Watch Me Win Alpha (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 32

Chapter 32

Gai also stood up straight as well. “I’ll call her one right now.”

“Not safe.” Olivia’s voice was quieter this time, more cautious.

“She’s not fully conscious. Maybe it’s better if we book her a

room nearby.”

I stared at her.

“Oh,” I said slowly. “How thoughtful. You’re really looking out

for her, aren’t you?”

She flinched at my tone, clearly unsure if I was serious or

mocking her. I didn’t clarify.

But she had a point. The hotel would at least keep Jess out of

further trouble.

“Fine,” I said. “You handle it.”

Olivia blinked. “Me?”

“Yes. You suggested it. You stay with her. I have no intention of

playing nurse tonight.”

She took a half–step back. “Actually -I think a cab might still

work…”

But it was too late.

Gai had already nudged Olivia gently toward the passenger

door of my car. Before she could protest again, he opened the

door and practically deposited her into the seat.

“Have a good night, Alpha,” he said quickly, slipping away like a

coward.

I closed the back door behind Jess and got in beside her.

The car started. And silence fell like a weight.

Olivia sat perfectly straight in the front seat, her hands folded in

her lap, eyes on the road.

Jess mumbled something incoherent and slumped sideways.

Then, as we drove past the bridge, she went completely limp

and dropped into my lap.

Her hair spilled across my trousers. Her arm dangled uselessly

off the seat edge.

I didn’t move.

Olivia didn’t say a word.

But I could feel her watching, staring straight into the mirror.

Her gaze pinned to us the entire time.

Chapter 32

Olivia’s POV

I peeked into the rearview mirror again. Jess had just “lost her

balance,” slumping against Alexander like she had no control

over her limbs.

But Alexander didn’t even flinch. He caught her with one hand,

as effortlessly as if swatting away a leaf. His jaw was tight, the

muscle twitching under his skin.

“Stop it,” he said sharply. “You’re not drunk.”

His voice was like ice cracking.

Jess froze for a moment before lifting her head, her lips

trembling. “Why are you being so cruel to me?”

I opened the center console and pulled out a packet of tissues,

stretching one out toward her.

But before Jess could take it, Alexander reached out and pushed

my hand back without saying a word.

That small gesture… I don’t know why, but it ticked me off. Not

because he stopped me. But because just like Ethan–he could

be so cold when he decided someone was no longer worth his

time.

Cheating, lying, stone–hearted. Men, I swear.

The rest of the ride passed in silence. Tense, heavy silence.

When we arrived at the hotel, Alexander opened the door on

his side, got out without a glance back, and walked straight into

the lobby like Jess didn’t exist.

I was left alone with her.

I turned toward her and forced a small smile. “Should I book you

a room? There’s a guest desk just inside.”

Jess wiped under her eyes and shook her head. “No need. I’ll just

sleep in your room.“”

My brows lifted slightly. “Oh… okay!” There was a spare bed in

the suite. I wasn’t about to start a fight over it.

We got out together and walked through the hotel’s rotating

doors. As we entered the lobby, I noticed something that made

me pause.
