Chapter 13 Move Out

Peter gave a cold glance, then instructed the driver to drive away. The car's exhaust fumes sprayed all over them. Grace discontentedly said, "Peter, I will make you give me an explanation when you come back." Olivia gently held her hand and said, "Forget it, Grace, what he said is true. I am with Alex only for money." At these words, Grace's expression turned extremely unpleasant. "Olivia, what are you saying? I won't allow you to speak of yourself like that. If it weren't for the ruthlessness of the Hall family, pushing you to a dead end, how could you end up like this?" Hearing Grace's words, Olivia felt warmth in her heart. She thought, ‘Grace is the person who understands me the most in this world. So, Peter is actually her brother. Back then, Grace wanted to move out with me because she tried to avoid him. What a coincidence.’ As the two were talking, a car approached from ahead, driven by Milo. Milo stopped the car and took Olivia's luggage out of the car. Olivia quickly went over to thank Milo, then reached out to take the luggage from him. However, Milo spoke up, "That’s okay, Miss Hall. I'll take it upstairs for you." Milo took the luggage and placed it at the door of Olivia’s room, but didn't enter the room. Perhaps he felt entering a girl's bedroom wouldn't be appropriate. As he descended the stairs, Olivia followed behind him and asked, "Where's Mr. Adams?" Milo paused briefly, then politely replied to Olivia, "Miss Hall, Mr. Adams has returned home." "I see," Olivia responded, feeling indescribable. Milo quickly drove away. He wanted to hurry to the Adams villa to report to Alex. At Adams villa. Alex drove in early in the morning, and when Oliver saw him, he couldn't help but be shocked. In his impression, Alex had never stayed out overnight because there was never a woman around him. No matter how late it was, he would always come back to stay at the Adams villa. He walked up to him and asked, "Alex, where did you go last night?" Alex glanced at him, said nothing, and went straight inside with long strides. ***** Oliver saw that Alex didn't respond to him and didn't seem to care. After all, Alex had always been eccentric. He followed behind Alex and headed to the dining room. The servants had already set up breakfast. "Help me make a cup of black coffee," Alex instructed the servant. After speaking, he picked up the financial newspaper beside him and started reading. The servant quickly brought the coffee over, and Alex took a sip before continuing to read the newspaper. Oliver couldn't stay calm anymore. He picked up a sandwich from the plate, took a bite, and then asked, "Alex, do you know Olivia?" "I do," Alex replied. Hearing this, Oliver felt a shock in his heart. Then, he pretended to be calm and asked, "Alex, when did you meet her?" "The last time at the Hall family." Hearing this, Oliver's unease gradually disappeared, and he said, "So, you've only just met her, Alex." Alex nodded without saying a word. After a moment of contemplation, Oliver continued, "Actually, Olivia is my ex-girlfriend..." Alex's expression remained calm. He lifted the cup of black coffee on the table and took a sip. Seeing Alex's reaction, Oliver couldn't help but feel puzzled. He thought, ‘Why is Alex so composed?’ Frowning, Oliver watched Alex with an air of indifference as if none of this concerned him. He thought again, ‘Well, Alex has never been interested in anything, so why would he suddenly be interested in my romantic history?’ Then Oliver felt relieved. He quickly finished his sandwich and then looked at Alex, saying, "Alex, I want to have Rosa move in here." Upon hearing this, Alex's gaze fell on his face, and his tone was cold, "No." There was no room for negotiation in Alex's tone. Taking care of Oliver alone was already hard enough for him. He didn't want to take care of Rosa on top of that. Besides, he had no obligation to take care of his nephew's wife. Most importantly, Rosa always dressed flamboyantly, which gave him a headache. Oliver persisted, "Alex, I am saying this because I can’t bear to leave you. After I get married and move out, I won't be able to see you anymore..." Alex interrupted him, his gaze falling on Oliver, "I'm not dead yet. Whenever you want to see me, you can." Oliver pondered for a moment and said, "Alex, I don't want to move out." Alex set down his coffee, his face turning serious as he looked at Oliver and said coldly, "Then I’ll ask you to move out. This is my house." Hearing this, Oliver didn't say anything else. He simply said, "Alex, I'm full," Then he got up and left. ***** Milo approached and said, "Mr. Adams, Miss Hall's luggage has been moved over." "Alright, what is she doing?" Alex asked casually as he sat on the chair. "Well..." Milo was startled, then quickly responded, "She's at the Flowery Villa with Miss Hunt." However, he couldn't quite understand why Alex would be concerned about a woman now. After all, there were rumors that Alex disliked women, to the extent that even his secretary was male. "Miss Hunt?" Alex asked. Milo replied, "It's Peter's sister." Alex echoed, "Peter's sister." Milo nodded. "Yes." Alex didn't expect that Olivia would also know someone from the Hunt family. He picked up his phone, his slender fingers quickly typing out a few words, [Get ready for me tonight.] Olivia was chatting with Grace when she saw the message from Alex and quickly replied, [Okay.] ***** In the evening, Alex drove back to the Flowery Villa. Oliver followed him with great curiosity. At the entrance of the villa area, Alex stepped out of the car. "Mr. Adams, what about Mr. Oliver..." Milo reminded. Oliver's car also stopped. He got out of the car and walked up to Alex with a smile, saying, "Alex, you're not really hiding a woman here, are you?" Upon hearing this, Alex paused, standing still, emitting a cold aura, "How dare you track me?" Hearing this, Oliver felt a hint of unease in his heart. He quickly explained, "Alex, I was just curious. You haven't been home often lately. I was wondering if you met a woman out there." He added, "Alex, don't force me to go to the villa with you." At this moment, Olivia was standing by the window on the second floor. Seeing this scene, her heart couldn't help but tighten. She quickly hid behind the curtain and observed the situation downstairs. She thought, ‘Why did Oliver come here?’ Oliver and Alex seemed to be having a conversation. After a while, Oliver left in his car. Then, Alex entered the room. Olivia hurriedly approached him, considerately helping him take off his coat, and whispered, "Did Oliver come?"
