Chapter 441 After discussing the design, Olivia and Jennie walked Xavier to the door.
âAre you free this evening, Ms. James? Can we have dinner together? Consider it me making up to you, okay?â
Olivia shook her head. âSorry, my brother cooks for me every day.â
Xavier smiled awkwardly. âMs. James, you still have a problem with me. It seems it would take me a long time to change your impression of me.â
Olivia said nothing but gave a perfunctory smile.
After Xavier was gone, Jennie dragged Olivia into her office.
âPheebs, whatâs going on? Why do I get the feeling heâs attracted to you?â
Olivia rolled her eyes at her. âAm I supposed to be happy that a jerk is attracted to me?â
âNo, what if itâs all a misunderstanding?â
âEven if itâs a misunderstanding.â Olivia turned around and walked outside. âDonât forget Iâm also a mother. Iâm going to sketch.â
Xavier did not find Olivia again after that, and the matter was considered over.
It was not until a few nights later that Olivia got a sudden phone call while she was sound asleep.
âMs. James, Iâm sorry. This is Reminisce Bar. Mr. Hemsworth is drunk. Youâre the emergency contact on his phone, so we can only call you. Could you come and pick him up?â
âA bar?â
Olivia sobered up instantly. âWhoâs drunk?â
âMr. Hemsworth.â
âThat womanizer?â
What did his being drunk have to do with her?
After thinking about it, she decided to hang up.
âWho did you call? I told you I wasnât drunk. Whatâs wrong with you?â
âWhat if she misunderstands again?â
It was Xavierâs voice, followed by the bartenders. âSorry, Mr. Hemsworth. Iâm afraid. something bad will happen to you when youâre already so drunk.â
âWhat does it have to do with you? Give me my phone back and f*ck off!â
Then the phone hung up.
Olivia lay in bed pondering. Tossing and turning, she eventually got up, got changed, and went out.
She did not want to be nosy, but she was worried about the guy causing trouble at the bar.
He was the atelierâs client after all.
Yesterday, Jennie showed her the company accounts and realized they did not have much. business recently, so she did not want to lose Xavier as a client.
However, when she got to Reminisce Bar, she regretted it.
Once inside, she saw the man sitting at the bar counter, drinking glass after glass. He had a woman on each arm, looking intimate.
âHe seems to be drunk?â
Olivia walked up behind him and hit him with her bag. âMr. Hemsworth, look at you. Even if youâre drunk, you have no lack of people to send you home. Iâm leaving.â
She was about to leave when Xavier pushed away the women and grabbed her.
âLook. Thereâs no one left. Since youâre here, have a drink with me.â
Olivia frowned. âMr. Hemsworth, I donât think I know you well enough to drink with. I you.
wouldnât have come if you werenât scolding the bartender on the phone.â
With that said, she looked at the man at the bar counter and saw his cheeks reddish. âDid he hit you?â
The bartender shook his head and then nodded again. âItâs okay. Mr. Hemsworthâs drunk.â
Xavier suddenly hugged her. âThank you for picking me up, Ms. James. I canât think of anyone else besides you.â
âDonât be touched. I did it for money.â Olivia pushed him away. âGet up. Iâll send you home.â
As they pushed and tugged, Olivia suddenly looked up to see a familiar yet unfamiliar figure walking in from outside.
Even in the bright light, she could make him out clearly.
He was as handsome as ever and seemed to have a better temperament.
Suddenly, the man looked back in her direction. She lowered her head and ran out with Xavier.
They only looked at each other briefly, but it was enough to mess with Oliviaâs breathing.
It turned out you could not forget some people just because you did not see them.
