Chapter 776
At eight o'clock in the evening, Elaine arrived at the Time Bar on time and entered Room 216.
Five minutes later, Fabian came in from the outside.
At first, they just sat on the couch and talked. However, as they drank more of the wine, they sat closer and embraced each other.
Olivia had no interest in watching what happened next. She closed her laptop and went to the balcony.
The nights in autumn were colder than the days, but the scent of the osmanthus calmed her mind.
Olivia looked up at the night sky. She closed her eyes and prayed silently, hoping everything would end soon and she could bring Lyla back to her side.
Two days later, Olivia happened to see Dorothy bumping into
Elaine in the elevator when she was bringing lunch to work for Zac.
Maybe it was because her position was higher or because she and
Fabian were closer now, but Elaine was not as afraid as before when she faced Dorothy. Instead, she seemed arrogant when looking at Dorothy, as if she was challenging her.
Dorothy, of course, could not stand such a stare. Thus, they confronted each other.
Looking at two people arguing, Olivia was somewhat pleased.
Since Dorothy loved being a mistress, she would have to be prepared to face other mistresses like her.
It made Olivia wonder if this could be considered karma.
With that in mind, Olivia shook her head and approached them. “Sister-in-law, Elaine, stop quarreling here. This is the lobby. Many people are watching."
Dorothy turned around and glared at her. "It's none of your business."
Olivia lifted her eyebrows and pointed at the elevator. "It's none of my business, but you're blocking my way."
"Of all the elevators, do you have to take this one?" Dorothy retorted.
"Sister-in-law, why are you throwing a tantrum at me? The other elevators don't go to the odd-numbered floors. You know that, don't you?"
"Fine! You win."
