Chapter 3856: Chapter 3857

Cecilia smiled and scribbled her signature.

After signing, she grabbed her daughter and was about to exit when Sharon stepped up and blocked her path.

“But you haven’t paid up yet! If you’re short on cash, Mr.

Jones can spot you.

”

Cecilia wasn’t feeling this vibe.

She shot a look at Raphael, who stood behind Sharon.

He stayed silent, his eyes locked on Olivia, torn between love and loathing.

Cecilia smiled faintly and remarked, “It doesn’t matter whether we pay by card or not.

Besides, I’m afraid you can’t make such decisions for Mr.

Jones.

”

After saying this, she departed with Olivia.

As they were passing by Raphael, he instinctively held Olivia’s hand and inquired, “Are you really going to marry Dylan?”

“That’s none of your concern,” Olivia retorted, pulling her hand away and following her mother.

After they left, Sharon wasted no time and went straight to the shop assistant for some gossip.

The store manager came over, looking all sour-faced.

“That Lady was Mrs.

Evans.

Even if they emptied the whole store, they could still pay for it with pocket change, let alone only those few pieces.

You know what? The whole building belongs to the Evans family! And let’s not blow things out of proportion.

Miss Evans is single now.

It’s Miss Fowler, Mrs.

Evans’ niece, who’s tying the knot.

Have you heard about her and Mr.

Douglas? They’ve had more drama than a soap opera but are finally giving marriage another shot, planning some big, fancy wedding!”

Sharon was shocked.

Olivia was from the Evans family?

She glanced at Raphael, who stayed silent and just left.

She quickly followed him and inquired, “You knew, didn’t you? You knew her real identity, so you’ve been clinging to her all this time?”

Raphael halted, casting a cold glance at Sharon.

“You’re overthinking it,” he stated before departing.

Sharon choked back tears and exclaimed, “Raphael, you can’t deny it.

You’ve rejected me all these years because you still love her, don’t you? Now that you see her wealthy background, how could she ever return to you? She dumped you back then because she thought you were beneath her.

She was just playing with you.

Raphael ignored her.

Later that afternoon, Sharon received a notice from the human resources department instructing her to relocate to the overseas branch for two years.

Furious, she promptly phoned Kiley, Raphael’s mother.

She was certain Kiley would take her side.

In Kiley’s eyes, Sharon was the ideal daughter-in-law for their family.

After departing the mall, Olivia was in a sour mood.

Seated in the car, she remained silent.

Cecilia turned to her and said gently, “It’s been years, but you still haven’t let go! If you truly care for him, go get him back.

He and the woman beside him don’t seem compatible.

See the way he looked at her? I doubt they’re in a relationship.

”

Neither Mark nor Cecilia was aware of Raphael’s family background.

Olivia remained silent on the matter.

Her relationship with Raphael had dissolved over time.

She opted for silence on the matter.
