Chapter 900
"I'm fine."
Olivia slapped his hand away, stood up, and pointed at the mushroom soup. "Now that you're here, drink this mushroom soup as supper."
"That's inappropriate...’
"Drink it since I told you to. Don't tell me nonsense. Be careful, or I'll fire you."
"Don't." Harry quickly gave in. "I need my salary to pay my school fees. I can't afford to lose this job."
"Why aren't you drinking it?"
After the scene that Mrs. Simmons and Harry made, Olivia knew the two would continue nagging non-stop if she did not leave.

"Mrs. Simmons, you were advising me earlier. How can you..."
"Miss, don't worry. I'm fine. It's just for one night. It'll be alright. I know it's just for once."
With that, Mrs. Simmons pushed Olivia out. "Go home. I caught up on my sleep during the day. I'll call you right away if they wake up."
Olivia could not do anything about her.

There was no way to keep arguing like this, and she could only compromise in the end.
"Alright, but sleep when you're tired, got it? Don't be stubborn."
"Okay, got it. Miss, how can a young woman like you nag more than an old woman like me?"
With that said, she locked Olivia outside. Miss, hurry back."
