“What can I do for you?”
Phil was quite rude, but Nicole didn’t mind at all.
“How much do you know about what happened to Olivia?”
“Nothing.”
Phil stared at Nicole coldly and gave her an unreasonable answer.
Nicole slightly squinted.
“As long as you are willing to tell me, you can ask for anything. No matter if you want to be the A-list
actor in the entertainment business or you want money, as you name it, I’ll satisfy you.”
That was the best condition that Nicole could offer.
Although the entertainment business was quite messy, as long as she wished, she could make anyone
popular.
However, Phil sneered and said, “Think you can bribe me? Unfortunately, I don’t need anything.”
“Don’t you?”
Nicole pressed her lips and stared at Phil, and suddenly she understood something.
“Do you like Olivia?”
Phil’s face was stiffened. A trace of awkwardness flashed through his face.
“She’s my Sugar Mommy. Isn’t it normal I like her?”
Probably it was because Nicole was gazing at him, Phil suddenly didn’t dare to look into her eyes.
Nicole had a complicated feeling in her heart.
She knew how nice Olivia was, but Olivia was still a married woman now, so she couldn’t do anything
out of the norm, even she wasn’t the one who had made a mistake.
“You’d better forget about it. I can let you stay beside her, but I can also make you leave her instantly
and make you unable to see her anymore.”
“Who do you think you are?”
“I’m Olivia’s family!”
Nicole squinted, her sharp gaze shooting out directly. Phil had no guts to meet her eyes at all.
“Ms. Kent is an independent person. No matter what she does, she has her own principles.”
“But right now, she’s still a married woman. No matter what has happened between Jacob Brown and
her, she’s still his wife. If you brought her any negative impact, I can make you vanish in a blink silently.
Believe it or not? You can try me!”
Nicole felt that probably it was because he had been retired for a long time so that others all
misunderstood Jacob was the only backer behind Olivia.
Olivia had her besties and family as well.
Nicole believed that she was one of them.
No matter what Olivia wanted to hide from her now, for Nicole, Olivia was irreplaceable.
Obviously, Phil didn’t expect that Nicole could emanate such a strong aura. He was startled and
became less arrogant.
Seeing that the effect that she wanted had been achieved, Nicole withdrew her gaze and asked, “What
sickness does Olivia have now? You can’t tell me you have no idea.”
Phil squinted slightly as if he was thinking. Nicole didn’t urge him.
After a long while, he finally thought it over and sat down opposite Nicole.
Nicole poured a glass of water for him and said in a much gentle tone, “If you treat Olivia truly well, you
shouldn’t help her hide it. For some sicknesses, the earlier the treatment is taken, the more effective it
will be. If you kept hiding it, her sickness would become more serious. In that case, even if we want to
help her, it might not work.”
Probably it was because Nicole’s tone became gentler, or Phil truly cared about Olivia. He whispered,
“Can you not let Ms. Kent know I like her?”
“Ehn?”
Nicole was quite surprised.
Phil let out a bitter laugh. “In Ms. Kent’s heart, I’m probably only like her younger brother. She didn’t do
anything to me as everyone may think. We have a pure friendship.”
After finishing his words, as if he was afraid that Nicole didn’t believe him, he immediately looked up at
her and added, “I’m not lying. I swear!”
“I believe you.”
In fact, Nicole believed Olivia.
She didn’t think Olivia would stop loving Jacob so suddenly. Even Jacob had cheated on her, Olivia had
loved him for so many years and she couldn’t stop it so soon.
Hence, Nicole believed that this period of time should be the most difficult for Olivia.
Upon hearing Nicole’s words, Phil breathed a sigh of relief. He continued, “I’m just a poor college
student. I was born in a poor family and I have a younger brother and sister to go to school. I came for
an audition because I heard the extras are also paid. It was a scene for Ms. Kent. She heard that I was
from a poor family, so she asked the director to give me a small role. Although I didn’t have many lines,
for my appearance, I could earn higher than an extra.”
While Phil spoke, tears well up in his eyes. This was the first time that he told an outsider about this
experience.
Nicole didn’t expect that it was how Phil and Olivia got to know each other.
Others might not know about it, but Nicole understood why Olivia had done it soon.
Olivia must have seen her own past on Phil, so she promoted him as an exception.
“Did Olivia also ask her company to hire you?”
“Yes. After shooting for that scene, her company hired me. I successfully signed the contract as an
actor. The company also sent me to the trainee program and spent a lot of money on me. Ms. Kent
also takes good care of me. When I was out of town, she helped me take care of my brother and sister.
I’ve always been grateful to her.”
Upon hearing his words, Nicole finally knew why Phil would have a crush on Olivia.
“She’s married.”
“But she’s not happy! Her husband cheated on her! At that time, Ms. Kent was seriously sick. She was
on high fever and fell on the roadside. If I hadn’t passed by that place, I wonder what would happen to
her. Where was her husband at that time?”
Suddenly, Phil became quite excited.
Upon hearing Olivia’s matter from another man, Nicole felt quite upset.
“Did you mean Olivia was sick at that time?”
“Yes. Before that happened, she said she had a choking sensation in her chest and she didn’t feel well.
She always coughs. I thought it was a sequela after she fell from the wire, so I asked her to go to the
hospital for a checkup. However, Ms. Kent refused.”
“Wait. Did you say Olivia had fallen from the wire?”
Nicole looked nervous immediately.
“Yes.”
Phil’s word made Nicole’s eyes cold.
“Did Jacob Brown know about this incident?”
“We called Mr. Brown, but a woman answered the call. She said Mr. Brown was in a meeting and he
couldn’t answer the call. She would pass the message to him. However, after Ms. Kent had gone
through the checkup and left the hospital, Mr. Brown still hadn’t called her.”
Phil was quite angry.
Nicole guessed that the woman who answered the call must be Jacob’s assistant, Julissa.
If that woman had any evil intention to Jacob, she wouldn’t give any chance to let Olivia and Jacob be
together.
Nicole squinted immediately.
It seemed Julissa secretly played a lot of dirty tricks on Olivia.
“How did Olivia feel at that time?”
“Ms. Kent was in an extremely bad mood. Since then, she has been coughing all the time. We all
believe it was because she feels quite frustrated about this matter. Later, she found Mr. Brown cheated
on her, so she became more depressed.”
Nicole’s eyes became more darkened.
Inwardly, she cursed Jacob.
