Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 1318 Strange Relationship

Joe took Sadie to their old spot, that seaside restaurant where they had so many memories. The place was still as charming as ever, with twinkling lights reflecting off the water, but Sadie couldn't enjoy it. She felt nothing but deep exhaustion. Sitting across from Joe, she struggled to replace the right words. How much longer could she keep trying to mend his heart?

Joe, desperate, reached across the table, his eyes pleading. "Sadie, are you still upset about Barbara? My mom sent her away. She's out of our lives, I swear."

"It's not about that," Sadie said, tired. "Whether Barbara's around or not, we can't be together."

"Why?" Joe looked at her, shocked. "Is it because of Micah?"

"It's not about him either," Sadie said, guilt in her eyes. "Joe, it's my fault you're like this. I should've just said no from the start and kept us as friends. Maybe you'd be happy by now."

But Joe wasn't ready to hear it. "My happiness is you, Sadie. No one else."

"Joe..." Sadie started, but a voice outside interrupted, grabbing their attention.

"Mr. Clemens, what a surprise to see you here," the manager said.

"Ms. Graham!" he addressed the woman beside Micah. "Is everything I asked you to prepare ready?" Olivia asked.

"Yes, but..." The manager glanced uncomfortably at the table by the window. "Those patrons are also VIPs; we didn't refuse them."

Following the manager's gaze, Olivia and Micah spotted Sadie and Joe. All four of them stared, shocked by the unexpected encounter.

Joe's grip on his knife and fork tightened until his knuckles turned white, his ice-blue eyes burning with anger as he saw Micah.

Sadie's heart clenched seeing Micah with Olivia. If their last encounter had been planned, this felt like a cruel twist of fate. She and Joe had come here on a whim, but Olivia and Micah's presence hinted at something planned. They were on a date, after all.

Trying to hide her turmoil, she looked away, tightening her grip on her wine glass.

Micah's expression darkened seeing Sadie with Joe. Anger flared within him.

"It's okay; they're friends," Olivia said to the manager, then greeted Sadie, "Ms. James, what a coincidence!"

The two of them walked toward Sadie, with Micah casually wrapping his arm around Olivia's waist, a very intimate gesture that even surprised Olivia.

Sadie forced a smile and stood to shake Olivia's hand. Seeing Micah's arm around Olivia stung, but she hid her pain.

Joe, initially fuming, now looked lost. He glanced between Olivia and Micah, confusion all over his face.

"Joe, remember me?" Olivia asked with a smile.

Joe shook his head slightly. "And you are?"

"Olivia Graham. We've met at events, but maybe you don't recall," she said cheerfully. "Quite the coincidence running into you here!" "Right," Joe nodded, still reeling. "You two..."

"We're here for dinner, too," Olivia said with a smile. "We won't disturb you."

"Okay," Joe nodded politely.

Then, Olivia led Micah to a nearby table.

Throughout the entire time, Micah didn't say a word, just silently accompanying Olivia, looking very cold.
