Chapter 26: Have We Met Before?

After the meal, Chole rushed to clean the dishes, and Olive followed her to the kitchen and said: "Kung Pow Chicken is delicious."     Chole gave Olive a gentle smile, and said with a fascinating voice, "Thank you for praise."     Olive turned a blank eye to Chole, and then she picked out the fruit to wash.     Chole washed the dishes and said, "Well, I decided to go to Ivy's bar to work."     "Actually, you don't have to worry so much." Although there is no big and expensive life here, at least there was food and shelter, and seriously, it is not a burden for Olive.     "I have already been a worm in the Lynn family for a few years. I can't get here and be a lazy guy, can I? Besides, I can't be looked down by other people. I believe I can live happily even without them."     Olive nodded and said: "It's really nice of you to think in this way. The past life is the price and the lesson of you youth, and we should let It go."     Chole coveted and sighed. "But this lesson is too expensive."     "So, when you look for a boyfriend in the future again, you have to look with your eyes open, and learn to pass bad men ." Bad men couldn't guarantee anything even the most basic loyalty, so we didn't need them.     Chole touched Olive with her elbow, and her eyes glanced at the living room and lowered her voice. "Hey, Annie is four years old. Didn't she ask you, who is her father?"     Olive was silent. Annie had asked, but she didn't know how to answer.     On that day, she patiently said to her daughter after a thousand turns in her mind, "Because of some forced reasons, Mommy must leave your Daddy, and when Mommy left, your Daddy did not know the existence of Annie. If he knows, he will love Annie very much."     "Really?" Annie tilted her head. The four-year-old girl apparently couldn't fully understand the words, but the word "love Annie" was still comforting her young mind.     "Of course." Olive replied steadily.     "Will Daddy come back to find Mommy and Annie?"     "Yes, but when Mommy left, I forgot to tell Daddy where I would take Annie, so it would take some time to find us."     "Well, we are not easy to find, so Daddy will very cherish when he finds us." Annie comforted Olive like a grown up.     Who said that a single-parent child had a personality defect, Annie was actually quite sensible.     Olive found that she had a fever when she got up the next day, accompanied by a cough. So she bought an antipyretic medicine on her way to work.     It's the same way she used to deal with her cold and fever. She did not care about some minor problems and just let them heal slowly.     Only this time, it was a bit serious. It was because most time she was sleeping in the staff lounge, and the room was cold. When she woke up, she felt that she was a top-heavy person and could not afford the body. After eating a little during lunch time, she lay on her desk and wanted to take a break to continue her afternoon work.   Who knew she fell asleep for such a long time!     Until the sound of finger tapping on the desktop, she looked up and saw the coming person, and got up in a hurry, "Mr. Hoyle."     "Come to my office." Alan said with a blank expression.     Olive looked at the time and was shocked, it was more than three o'clock, and the afternoon work time had passed. Looking at the few female colleagues who were busy with the incumbent, there was no one to wake her up. They were really wish she made a mistake.     It's definitly because the face of this demon and the aura behind him. Olive was secretly worried in her heart, and she had to force her to follow him into the office, with laughter behind her.     Alan did not mention anything about her sleep. He took off his coat and went to the chair. The action was fluent.    Rich people didn't wear much clothes in winter., because they were surrounded by heating.     "There is a lack of manager in the marketing department. I want to promote internally. You have been there for nearly four years, are there suitable candidates to recommend?"      Olive thought about for a while and said. "Sabrina Parker and Adam Whitman are both good, and their performance is good. Sabrina Parker knows careful details. Adam Whitman is good at controlling the overall situation. The cases they have cooperated with have basically no problems, and they stay in the company longer than other people."     "I only need one name."     "I am sorry, this is a problem for me." Olive said honestly.     "Okay, I know." Alan waved his hand and motioned that she could go out, but when she went to the door, he added, "You give me a cup of coffee, no sugar."     When Olive came out, those eyes were gloating to see her sad face. Unfortunately, what disappointed them was that they only saw the expression of nothing.     Jealous women were really terrible creatures.     If she told them, she and the manager they admired had a four-year-old child, how many people will be shocked.     But at the moment, she had no plans to let Alan know.     Olive took the cup and walked into the tea room. She didn't expect the special assistant Dave Harrod was also there. He nodded and smiled, then went to the water dispenser and waited for the water to boil.     "Hey, have we seen each other before?" Dave held a teacup and stood behind her and asked thoughtfully.
