Chapter 557
Brayden went to the Oliver Restaurant, ordered food and sat on the sofa to wait.
He then continued to search for information on his cell phone.
He had something to do, and he had to do it successfully.
Time ticked by and the packed food was delivered to Brayden. Brayden took it. "Thank you."
He then left the restaurant.
After getting in the car, Brayden dialed Kelly's number. "Kelly, arrange the following work."
"God, are you serious?"
"Well, it can't be too dense. Put it just like before."
"No problem!"
"Let me know when it's arranged."
"Okay!"
Brayden started the car and quickly left the restaurant.
Olivia and Grace were busy working in the AK Company.
Olivia, who had entered the working state, had ignored everything else. She would not think of anything unrelated to her work. Unknowingly, Brayden came here.
Brayden looked at the two people sitting before the desk and walked over with a smile.
"Eat before you work."
Grace then immediately turned around and quickly greeted, "Brother-in-law!"
Olivia also turned to look at Brayden.
The moment Brayden spoke, she was stunned. She did not expect him to come. Soon, she did not expect him to disappear.
It was strange that he didn't come.
Brayden said, "Let's go to the tea room."
He looked at Olivia gently.
Brayden was always gentle when he was with Olivia.
"Okay."
When they went to the tea room, Grace was as lively as ever, like a monkey.
Because of her presence, the atmosphere was very lively.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Olivia kept smiling, but Brayden looked into Olivia's eyes. He felt that there was something wrong with her.
Olivia saw Brayden looking at her. She touched her face. "What's wrong? Something on my face?" Brayden's eyes moved. "Yeah."
Then he reached out and caressed Olivia's face.
Olivia immediately looked at his hand. "Is it rice?"
Grace puffed and spat out the rice in her mouth.
Olivia was stunned.
What was wrong?
Taking the tissue to Grace, Grace quickly covered her mouth and said, "You go on."
Then she ran away.
Olivia was confused.
Brayden looked at Olivia whose look was no different from before.
But why did he feel that she was different from usual?
"How's your work today?" Brayden asked.
Olivia paused slightly, then took a glass of water to drink and said, "Not bad."
Brayden looked into Olivia's eyes. She didn't look him in the eye. There was something else in her eyes.
What did she hide from him?
Brayden took Olivia's hand. "Olivia."
Olivia paused and looked at Brayden. "Hmm?"
She looked the same as usual, but Brayden said, "If there's anything you can tell me, don't take it on yourself. It'll be tiring." Olivia stopped talking.
Brayden could tell that there was something wrong with her as he had known her for so many years.
And she was not a good liar.
"Brayden, I'm fine. Don't worry."
How could she tell him about what happened today?
She was not capable of doing so, nor could she.
She didn't want him to worry.
Brayden looked at Olivia's downcast eyelashes and clenched her hand. "Okay, as long as you're fine."
He didn't force her.
He wouldn't force her to do anything she didn't want to do.
After they finished dinner, Olivia and Grace continued to work while Brayden stayed at the Design Department, holding his cell phone to check the information.
He waited for Olivia to return with him.
It was almost ten o'clock. Olivia and Grace finished their work. On the contrary, Brayden was sitting in a chair with his phone in his hand and he was seriously looking at something. Grace said, "Olivia, brother-in-law is busier than us."
Olivia saw that he was very busy.
Although he accompanied her every day, Olivia knew that he was doing his own thing.
"You go back first."
"Mmm!"
Grace turned and left, but Olivia suddenly thought of something and said, "Wait."
"Hmm?"
"Wait a minute. We'll send you home."
It's too late. It's not safe for Grace to go back alone.
Olivia called for Brayden. "Brayden."
As soon as she called, Grace said, "Olivia, no need. I'll go back myself."
She ran away.
"Hey!"
Olivia couldn't hold Grace back even if she wanted to.
Olivia was helpless.
"Let's go. Let's see Grace off."
Brayden's voice fell into her ear and her hand was held.
Olivia looked up in surprise. "Are you done?"
"Well, let's go."
He hadn't finished, but it was time to go back.
The two went downstairs. Grace was waiting for the bus outside. However, it was not easy to wait for the bus now, so Grace was still there when Olivia and Brayden got off the car. Olivia pulled Grace into the car and drove to Grace's house.
After sending Grace home, Olivia and Brayden went back.
On the way back, Olivia said, "Brayden, I should be much more relaxed after the release tomorrow. You don't have to worry about me."
It was time for him to go about his own business and not spend too much time on her.
It was not the first time Olivia had said something like this. They knew each other's thoughts, but they were still repeating the same thing and saying the same thing.
Olivia thought this was what the family did.
"I know. Don't worry. I've already put my work schedule on the agenda."
Brayden held Olivia's hand and rubbed his finger against the back of her hand. "Besides, I have something to tell you later."
"Hmm?"
Thing?
What is it?
Olivia looked at Brayden, hoping he could tell her.
Otherwise, she would never have guessed it right.
But Brayden was making a fool of himself. He pinched her palm and said, "I won't tell you now. I'll tell you when it's done."
Olivia smiled. "So, is it a surprise?"
"Well... Sort of."
"Okay."
