They had been chatting online before this, but now he was suddenly suggesting he meet her. Olivia
was both surprised and nervous, but she still replied, [No problem.]
She just had to quickly draw a beautiful first draft.
After eating the spaghetti, Olivia took a bath and decided to go out.
“Liv, where are you going?”
“To work.”
“You have a hangover and a headache. Take a day off today. I’ve already talked to Jennie about it.”
Olivia smiled. “It’s alright. I’ve eaten spaghetti, and now, I feel better. My client is urging me to send him
a first draft. I have to finish it quickly.”
“Wait.”
Fred took a thermos flask and handed it to her. “Take this.”
“What is this?”
“Tea. It’s good for your health, especially for hangovers.”
After Olivia took it, she patted his hand. “Fred, I must thank you for caring for me for so many years.”
“Liv, you don’t have to thank me.”

With that, Olivia chuckled and headed to work.
Once she was in the atelier, she started to beautify Mr. M’s first draft.
However, her head hurt because of the hangover, making her unable to focus, which frustrated
her.
Suddenly, the assistant knocked on the door, holding flowers in his hand. He said, “Ms. James, the
flowers for today are here.”
Olivia frowned. “Just put it in the vase as usual. Why do you have to show them to me?”
“There’s a card and a box today.”
Olivia glanced at it. “Give me the card and the box. Take out the flowers and put them in a vase.”
“Okay”
“Close the door for me on your way out.”
“Okay, Ms. James.”
Xavier was the sender of these flowers. She had rejected them, but he would not listen to her, so
she could only accept it.
However, she did not understand what he was up to today.
When she opened the card, she saw many lines of words.
[I wanted to send you home last night, but I was afraid you might think I was taking advantage of
the situation, so I called Fred to pick you up. I hope you don’t mind.]
[The gift is my apology. After all, I said I would drink with you last night, but I drank very little.]
[You are a designer. You might not like ordinary jewelry if I give it to you. So, I looked for something
else.]
[This is the cinnabar amulet bracelet I asked someone to make for me. Don’t worry. I have never worn
it before. I hope it can keep you safe.]
[On the other hand, regarding the choices and regrets discussed last night, I would like to say that
whatever you fear will come to you. If you are forced to, you might as well choose, right?]
[Finally, don’t call me back. I’ll be abroad by the time you see this card.]
After reading the card, Olivia opened the box on the side and found a cinnabar amulet bracelet.
She smiled.
That man was an expert at winning a woman’s heart. His words were caring and straightforward, yet
creative.
Olivia shook her head somewhat helplessly. She could not do anything about it.
After a moment of silence, she took out her phone to make a call.
“Ken, don’t hang up just yet,” She paused. “I’m not here to advise you. I just want to remind you to be

afraid…”
“I know.”
“Can you tell me when you find out the truth?”
Ken remained silent for a moment and answered, “Of course I will tell
you.
“Okay. Then, be careful, and keep in touch.”
After hanging-up the call, Olivia a sigh of relief. She was selfish when she questioned Ken, but stopping
him from taking revenge was also selfish.
She was afraid she could not get past herself.
Now that she had said it out loud, she felt better.
Just as she was deep in her thoughts, Jennie walked into her office.
“What are you thinking about? You seem so distracted.”
Olivia was startled for a moment. “Nothing. Just a hangover headache.”
“You should have taken a day off at home and rested well.”
“It’s okay. Mr. M is urging me for the first draft, and I can’t reject him.”
Jennie nodded. She walked over to Olivia and bit her lips as she asked, “Who was the man who came
to look for you yesterday?”
