Chapter 2 Can’t Believe She Is a Thief
Seven years later, at the airport.
“Olivia, this way!” Nathan Baker happily waved at the woman coming out of the airport.
The woman was tall and slender; she wore oversized shades over her fair and delicate-looking face, and her slightly raised chin set off her long and slender neck. In her hand, a beige suitcase was smoothly sliding across the ground, and a cute little boy sat on top of the suitcase.
The little boy looked no more than six or seven years old. Wearing a windbreaker in the same style as Olivia, he sat atop the suitcase in a well-behaved manner and gave off an extremely likable vibe.
Nathan walked up to them and greeted them, then took the luggage from Olivia’s hands and jokingly said, “You’ve finally arrived, Doctor Bailey! You made me wait for such a long time! It was so painful!”
Olivia handed her luggage over to the man in front of her, lazily glancing sideways at him. “Mr. Baker, I didn’t make you wait!”
“Nathan, I think it’s better if you don’t mess with Mommy,” North Maxwell, the little boy sitting on the suitcase, said.
“Little brat, you should address me as ‘Uncle Nathan’; do you understand?”
“Nah, I’ll stick to Nathan.”
Olivia glanced at the two of them, who quarreled daily, with an expression of indifference and said, “Wait here for me. I’m going to the restroom.”
After saying that, she turned around and hurried toward the direction of the restroom.
She had only taken several steps when she suddenly saw a man wearing a baseball cap, sneakily and suspiciously following behind a young girl.
Then, the man reached his hand into the girl’s coat pocket while the girl wasn’t paying attention and pocketed her a brand-new phone without a single trace.
His actions were smooth and confident—he was accustomed to pickpocketing.
Upon seeing that, the corners of Olivia’s mouth raised slightly in a smooth arc. Stealing in broad daylight? Alright; since I’m free, I’ll do a little good deed today.
Thus, she lowered her head and deliberately ran into the man. She even pretended to stagger backward due to the impact. “Oh, my! I’m sorry; I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to knock into you!”
The man frowned slightly. He looked vicious and was about to lose his temper. However, when he saw her pretty face, his expression changed completely, and he smilingly said, “It’s no big deal. Miss, are you alright?”
She shook her head charmingly. “I’m okay. Sorry for knocking into you.”
By the time the two of them went their own ways, the phone was already in Olivia’s hands. After that, she looked back at the guy, raising her brows as she smiled slightly.
As it so happened, this scene was witnessed by Eugene Nolan, who had just gotten off the plane. The man had a slender body and a cold, handsome face. Moreover, his entire body gave off a sense of dignity that was unparalleled.
Upon witnessing the scene, he frowned slightly. I can’t believe such a beautiful woman would turn out to be a thief.
He found himself feeling slightly disappointed, but he did not plan to interfere in the matter.
At that moment, his assistant, Curtis Wood, took the luggage out of his hands. “President Nolan, did you manage to find that genius doctor?”
Eugene rubbed at his temples tiredly. “We were one step too late. I heard the doctor returned to Criecia today. Please get somebody to investigate it quickly.”
