"It shouldn''t be too hard," Micah said, sounding a bit sorry, "but thanks anyway."


    "No need to thank me, this is my own thing, nothing to do with you," Olivia replied with a smile. "You never mentioned it, I just didn''t want to get involved." "Okay," Micah responded.


    "Mr. Clemens, actually, I came to see you today because..."


    Before Olivia could finish, a white car drove by.


    Micah instinctively turned his head; it was Joe''s white Bentley. His brows furrowed, and he immediately ordered, "Turn around!"


    "Yes, sir." The attendant made a U-turn at the next intersection.


    Olivia was stunned and asked, "Mr. Clemens, did you forget something?"


    "Sorry, I might not be able to take you to dinner today," Micah said with a frown. "You can get off up ahead, we''ll reschedule."


    "But..." Olivia wanted to say something but held back. "It''s okay, you go ahead and take care of your business. Just remember to contact me when you''re done," she said understandingly.


    "Alright," Micah said, sounding a bit sorry, "I''ll call you."


    "Okay," Olivia said with a gentle smile. No matter the situation, she always managed her emotions well.


    The car stopped up ahead, and Olivia got out. Her car was parked by the roadside.


    Micah''s car headed back up the hill toward Hillside Vi.


    Olivia stood by the roadside, watching his car speed away. The smile on her face gradually disappeared, reced by immense disappointment.


    This was the third time. Every time they had a date, it was interrupted. And it was always because of Sadie.


    "That seemed to be Joe''s car just now," the attendant said with a frown. "It''s said that Ms. James lives at Hillside Vi. Mr. Clemens must have seen Joe going to see Ms. James, so he turned back."


    "I know," Olivia muttered. Her face darkened and became uncontrobly gloomy.


    "Then..." The attendant looked at her cautiously.


    "Wait here," Olivia spoke as she got into her car. "Wait for Joe''s car toe down."


    The attendant said, "Yes, ma''am."


    Sadie woke up early, her hand still in pain. With Annika''s help, she managed to wash up and change clothes beforeing downstairs for breakfast.


    The three little girls had gone down the hill with Arya to y, making the house unusually quiet, which Sadie found a bit unsettling.


    "Ms. James, you should drink less coffee; it''s bad for your stomach," Annika reminded her with concern.


    "I didn''t sleep wellst night, and now I''m sleepy," Sadie sighed as she rubbed her temples. "I have things to do today, so I need to stay alert."


    "Things to do? What things?" Annika asked, a bit surprised. Besides taking care of the children, they hardly had anything to do.


    "If you don''t look for trouble, trouble will find you," Sadie muttered. When she woke up in the morning, she had a missed call from Craig. She hadn''t called back, but she felt he would soone looking for her. "Trouble?" Annika was about to press when a female bodyguard hurriedly reported, "Ms. James, Duke Louis is here."


    "How many people did he bring?" Sadie asked.


    "He brought three attendants," the bodyguard said. "Joe didn''te."


    "Invite them in," Sadie said. She put down her utensils and gave Annika a look.


    Annika immediately went to gather people and prepare for any situation.


    Last time, as soon as Sadie left, Craig had sent people to capture them. It was despicable.


    This time, with Craig having the nerve toe here, Sadie naturally had to be fully prepared.


    The gate opened, and the white Bentley drove in.


    Annika led people to greet them. The car door opened, and Craig got out with three attendants, wearing a gentle smile. "Sadie, your ce is hard to find."


    "Duke Louis, long time no see!" Sadie sat on the sofa in the living room, coldly watching Craig. She spoke icily, "You''ve gone to great lengths to find me. What do you want?"
