Chapter 241 Rejected

"Alright. Let's go for a walk," Natalie said, standing up. "Olivia, wait here for me."

She added, "Mr. Holden, would you like to join us?"

Emma was stunned-Olivia had brought up the one thing she didn't want to hear. "I'm not feeling well, so I'm going back to my room to rest," she said, standing up quickly and leaving the living room to return to her room.

Olivia sneered. What was Emma playing at, acting innocent? She had seen that resentful look in Emma's eyes last night.
