StarNovelChapter 525
“A friend.”
Olivia asked casually, “Why are you asking?”
Jennie smiled. “Nothing. He just seemed a little cold, so I thought it was your ex-husband coming
to look for trouble. That’s why I asked.“
“Don’t worry. That man is not my ex-husband. He is not usually like that.”
“Really? What’s he usually like?”
“Well. He is usually funny and elegant. He doesn’t have a beard and is usually cheerful.”
“Oh, I see. He looked a bit sad yesterday and a bit… murderous…”
Olivia lifted her head and stared at Jennie as she asked, “Jennie, why do you want to know about this
so badly?”
“I-I care about you.”
Jennie felt a little guilty and did not have the guts to look into Olivia’s eyes.

Look at me. Tell me, have you seen him before? Or… Have you fallen in love with him at first sight?”
“No! That’s impossible.”
Jennie grinned and pushed her away. “What are you talking about, Pheebs? Do I look like the kind. of
person who falls in love at first sight? Besides, how could I like him when he looked so old?”
“Are you sure?”
“Of course!”
However, the more Olivia observed, the more she felt like Jennie was behaving unusually.
In all the years she had known Jennie, she had never seen her care for any man.
Jennie was cold even to her ex-boyfriend.
However, when it was about Ken, she showed a hint of shyness and guilt.
It was just that they had only met once, and Jennie could not possibly fall for someone so quickly.
However, Olivia felt it was her duty as a friend to warn Jennie. She said thoughtfully, “Jennie, I don’t
care if that’s the case. I have to warn you about something.
“Don’t think about dating that man. It won’t work out.”
Jennie was startled, and she chuckled as she patted Olivia’s shoulder. “Why do you look so serious? I
said it’s not because of that.”
Olivia said nothing more and poured her a cup of drink. “Drink it. It’s good for
your health.”
“Okay.”
She had said what she wanted to say. There was nothing she could do anymore.
Two days later, when Olivia had finished the first draft, she immediately messaged Mr. M.
[Mr. M, I’ve finished the first draft. Do you want to collect it at the atelier, or should I meet you
somewhere else?]
A while later, Olivia received a reply.
[4.00 p.m. at Moonshride Hotel. Room 3606.]
It was a simple message.
In the afternoon, Olivia saw it was almost time.
She packed the first draft and informed Jennie before she left.
It was her first meeting with Mr. M, and she wanted to make a good impression.

It was four o’clock sharp when she reached Room 3606. Olivia took a deep breath and knocked
on the door.
However, after knocking on the door and waiting for a long time without getting any response, she,
knocked again. “Sir, I’m Phoebe from the TO Atelier.”
At this moment, a staff member approached her.
“Are you Ms. Phoebe James?”
Olivia nodded. “I am.”
“This is the room access card Mr. M asked me to give you.” With that, he handed her the room card
and walked away.
Room access card?
Olivia was confused and even a little panicked.
After all, she had gone experienced many unfriendly incidents in hotels.
However, she was already there and had to see what was going on. She bit her lips and opened
the door.
It was a bright and spacious suite, but no one was in there.
She wondered where Mr. M was. It occurred to her that he might be hiding somewhere.
Just then, to her surprise, the phone in the room rang.
