Beside them, Olive finally had enough and snapped at Vicky, "Why are you meddling? Mr. Sorano is
just taking his employee. Why would you want to catch this heat? Are you going to drag us into a fight
against the Soranos?!"
Ivana and the rest could only stay in their seats awkwardly.
Olive was right that they would never dare challenge the Soranos, which was why they never said
anything from the start.
Hubert chuckled in turn as he turned to Olive. "Oh, at least this pretty face knows her place. What's
your name?"
"I'm Olive Perkins," she replied excitedly.
"Haha! Good, you've got style." Hubert chuckled, rubbing his chin. "Would you sign up with Sorano

Olive was delighted. "Thank you, Mr. Sorano!"
"Here's my card. I'm staying in Room 1008—come over later so I can give you an audition." Hubert

"Vicky..." Kiki was at once emotional.
"What, you think I wouldn't dare?" Hubert snorted, glancing at his men and snapping his fingers. "Go.

could see Hubert's bodyguards advancing on her.
Instead, he remained in his seat and kept eating!
