Fated To Not Just One, But Three

Chapter 377

Chapter 377: The Act

Olivia’s POV

Frederick led me into his study and closed the door behind us with a loud snap. I could see he was still fuming with anger, and I just hoped he didn’t direct that anger at me. He stood by the desk, staring at me with eyes that felt heavy, while I glared at him, folding my arms tightly against my chest.

His smirk faded. "Careful, Olivia."
