Chapter 120
Unexpectedly, Nathaniel walked to the door.
“What do you mean, you‘re okay?” Olivia‘s mother raised her hand and thumped her. “I see you haven‘t been well. I thought you were on leave, but it turns out that you‘re just lazy! What were you planning to do since you‘re too lazy to even go to work?”
Her mother spoke while hitting Olivia a few times. Olivia did not dodge but said helplessly, “Mom, don‘t worry about it. Go on with your errands.
“It‘s not that I want to boss you around, but you should know how to be responsible. Even your boss had to come to find you! Now tell me, when will you straighten up?” “Mom...” Olivia grew very helpless. Nathaniel, standing at the door, seemed to be watching a play.
He waited for Olivia to be smacked a few times before he cleared his throat and stopped her mother. “Mrs. Hart, I think Olivia may have some other reasons. Don‘t blame her. I‘m not here to find her guilty. I‘m just concerned if she‘s uncomfortable or had encountered difficulties.”
“Mr. Hall, if there‘s anything you want to say, can we talk outside?” Looking at him, Olivia was very annoyed.
She had underestimated him. He was more despicable than she imagined! He went to her home and used her mother to pressure her.
Anyway, he achieved his goal. Nathaniel spread his hands wide and replied, “Sure, why not?” Olivia‘s mother had already made the tea, and when she heard Olivia‘s words, she put down the teapot and said, “Mr. Hall, I‘ve spoiled Olivia a little. Sometimes she may be willful, but she‘s still a good child. If she gets lazy at work, please scold her. She still needs this job, though!”
“Mom, stop talking!” Olivia smacked her own forehead. The situation was getting out of hand.
Olivia and Nathaniel went to the coffee shop downstairs. He ordered two cups of coffee, but she was in no mood to drink.
