Chapter 137: Eat With Me!
Olivia picked up one of the bags and left the room, leaving them confused.
She inhaled and exhaled as if all her energy was only utilized in breathing. Her legs felt like lead and her body suddenly felt too heavy. She did not have the strength to drag herself.
The maids were discreetly looking at her as she took steps toward the third floor where Damon lives now.
Olivia ignored them. Ignoging was an art she had learnt early in her life. Soft whispers, gossips in low voices, and insults! She had faced them a lot when her father died and her mother had to sell all their properties. When they have turned into servants from a noble in one night.
The situation did not scare but Damon did. She had thought they had come to a mutual understanding. She was even bold enough to believe that they have developed a bond! Something she could call friendship. But now she knew, it was only her illusion.
Damon must have felt wary of her knowledge. He must have entertained her until he completed his plan and now that he did not need her anymore. He did not need to act. She felt a strange burning sensation in her body just thinking about it. How she wanted to punch his gut for tricking her when she was offering sincerity.
She had chosen to help him instead of her sister with her knowledge. Not only did she want to save her life, but she also wanted a better future for him. But what had she gotten in exchange. Betrayal! Her throat burnt but she ignored that feel too as she stood in front of his study.
She took another deep breath to collect the courage. Courage to not attack him the moment she opens the door but to smile at him.
The door was opened after two knocks. She knew this man, his name was Theodore. He was there when Damon had questioned her about rations.
