Chapter 179
When Richard saw me, his eyes brightened, and he stepped forward to say hello, but Gai grabbed his arm to
stop him.
Alexander’s gaze zeroed in on my hand on Aiden’s. His eyes darkened as he met my gaze, and large veins in his
neck started to bulge.
The shostess that showed us to our table sat them in the table directly behind us.
Great.
| couldn’t help but notice Alexander glaring at Aiden as he handeda cool glass of water.
Swallowing, | shifted in my seat and tried to tear my eyes away from Alexander.
“The college boy seems to be making Olivia very happy,” Richard whispered to Gai, but it was still loud enough
that | could hear.
A warm flush spread across my body.
“He's very cute, isn’t he?” Gai whispered.
Alexander could hear them too, and his frown deepened. He tapped Richard with his menu and nodded at the
server standing at their table. “Order your drink, Richard.”
At this point, | was over the , and | just wanted to have a nice dinner.
| grabbed my water glass, but then almost dropped it when | saw who was walking with purpose across the
restaurant.
Naomi Wright looked like a model in a red dress and black heels as she made a beeline for Alexander's table. Her
sfriend from the elevator was trailing after her looking like she had just sucked on a lemon.
“Good evening, Mr. Green,” Naomi said when she was standing right in front of Alexander.

*Olivia*
| averted my eyes away from Naomi and told myself that this was none of my business. All | wanted to do was
enjoy my dinner and be good company for Ava’s brother, who had given up part of his spring break to help keep
us safe on this trip.
But even though | wasn’t watching Alexander and Naomi, that didn’t mean I still couldn’t hear them.
“Hello, Ms. Wright,” Alexander said so coldly that I couldn’t help but look up. “I'll have a bottle of your 1995
Chardonnay, please.”
| let out a quiet gasp. The last part Alexander had said to the waiter. | couldn't believe how dismissive Alexander
was to a woman who had been kind and gentle during their first date. And hadn't he traveled all this way to
spend twith Naomi? It didn’t make sense that he was treating her with such cold indifference.
Naomi and her friend shared a surprised glance and shifted uneasily on their high heels. | couldn’t help but

awkward scene unfold before me. It was like how you couldn't help looking at a car crash.
Naomi seemed to want to retreat. She tightly gripped her friend's arm and began to pull her away from
Alexander's table. But her friend shook her off. She lifted her chin and looked right at Alexander.
“Could we please sit down, Mr. Green?” she asked.
Alexander didn’t even look up from his menu to answer her. “That would be hard to do since there aren't any
seats left at our table.”
My mouth dropped open at his audacity. Then, he did something that sent an electric shock down my spine.
Alexander turned around and locked eyes with me.
For a moment, it was like we were
the only two people in the restaurant.

“If you need a place to sit, you could share a table with my secretary,” Alexander said and waved his hand at me
like I didn’t matter.
