepared. The fruit bowl in her hand goes directly to Jordan Bennett.
Jordan Bennett is also prepared. He is aware that the media is watching him closely. The moment Abigail opens the door, he pulls her waist and takes her inside her house at lightning speed.
Before Abigail could react, she was pinned against the wall by Jordan, the fruit bowl falling to the ground in shock.
Having had enough, Abigail is about to lash out, but her mouth is covered by Jordan.
Moreover, Jordan motions for her to stay quiet.
Abigail, seething with anger, kicks Jordan viciously in retaliation.
Instantly, Jordan winces in pain.
Abigail glares scornfully at Jordan, swept by a short-lived joy of revenge.
Bearing the pain, Jordan Bennett’s warm breath softly brushes against her ear. “I can let you go, just don’t make a sound. Somebody is taking pictures.”
The two stare at each other for a few seconds, Jordan, seeing Abigail is no longer overreacting, cautiously lets go.
Out of the blue, Abigail kicks Jordan again, “You asshole, you deserve to be taught a lesson!”
