As soon as she said that, Ethan looked at her with a prying look. His fingers traced lightly along her neck. "Jealous?""You must be joking, Mr. Miller. I am in no position to be jealous."Ethan saw the hint of disgust in her eyes. He bent over and kissed her neck. He even had the urge to bite down fiercely for a moment so that he could get rid of all of the complications between them in one bite.Olivia's resistance was apparent. Ethan raised her hands above her head. He held her chin with his fingers and said slowly, "Since you know your place, why are you resisting my touch?" Olivia frowned and said, "Why are you acting all crazy here, Ethan?" He smirked and let go of her chin. He began to unbutton her top. Olivia had a deal with him. She couldn't resist. She shouldn't resist. She could only mention the Carltons. "Ethan, you made a promise at the Carlton residence. Why are you breaking your promise and touching me now?" "What's the matter with playing around with a mistress?

The pent-up anger overwhelmed Olivia as she glared at Ethan. "It's not like I'm your only woman. "Why does it have to be me? Marina is just right downstairs. Should I call her over?""It's because you're the only one for me!" he said aloud in his head.However, that answer was buried deep in his heart. He tightened his grasp around her waist, inhaling a deep breath.He said, "Must you put up a fight with me over this kind of matter?"Olivia barely suppressed the urge to tell him how much he disgusted her. She was aware that their relationship was as rigid as ever. Thus, she needed to keep her emotions under control.Confronting him recklessly wouldn't do her good.As an afterthought, she decided to compromise. She lowered her head. "I just … can't get used to it."Taking a step back, as she had expected, never failed to work wonders whenever facing Ethan.He watched her exposed nape. It was as if a kitty was revealing its weakness. It managed to appease his anger a little

Alarmed, Olivia hurriedly explained, "I noticed some loopholes after reading those documents. "That info isn't sufficient enough to prove that my father murdered your sister. There is no evidence or witness. It's just a speculation of my father's motive."Ethan shoved the plates off the table.The warmth on his face gave way to coldness. He seemed to be the man he was from three months ago.Before Olivia could explain her stance further, he stood up and looked at her intimidatingly."Firstly, a DNA test was done on that body. It was my sister. "Secondly, I've done another DNA test between the baby in her womb and your father. They were genetically related."Thirdly, I've looked into what happened to Leia before her death. "Be it her contact history or other records. Jeff was the person she contacted the most."Lastly, the final person she met was Jeff, too. Who else could it be other than him?"If you're demanding a witness, are you going to ask for a medical miracle so th

Olivia turned her head to look at the incoming person. It was Clara Foster, the leader of Team B.She seemed angry.Her team members lowered their heads as soon as they saw her. "Ms. Foster."Her cold gaze swept across them. "Have you finished your job? Is the proposal approved?""No.""Well, get back to your work then.""Yes, Ms. Foster." They ran away without looking back.Clara looked at Olivia, smiling mockingly. "There are a lot of ways to get to higher positions, young lady."There's no need to choose the hardest way. "Even if you're able to get high up there with it, you're the one in trouble when someone kicks you off the top."Now that things had gone this far, explanations wouldn't help either. Olivia figured that she might as well accept it. "Thank you for the reminder, Ms. Foster."Something was off. Even if Team C managed to get the deal, why was everyone slandering her?Since she was still a newcomer, no one would tell her, even if there was a rumor circula

Olivia didn't have a video. It was a mere trick to force Sophia into telling the truth.In fact, Sophia's mentality was not that strong enough as she ended up exposing Jackson.With the so-called video in Olivia's hands, Sophia would keep herself under the radar for a while.Furthermore, it was apparent that Jackson was another chess piece of that mastermind.Although Olviia didn't know who the mastermind was, there was one thing she was confident about—she came to the right place.The mastermind should be hiding within Miller Group. He knew her like the back of his hand too.Now, she had a clear direction for her investigation.She needed a detailed plan to lure the mastermind to show himself.…Considering that Team C was able to make a deal with Elijah—the infamous stubborn client—the team members were in a good mood.Just then, an unexpected guest came for a visit. Someone said, "Gosh, it's Mrs. Miller!"The mention of Mrs. Miller prompted Olivia to raise her head.So
