Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 1319 Cleanse Your Heart

"Wh-what's happening?" Joe whispered to Sadie, glancing nervously at the nearby table. "Why is Micah with Olivia? They..."

He trailed off, noticing the look in Sadie's eyes. Despite her composed demeanor in front of Micah and Olivia, the sense of loss was now written all over her face.

Sadie was mechanically cutting her steak, almost shredding it, but she hadn't taken a single bite. Joe's brow furrowed deeply; he always paid close attention to the subtle shifts in her mood. He could read her like a book, which only made it harder to deceive himself about her true feelings.

However, seeing that Micah already had Olivia by his side, Joe was still quite happy, as it meant he still had a chance.

"Sadie, have mine," he said gently, swapping his neatly cut steak with her shredded one. "Your stomach isn't good; you need to eat well. Start with some soup."

"Thanks," Sadie responded absentmindedly.

At the nearby table, Micah saw everything, a fire of anger burning in his heart.

"Joe is really considerate towards Ms. James," Olivia said softly.

Micah didn't respond and continued sipping his wine.

"You should drink less," Olivia gently reminded him. "Have some tea instead."

With that, Olivia asked the restaurant manager to prepare a tea set.

Micah didn't refuse; he just quietly watched her, as if admiring her actions. Seeing Micah's gentle demeanor, Sadie felt even more furious inside.

"Ah!" Olivia suddenly exclaimed, spilling water on her hand.

"What happened?" Micah stood up, grabbing her hand to inspect the damage. "Let me see." Sadie couldn't bear any more of this scene. She put down her utensils and rose from the table.

"Sadie, where are you going?" Joe asked, his voice tinged with concern.

"Restroom," she replied curtly. Even though she desperately wanted to leave, doing so would only make her appear petty and vulnerable. She had been the one to insist on breaking up with Micah and maintaining distance. Now that he seemed happy with Olivia, she should be pleased for him, not miserable.

When Sadie came out of the restroom, she found Olivia at the sink, running cold water over her scalded hand. Seeing Sadie come out, Olivia smiled at her through the mirror.

Sadie also lifted the corners of her mouth, showing a polite smile as she washed her hands beside her.

The two stood side by side, seemingly harmonious, but both had complex thoughts swirling in their minds.

"How is it? Are you okay?" A familiar, gentle voice filled the air as Micah entered. Both women looked up simultaneously.

Micah didn't even glance at Sadie; his concern was solely for Olivia. "I'm fine," Olivia assured him with a smile.

Micah walked over, holding her hand and examining it carefully. He said, "It's not serious, but you should still apply some ointment to avoid scarring."

"Okay, I'll put some on tonight," Olivia said gently.

"I've called Dahlia over," Micah said seriously. "You should apply the ointment now."

"Huh?" Olivia was flattered. "It's just a minor injury. Why did you call Dr. Rey?"

"Go on," Micah insisted, his touch firm but gentle on the back of her hand. "I'll come over in a bit."

"Okay," Olivia said softly, giving Sadie a polite nod before leaving.

Sadie kept her head down, scrubbing her hands with unnecessary vigor, as if trying to wash away more than just water. Her fingers were starting to turn red from the rough treatment. "You shouldn't be scrubbing your hands so hard," Micah said, his voice suddenly cold and cutting through the silence. "You should be cleansing your heart."
