Chapter 9 Stay
away From My Husband
Upon seeing the message, Olivia immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, the soreness in her
body had not completely
disappeared.
Especially in her private
area, she still felt pain when walking.
She took out her phone and replied with her slender
fingers, [Thank you.]
*****
After seeing the reply, Alex’s
face turned serious.
Milo drove while
respectfully asking, “Mr. Adams, are we heading back to the company? There’s a meeting this afternoon that you need to attend.”
“Yes.”
Milo put away his phone and
resumed his previous
dignified and cold
demeanor.
After replying to Alex’s message, Olivia opened her
laptop, ready to continue working on her resume.
She had prepared this resume a few days ago but felt it wasn’t good enough, so she planned to make some
revisions.
As she edited her resume,
she said to Grace, who was in
the bunk below hers, “Grace,
can you help me rent a place?”
Grace glanced at her and
replied, “Sure.”
They were already in their
final year
of university and
needed to find an internship. The school dormitory was
no longer suitable for them.
Grace said, “Olivia, I don’t
want to live at home either.
Why don’t we rent a place
together?”
Upon hearing this, Olivia looked at her and asked,
“Why don’t you want to go
home either?”
Grace pondered for a
moment before saying, “I
have an annoying brother at
home.”
After speaking, she sighed
softly.
Three days later, Olivia
finished an interview and felt
confident in her
performance.
At that moment, she
received a call from the HR
department.
“Congratulations, Miss Hall, you’ve been accepted.”
Olivia hung up the phone and immediately invited
Grace to have dinner
together to celebrate.
Just as they had ordered
their food and were about to
start eating, Olivia received
another call from the HR department.
“Miss Hall, we’re sorry to
inform you that the
headcount for interns at our
company has been filled.”
Upon hearing this, Olivia was taken aback.
She clenched the phone in her hand subconsciously.
Olivia asked, “What about the acceptance letter I just received? Was that fake?”
The HR rep was somewhat embarrassed and explained,
“Miss Hall, we’re truly sorry.
We’ve just found a more
suitable candidate.”
Olivia sighed lightly, feeling
somewhat angry.
“How can you change your
decision like this? Have you
learned about laws regarding
labor rioghts? I can sue you for this.”
Feeling that they had made a big mistake, the HR rep hurriedly explained, “Miss
Rosa Hall is affiliated with
the Adams Corporation. She
was the one that told us not
to hire you. We had no
choice.”
Upon hearing this, Olivia
suddenly understood and
promptly hung up the phone.
Grace slammed her hand on
the table in anger. “Rosa did
it on purpose.”
Olivia gently patted her hand. “Forget it, I’ll check out other companies.”
Olivia felt like the food in
her mouth didn’t taste as
good anymore.
As they were eating, a guy
wearing a white shirt
approached them.
Grace waved at him, “Hey,
we are here.”
Olivia whispered, “Grace,
who is this guy?”
“He’s Henry Martin.”
After saying that, Grace
added, “Didn’t you want to
rent a place? He has some rental listings and has helped
many students find
accommodation.”
Olivia nodded. “I see.”
Henry came over and sat
next to Grace, taking the
initiative to introduce
himself, “Olivia, don’t you
remember me? I often play
basketball with Oliver.”
Upon hearing this, Olivia was surprised and realized why he looked familiar.
Henry continued, “How are you and Oliver doing? I had high hopes for you guys back then.”
Olivia didn’t know what to
say.
She felt very embarrassed.
After some thought, she replied, “Henry, let’s not talk
about him. We’ve broken
up.”
Upon hearing this, Henry
looked embarrassed.
*****
Grace said, “Henry, Olivia wants to rent a place, could you please help with it?”
Henry replied, “No problem. Olivia, how big of a place are
you looking for?”
Olivia pondered for a
moment and said, “It’s just
the two of us, me and Grace,
so it doesn’t need to be too
big. It would be best if it’s
furnished.”
“Alright.”
After that, Henry glanced meaningfully at Olivia.
After finishing their meal, they set off to visit an apartment in the southern
part of the city, which was quite remote, almost to the
suburbs.
Henry recommended a
third–floor unit, which was
nicely decorated and fully
furnished for immediate
move–in.
“It’s a bit remote, so the
transportation might not be very convenient. Can you accept that? It’s 600 dollars a month, but since we’re
alumni, I’ll charge you 400
dollars, you two can split it.‘
Olivia looked at Grace and
asked, “Grace, what do you
think?”
Grace pondered for a
moment. “I think it’s fine.”
Olivia said, “Then let’s go
with this place.”
Grace nodded. “Okay.”
The two expressed their
gratitude to Henry.
“No need, it’s just a small
favor.”
Henry handed them a key
and said, “You don’t need to
pay rent yet, just pay at the
end of the month.”
Olivia said, “Okay.”
After Henry left, Olivia and Grace entered the cozy little
apartment. The rooms were
decorated with pink
wallpaper and appeared very
feminine.
“Olivia, do you like it here?”
Grace asked.
Olivia said, “It seems fine to
- me. Let’s tidy up a bit.”
The two quickly tidied up the apartment. They felt tired afterward and lay down
on a bed to rest.
Olivia thought, ‘I finally have a place for myself besides the Hall family and the dorm.‘
While it was still early, the two went out to a bus stop
and then took the bus back
to school.
*****
The next day, news spread about Rosa’s engagement.
She even generously handed
out candies to all her
classmates, proudly
proclaiming that she was
about to marry into a
wealthy family.
At this time, a student who
was close to Rosa
approached her and said,
“Rosa, your dress must be
expensive, it looks so beautiful.”
“It’s alright. It only cost a few
thousand dollars.” Rosa
looked at everyone with a
smile.
Another student exclaimed,
“Rosa, you’re really lucky. Is
that bag the latest from
Hermes?”
*****
Olivia sat at her desk and
had headphones on. She
didn’t pay any attention to
what others were saying.
Suddenly, with a bang, Rosa
slammed her desk.
Olivia looked at her puzzled,
“Are you crazy?”
Rosa said angrily, “Olivia,
you’d better stay away from
my husband in the future. If I catch you getting close to him again, 1 I’ll break your legs.”
Upon hearing this, Olivia
stood up suddenly and said,
“Do you want to fight?”
Her eyes showed a hint of
fierceness.
Rosa was startled by her
reaction, she had never seen
Olivia look like this before.
But she quickly regained her composure and muttered,
“You poor thing, with your
look, you’ll never be able to
get involved with the Adams family in this lifetime.”
Olivia was speechless.
She thought, ‘This is
ridiculous. Does she think
everyone wants to be
affiliated with the Adams
family like she does?‘
