Chapter 82 Always Working an Angle

• “You are too polite. Fine—I’ll accept your kindness since you’ve brought over the porridge for me. You don’t have to hover anymore. I’ll have the porridge later, but you should head home now because the kids are still at home.”
• Otis was just trying to be polite, but he regretted it the moment blurted out the last part where he said ‘the kids are still at home’. It suddenly occurred to him that Alice had left Olivia, hence the former couldn’t possibly be at home. Do I sound like I am hinting at something?
• Olivia seemed hesitant when she heard that. Initially, she did not know how to react but when she snapped back to her senses, she flashed him a smile, as though she was very pleased with herself.
