Chapter 270 Way Out Of Line
In contrast to Olivia’s apparent discomfort, Nathan seemed much more composed. He appeared to be examining the watch in the box.
Then, lifting his eyelids, he cast a cool gaze in Olivia’s direction, asking. “Is it a gift from someone else?”
His gaze sent chills down her spine, and she quickly reached out to take the watch, responding curtly, “Yeah.”
She didn’t even know what she was feeling guilty about.
Nathan raised an eyebrow, asking “Who is it from”
His question instantly ignited anger in Olivia’s heart, and she couldn’t help retorting sarcastically, “That has nothing to do with you, and shouldn’t you know better than to touch other people’s things?”
With that, she sneered, “Even Liam knows he shouldn’t touch someone’s things.”
Following that, she set the watch aside and turned her face away, refusing to look at him.
Her accusation made Nathan frown.
She was unaware that, to him, he had never considered her as “other people”
He
e could clearly sense her detachment and indifference.
Clenching his fists, he firmly locked his gaze onto her pretty face.
If his memory served him right, he had seen this particular watch on Instagram just a few days ago.
It was probably posted by some scion who claimed it was a gift for his wife.
Furthermore, the wristwatch was a limited edition from this brand, specifically designed for couples.
When she was on the phone with King earlier, she mentioned the watch. Does that mean the watch is a gift from King? If it is, then King’s intentions are pretty obvious.“–
Nathan’s face fell instantly. The annoyance that inundated him prompted him to reach out and grasp Olivia’s hand.
The latter turned, staring at him in surprise. “What do you want?”
She attempted to pry his hand away, but he was too strong
Irritated, she raised her voice. “Nathan, what on earth is your problem now?”
Nathan narrowed his eyes dangerously and bit out through clenched teeth. “You should remember the agreement we signed, right?”
When he brought that up again, Olivia couldn’t help scoffing. “My memory isn’t that bad, so you don’t have to remind me time and again!”
Who knows what’s his problem this time!
“If you remember, why are you still accepting gifts from others?” The mere thought of the meaning behind that watch was enough to make Nathan’s anger boil over.
Chuckling in exasperation, Olivia asked, “Mr. Carter, does any clause in our agreement state that I can’t accept gifts from
others!”
There’s seriously something wrong with him. Why does he have to meddle in everything?
“Do you know who this watch was designed for?” Nathan asked.

She soon came to her senses and thought Nathan was just looking for trouble.

Hence, she furrowed her brows furiously. “Mr. Carter, this is a gift from my superior as a reward for my hard work. Stop viewing everything with such a cynical perspective!”

Nathan’s face darkened even further when he heard that. Parting his lips, he wanted to say something in response, but
beat him to it.
“Also, so what if the watch is really meant for couples? Can I really stop others from trying to woo me?” she said.
Even though she had signed that agreement, it could only restrict her and not anyone else.
What gives him the right to question me like this?
Olivia’s anger flared her expression turning icy and frigid.
