Chapter 218

Lincoln looked at the mountain of pork chops on his plate. Then he looked at the sincere expression on Olivia’s face.

He was stumped. He couldn’t tell if she didn’t know or if she was just pretending. Her eyes were clear.

There was not a speck of pretense in them.

He thought about her age and thought it was understandable to be unclear about the rules of the dinner table.

Sophia was bewildered. So that was what Olivia meant when she said she understood?

She thought the negotiations were done off. Lincoln would surely be severing ties with her.

But the truth was that men were exceptionally patient and accommodating to pretty women.

Sophia glanced at Lincoln warily. But she saw him smiling.

He was not angry at all.

He said, “It must be great to be young. Such youthfulness.”

Sophia rolled her eyes at Olivia. Olivia pretended not to see and went back to her seat.

“As long as you’re okay with it, Mr. Lincoln.”

“Of course, how could I hate that a pretty girl brought me food?”

Lincoln smiled and reached out to get some salad on the table.

But Olivia grabbed it and put some on her plate instead. She acted like she didn’t notice Lincoln

reaching for it.

Sophia was rendered speechless. She was regretting her decision to bring Olivia with her.

“Mr. Lincoln, please forgive her. She’s still young.”

She was getting tired of apologizing on Olivia’s behalf.

Fortunately, Olivia was attractive enough. She was so attractive that Lincoln could tolerate her antics.

“It’s fine. I find Olivia’s innocence very interesting.”

Sophia took the chance to look at Olivia and said, “Olivia, we were late. Let’s make a toast and

apologize to Mr. Lincoln for it.”

Olivia nodded and said, “Alright, Ms. Linden. Go ahead.”

Sophia sighed in relief when she heard Olivia agreeing so readily. At least Olivia wasn’t being too

outrageous.

Olivia obediently stood up and filled up Sophia’s glass for her. She then stood at the side with her

hands beside her.

Sophia coughed lightly and said, “What about your glass? Fill it up, too.”

“Me?” Olivia looked at her with a surprised look. “You called for the toast. I didn’t.”

Sophia was so frustrated she felt like she was going to vomit blood. But she couldn’t express her

frustration due to the

circumstances at hand.

She glared at Olivia and said through gritted teeth, “If you’re not going to drink, then why are you even

here?”

Olivia looked at her innocently and said, “Didn’t you bring me here to eat dinner?”

Sophia’s fingers were clenching her glass so hard it looked like it was going to break.

Olivia added, “But if you like drinking so much, you can drink my portion too.”

Lincoln slammed his glass on the table with a bang. The smile on his face had faded.

“Ms. Linden, it seems your new recruit doesn’t want to show me any respect. I think I won’t be signing the contract.”

One of Lincoln’s aides chipped in, “What’s wrong with this woman? She refuses to drink at the dinner table.

“If you’re not sincere when asking for help, no one would lend you a hand.”

“Please don’t be mad, Mr. Lincoln. She has only been with us for a few days and doesn’t know any better. I’ll drink on

her behalf.”

Sophia downed her glass of wine in one go. She wanted to pour another glass, but Lincoln threw his glass on the floor.

“There’s no need. I do not like to force others to do things they don’t want to do.”

He threw the contract at Sophia and said, “I have another meeting, Ms. Linden. I’ll be going now.”

As he said that, his eyes were shamelessly fixed on Olivia. His intent was clear.

He could already imagine Olivia running toward him and wrapping her hands around his arms.

Olivia did indeed stand up, but she placed her hands by her side.

Like a waitress, she said, “Have a safe trip, Mr. Lincoln. Don’t forget to foot the bill.”
