Chapter 18: Serving You Again
The private room lay vacant as Victor entered, nonchalantly shutting the door behind him.
For a moment, the room was so quiet that they could only hear each other’s breathing.
Olivia glanced around, a sense of impending danger gripping her, causing her to struggle fiercely.
“What do you want? Let me go!” She voiced her plea, her words laced with urgency.
The next second, the man effortlessly pressed her against the wall.
Their bodies were almost pressed tightly together.
The man’s hot breath sprayed on her ear.
Olivia’s struggling stopped instantly. Leaning against the wall, she stiffened her body, even unconsciously slowing down her breathing.
At this distance, as long as she took a slightly deeper breath, she could touch the person in front of her.
The private room became engulfed in silence.
Olivia clenched her teeth, her mind in chaos.
No matter how much time had passed, the oppressive feeling from this man remained equally intense.
But… their relationship had long changed.
Olivia forcefully pinched her palm, forcing herself to calm down.
They were already divorced!
She and Victor had nothing to do with each other now!
They were people from two different worlds!
With this in mind, Olivia took a deep breath and spoke calmly, her voice composed despite the turmoil within her, “Victor Leer, let go of me. If you have something to say, say it properly.”
Hearing her indifferent tone, Victor was momentarily taken aback. After a moment, he stepped back half a step, but he still didn’t release his grip on her.
Olivia breathed a sigh of relief and her expression became more composed.
“Don’t you have anything to say to me?” he inquired.
Seeing the change in her expression, Victor narrowed his eyes.
Perhaps it was because she had moved on, Olivia didn’t have any waves in her heart when she heard this. She distanced herself and said, her voice tinged with detachment. “Mr. Leer, we have been divorced for six years. It seems… there’s nothing for me to say to you.”
As soon as her words fell, Victor forcefully grabbed Olivia’s chin.
She was forced to look up and met his gaze.
“What did you call me?” he demanded, his anger on the verge of eruption.
Suppressing the pain, Olivia averted her gaze and remained silent.
Seeing her silence, Victor became even more furious.
Mr. Leer?
The form of address she used was unfamiliar and grated on his nerves.
Also, it has been six years!
Hasn’t she always been so heartless?
Heartless enough to abandon her own daughter, treating her like a stranger!
No one is more ruthless than her!
“Olivia, why pretend to be a stranger to me?”
Victor tightened his grip on her hand, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
Olivia winced in pain, furrowing her brow as she looked back at him, her eyes filled with resistance.
Victor sarcastically curled his lips, “Weren’t you the one who claimed to like me, to love me? Now you act like a stranger? Have you forgotten what you did to me back then? You’ve forgotten, but I haven’t!”
Olivia was taken aback when he mentioned the events from six years ago.
How could she forget that night?
That night, she had approached him, almost like a sacrifice, just for a little tenderness.
Thinking about her emotions at that time, Olivia felt a chill in her heart. Her hand hanging by her side clenched into a fist, as she spoke firmly, “I remember. So what? Mr. Leer, do you feel like you’re at a disadvantage now and want to reclaim it? Tell me, how do you want me to compensate you?”
Victor’s anger surged throughout his body, and the oppressive atmosphere in the room became suffocating.
The pain in her jaw became more pronounced, but Olivia remained resolute. She continued, unfazed, “To be honest, that night, you were unconscious, and I felt nothing. Looking back, it meant nothing more than that. But I did make a move on you, so if you seek compensation, I won’t object.”
Very well, after several years, this woman knew exactly which words to use to provoke him.
Victor dangerously narrowed his eyes, his anger reaching its peak.
That night, he truly had no consciousness, and he couldn’t recall the specifics.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
But Olivia’s tone, if it were any man, would surely anger him.
After a few seconds of silence, Victor lifted her chin slightly and spoke with a chilling tone, “Nothing more than that? Since it gave you such a misunderstanding, I don’t mind serving you again.”
A hint of panic flashed in Olivia’s eyes as she watched the man lean closer. She wanted to evade him, but there was nowhere to escape.
