I’m Someone Else

Chapter 61

Before getting off work, Thomas deliberately checked Olivia’s thermos. “Not bad. You finished everything.”

“Huh.” She rolled her eyes. “You think I was scared to drink it?”

“Exactly!” He nodded. “Don’t all children hate bitter medicine and would make a fuss not to take them?”

“Are you calling me, your boss, a child, Thomas? I might just not pay you this month!” She pretended to be mad.

Then, they burst out laughing and headed to the basement parking lot together, where Thomas drove Olivia home. When they arrived at the entrance to her house, she gave him an intrigued look and asked, “Thomas, do you have a feeling that Molly likes you?”

“What?” He was shocked. Molly and I have only known each other for a few days. How can she already have feelings for me? That’s insane. Back then, I spent a month pursuing Felice, and she only agreed to be my girlfriend after I helped her with something.

“Is this some kind of joke?”

“Of course not!” She hurriedly denied it. After careful observation, she noticed Molly’s gaze was different when looking at Thomas. Her gaze was filled with affection and gentleness, something that would only appear when a woman looked at the man she adored. As a fellow woman, Olivia keenly caught that.

“I can see that she has feelings for you and would occasionally sneak a peek at you. Do you usually keep in touch with her after work?”

In the meantime, Thomas was surprised that the Most Beautiful Female Entrepreneur in Irieson would have such a gossipy side.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“No way. We don’t usually keep in touch after work.”

He was not lying because the first time he and Molly contacted each other privately was because she wanted to treat him to a meal as thanks. The second time they met was when he could not find a dance partner, so he asked her to save the show, but that was it. If those two encounters could make a woman fall for him, would that not be an exaggeration of his charm?

Yet, Olivia shook her head because she was sure of Molly’s feelings for him. But his reaction seems genuine. I guess he’s clueless after all!

Moreover, he had no intention of dating again because his eight-year relationship with Felice had mentally exhausted him. His only wish was to take good care of Chloe and his father.

Love? Forget it. That was a luxury that he could live without.

“Thank you for the ride!” Afterward, Olivia exited the car and waved goodbye to him before returning to her apartment.

Thomas looked at the time and noticed it was already 8.30PM. At first, he planned on going home to change his clothes, but there was no time for that, so he could only head to his appointment.

At Twilight Bar, the brightly lit place was filled with hormonal people madly swaying their bodies to the loud music. This was where the city’s white-collar citizens vent their emotions and the perfect place for the rich to find partners for one-night stands.

Twilight Bar was famous in Irieson. Though it was in a huge three-story building, only the first floor was open to the public, and only a few ever had the chance to head onto the second and third floors.

Thomas found a place to park his car and entered the building at precisely 9.00PM.

“Hey, handsome. What a drink?” When he arrived at the bar, he was immediately approached by a sexy woman in a mini-red dress. Once the woman parted her lips to speak, he was hit by a spellbinding aura.

“Excuse me, but I’m here for someone.” He only glanced at the woman and forced himself to endure his displeasure.

“Pfft. Suit yourself.” The woman rolled her eyes and left. She thought he was handsome, which was why she hit on him, but she did not expect he would be such a boring person.

“Mr. Clifford, you came!” Lester approached Thomas and urged, “Come on. I’ll lead you to the third floor. The boss has been waiting for a while.”

Nodding, Thomas followed Lester and headed straight toward the third floor. However, they were met with charming snickers just as they arrived on the second floor before they were surrounded by pretty women in mini dresses.

“Oh, my. Where did you get such a handsome man, Mr. Lush?”

“You’re leading him somewhere yourself. Seems like this cutie is an important man!”

“Obviously. He looks quite buffed, so he must be awesome in bed. How about a test drive?” Then, the group of hot girls started to surround him.

Lester hurriedly rejected them. “Shoo. Away with you. This man is the boss’ honored guest!”

Glancing at the group of enthusiastic women, Thomas deduced that behind their frivolous language were merely inexperienced women. It seemed like not all who worked at the bar did so for pleasure. Some resorted to it due to life circumstances, just like Chloe and this group of girls.

After they arrived at an office on the third floor, Lester knocked gently on the door. “Mr. Clifford, the boss is inside.”

Thomas pushed the door open and entered. Deep inside the room was an office desk, while a couch was placed in the middle of the room with a coffee table in front of it. Also, the entire room was permeated with a faint, pleasing lavender scent.

Sitting on the couch was a young woman in a light blue bodycon dress accentuating her shapely figure. Never would he thought the owner of Twilight Bar would be a woman, a gorgeous one at that! Even though the young woman’s head was bowed, he knew she had to be gorgeous because her seductive figure alone was enough to evoke the desire in countless men to conquer her.

At that moment, the woman looked up and met Thomas’ eyes. When their eyes met, he was dazed by her stunning beauty. Of all the women he had met, perhaps only Olivia could be compared to her looks.

“You must be Mr. Clifford, right?” The woman waved her hand to gesture for Lester to leave them alone. Then, she casually placed the accounting book she was flipping through to the side. “Please, have a seat.”

Thomas was not shy and sat on the other end of the couch.

“I heard you’ve previously had an upsetting experience at our bar, so as the owner, I solemnly apologize for that and hope you can put it behind you.” The pretty boss poured him a cup of tea and apologized sincerely.

He held a cigarette between his lips and asked, “That’s all in the past, and I didn’t take what happened to heart. May I know why you invited me here today?”

What he said surprised the woman because she was used to men trying their best to prolong their conversation. However, Thomas was different as he was straightforward and avoided a single

unnecessary word.
