“She said she’d resign, claiming she couldn’t face her juniors. Losing such a capable employee is a huge loss for our hotel.”
“Resign?”
She seemed genuinely taken aback. Edgar recalled Gerald’s words.
“Nothing unusual was found. Except for a double-structured bottom in her travel bag, but we couldn’t check inside it. Lack of time.”
What could be in there?
The likelihood of Leopold Corporation’s confidential documents was slim.
Edgar wasn’t one to suppress curiosity, especially when it came to obtaining what he wanted. He had hoped to plant a spy as a maid, not anticipating it would be harder than infiltrating a competitor.
“She was perfect.”
“Really? Then why?”
Edgar tilted his head, feigning seriousness.
“I’m just uncomfortable with strangers in my space. If someone must leave this hotel because of this issue, then I will.”
The woman’s clear-cut decision, hidden behind the sofa, left Edgar feeling like a fool.
He was trying to guilt-trip her into accepting service, or else an innocent maid might lose her job. But now, he felt like he was being blackmailed.
“Doesn’t seem like a wise move. A maid who drives out guests. It’s the worst.”
Her calm demeanor contradicted her tumultuous blue eyes.
“What would happen if this became known?”
Edgar looked at her with interest.
Below her round, pale forehead, dense brown eyelashes fluttered slowly.
Each flutter seemed to intensify the scent of roses.
“Would anyone hire her?”
Edgar leaned on her kindness. Olivia Blanchett was kind and gentle. So much so, she could sleep in the same bed with her maid.
“Please, let me meet with the staff member. I want to clear up this misunderstanding.”
After a long silence, the woman spoke calmly. Edgar’s lips slightly curved upward.
“You’re truly kind, Lady Blanchett. It’s also an honor to have you stay at our hotel.”
With a polite smile, Edgar bowed and then rose, extending his hand.
The woman hesitated noticeably before slowly reaching out her hand. Edgar seized the moment to press his lips to the back of her hand. The action was quick and concise.
The touch on her hand was soft and cool.
Suddenly, Olivia’s memories were stirred.
The time when she first met her husband.
Unintentionally, Olivia’s memories began to invade Jian’s mind at unexpected moments.
Some were vivid, others hazy.
The moment Olivia Blanchett fell in love with Johann Leopold at first sight was particularly clear, as if it happened yesterday.
Olivia Blanchett debuted in society at eighteen.
The once-influential Blanchett earldom fell into decline due to Elena Blanchett’s adultery scandal.
Following consecutive business failures, the earldom had nothing left but a shell, with only Elena’s illegitimate granddaughter remaining.
Olivia Blanchett. Thus, she was thrown into the marriage market.
Then came her savior, Johann Leopold, who appeared when she was nearly entangled in a scandal with the crown prince.
Johann proposed, and his lips touched her hand. Her heart fluttered at the moment.
Olivia firmly believed it was love. She had to, as it was her only hope to continue living.
It had to be love.
The man who reminded Olivia of her husband straightened up, meeting her gaze up close.
“Indeed… he resembles him.”
That clear and concise conclusion made her uncomfortable somewhere.
Was it because the man’s grey eyes reminded her of Johann? Their appearances were distinctly different, only that small part overlapping. Why did she feel this way?
“By the way, I happened to see you playing tennis.”
The man, about to turn away, suddenly pivoted, speaking as if just remembering, startling Olivia from her thoughts.
“You seemed to have played for quite some time.”
“Not really long, just occasionally.”
Olivia wished the man would leave now, glancing towards the door, hoping Ann would return soon.
“How about a game?”
“I’m not skilled enough for that.”
Olivia promptly and firmly declined without hesitation.
“You seemed quite adept.”
“Not enough to compete with you.”
“Well, that’s a pity.”
She was about to politely ask him to leave when, fortunately, the door opened. It was Ann.

“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.

Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
