"What if you have to choose?!" Olivia was weirdly stubborn today. She had always been a mellow person. It was out of character of her to persist. "If he and I were to have a conflict and were on different sides, who would you choose? What if…what if we become enemies…"
The more she spoke, the more anxious and angrier she became.
"You won't become enemies!" Lily interrupted. "I won't let the two of you become enemies! You're not an unreasonable person, and neither is he. If there comes a day when you two have a conflict, I will help solve the misunderstanding.

Although Lily wanted to chase after Olivia and clarify things, time was running out. Lily had to rush back to get her things, drop by the hospital, and rush straight to X Department. Time was tight, and she could not afford to waste too much of it.
