Chapter 96: Perpetually Gloomy

The two were about to leave Olivia's decoy apartment to check the damages in her penthouse suite when Secretary Gail entered the premises. 

Olivia's brows knitted. She remembered telling her secretary last night that she'd be taking a day off too today, so why on earth is Secretary Gail reporting to work?

As if Secretary Gail could hear Olivia's thoughts, the former walked closer to the latter and whispered, "The Headmistress is outside and wants a word with you, President."

Bobbing her head, she told Secretary Gail, "I'll meet you and Headmistress in the office. Next time don't bring strangers in my space."

Secretary Gail nodded and bowed. She turned on her heel and left as quickly as she entered Olivia's apartment.

"Who's that?" Maxen inquired. He just got out of the bathroom when he heard the door's security lock alarm. Caging Olivia in his embrace, he listened as she spoke. 

"Gail. I have to meet my boss tonight for dinner." She took a sharp breath. "Your little project has to wait."
