Chapter 81 I'd Rather Jump Than Accept Your Help
As soon as Olivia realized Vance was behind tonight's mess, she immediately called him.
“Vance, what the heck did you do this time? What was in that soup?”
On the other end, Vance’s voice oozed with pride.
Finished
“I told you tonight would work out perfectly! That soup’s recipe was specially sourced-it’s practically magical.
Even a monk would lose his composure.”
Olivia was speechless with rage.
“Why didn’t you tellearlier?”
Vance replied nonchalantly, “Relax! It doesn’t matter who drinks it. Just take the opportunity tonight to give the
Wilson family a healthy baby boy. Trust me, once my brother's hooked, he'll be completely loyal to you.”
Olivia wanted to reach through the phone and strangle him.
Sabotage is one thing, but this is next-level betrayal!
Fuming, she hung up and stood by the cold air vent, taking deep breaths to suppress the strange heat coursing
through her body. But her face only grew redder, her heart raced faster, and her drifting toward Alexander.
It felt like she could even smell the faint, tantalizing scent of his cologne.
Terrified she might lose control, Olivia quickly shut her eyes, pretending he wasn’t there.
But then...
A sudden warmth crept up behind her.
Olivia instinctively opened her eyes and froze.

In front of her was Alexander's strong, well-defined arm
eyes kept
At spoint, Alexander had moved behind her. His burning chest was nearly pressed against her back, and the
thin layer of clothing between them did little to block the heat radiating from his skin.
The warmth nearly made Olivia's mind short-circuit. She stood there rigid, not daring to move a muscle..
As if unaware of how close they were, Alexander casually reached forward to grab a glass of water from the table
in front of her.
The movement caused his chest to brush against her back.
Olivia forgot how to breathe. Every fiber of her being screamed at her to turn around and wrap herself around his
perfect physique.
“Want swater?” Alexander's voice was calm, as though he hadn't noticed the faint trembling of Olivia's
shoulders. Instead of stepping away after picking up the glass, he held it out toward her.

She didn’t want water-she just wanted him to back off
Alexander noticed her obvious discomfort, and a flicker of something unspoken flashed in his eyes.
Finished
The Olivia he knew from before wouldn't have needed any excuse like soup or drugs. She'd always found. ways
to cling to him on her own.
But now...
Alexander was almost certain Olivia genuinely had no ulterior motives toward him.
“Can you just step back?” Olivia took a deep breath and turned, shoving Alexander away.
Does he even realize his actions are like a walking temptation forto commit a crime?
Alexander raised an eyebrow, watching as Olivia's breathing grew shallow and erratic.
“You really don’t want my help?” he asked, his tone teasing.
Olivia couldn't take it anymore.

Down below, Liam was lounging in the garden with Vance, casually sipping tea.
Hearing the commotion from above, Liam looked up and spotted Olivia on the balcony.
