Chapter 235 Sissy
Finished
Olivia sent Liam home first then proceeded to the office to deal with the backlog of work accumulated over the past couple of days.
In the afternoon, representatives from Sphaera Group came over to discuss a potential collaboration. After both parties. reached an agreement, they immediately signed a contract.
Afterward, Olivia was swamped with work and busied herself until almost seven in the evening.
Had she not promised to have dinner with Harry that evening, she would have worked even later.
Taking into account Harry’s preferences, she specifically reserved a Friyxian restaurant.
Once she arrived at the restaurant, the waiter led her to the seat she had reserved.
Upon seeing a strange man seated at her reserved spot, Olivia frowned and asked in confusion, “Isn’t this my reserved spot? Why is someone else here?”
“He said he was with you,” the waiter replied.
“With me?” Olivia’s frown deepened. “But I don’t know him!”
“Huh?” Panicking, the waiter apologized repeatedly, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. It’s our mistake.”
Right then, the man spoke up. “Pretty lady, how could you not recognize me?”
His voice was familiar, as was his tone.
In disbelief, Olivia looked at him. “You… You’re Harry?”
The man chuckled, nodding in affirmation. “Indeed, it’s me.”
“You…” Olivia studied his face, puzzled. “What’s with this look?”
“It’s not safe for me to be out in public without disguise,” he explained.
Understanding his meaning right away, Olivia wondered if those people from the underground marketplace were still searching for him.
But he’s been at the base all this while. How did he manage to get the news?
Olivia took a long, scrutinizing look at him before settling herself down across from him.
Given that he could roam the world and go everywhere he wanted, she surmised he was certainly no ordinary man and might even be someone dangerous.
Benjamin came over after parking the car and was taken aback to see Harry. He asked, “Ms. Olivia, who is this?”
“Harry,” answered Olivia.
Shocked, Benjamin sat down and gazed at Harry’s face intently.
Pretending not to notice his stare, Harry casually picked up the glass of water from the table and took a sip. With an air of nonchalance, he asked, “I’m on a date with pretty lady here. What are you doing here?”
He made no attempt to hide the disdain in his tone.
Benjamin snorted in contempt as well. “Don’t even think about pestering Olivia, you sissy.”

Chapter 235 Sissy
With a smirk, Benjamin said, “Yeah, you heard me. Sissy!”
He deliberately emphasized the word “sissy.”
Enraged, Harry jumped up from his seat. “Say that again?”
Finished
As the two were about to get in a fight, Olivia massaged her throbbing temples and reprimanded, “Both of you, shut up!”
Only then did Harry and Benjamin calm down.
The two exchanged a glare and quickly turned away, clearly disgusted by each other.
“I won’t stoop to your level for pretty lady’s sake,” said Harry.
With that, he sat upright, his hands folded and resting on the edge of the table as he smiled at Olivia. “I look forward to us having a wonderful evening.”
This sounded so misleading.
“We’re just here for a meal. Stop spouting nonsense.” Olivia shot him an annoyed glare.
However, Harry didn’t seem to mind and picked up the menu to start ordering.
Halfway through the meal, Olivia caught sight of a familiar figure from the corner of her eye. Turning her head for a better look, she was surprised to find it was none other than King Spades.
Something must’ve come up since he appeared.
So, she shot Benjamin a look. The latter grasped her meaning and rose. “I’m heading to the restroom.”
Then, he hurriedly walked in the direction where King Spades was.
