Adam Howard nods, very serious, âI attended the same school as Daniel Marshall, so I know him relatively well. If you want to learn about him, Iâm all ears.â
After some hesitation, Olivia Jenkins doesnât say anything and just gets into the car.
Just before Adam starts driving, he vacillates for a while, then finally brings himself to voice his suspicion, âDo you like Daniel?â
His question touching upon her secret, Olivia plays it cool as she chuckles, âActually, we should have let Martin Wallace go first to slam you.â
âIn fact, I approve of you two. You look good together. If you love him, thereâs nothing to be ashamed of; even a bystander will notice that. He likes you too.â
Oliviaâs long eyelashes flutter, her bright almond eyes crystal clear as water, âI really envy your friendship. Daniel isnât as pitiful as you suggest â at least he has some good brothers nobody else can match.â
âBefore he got married, even though we were very close, Daniel probably felt his heart was empty. Itâs because of you, perhaps, that heâs truly come alive.â
Olivia laughs self-deprecatingly, without saying a word.
Her heartache, she finds hard to confess.
She doesnât want to reveal her sorrow in front of others.
The pain and pleasure we feel are known only to ourselves! We just appreciate each other!
Abigail Anderson didnât wake up until noon.
The moment she checks her phone, sheâs snapped right out of her trance.
The entire internet is buzzing over her being Jordan Bennettâs new lover.
The whole network is betting on her expiry date â one month, two months, and at most, six months.
All over the internet, theyâre mocking her for climbing the ladder using connections to become a COOKIE anchor.
Abigail wakes up to find that she has become the talk of the town overnight, and netizens are comparing her to Olivia. Some people are belittling her, saying sheâs nothing compared to Olivia, Jordan Bennett must be just playing with her, and mocking her for leveraging Jordan for resourcesâ¦
They had agreed to be âcontractâ boyfriend and girlfriend for just three months, agreed not to fall in love, not to mingle their personal lives. Now, the cats out of the bag, and Jordan Bennettâs announcing to the world that sheâs his girlfriend.
Jordan Bennett has crossed the line!
Abigailâs anger flares, her eyes flashing dangerously.
Furious and humiliated, Abigail is about to call and berate Jordan Bennett, when suddenly, the doorbell rings.
If it isnât the landlord then it has to be Jordan Bennett. Apart from the landlord, only Jordan Bennett knows where she lives. In a flash, Abigail takes a fruitless fruit bowl and goes to the door.
Looking through the peephole, Abigail confirms that the person outside is Jordan Bennett.
Abigail opens the door prepared. The fruit bowl in her hand goes directly to Jordan Bennett.
Jordan Bennett is also prepared. He is aware that the media is watching him closely. The moment Abigail opens the door, he pulls her waist and takes her inside her house at lightning speed.
Before Abigail could react, she was pinned against the wall by Jordan, the fruit bowl falling to the ground in shock.
Having had enough, Abigail is about to lash out, but her mouth is covered by Jordan.
Moreover, Jordan motions for her to stay quiet.
Abigail, seething with anger, kicks Jordan viciously in retaliation.
Instantly, Jordan winces in pain.
Abigail glares scornfully at Jordan, swept by a short-lived joy of revenge.
Bearing the pain, Jordan Bennettâs warm breath softly brushes against her ear. âI can let you go, just donât make a sound. Somebody is taking pictures.â
The two stare at each other for a few seconds, Jordan, seeing Abigail is no longer overreacting, cautiously lets go.
Out of the blue, Abigail kicks Jordan again, âYou asshole, you deserve to be taught a lesson!â
