Olivia and Chloe glanced at themselves, their brows slowly pulled down and in their head they knew they would be kicked out as the two security guards who had blocked their part gazed at them indifferently.‘Was this why you disagreed at first?’ Chloe asked Olivia with her eyes saying the words.‘Yes, this was what I was avoiding,’ Olivia responded with her eyes and glanced at the security guards. ‘But I can’t let this lovely dress go to waste, Lawrence has to see me in them, so leave the guards to me.’Olivia flashed Chloe a smile and Chloe smiled back, trusting her friend, perhaps she has not been to a gathering like this, but Olivia had. ‘Leave this to me.’ Olivia mouthed and turned to the security guards.Raising her chin, she parted her lips to speak. “How dare you both block a lady?” She put on a serious face, glancing at the two of them.“Do you belong to the party?” One asked glancing at their outfit.Olivia scoffed and ran her hand through her hair. “Where else could we belon

This time, tears clustered in Olivia’s eyes, she had come to see him, she knew about the risk, but she came anyways, but now--- “Honey, what is wrong?” The lady who had come with him walked close to Lawrence and linked arms with him immediately she came and Olivia glanced at their arms. “It’s nothing to worry about.” Lawrence quickly flashed her a smile, a smile Olivia noticed he had never shown her since she returned from Hawaii.
