Chapter 176 Was Her Love All an Act Olivia glanced at the photo. My photography skills are decent. âLetâs keep going?
Finished Alexander watched as Olivia treated him like a mere prop, his brows knitting slightly. He should have rejected her nonsense, but his body remained motionless. He allowed Olivia to dart around, gathering a bundle of flowers and stuffing them into his arms.
Holding the flowers, Alexander couldnât help but feel that this scene... was oddly unsettling.
Before he could react, Olivia had already closed the distance, naturally linking her arm with his and leaning against him.
Alexanderâs gaze deepened.
âClick.â Olivia snapped the second photo.
Alexanderâs eyes flicked to the phone screen. In the photo, Olivia wore a sweet and joyful smile, nestled close to him like a woman deeply in love.
Yet... Alexander turned to look at the woman who had now put some space between them. Oliviaâs face carried nothing but indifference, a far cry from the radiant figure in the photo.
She truly was... a master actress! So, was her supposed devotion to him all just a performance?
Alexanderâs gaze fixed on Olivia, as if trying to uncover what was going on in her mind. Every move shè had made recently was wildly unpredictable, they were reckless, daring, and mischievous, completely unlike her past self.
He had never cared to understand this woman, whom Liam had practically forced into his life. But now...
Olivia quickly took seven or eight photos, deciding it was enough to placate Liam. She then sent a few to him and, with a mischievous glint in her eye, casually forwarded a photo of her and Alexander holding hands to Georgina.
At a beauty salon, Georgina was in the middle of a skincare session when her phone suddenly buzzed with a text.
Opening it, she found a picture Olivia had sent, it was two hands clasped tightly together. The photo showed no faces, but Georgina didnât need a second guess to identify whose hands they were. In an instant, she was so furious that the face mask on her skin cracked.
âWith You, Under the Skyâ was a new variety show that Tobie daringly launched as a live broadcast. The first episode featured six participants, including Olivia.
The shoot took place in a remote mountain village, cut off from much of the urban world.
When Olivia arrived, the other participants hadnât shown up yet, so she waited in a temporary lounge.
Jared had been preparing ever since learning Olivia would be part of the show. Today, he came armed with an oversized backpack.
âOlivia, the weatherâs hot, and there are loads of mosquitoes in the mountains. I bought all kinds of repellents for you,â Jared said, pulling out sprays and bracelets and handing them to Olivia.
Olivia glanced at the items, torn between amusement and exasperation. âYou know the company wonât reimburse you for these...â

Even their tickets for the trip were the cheapest ones available..
Jared grinned broadly. âDonât worry, I paid for them myself.â
6 Finished Olivia raised an eyebrow. âYouâre fresh out of college. Whereâd you get the money for this?â Just the pile of items in her hands probably cost over four figures.
Jared hesitated before stammering, âI... I saved up from partâtime jobs.â Then, as if to change the topic, he asked, âOlivia, why arenât you wearing glasses today?â
Olivia answered, âI donât wear them while working.â If S Rona Academy students watch this show, wouldnât my identity be completely exposed?
