Chapter 139 Would Olivia See Him as Creepy?
The moment Chris offered to drive Olivia home, everyone, including Chris himself, was left dumbfounded.
Chris thought, oh no, did I actually just say that?

Olivia arched an eyebrow. “Hey, the scene’s over. Time to snap out of it.” She turned on her heel and entered the dressing room without another word.
Chris’s face turned beet red, and with a yelp of embarrassment, he darted into his private dressing room. Oh my
God! That was the dumbest thing I’ve ever done! Someone help me! Does Olivia think I’m a creep now?
Outside, Chris’s agent stood by the dressing room door looking utterly defeated.
Amelia, having witnessed the entire awkward exchange, couldn’t shake her growing unease. Olivia’s beauty and acting had both exceeded expectations, which only heightened her anxiety. What unsettled her even more was Olivia’s complete indifference to her presence. In the past, Olivia would have eagerly approached her the moment they crossed paths. Now, it was as though Amelia didn’t exist.
Noticing the absence of both Daniel and Eve, Amelia composed herself and knocked on Olivia’s dressing room door after seeing her go inside.
When Olivia opened the door and saw Amelia standing there, her expression remained calm, showing no sign of surprise.
“Olivia, your performance today was incredible,” Amelia said, her face glowing with a seemingly genuine smile, as though she were truly proud of her.
Olivia looked at Amelia, the sister she had cherished and trusted in her past life. “Thank you,” she replied coolly before turning around to grab her coat. There were no pleasantries, no warm affection that Amelia had expected. Olivia’s attitude was shockingly indifferent.
“I was a little worried about you before, but after seeing your performance today, I’m relieved,” Amelia said, stepping into the dressing room with Daisy following behind. Daisy quietly shut the door behind them.
Once the door was closed, Amelia’s tone shifted slightly. “Olivia, about James… Mom and Dad were upset for a while, but I’ve already smoothed things over with them. You should come home for dinner when you have time.”
James’s recent arrest for stealing a car had infuriated the Carter family parents.
“If they’re upset, they can take it up with the car’s owner,” Olivia replied coolly, fully aware of what Amelia was trying to imply. But she wasn’t the gullible person she had been in her past life.
Amelia had anticipated gratitude, but Olivia’s mention of Alexander took her by surprise. In truth, Amelia had only stepped in to calm their parents once she learned the car James had stolen belonged to Alexander. If the matter escalated, it would only spell trouble for the Carter family.
“James is still young. He can be reckless at times, but he didn’t mean any harm. He’s just a little too playful,” Amelia said, attempting to defend him.
Olivia finished putting on her coat and replied bluntly, “He’s old enough to be charged as an adult.”
