When She Stops Playing Nice

Chapter 184
The woman seemed rather foolish to Olivia, she thought. “Alright, let’s be friends.”
However, the girl might have been considering the medical bills and felt embarrassed to ask directly, so she pretended to be magnanimous by saying they should be friends, making it easier to collect the money later.
Olivia speculated.
“Cathy!”
Andy!”
“I was so scared when you said you were in the hospital. I thought something had happened to you,” Andy Taylor exclaimed, glancing at Olivia beside Cathy.
Olivia’s face was pale, and she kept her head down, not uttering a word. Yet, Andy felt a sense of sympathy for her. “Who is she?”
Cathy introduced. “She is Olivia Miller, my friend. Olivia, this is Andy, my boyfriend,”
Olivia finally raised her head to look at Andy, just that one glance, and she felt that his gaze on her was somewhat off.
However, she didn’t pay much attention to it.
After seeing Olivia’s face, Andy couldn’t help but think to himself, Why didn’t I know that Cathy had such a beautiful friend?”
“I’ve never seen her be
Andy inquired.
“We’ve only just met,” Cathy said.
Andy seemed pensive. His friend was right. When pursuing a girl, it was always good to take a moment to observe. They never know, her friends might be
even more attractive.
“Is something wrong with Olivia? Did she get hit?”-
Cathy wasn’t quite sure and felt that since Olivia was unwilling to say, she should respect her wishes. After all, it was her personal privacy.

“Don’t ask too much.” Cathy pouted.
“Alright.” Andy agreed.
Andy’s gaze kept flickering toward Olivia.
Olivia grew increasingly impatient under his scrutiny. “I’ll take my leave first,” she said.
Cathy suggested it. “Let Andy give you a ride home. He has a car”
“No need.” Olivia declined and left directly, taking the 10 dollars Cathy had just given her to take a taxi home.
When she first came into possession of a billion dollars, she had been ready to buy a house, but after splurging on luxury items, the home purchase was postponed. She rented an apartment instead, and now, with no money, she had to move out. Fortunately, she still had the old, run-down place she had rented in the suburbs, which she had forgotten to cancel the lease on, so she could still stay there for a while.
As Olivia was nearing her home, she felt something amiss behind her, as if someone was following her.

Her heart leaped into her throat instantly.
Could it be the driver of the taxi she had taken earlier, tailing her?
She quickened her pace in fear, hurried up the stairs, and as she opened the door to her place, she was about to close it when someone suddenly lunged forward, preventing her from shutting the door.
Olivia was startled her body bristling with fear, ready to scream, but the man said, “Calm down. I won’t hurt you.”
Olivia was taken aback by his foreign accent and momentarily forgot to cry for help. The man’s face was masked, and he had blond hair.
Despite the man’s assurance, Olivia did not let her guard down and pressed against the door firmly.
“Try telling you. The acoustics here are really bad. If you try anything and I yell, the neighbors will hear and find out something’s wrong here. You won’t pet away with it!” Olivia wamed.
The blond man was speechless. “I’m not interested in you. I came to see you because I want to talk about something”
Olivia was terrified.
“What could we possibly have to talk about? I don’t even know you!” she said.
The blond man suddenly chuckled lightly and said, “You don’t know me, but I know your father. Your father, Cole Yale, was one of my good partners.”
Olivia was thoroughly confused as the blond man continued, “And I know you’re in dire need of money right now, and you’re quite eager to get rid of Gina, Perhaps. I can help you with that? Eliminate Gina for you, perhaps?”
Olivia’s eyes widened in surprise, and she became curious about the man’s identity. “You… You’re not a hitman, are you? How much do you charge? Can you ensure you’ll kill Gina? She’s quite skilled…”
The blond man chuckled. “A hitman? You could say that, but I’m not the type who’s hired to kill people.”
“What do you mean?”
“Let me come in, and we can talk this through.”
Olivia was still apprehensive.
“if it makes you feel safer, you can arm yourself”
Olivia first closed the door, grabbed a fruit knife, and then opened it to let the blond man in, pointing the tip at him.
The blond man calmly sat down on the sofa. “It’s a pity. If you had grown up by Cole’s side, you wouldn’t be trembling so much holding this knife. You should know that if I really wanted to do something to you, you wouldn’t stand a chance against me.”
Olivia had to admit, despite the man’s unimposing physique, that she was no match for him, especially after being beaten up by Ethan just recently.
“Who exactly are you?” Olivia asked, on the verge of a breakdown from the tension.
“I could be considered a colleague of your father’s”
