Chapter 418

The two bodyguards watched Olivia enter and left.

But instead of going anywhere else, they went to the car parked outside the apartment.

Not long after they got in the car, Olivia came down.

Seeing Olivia walking out of the apartment, both of them were surprised.

But when they saw Olivia coming towards the car, they opened the door and got out.

"Miss Hadley." Olivia nodded and looked at them.

"Did Brayden ask you to follow me and protect me?"

"Yes"

"Well, could you please not tell Brayden about tonight?"

She didn't want Brayden to worry.

They had seen Olivia hugging Everett, but they knew what to say and what not to say.

"Miss Hadley, don't worry.We're just protecting your life.As long as you're safe, we won't tell Mr.James
anything else."

Brayden had told them to call him only when something happened to Olivia.

They don't have to be like detectives that report Olivia's whereabouts and what she did to him every
day.

"Well, thank you"



Olivia was not afraid that the two of them would tell Brayden about her hugging Everett, but she didn't
want to distract him because of this.She wanted him to concentrate on work.

Olivia went back to the apartment.

The two bodyguards followed her in and watched as she got home before leaving.

The next morning, Olivia got up early to wash up and go to work.

But she didn't look well today.

Even if she put on makeup, it couldn't cover up the thin blood in her eyes.She had a nightmare last
night and didn't sleep much.

Grace also came early, even earlier than Olivia.She didn't sleep much last night either.

But she had insomnia, not nightmares like Olivia.

Olivia went to the design room and saw the door was open.

Grace had started her work.

Olivia was surprised and then curved her lips.

Grace didn't work much yesterday afternoon.She felt guilty.

It was no surprise that she came early this morning.

"Morning, Grace"

Olivia walked in.

Grace didn't hear Olivia's voice.She was thinking, frowning, and completely immersed in her own world.



Olivia was surprised to not hear Grace's response.

She walked over and looked at Grace.

Grace was sorting out the fabric.

She was putting the same fabric together so that Olivia wouldn't have to look around, which would save
a lot of time.

However, as she was thinking about something, her work was not so good.

The down fabric was supposed to be put together, but she put it with the woolen fabric, which was
obviously not right.

Olivia stood in front of Grace and looked at her face.

She normally looked serious and focused, but now she was frowning.

It was as if she was troubled by something.

Olivia remembered the look on Grace's face when she left last night and called, "Grace."

Grace did not respond.

Olivia reached out to Grace.

"Grace."

Grace's eyes were blocked by a hand, and her face turned impatient.She thought she was at home, so
she raised her hand and pushed Olivia's hand away.

"You're so annoying"



Olivia was stunned.

Grace did not realize that Olivia was standing in front of her until it was quiet and something suddenly
came to her mind.She immediately looked up.

"Olivia."

She finally regained her senses.

Olivia said, "The fabric was misplaced’ Grace immediately looked at the fabric in her hand, exclaimed,
and then quickly put it into the right place.”

Olivia said nothing and watched her correct her mistake.

Grace put down the fabric, looked at Olivia, and bit her lip.

"Olivia, I'm sorry...She made a mistake.It was the most basic mistake.

"It's OK” Olivia said softly.

She didn't look like or feel like blaming Grace.

But she said, "Grace, you're my assistant, and you're like my sister.I know what you're like.I don't blame
you, but I want you to tell me if you have any problems or solve them yourself"

"If you can't solve them, you can ask others for help, or me, or else you will affect your work, or even
my work.Do you understand?"

Olivia looked at Grace with serious eyes.

Grace's problem seemed to be a big deal.She wanted her to say it.



After Grace heard Olivia's words, her eyes were filled with struggle and hesitation.

Olivia was right.

She wanted to solve it, but she didn't know how to solve it.

Last night, Ann told Grace to bring her to AK Company to work overtime from today.

After she and Olivia got off work, she and Grace came back to work overtime to help Olivia.

Ann said she had wronged Olivia.She also said she didn't want Olivia to know about her situation, but
she wanted to help, so she had to do this.

It was a good idea.

For Ann.

But for Grace, it was not.

Ann was no longer an employee of AK Company.

Although the two of them knew each other, Grace didn't feel she could take Ann to the company
without permission.

But it was good for Ann to have the intention to help.

So, it was friendship versus the bottom line of work, and Grace didn't know what to choose.

Olivia saw the struggle in Grace's eyes and said, "Grace, you must tell me if you have any difficulties,
especially when you can't solve them or don't know how to solve them"



Grace's brows furrowed and she began to dig her nails into her flesh.She wanted to tell Olivia, but she
couldn't say it.

Grace was anxious.

"Olivia, I want to tell you, but I can't say it.I."

She was very anxious.

Olivia comforted her.

"It's okay.Take your time.Tell me what happened.What can I do for you? Don't worry"

Olivia's voice was gentle, making Grace feel calm.

Grace nodded and took a deep breath.

"I need some time to calm down"

"Okay."

Olivia turned around to do her work.

Grace stood there and watched her.

The balance in her heart began to tilt.

Olivia was so busy, if there was one more person to help her, Olivia wouldn't be so tired.

Grace clenched her hand.

Yes! She had an answer in her heart!



"Olivia, I've made up my mind.It's settled.Don't worry!"

Grace came to Olivia and said excitedly with a twinkle in her eyes.

Olivia noticed the light in Grace's eyes.

So she knew Grace returned to normal now.

But she still asked, "Can you really solve it yourself?"

"Yes! Of course!"

"Okay, but if there's anything else you can't solve, you have to tell me."

"I will"

Grace then put her mind to work.

Olivia looked at her for a while and felt relieved.

Preston went to AK's warehouse this morning for some work.

When he returned to AK Company, it was 10:20.He walked into the president's room and was stunned
when he saw the man sitting on the sofa.
