Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss! -
Chapter 1298 A Good Place
"If Olivia's really with Mr. Clemens, won't you be bummed?" Annika asked, a bit hesitant. "I mean, Olivia's pretty impressive!" "Yeah, compared to the Lingston sisters, she's way more talented," Sadie said with a faint smile. "Plus, Micah really digs her personality."
"Aren't you worried?" Annika got anxious. "If they end up together, Noah, Nathan, and Mia will have a stepmom. What if she's like Ella, all sweet on the outside but nasty inside? What if she hurts the kids?"
"I doubt it," Sadie said confidently. "I don't think she's that type."
"Well, we didn't see Ella's true colors until it was too late," Annika said softly.
"After everything, Micah should be better at judging people," Sadie said, pretty chill. "He never had feelings for Ella; she was pushed on him by Raymond. Now, without Raymond meddling, he can choose freely. If he likes Olivia, I can't stop him."
Annika still felt uneasy but didn't say more.
Sadie looked out at the familiar streets, feeling all sorts of emotions. After all these years, seeing these places again brought back memories of Micah. Those moments were still so clear in her mind, but she could only keep them there. "I just saw Ms. James's car," Andrew whispered to Micah.
Micah didn't react. He sat there, looked up at Olivia, and smiled. "Welcome to Newark!"
"Thanks, Mr. Clemens!" Olivia said, shifting from obedient to Sadie to charming and gentle, her eyes sparkling.
"Have you been waiting here all day?" Micah asked, noticing the two sets of tea utensils on the coffee table. He guessed Sadie had been there earlier.
"Sort of, but not really," Olivia smiled. "I just entertained a friend you know, Ms. James, the second-largest shareholder of the James Group!"
Her honesty caught Micah off guard. He looked at her and asked, "What did you see her for?"
"This project..." Olivia pulled out a document. "Duke Louis contacted me through Clarence, wanting me to replace Ms. James's shares. I was worried it might cause misunderstandings, so I came to ask her." "What did she say?" Micah asked, looking deeply at Olivia.
"She said it was annoying for Duke Louis to replace a replacement before she even withdrew," Olivia smiled. "She also said that in business, fair competition is the way to go, and everyone should accept the outcome. If anyone plays dirty, she won't be polite."
"That sounds like her," Micah remarked, his gaze softening towards Olivia.
"Ms. James is straightforward, and I admire that," Olivia said with a smile. "Did you run into her downstairs?"
"No," Micah swirled his wine glass, wondering if Sadie had seen him when she left. If she did, she should know he came to see Olivia. Did she react? "Drinking here is no fun," Olivia noticed Micah's mind wasn't on her and quickly changed tactics. "Mr. Clemens, how about I take you to a cool spot?"
"Is there a place in Newark I don't know about?" Micah's curiosity was piqued.
"You definitely haven't been there," Olivia said mysteriously. "And I guarantee you'll like it."
"Then I have to check it out." Micah said, putting down his wine glass and gesturing. Andrew immediately went to get the car ready.
