Chapter 30 The New Replacement

Olivia’s face darkened, her voice sharp as anger surged within her. But she couldn’t afford to offend the Holdens. Without Natalie introducing her, she probably would have never met Charles and Marcus.

Still, no matter how wealthy or powerful they were, they had no right to treat Natalie like this and suggest she be a mistress. Only people who were completely out of touch would say that.

All the admiration and attraction Olivia had felt for Marcus disappeared in an instant. Her anger bubbled up inside, but she knew she couldn’t make a scene with Charles, especially given his age and status. Even though she was angry, she held herself back.

“Mr. Holden Senior, is there anything else? If not, I’ll go look for Natalie,” Olivia said, keeping her tone steady.

She took a deep breath, forcing herself to stay calm. She needed to tell Natalie about this as soon as possible.

Charles had clearly called her away to give Natalie and Marcus some alone time, obviously trying to play matchmaker. If Marcus were single, Olivia might have thought it was perfect) but he had a fiancée.

Flirting with other women while he was engaged was a betrayal–not just to the relationship, but to his fiancée. A man who couldn’t be faithful wasn’t worth it.

An unfaithful man was like spoiled milk. There was no point in keeping him around.

Charles stared at Olivia. Just a moment ago, this girl had been all smiles, but now her face wast stormy. The change in her attitude was so sudden. Natalie’s good friend seemed to be filled with a strong sense of justice.

Before Charles could say more, Olivia had already started drawing a line, clearly bothered by the fact that Marcus had a fiancée.

“Young lady, my grandson, and his fiancée-” Charles began, trying to explain.

“Mr. Holden Senior, I’m leaving,” Olivia interrupted, cutting him off.

Olivia didn’t want to listen to him anymore. She let go of Charles’s arm and glanced around. Upon spotting Marcus standing nearby, she waved him over.

“Mr. Holden, could you come here for a moment?” she called.

Marcus, who had been watching closely, quickly joined them.

“Mr. Holden, I’ll leave Mr. Holden Senior with you. I need to look for Natalie,” Olivia said politely, hiding her annoyance. Without waiting for a response, she turned and walked away.

Charles was left speechless. The girl had cut him off! It was clearly rude, but for some reason,
