I Spy With My Secret Eyes

Chapter 18

Oliver was surprised. “Why did Yvonne make a detour to my house?” he wondered.

Joanna came out with the lunch box. Seeing Yvonne leaning against her brother’s car, Joanna couldn’t help asking Oliver, “Oliver, this is…”

Oliver introduced Joanna to Yvonne first, “She is sister.”

Joanna also introduced herself politely. “Hello, I’m Oliver’s sister, Joanna.”

Yvonne smiled and said, “Hello, my name is Yvonne. I’m his girlfriend…”

Yvonne blushed before she could finish her words. “I accidentally blurted out what is in my mind,” she thought.

Joanna couldn’t help laughing, but she was happy to see her brother have such a beautiful pursuer.

Oliver was embarrassed. “How could Yvonne, who has always been smart, fail to hide her thoughts?” he thought.

This reminded him of a funny video he saw on the Internet.

“Hello, I’m her brother!”

“Hello, I’m her sister-in-law!”

Oliver didn’t want to be embarrassed. He called out to Joanna, “Sit in the back seat. I will take you to the hospital.”

Joanna left quickly with the lunchbox. “No, I’m not in a hurry. I’ll take the bus to the hospital. Go to work with this beauty.”

The word “beauty” made Yvonne chuckle. “Oliver, your sister is so cute!”

“Is she cute?” Oliver asked back, but then he remembered the

felt circumstances his younger sister had endured. She had been an adorable child, but his past lack of resources prevented him from providing her with a comfortable life. Now, he was determined to ensure that his parents and sister could live happily.

When they reached the store, Hailey had arrived just moments before them. She had parked her car and was observing their arrival.

Yvonne blushed and hurriedly opened the store door with her key. Then she went into the store to get busy.

Hailey glanced at Oliver and said lightly, “Oh, you’re so happy to go to work together. Did you two go back for dinner and watch a movie last night?”

Oliver quickly clarified the situation, saying, “No, I happened to see her next to my car downstairs as soon as I went out, so we came to the store together.”

Hailey let out a snort but didn’t say anything further. She entered the shop and gestured for Yvonne, who was feeling shy, to come closer. “Bring the document over,” Hailey said, waving her hand.

Yvonne hurriedly brought a red notebook over. Hailey took it and handed it to Oliver. “Look.”

Oliver asked, “What is this?”

Oliver saw the words [Certificate of Property Ownership] written on the cover of the red book when he got it. He felt strange and was stunned when he opened it.

The account name in the book belonged to Oliver, and the photo featured him as well. He examined the address carefully and realized that it was the same as the detached mansion that Sofia had sold the previous day!

He thought, “Why did Hailey transfer a mansion worth more than 2 million dollars to me?”

Suddenly, it dawned on him that Hailey had arranged for Yvonne and Sofia to handle the transfer of ownership for that very same mansion yesterday. He recalled receiving several secretive phone calls from Hailey during that time.

When she left last night, he remembered that she told him that she would give him something in the store today. He was curious about it last night. So it turned out this was the deal.

Oliver realized that in the store, there were photocopies of his personnel ID card and his photo, which were under Yvonne’s control. It dawned on him that Hailey must have used those documents to transfer the ownership of the mansion to him without his knowledge or consent.

Hailey sat on the couch and relaxed her waist. She said to Oliver coldly, “Don’t be emotional. You made 6 million dollars for me yesterday. Even if I reward you with this mansion that is worth 2 million dollars, I still have a profit of 4 million dollars.

Hailey added a few more words to Oliver’s surprise, “Our previous agreement was invalidated. Your salary is calculated according to the new rules. Your basic salary is 20,000 dollars, and then the commission is calculated at 40% of the net profit of the store. You should have earned 2.4 million dollars from yesterday’s 6 million dollars, so you earn your own house!”

Oliver was a little moved, but he shook his head and said, “Ms. Fox, you don’t have to change your conditions anymore. I am Very satisfied

Hailey cast a brief glance at Yvonne, who was preoccupied with her tasks, and spoke with a faint smile. “I’m not a bad person. I’m simply not oblivious to your potential. In this world, there are countless temptations. Take a look at yourself. There’s a young lady who gets attracted to you like ants to candy right after you proved your worth. So, I decided to grant you the benefits all at once, ensuring that you won’t be swayed by others.”

Oliver didn’t care whether she was being sarcastic or suggestive. He patted his chest and said, “Ms. Fox, you helped me when I was in the most difficult time. I understand the truth of being a human being. No matter how much money I earned, I won’t leave unless you drive me away. I will never betray you!”

“Okay!” Hailey squinted her beautiful eyes and said to Oliver, “Samuel and my best friend used to say that!”

“What else could I say? Time reveals a person’s heart,” Oliver thought.

Hailey caught Yvonne and Oliver coming to work together. Yvonne couldn’t help feeling a sense of unease, stealing glances at Oliver and Hailey every now and then.

Oliver suddenly thought, “Hailey asked Yvonne to deal with this property deed yesterday. So Yvonne knew yesterday that Hailey gave me a mansion worth over 2 million dollars as a reward. Was it because of this that she confessed her love to me last night?”

Suddenly, Oliver’s passion for Yvonne disappeared. Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Wasn’t the lesson from Isabel hurtful enough?” he asked himself in his heart.

Yvonne fell in love with him because he had money and a house worth over a few million dollars. Oliver wondered what would happen if he didn’t have these things anymore.

After all, he had been working at Hailey’s store for over two years, and Yvonne hadn’t shown any interest in him until recently. If her feelings were genuine, wouldn’t she have developed them long ago?

Seeing Oliver feeling down and despondent, Hailey decided to intervene. She stood up and said, “Can’t you handle a few harsh words? Alright, I won’t say anything more. Come with me; let’s go out.”

Oliver chose not to clarify Hailey’s misunderstanding. He silently followed her out of the store. When he was about to open the car door of the Porsche 911, Hailey handed him her car key and said, “Drive my car.”

She was driving a Bentley Continental today. She would never drive Rolls-Royce Dawn again, and she had formally filed a lawsuit against the company.

After hitting the highway, Oliver asked Hailey again, “Ms. Fox, where are we going?”

“Wherever,” Hailey said silently and then asked Oliver, “I need to go out in a few days. It will take more than a week. Can your father… Will you be able to spare a week’s time?”

Oliver nodded and reassured her, saying, “Rest assured. My mother and sister are looking out for my father. Even if I’m not physically present, it won’t make a significant difference in their care.”

Hailey hummed and after pondering for a while, she added, “I have a connection with Mr. York from the hospital. I have requested him to invite the leading expert in this field from our country for your father’s surgery. Mr. York also briefed me on your father’s condition. The timing of the treatment is ideal. The doctor is highly skilled, and the medical resources provided are of the highest quality. Please be rest assured.”

Oliver nodded with a sore nose. “Ms. Fox, really thank you so much.”

Hailey said with a smile, “Come on. Don’t thank me anymore. It’s kind of cheesy.”
