I’m Someone Else

Chapter 146

A sweet smile curled Olivia’s lip. She was delighted that Thomas agreed to go with her. Ooh, ashopping date, huh? This is delightful.

At the same time, Harrison was at his residence, looking at Ophelie solemnly. “Are you sure you’re notmaking this up?”

Ophelie nodded. “I would never joke about something like this.”

Harrison inhaled sharply. If that’s the case, then this is bad. “You might be reading into it too much,Ophelie,” he said, hoping that Ophelie was just reading too much into it.

Ophelie shook her head. Confidently, she said, “No. I grew up with her, and I know her very well. I amvery sure that she’s fallen for Thomas, and it’s very obvious. Everyone can see that, not just me.”

A frown furrowed Harrison’s brow. This is bad. Olivia can’t get into a relationship. She still carries thefuture of the Pearson Family on her back. She and Thomas are still young. If one thing leads to anotherand she loses her innocence, it’s going to be a disaster. The whole city’s going to be plunged intoturmoil.

Ophelie pouted. “Well, I guess her love is unrequited though. Thomas doesn’t realize Olivia likes him.He’s denser than a brick. She made it obvious enough, but he wouldn’t even respond to her.” Opheliedidn’t like that part about Thomas. Are you an idiot, Thomas? How can you even miss that many hints?

Harrison didn’t care about that. All he could think of was that Olivia had fallen for someone. If they stayinnocent, then all is fine, but if they have crossed the line, the families will hunt her down. I need to talkto Thomas. Olivia doesn’t have much time left. If she crosses the line, she’s going to die even faster.The families are not to be trifled with. I don’t want her to be punished.

Noticing her grandfather’s silence, Ophelie asked, “Are you alright, Grandpa? You don’t look toohappy.” He should be happy that Olivia’s finally found someone she likes, but why does he look so…dejected?

Harrison snapped out of it and waved his hand. “I’m alright.”

Ophelie stood up and went to the bathroom, tossing the conversation aside.

Harrison plopped down on the couch and closed his eyes. He had no idea who was backing Thomas,but judging from what he saw at the hospital, Thomas was more than what met the eye. Even Quincyhad nothing but respect for him. Only powerful men can gain Quincy’s respect. Not even the Denverswould cross Quincy if possible. Even Rafael, who was even more mysterious than Quincy, bowed toThomas.

Harrison then told his men to replace out Thomas’ number. The Denvers were powerful enough to replaceanyone’s number in this city. A while later, his men came back with Thomas’ number, and Harrisonmade a call right away. “Hello, Mr. Clifford. I’m Harrison Denver, Olivia’s grandfather. I believe we’vemet.”

Thomas was on the couch, watching TV with Olivia after dinner. He knew Harrison. Back at thehospital, Thomas wasn’t exactly polite to him, and Thomas had seen him once when he sent Olivia tothe Denver Residence. Why is Harrison calling me?

“I need to talk to you, Mr. Clifford. Can we meet up?” Harrison cut to the chase. The matter about Oliviawas important, and he wanted to talk face-to-face.

Thomas frowned. “I don’t know you very well. If you have something to talk about, you can speak rightnow.”

“Mr. Clifford, what I wish to talk about is her role. I think you know the special role she plays, don’t you?We should meet and talk about this.” Harrison was sure Thomas knew Olivia was a sacrifice. It was nosecret in this city’s upper society. Quincy knew it all, and he must’ve told Thomas about it, seeing thatThomas was close to him and that Thomas was protective of Olivia.

“Hm?” Thomas was surprised. What? That came out of nowhere. This thing should have nothing to dowith the Denvers. Are they one of the Six Greatest Families? Thomas didn’t know much about the so-called greatest families. Quincy had told him that the Pearsons and Xalmars were part of this circle.Thomas had no idea which other families were on the list, nor was he interested. “Very well. When doyou wish to meet?”

“Can we meet up now?” Harrison was in a rut, and he wanted to clear things up with Thomas as soonas possible.

“No,” Thomas refused without even thinking. It was late, and a lot of people were targeting Olivia. Hecouldn’t possibly leave her here alone. If someone came to attack her while he was gone, it would bedisastrous.

Harrison was a little speechless. Everyone in this city respected him, given his position, but notThomas. Thomas was rude to him at the hospital, and now he rejected the proposition to meet upwithout a second of hesitation. He really doesn’t respect me, does he? However, Harrison couldn’t doanything about it. Even Quincy and Rafael respected him, not to mention he defeated Terrence andNorman like they were nothing. Harrison wouldn’t cross this guy if possible. “So, what time would befine for you?”

“10.00AM. Tomorrow.”

“Very well. Let’s meet at Shangri La.”

Thomas hung up, and Olivia asked, “You’re going out tomorrow?”

“Yes.” Thomas nodded.

Olivia wondered why. She had a feeling Thomas was getting more and more mysterious.
