CHAPTER 041
OLIVIA’S POV
Wait! Why was I suddenly feeling like a villain? Because this is what villains do.
I should probably abort the plan and leave everything in peace.
…Nah.
That’s what I would have done if she didn’t make me lose my child. Some people. might think I’m acting like a villainess, but this is just a small tip compared to what she did. So, now I wait and watch.
Should I add this to his food too? It would be nice to see Adrian jump around like an idiot. I didn’t even realize that I was smiling. But then, he might think it’s from the head chef, and that could get her fired. I’ll just stick to Dora. She’s the main target anyway.

Just as I was about to sit, I heard Dora’s voice.
“Don’t even think about it. That’s my place.”
Yes! It worked.
“Oh, sorry about that,” I said sweetly, forcing a polite smile. “Please, have a seat.”

“Just feeling a little hot,” Dora replied, fanning herself with her hand.

Milk spilled all over her expensive dress and onto the floor. She chugged the milk desperately, her breathing ragged. By the time she finally stopped to catch her breath, she had almost finished the entire gallon.
I needed to act fast.
I caught Dora’s wrist in mid–air, gripping it tightly before she could make contact.
