Chapter 231 My Billionaire Missing Lover
- Gillian returned to her room next door in a daze. Ernesto was on the phone. When he turned around and saw Gillian, he hung up and said, “Something happened in Fesmuowana. I have to go over it and will only return in about two weeks. Do you want to stay here?” Gillian pondered for a moment and shook her head. “I’m going back to Mala.” Ernesto raised his eyebrows quizzically. Gillian explained, “Olivia has only been here for a short while. She has yet to experience the power of favoritism. Let her stay with her biased parents for a while first. Gradually, she will crumble under the weight of the bias she faces.” Olivia was almost done making sandwiches.
- She had suggested to her parents that she wanted to start a business in town. Megan rejected her suggestion immediately. “Don’t you need capital to start a business? You don’t have any capital. We have used all our money to support Doris‘ studies. Doris will take her graduate entry test next year. We have to set aside money for that.” Olivia did not become angry after her mother rejected her. Instead, she explained gently, “Mom, I don’t need a lot of capital. Isn’t Derek running a barbecue business in town? I can stay at Derek’s place and use his kitchen.
- After making sandwiches, I can sell them on a food truck.” As Olivia said this, she held Megan’s hand. The sudden holding of Megan's hand made her feel slightly uneasy. She subconsciously wanted to pull her hand back. Olivia’s hands were warm and slightly calloused. Her grip on Megan’s hand was gentle and delicate, as if she were caressing some precious treasure. Megan could even sense that Olivia trusted and respected her. Megan’s heart softened. She looked away but did not pull back her hand. Olivia tilted her head and carefully sized up Megan’s slightly white sideburns.
