"Why? Isn't Mr. Russell worth the price?" Olivia asked back with a light snort.
He did not dare to say that!
After giving her the medicine, Edward glanced to see a piece of paper vaguely under the seam of the sofa. He bent down and picked it up to take a look. That was Brittany's cheque which seemed to be blank. He thought about it and slipped it into his pocket.
"What do you want that for?" Olivia also saw it and asked curiously, "You want to make an offer for her too?"
Edward's eyes twitched. What did he need to make an offer for?!
"Nothing. It might be useful later," he said lightly.
"Oh." Nodding, Olivia went to get her phone. "I'll make a call."
Seeing her get up and walk into the bedroom, Edward considered it. He should also make a phone call. Brittany made such a fuss there might have more trouble coming in.
He was aware of the trouble-making skills of that spoiled lady. He had experienced Brittany’s stubborn harassment before, so it was necessary to warn Mr. Russell.
"Olivia!" It was the first time Olivia took the initiative to call her, so Lily was delighted. "Why are you free to call me today?"
"Come on. I’ve nothing to do. I'm free all day!" After being sarcastic, Olivia said softly, "Lily, I'm sorry. You’ve worked so hard recently!"
Lily disagreed, "It's all right. Come and help me only after you get a good rest!"
"Well, I'm ready to report back!" It sounded like Olivia was in a relaxed mood. "Anyway, I've done my work at home, and I'm not supposed to continue resting!"
