Olivine frowned. She knew what Evander was thinking, and dissatisfaction flashed across her eyes.

Just when she thought Evander was not going to speak, his mild voice sounded.

“Mm.” He then turned around indifferently.

It only took a second for Olivine to retract all traces of suspicion from her expression.

She poured a cup of coffee, stood up from the couch, and limped toward Evander.

“Floretta is only a little girl, Evander. and shouldn't be blamed for being a little reckless. You shouldn't have been that stem with her,” she said with a benevolent smile.

Evander wore a scowl as if her trick did not work on him. He studied her expression carefully.

Olivine began to feel guilty about the way he was scrutinizing her. “Is there a stain on my face. Evander? Don't look at me like that. Here, have some coffee.”

“There's no one else here. Olivine. You can drop your act,” Evander sneered. With his domineering aura, he looked as if he had become another person.

Olivine's hand holding the coffee cup shivered slightly, and a look of hurt appeared on her face.
