Chapter 284 Jacob greeted Linda as soon as she cinto his office, “Hello, Ms. Linda.” Linda smiled at him, handing over a document. “Great job on the farm project. Mr. Tyler is really pleased, so you might need to go on a trip in a few days.” She gave him another paper. “Here's the plan to change Barva Village into a place tourists will want to visit. Take a look.” Jacob felt like he knew the nBarva Village. After thinking hard, it hit him-it was Olivia's hometown! He quickly looked over the document. It didn’t take him long to figure out what was going on. He looked up at Linda.
“This project is special because of Mrs. Harris. We're counting on you to see it through.” Jacob held the document tightly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLinda saw his reaction but didn’t say anything. She waited for him to respond.
He snapped back to his senses and said, “Sure, I'll do it well.” “Okay.” Linda smiled and left his office right away.
Jacob looked at the document again, his grip so tight his knuckles turned white. He threw it on the floor.
The moment the document scattered on the floor, he stared at it, his eyes bloodshot, and laughed bitterly. He couldn’t believe he'd be working on something for Olivia, especially a project her husband had gifted her.
Olivia had married into a prestigious family. She was living a whole new life, even expecting a baby.
They say, “People depend on their children’s success.” Tyler's actions showed he really believed this about Olivia.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhat would Jacob call her when they met again? The honorable Mrs. Harris? He was smiling, but his eyes were anything but warm.
After leaving school, Olivia got into the car.
284 Tyler was still at the club when his phone rang. It was Nina, saying Olivia had left school. He was always worried about Olivia being out by herself, so Nina was with her and would keep him updated.
Tyler watched the car drive away from the school. “Okay, take her for a drive,” he told Nina over the phone.
“Will do, sir.” Tyler didn’t turn around until the car had disappeared from view. Right then, a friend approached him. “I heard Harris Group donated more money to the university nearby. | was wondering why they have a soft spot for that school, and now I see it's because your wife studies there.” Tyler slid his phone into his pocket and replied casually, “It’s just a coincidence.” But really, it was clear to everyone that it wasn't just a coincidence.
Dylan joined in with a smirk. “Con, the school’s been doing so much better since your company’s donation.
It's pretty well-known that the roads around the school were a mess. Cars were everywhere, making it dangerous even to walk, and accidents were common. It makes you wonder if your donation was just to help out the school or maybe for someone special who goes there.” Dylan would never let go of the chance to tease Tyler a little, especially when it cto any news about Olivia.
