Getting Him Hooked: Mr. Freeman's Indifferent Sinner Wife

Chapter 721

“Are you free on Saturday?”

“Why are you asking?”

Olivia had no idea why, but she felt suspicious and was cautious when she was dealing with John. It was probably because of what happened to Jennie.

“It’s Sam’s birthday on Saturday.”

Sam’s birthday?

Startled, Olivia still did not let go of her doubt. “Are you sure? Would he tell you that?”

“Of course. I can make him talk.”

She frowned upon hearing that. “Don’t hurt him.”

John felt helpless. “Liv, what kind of person do you think I am? He is a child, and I would never hurt him.”

“It’d be better if you didn’t.”

Then, Olivia paused for a second and continued. “I’m free on Saturday. What’s the plan?”

“I bought a phone for him. You can discuss the details with him yourself.”

“That will do. Thank you.”

John pursed his lips. “Don’t thank me. It would be nice if you were less suspicious of me.”

Olivia did not answer. She hung up the call instead.

Once she got into the taxi, she called the atelier’s assistant and asked them to help her with any new orders.

The assistant was happy to hearthat. “Ms. James, it’s great that you have decided on this. I was so afraid that you would give up on designing.”

“Don’t worry. Designing is my career and my dream. I’ll never give up on it.”

“That’s great. I’ve already taken a few orders. I’ll send them to you and you tell me what to take and what not to.”

“Okay. Thank you. I’ll arrange a raise for you this month.”

The assistant shook her head and said, “Ms. James, actually, there is no need to worry so much. Your house was sold, you spent money to buy the studio, and you gave us an advance on our salary. You would have lost a lot of money. Without your designs, the studio wouldn’t operate very well. Why don’t we just focus on raising the sales now?”

Olivia’s heart warmed. “Okay. Thank you very much.”

“We know that you treat us well.”

After hanging up the call, Olivia leaned against the window, lost in thought.

‘Are all people not to be trusted, or are just some people not to be trusted?’

Remembering the suite in Murica, she contacted Mr. M again.

[Did you buy my apartment, sir?]

[Yes.]

(Sir, I’m sorry to make you spend more money. When I have the time to return to take things, you can sell it off. At least you won’t lose too much money.]

[Take your time. I don’t plan to sell the house again. After all, I don’t need the money.]

After a while, Mr. M sent another message: [I just don’t like to see others bullying you, especially if that person is your good friend.]

Olivia was grateful, but she did not have much money on hand.

Now, she owed Mr. M a large sum of money and Zac tens of millions. She might have to live the rest of her life in debt.

At first, she thought opening an atelier could help her save some money, but her debts grew instead…

[Thank you, sir. However, the house costs a lot of money for me, so I don’t want to owe you too much. Sir, I’ll clear out the things in it and help you sell off the house when I get back.]

[No. I don’t have a house here. I can use it when I’m on a business trip. It’s not a loss buying this house. You don’t have to think too much about it.]

The man typing on the phone sat in the dark room. After sending this message, he chuckled, got up, and walked to the balcony. He reached over and pulled back the curtain, letting the sunlight shine into the room again. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
