A Cue for Love novel Chapter 924

Chapter 924 Thanks But No Thanks

“Natalie?” The word flashed across Olivia’s mind, but she didn’t give it much thought. Instead, she nodded with an elegant smile. “Muse, it’s been a long time since we last saw each other. Therefore, I wanted to drop by to catch up and talk about the good old days,” Olivia casually remarked without revealing her true objective.

“As I’ve sprained my ankles, I wonder if it’s convenient for us to talk inside?”

“Sure, please come in, Ms. Jones.”

Olivia limped into Anna’s apartment with the help of her crutches.

Upon entering the apartment and scrutinizing the decor, she noticed that the room was filled with baby products.

Recalling the news that she had previously received, a contemptuous glint flashed in her eye.

Back then, she had lowered herself to invite Anna to design for Farrington Jewelry. Unfortunately, the latter wasn’t appreciative and turned her down with the excuse that she wasn’t interested in working with any jewelry companies. Not long after that, Muse disappeared without a trace.

Initially, Olivia assumed that Muse had retired or was improving herself. It never crossed her mind that Anna ended up marrying a country bumpkin. The man was both egoistic and had low self-esteem. Not only did he ignore his family, but he was also a gambling addict. Moreover, he would give her a beating whenever his temper flared.

If only Anna had worked with Farrington Jewelry back then, she wouldn’t have fallen into such a terrible predicament.

Even though Anna was oblivious to Olivia’s thoughts, she could sense the cold haughtiness the latter emitted from the eye contact they made.

“Ms. Jones, have some coffee.”

“Thank you.”

Both of them took their seats opposite each other.

After taking a sip, Olivia kicked off the conversation with an expressionless tone. “Before I came, I actually did some digging into your past over the last two years.”

“Ms. Jones, what are you…” Even though Anna knew that conducting a background check wasn’t difficult for someone who ran Farrington Jewelry, she still felt unsettled over having her past revealed that way.
