Chapter 771
Two months passed peacefully.
During this time, Olivia often went to have meals with Ian and Sam, and their relationship improved.
Watching them grow up reminded her of Lyla.
Everyone seemed to be around her, but Lyla was not, making her feel a little sad deep down.
Fortunately, although Ian still put on his pride, he talked to her more and gradually accepted her.
The best thing was that the atelier was back on track. The assistant accepted more orders for her, making her feel comfortable as a designer again.
In a blink of an eye, autumn was around the corner. The fragrance of the osmanthus flowers was the best during this season, so Olivia brought the easel to the balcony. She planned to design while enjoying the scent of the osmanthus flowers. Her newfound inspiration filled her mind with ideas.
However, it had just rained, and the breeze was cold.
"Miss?"
Mrs. Simmons pushed open the door and noticed Olivia was working. She lowered her voice. "Miss, it’s time."
Without waiting for Olivia's reply, she turned back and closed the room door.
Mrs. Simmons knew Olivia did not like being disturbed when working. She only had to remind Olivia about her schedule.
Half an hour later, she ran downstairs in a hurry. "Oh, no! I'm already half an hour late."
Mrs. Simmons handed her the lunch box she had prepared earlier and retrieved the coat on the hanger for Olivia. "Miss, don't worry. Mr. Quinton will understand even if you are half an hour late."
Olivia scratched her head and said, "I thought I could take another two minutes to work, but time passed faster than I expected."
Then, she took the lunch box and headed out.
Mrs. Simmons was afraid Olivia would speed to reach her destination faster. "Miss, you can call Mr. Quinton to tell him you will be late. Don't speed. It's dangerous."
Snapping out of her anxiousness, she responded, "Okay. Mrs. Simmons, please go inside the house. It’s cold outside."
"Okay. I'll see you off first."
