"Thanks, Liv!”
"There's no need to thank me since it’s what I ought to do. Still, I never expected you to already live with the boss. That was quick." Olivia was tidying her house and carrying a stack of clothes. She pinned her phone to her ear with her shoulder as her head slanted to one side. Olivia's voice sounded broken.
"Oh, hey!" Lily wondered if Olivia would be shocked and faint if she found out Lily and Alexander had already registered their marriage. In fact, they registered a long time ago.
"Lily, I’m not criticizing you, but I'm going to say something that might not sound good. Although the boss is not bad and very attractive, you must be careful. I'm not saying he's not good, just that he's too good. Do you understand?"
Olivia knew what she had to say was unpleasant, but she decided it was necessary.
From her point of view, Lily was good at everything, just that she was a little dumb when it came to love. Previously when she was with Nathaniel, she blindly contributed so much, but it did not end well.
Now, Alexander was much better at what he had to offer. If this lasted naturally, it would be great, but what if it did not?
Wealthy families were not easy. So many people had married into wealthy families but met a dismal end. Olivia wanted Lily to be happy. She did not want Lily to go down that route.
"I understand." Lily nodded. She knew Olivia was only concerned about her.
"No, you don't understand," Olivia said.
Lily was speechless.
"The boss is a diamond-grade eligible bachelor. He comes into contact with pretty girls all the time in his circle. Lily, I'm not trying to curse you, but you must protect yourself. After all, you have to think about yourself." Olivia lost her train of thought a little as she said that. "Ah, who cares. I don’t know what I'm saying myself."
Lily smiled. "I know this is for my own good, little miss nosy. Why haven't I noticed how naggy you were before? Let me ask you something. When Edward sent you home, did you nag him all the way?"
Thinking of his quiet personality, Olivia thought it would be funny if she nagged him all the way.
