Chapter 321

Unlike the uncertainty on Lauren's face in the elevator, Oliver was in a surprisingly good mood—like, really chill and happy. Especially when he saw her practically bounce inside, the smile on his face just couldn't be held back anymore. The onlookers and reporters who hadn't left yet all looked like they'd seen a ghost. Really? You still wanna say there's nothing between you two? Still not admitting it? Of course, Oliver didn't say they weren't involved. He just didn't answer any of the questions. But this current version of him—smiling and soft—was a total 180 from his usual icy vibes. No wonder everyone around was thrown off. Even Jameson, whose face was too swollen to open his eyes well, looked genuinely stunned. He was actually kind of regretting things now. Regretting that he hadn't treated Lauren better. If only he'd been nicer... maybe she would've caved a little. He wasn't even expecting crazy perks like what that dead rich guy left her, but money wouldn't have been a problem
