Lingering Doting Marriage: Big Boss, Little Sweet Heart

Chapter 1537: Chapter 1537: Not Breaking Up, Are We Waiting for the New Year?

“The main thing missing was green onions. I had just bought tofu and was looking for green onions when I got recognized. No choice, I had to pay and leave. Otherwise, given my unkempt appearance and the injuries on my face, the media would have had a field day.”

The media had already been merciless in revealing that she was the one who got dumped ruthlessly. If they caught her looking disheveled, they would write an even more pitiful story!

Although she was indeed in a pitiful state, she didn’t have a special fondness for garnering public sympathy.

It was just a breakup, and she didn’t want to act as if it was the end of the world!

Enna Clark noticed her bringing up the news and pursed her lips, hesitating before quietly asking, “Olivia, about that…”

Olivia Lewis glanced at her and immediately knew what she wanted to ask. She waved her hand nonchalantly and said, “You’ve seen the news too?”

“You and Young Master Sinclair…”

Olivia nonchalantly picked up a piece of fish fillet, stuffed it in her mouth, and with her cheeks puffed out, she said forthrightly, “We split.”

“How come?” Enna was a bit surprised.

Adam Sinclair didn’t seem like the type to break up with Olivia. Having observed how Adam had been interacting with Olivia these past days, Enna could tell that Adam was serious about her.

“It wasn’t like the news said that he dumped me, I was the one who wanted to break up.” Olivia’s eyelids drooped, hiding the emotions in her eyes. Her voice gave nothing away as she stated simply, “The reason is simple, I don’t think I’m destined to marry into a wealthy family. Since I can’t marry in, and I have no intention of being a mistress, and his mother even came to find me, what choice did I have other than to break up? Should I have waited around until New Year?”

She did feel something, it did hurt.

But compared to the quick pain of ripping off a band-aid, she feared death by a thousand cuts more; the kind of torment that sliced into you slowly until it killed you with pain.

She knew all about the Sinclair family’s fortune; entering into it would be very difficult for her.

Getting Adam’s mother to accept her was even harder than reaching the heavens.

After weighing the pros and cons for a long time, even though breaking up with Adam was hard, it seemed easier than the impossible.

So, she chose to break up.

It was better for everyone that way.

Although her heart would certainly ache at first, with time it would heal.

Thinking this, Olivia’s heart clenched tightly, a vague emotion spreading through her chest, making her throat feel rough and itchy with acidity.

Dammit.

She had expected to feel bad, but she hadn’t anticipated it would hurt this much!

Olivia took a deep breath, pushing down the sourness in her throat, blinked her eyes, lifted her glass, tossed it back in one gulp, then slap the glass down on the table with gusto, “Come on, have a drink with me.”

Enna lifted her glass; she poured herself another one and moaned exasperatedly, “My God, it’s just a breakup, but do you know how many ‘consoling’ calls I’ve received since the news came out? Geez, this is the first time I’m realizing how extensive my network is in the industry.”

It wasn’t just female stars calling to ‘show concern’ for her; even male stars got in on the ‘concern’.

Of course, in a place as practical as the entertainment industry, aside from the ‘concerned’ calls, once they found out she was single, several endorsement deals she was discussing all called her to say that their previous talks didn’t count anymore. They suggested they should negotiate again and reconsider whether they wanted to use her.

All because her ‘Sugar Daddy’ was about to get a new favorite.

Sunny was so busy trying to clean up the mess for her that she was at her wits’ end and wished she could strangle Olivia.
