Watch Me Win Alpha (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 158

Chapter 158

I shook my head in disgust at Chloe’s cruelty. How could she be so evil and unremorseful? She had taken a human life, one of the worst sins that you could commit. She was going to curse the Hawthrone family… maybe she already had. Sadness for Russell Lewis and his family swirled in my stomach until I was queasy from it. Tears pricked at the back of my eyes as I thought about his life that had been cruelly taken from him.

Richard was slowing down and parked in front of an upscale

restaurant.

We had arrived at the location for Alexander’s blind date. Quickly, I pulled out my headphones and stuffed them back into my bag. I couldn’t get the thought of Russell Lewis out of my head. He had just been a boy when he was murdered. I wiped a tear from my cheek and tried to pull myself together.

“Ms. Wright will be waiting for you at the hostess table at the front of the restaurant,” I told Alexander in a quiet voice.

His grim face changed when he looked at me. If I didn’t know any better, I would say that his eyes were full of concern. “Are you alright, Olivia? What happened?”

“I’m fine,” I said briskly, brushing him off.

He frowned and pulled/back from me. “Fine. Well, you have to come with me.”

“No.” I crossed my arms in defiance.

After what I just learned, something as trivial as joining my boss on a

“Yes. You don’t have to sit at the same table, but you will get a table near my date and watch.” His expression hardened. “Robert will make sure that you come in.”

I glanced at the driver’s seat, and Alexander’s bodyguard gave me an apologetic look.

“Fine,” I said and crossed my arms tightly across my chest. “But I’m ordering whatever I want using the company card.”

Good.

Let him watch me enjoy myself with another man when he was flaunting his date right in front of me. It was only fair.

Soon. I tucked into my meal. I had ordered three delectable dishes and was planning to take the rest home for leftovers. As I sipped my red wine and cut into my Filet mignon, my phone rang. Usually, I wouldn’t answer my phone inside a restaurant, but I didn’t care about appearing rude tonight. The news of Chloe admitting to killing Russell Lewis and Alexander forcing me to watch his date had made social norms seem unimportant.

My stomach flipped when I saw that Ava was the one calling me.

“Did you listen to the voice recording?” she said, bypassing a greeting.

“Yes, I can’t believe that she confessed to killing her high school friend.” I said in a quiet voice. “Do you think it’s enough to go to the police with?” I took a bite of my steak and almost moaned at the taste.

“I’m not sure,” Ava admitted. “Chloe’s fancy lawyers could argue that we had manipulated the recording in some way. I don’t think it’s irrefutable evidence.”

My shoulders sagged. I had been afraid of thát.
