Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss! -
Chapter 1297 Repeat the Same Mistakes
"The James Group's toast. Tristan's MIA, and Ms. James can't do much," the attendant whispered. "Why are you so scared of her and showing her all this respect?"
"You just don't get it," Olivia said with a smirk. "I always thought the James Group's fall was just a blip. When Tristan comes back, they'll be on top again. So, we can't disrespect anyone from the James family. Plus, Ms. James is Mr. Clemens' ex and the mother of his three kids. That alone means I gotta show her respect. Even if we're rivals, we gotta play fair so there's no bad blood later."
"Got it," the attendant nodded eagerly. "You're really sharp."
Olivia walked over to the big window and frowned when she spotted Sadie's car.
"Ms. Graham, that's Mr. Clemens' car," the attendant pointed out.
Olivia's face turned serious, her eyes filled with mixed emotions. She muttered, "Looks like they're still pretty tight."
"Ms. James, are we heading straight back to Boston?" Annika asked, starting the car and pulling away.
"Yeah." Sadie glanced at the towering Clemens Group building across the street, memories flooding back. The lights on the 68th floor were still on; was he still working?
As she was lost in thought, Annika suddenly exclaimed, "That's Mr. Clemens' car."
Sadie looked up at the rearview mirror. Sure enough, Micah's Rolls-Royce Phantom was pulling out of the Clemens Group parking lot and stopping right under Urban Delights across the street.
By then, Olivia had already rushed out with her bodyguards. Micah got out and walked into the restaurant with her.
From behind, they looked really close.
"Is Olivia doing this on purpose?" Annika grumbled.
"Just drive." Sadie's tone was cool, but inside, she was a mess. If Olivia was playing games, she wouldn't care. But Olivia's bold and confident attitude made her uneasy. Like Olivia said, she had the skills and confidence and didn't need to play games.
And a woman like Olivia was exactly Micah's type.
"Ms. James, did Olivia mean something else with her words earlier?" Annika couldn't help but ask. "She said she came to ask about the gym project, but she really meant Mr. Clemens, right?"
"You figured it out?" Sadie pretended to be indifferent, smiling. "You're sharp. If it were Arya, she wouldn't have noticed."
"Do you really not care?" Annika frowned at her. "No one's stopping you two now. You've broken off your engagement with Joe, and you have three kids. Why not think about getting back together? I think Mr. Clemens still has feelings for you."
"What's gotten into you?" Sadie looked at her, annoyed. "If Arya said this, I'd get it, but you know me best. How can you talk such nonsense?"
"Because I know you, I'm worried," Annika said boldly. "I know you and Mr. Clemens have never really let go of each other. It's like fate keeps messing with you two. There were issues before, but now those grudges are gone. The revenge is done. I don't get why you can't make up. Is pride that important?"
"It's not about pride," Sadie said instinctively, but she also wondered, 'What is it?' She couldn't quite put her finger on it.
There used to be hatred and family grudges, but now, like Annika said, the revenge was done, and the family wasn't interfering anymore. There didn't seem to be any big obstacles between them.
But she still couldn't bring herself to reconcile with Micah. She was scared of making the same mistakes and didn't want to go through that heartache again.
