As Olivia reached the entrance of the JN Jewelry store, he suddenly stopped. When Alexander caught up to her,
she reached out her hand and naturally looped her arm around his. Alexander glanced down at her, noting how
easily she clung to him, as if the aloofness he’d shown earlier was entirely forgotten.
“Honey, you need to helppick something nice today,” Olivia said with a sweet smile, looking every bit like a
woman lost in her own happiness.
Alexander raised an eyebrow slightly. If she’s not acting, he’s wasting an incredible talent.
Inside the store, Georgina was busy reviewing sof her latest designs, with her staff standing respectfully
behind her.
“Welcome.
Hearing the greeting, Georgina glanced toward the door, noting a new customer had arrived. Running this store

Normally, she didn’t even visit the store often, only showing up for quarterly check-ins like today.
“Ms. Georgina, what a pleasant coincidence to see you here today,” said a familiar voice.
Georgina turned quickly to see Olivia entering, arm-in-arm with Alexander. The sight immediately darkened her
expression. Why are they here together? Olivia's close interaction with Alexander made Georgina’s chest tighten.
How is this possible? Alexander has always kept his distance from her, why is he now letting her act so intimate?
“Alex, Ms. Carter, what brings you two here today?” Georgina asked, forcing a smile as she pushed down the
sourness welling up in her chest.
Her gaze lingered on Alexander, as handsand godlike as ever, a man she couldn't help but yearn for. Yet
Olivia's presence beside him was a cruel reminder that this man was out of her reach. Jealousy burned within
her.
“Didn’t we say we'd cto support Ms. Georgina’s business? So here we are! | didn’t expect to find you. here
today as well,” Olivia said brightly, her smile unwavering. Of course, Olivia knew this was the exact day Georgina
always visited her store.
Georgina forced another smile. “Ms. Carter, you're too thoughtful. As it happens, I've just finished designing
snew pieces. Feel free to take a look.”
Olivia didn’t hesitate and began browsing the store with Alexander at her side.
The sight of them moving so closely together was like a slap to Georgina’s face. She clenched her teeth,
struggling to maintain her composure. Something abour Olivia’s sudden appearance today felt deliberate, but
Georgina couldn't decide if Olivia was truly capable of scheming at this level.
Ms. Carter, if you find anything you like here, you're welcto visit anytime. Alex is always so busy with work,
perhaps it would be better for him to rest more whenever possible, Georgina said, her gaze shifting to Olivia,
who clung tightly to Alexander.
She added, “Ms. Carter, since I've known Alex since we were kids, | couldnt help but say this. | hope you don’t
take offense.

Olivia turned to look at her, expression calm. “I understand. Actually, | feel the bad for him. But today, when he
