Chapter 949 Couldn’t Resist Joining In

He walked out right after saying that.

Christoff couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and helplessness, having watched the entire drama

unfold. He took a few steps toward Stefanie and smiled.

"So, you wanted to catch her and then secretly dismiss her, huh? I must say, you are surprisingly

avant-garde! Still, I agree with Olivia. If you can control your son, then go ahead and do so. If you can't,

then let him go. What kind of people do you think they are to quietly let you take advantage of them?

You have ended up bearing the brunt of the criticism on top of embarrassing yourself. Isn't it more

trouble than it's worth?"

Hearing that, Stefanie glared at Christoff and hissed, "And who the hell are you?"

Christoff's lips curled into a sly smile. "Me? Take a guess," he teased before waltzing away.

Stefanie sneered and cursed, "I bet Olivia isn't a good woman. She is seeing Eugene and flirting with

you at the same time!"

Christoff, who had already reached the door, turned back when he heard those words. He crossed his

arms in front of his chest and looked at Stefanie with a sarcastic gaze. "Ma'am, you can insult me, but

you can't insult Olivia. Our relationship is indeed ambiguous, but I'm the one who is flirting with her. Do

you understand what I'm saying?"

She immediately spat, "I knew something was going on between you two. How shameless!"

Christoff didn't hold back. He looked like the devil from hell as he stared at Stefanie with a vicious gaze.

"Don't let me hear you say one bad thing about her again, or I'll take action. I promise you it won't end

with just a minor scolding!"

He only looked away and turned to leave after seeing her frown and hesitate to speak under his fierce

gaze.

Olivia happened to be looking for Christoff when he caught up to her. Seeing him approach only now,

she couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so slow?"

Christoff replied with a smile, "I couldn't resist joining in when I saw you having a blast at chewing her

out."

"Why did you scold her?" Olivia's face fell. "She didn't do anything to you."

He looked at her and insisted, "But she bullied you!"

Olivia felt the corners of her mouth twitch at that. "The one she bullied was Jewel! You saw how I was

one-sidedly venting my anger on her."

"Uh-huh, but she still pissed you off."

Olivia was at a loss for words. "Enough, you. Can't you start acting like a normal human being?"

He chortled at that. "How is it that you are still upset even though I'm being nice?"

"I do have to thank you for tonight," she commented. "I was really worried earlier. I thought that

something happened to Jewel."

"No need to thank me. How about you treat me to a meal this time?" He rubbed his chin with his hand

as a mischievous smile appeared on his face.

Before Olivia could speak, Jewel quickly mediated by intervening, "I'll treat you both. You've been

worried because of me. I'll treat you to a meal someday."

Olivia looked at Christoff and smiled with satisfaction. "Sounds good to me."

Christoff, on the other hand, said nothing.

When the trio got off the elevator, the two men were still being held by the security guards.

Christoff turned to Olivia when he saw this. "What about them?"

"Send them to Alex," she ordered.

"Forget it." Jewel held onto her as she muttered, "Don't let him know. It is his mother we are talking

about. What is he supposed to do?"

"Hmph! Let him do whatever he wants."

"Forget it," Jewel urged. "Just let them go."

"Are you a pushover?" Olivia glared at Jewel, eliciting a chuckle from the latter.

The three of them then left the hotel.

"Thank you for today. You can go back now. Jewel and I will go home too," Olivia mentioned.

"Alright," the man replied.

Olivia and Jewel proceeded to hail a cab by the roadside.

When they got in the car, Olivia asked, "What did she say?"

"Not much, actually. You and Christoff got there before she said anything."

"She didn't say anything at all?"

"She did. She asked if I still remembered this hotel. She claimed that I did something with another man

in this hotel and betrayed Alex."

Olivia quickly became angry when she heard that. "You shouldn't listen to her. Regardless of whether

that incident was true or not, what right does she have to meddle when even Alex didn't care? Divorced

couples can marry each other again. It has been seven or eight years since then. Can't this matter be

put to rest? It is my first time meeting Alex's mother. She sure is unreasonable. How could she use

such a despicable method to bring you here? What was she thinking of doing if we hadn't come?!"
