Antonio had been staying at Olivia's home and chatting with Olivia's mother for the afternoon.
Antonio looked at the setting sun in the sky and the watch on his wrist. It was getting late, but Olivia still didn't come back, which made him frown.
After one more while, Antonio finally lost all his patience. It seemed that he had to come here another day or let someone take Olivia to see him directly.
He got up and smiled apologetically at Olivia's mother, "Auntie, it's late and Olivia hasn't come back yet. I think I’d better come to find him on another day."
Hearing this, Olivia's mother made a little effort to let him stay. Seeing that Antonio insisted on leaving, she no longer insisted on it.
She murmured, "It's strange. Ollie should have been back at this time."
When she just finished her words, Antonio had already walked to the door and put one hand on the doorknob.
However, at this moment, there was a knock at the door.
"Mom, I'm back." The knock was accompanied by a young man's voice.
Antonio smiled and withdrew his hand from the doorknob.
"I'm coming. I'm coming." Olivia's mother answered with a smile and went to open the door quickly, "Ollie, one of your friend has come to see you."
Olivia was stunned at hearing this, then looked away from his mother and stared at Antonio.
He had a puzzled expression on his face. Obviously, he didn't have any memory about Antonio in his mind at all.
When he was stunned, Antonio had already stretched out a slender hand, "Hello, I'm Antonio, the president of the Baron Group."
Antonio spoke in an extremely calm voice, but Olivia's expression changed instantly when he heard this.
Before, he was entrusted by a friend and found a girl to go to the Baron Group to make trouble. Therefore, he also had a certain understanding of the Baron Group. Besides, Antonio was originally a celebrity in J City, and Olivia often saw Antonio on TV and in the newspapers.
He didn't recognize Antonio just was because he had never dealt with Antonio before and had never seen Antonio with his own eyes.
Olivia stretched out a hand stiffly and shook hands with Antonio. By this time his mind had been in turmoil.
Although he didn't receive much education, he was not a fool either. He had never dealt with Antonio. Why would Antonio come to find him?
Moreover, Antonio was a celebrity in J City while he was just an ordinary person in the world.
Then there was only one possibility left: Antonio already knew what he had done!
Thinking of this, Olivia almost had an impulse to immediately withdraw his hand and run away. However, he knew he would be found no matter where he went because Antonio was powerful. It could be proved by the fact that Antonio could find his home.
