Chapter 236: Wasnโt This Admitting You Had a Sugar Mommy?
Alexander had never even watched โA Little Spark of Jeopardy.โ Vance had made up that story on their way there. But Oliviaโs gaze at Alexander turned strange after hearing his explanation.
A good-looking guy like Alexander, sharing a similar background to a character kept by a wealthy sponsor? Wasnโt that basically implying heโd been kept by a rich woman? Dude, are you for real? Saying this in front of a live audience? Wonโt your agency cut ties with you?
Alexander didnโt realize how Vanceโs words had backfired. He only noticed Oliviaโs strange expression. Olivia glanced at the camera and decided to help him a little.
โOh? So you moved from the countryside to the city? That does match up.โ This is the best I can do for you!
Alexander had no clue what Penelopeโs story was.
โYeah.โ
โDoes your company know about this?โ Olivia asked.
Alexander nodded, following Vanceโs instructions. Olivia patted his shoulder with a meaningful expression. โThe past is doneโฆ Take care of yourself.โ
Her eyes scanned his sharp features and perfect figure. Suddenly, Olivia felt she understood why wealthy women indulged in these things. Once she earned her billions, sheโd dump Alexander and get herself a handsome guy too! Her benchmark? Eugeneโs looks, of course!
Alexander didnโt understand why Oliviaโs attitude had changed, but her concern warmed him. It pleased him.
โMoving forward, as my senior, Iโll need your guidance, so no need to be polite.โ Alexander handed her gold.
Olivia got the hint. This was a bribe! What a thoughtful guy!
โAbsolutely!โ
As long as she got paid, they were practically family now!
Seeing Oliviaโs delighted expression as she held the gold, Alexander chuckled softly. How had I never noticed her obsession with money before?
โOlivia! Have some water!โ Jared hurried over after the recording ended, enthusiastically handing her a bottle.

Alexander caught the moment and glanced at Jared. This was the guy Olivia had spent Valentineโs Day with, eating at a street stall. His expression gradually darkened.
Suddenly, a bottle of water was thrust into Alexanderโs hand, interrupting his line of sight.
โHere, you worked hard last night. Drink some water,โ Olivia said with a bright smile, casually offering it to him. Since sheโd just gotten free gold earlier, it only seemed right to return the gesture.
Alexanderโs expression immediately settled as he accepted the bottle.
โThanks.โ
Soon enough, Vance arrived, walking quickly towards them. When Jared spotted him, he leaned closer to Olivia and whispered, โOlivia, I didnโt expect Mr. Vance to be here today.โ
Alexander shifted his gaze to Jared murmuring by Oliviaโs ear, and his mood turned stormy once again. โMs. Carter, good to see you here,โ Vance greeted, putting on his usual polished front.
Olivia shot him a quick smirk. โCanโt you see?โ
Jared stood frozen, shocked. โOlivia! Please, calm down! Thatโs one of the biggest names in the entertainment industry! Arenโt you afraid of making him angry?โ
Vance, however, thought Ms. Carterโs boldness was unmatched!
โMs. Carter, since youโve already worked with Eugene, whatโs your impression of him? Heโs just joined our company,โ Vance asked, taking the chance to promote Alexanderโs new identity.
โGreat choice. Heโs good-looking and smart,โ Olivia replied, mentally adding, and surprisingly thoughtful too!
