Chapter 788
With so much happening in one day, Olivia could not sleep.
She could only turn on her phone to see if she had anything to kill time.
However, she saw a trending post about Dorothy once she turned on her phone. Then she remembered that she had not thanked Mr. M yet.
Therefore, she hurriedly texted him.
Olivia: [Thank you for today, Sir. But... I asked this before, but I like to ask again. Why on earth did you help me?]
He quickly texted her back.
Mr. M: [Does your husband suspect you? Or do you not trust me and think I'm up to something?]
Olivia pressed her lips together. Mr. M was always so straight to the point that she felt she had gone too far instead.
Olivia: [No, it's just that you helped me buy a house and avenged me. I kept feeling like I owed you. After all, I've done nothing for you.]
Mr. M: [Ms. James, why are you so polite to me? Don't forget. You helped me sort out an old problem, so you deserve my help.]
Mr. M texted again after a while.
Mr. M: [What's more, I didn't do what I did today only to help you. I have my agenda.]
Olivia frowned.
Olivia: [Your agenda?]
Mr. M: [I came to Ocean City to do business. I'm interested in becoming a shareholder of Quinton Group. Now that the Quinton family has a rumor like that, I can buy the shares at a lower price. Besides, the Quinton family will beg me to buy, don't you think?]
Olivia's heart instantly sank when she heard that.
However, the relief was mixed with a sense of weirdness.
Although Quinton Group was still in Jimmy's hands, it would eventually return to Zac.
Would Mr. M... be Zac's enemy in the future?
