I’m Someone Else

Chapter 248

Chapter 248

Ding! The elevator halted on the first floor with a crisp sound, and Olivia stomped out while holding Thomas’ hand.

“What the hell! Look, what’s happening there?”

“No way?”

“Oh my God, am I hallucinating?!”

“Miss Pearson is actually holding hands with a man! Unbelievable. My heart is breaking, call an ambulance!”

“I want all the information on that man in three minutes. I want to kill him! Damn it, how dare he hold hands with Miss Pearson!”

“There’s no need to wait three minutes. I can tell you now that that person is Miss Pearson’s driver, and his name is Thomas. Go ahead and kill him!”

“What? That person is Thomas? Wow, it’s true! Well, I was just kidding earlier…” The entire first floor of the Pearson Group headquarters was filled with the sounds of shattered hearts from male employees.

However, Olivia paid no attention to the surrounding gossip as she had no mental capacity for it. Her mind was solely focused on defending Thomas. It was only when they reached the car that she realized she was still holding his hand! So, she quickly released his hand as if she was jolted by electricity and her face turned as red as a March peach blossom.

As soon as Thomas opened the car door, Olivia instantly hopped in out of embarrassment. It was a rather awkward situation that she had unconsciously held Thomas’ hand, and what’s more, she had held it for quite some time! Meanwhile, Thomas drove them to Northpine Villa. It was already afternoon,

and even if he went to Keyshire Property, most employees would be off work in a few hours. It would be better to rest well today and go there tomorrow.

Moreover, he needed to practice his leg technique. On one hand, he wanted to assess his recovery progress, and on the other hand, he aimed to break through his own limitations. If he wanted to single- handedly confront the three major families, he couldn’t afford to be careless. Thomas was like a block of wood who didn’t appreciate the countless beautiful women around him, but instead, his mind was preoccupied with these matters!

The instant they arrived at Northpine Villa, Olivia, was akin to a little bunny, as she hastily scurried back to her bedroom and avoided Thomas. Meanwhile, Thomas remained in a daze. He had everything planned out. If those individuals didn’t return those assets, he would take action and fight until they did. Unfortunately, before he could make his move, he was brought out of the meeting room by Olivia, who had inadvertently disrupted his plans!

At the same time, Olivia’s face was written with worry as she lay on the large bed in her bedroom. “Was I too aggressive at Pearson Group just now? Did it leave a bad impression on Thomas? Will he think that I’m some feral woman? He won’t, right? After all, I got so angry because of the insults that were hurled right at him. Well, forget about it. It’s useless to dwell on it. Thomas is not someone that superficial! Let’s focus on more important matters!”

A woman in love would often be afraid of leaving a negative impression on the person of their affection. She hoped to appear flawless in Thomas’ eyes. When she thought of that, she pushed herself up onto a sitting position on the bed and reached for her phone before placing it next to her ear.

“Miss Pearson, what are your orders?”

“I just sent you the names of the five companies on your phone. Give instructions to suppress those five companies for me! I want to ensure they have no place in Irieson! Ideally, I want them to go

bankrupt.” Olivia spat in anger. How dare they insult her beloved man? She was well aware that they wouldn’t understand the magnitude of their actions if she didn’t show them what consequences they would face! That was precisely why she was going through with her threat.

Keyshire Property was the dominant force in Irieson’s real estate industry. Although they had lost half of their business, their position was still strong. Who in Irieson would dare to disrespect them? Thus, suppressing the five subsidiary companies under the Pearson Group was merely a simple task.

Olivia had made up her mind. This time, she not only wanted them to return what they had taken from her, but she also wanted them to suffer. There they were acting all high and mighty earlier. That would teach them! Her business wasn’t something that could be easily snatched from her grasp!

“Miss Pearson, be rest assured. I guarantee the task will be completed!”

The satisfied Olivia then ended the call. She was no ordinary person as she had efficiently managed the entire Pearson Group at a young age. She managed to maintain its original scale despite resistance from various forces. So, how could she ever be merely a gentle and sweet girl?

Olivia was confident. She wanted to crush those five companies and doing so in two days would be more than enough!

Ten minutes later, Olivia’s phone rang. The caller was the employee from Keyshire Property to whom she had given instructions earlier. “Miss Pearson, everything has been arranged. The recent development of those five companies is going well. We have already reached out to several partners who had the intention to sign new contracts with those companies. Now that we have intervened, as long as nothing unexpected happens, those businesses will be ours.”

“Good! Remember, it’s fine if we don’t make a profit out of this, but we have to snatch all their clients away from them! I want these five companies to disappear within Irieson forever!”

“Understood, Miss Pearson.”

Olivia had truly gone all out this time. Once a woman becomes determined, there would be no stopping her. She provided some additional instructions over the phone. Finally, she hung up and checked the time. It was dinner time, so she got up to cook. Although she didn’t have any appetite, she couldn’t possibly allow Thomas to go hungry.

“Clap! Clap! Clap!” Snapping sounds echoed from Thomas’ bedroom. He was practicing the leg technique that he had improved, and his forehead was covered in sweat. After a while, Thomas released a long breath. His physical recovery wasn’t ideal. It was faster compared to an average person, but slower than he had expected. It seemed that he would need to resort to stimulating methods with medication.

Moreover, his lower body strength hadn’t improved at all. This was a big deal to Thomas. When he thought about it, it was the first time he had such an urgent desire to enhance his own strength.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

“Come in.”

Olivia opened the door and peeked inside before greeting Thomas, “It’s time for dinner.”

“Great!” He was indeed hungry. After all, he had been practicing the leg technique for a long time, which consumed a lot of energy.

She hardly ate anything herself as she focused on serving him most of the time. At this moment, she had shed the image as the Most Beautiful Female Entrepreneur in Irieson and appeared like a gentle and devoted wife who was fully invested in her man.

Thomas smiled wryly. He was indeed hungry, but he couldn’t eat all of that. Olivia had piled his bowl up with food like a mountain in the blink of an eye. Still, he had no choice but to force himself to finish them all. If he refused, it would definitely spoil Olivia’s mood. After dinner, she bid goodnight to Thomas and went upstairs to take a shower.
