Chapter 181
Nonetheless, Thomas is still so young. That kind of air is unattainable for someone his age. Even if that is just a coincidence, there is no way he can fight as well as the patriarch. After that thought, Shadow climbed the stairs to the second floor while Thomas was in the kitchen. When she located Olivia’s bedroom, she went inside and looked around. “She’s a rich kid, after all. Look at this place. It’s so clean.” She later realized he had replaced the windows but saw nothing amiss.
Then, she heard a knock at the door and saw him walk into the room, handing her a box of salves. “I made this today. Apply it to your abdomen, and the swelling should go down.” He bought the herbs earlier, and finding himself with nothing better to do after Olivia returned to the Pearson Residence, he decided to make some salve. Moreover, he knew Leslie had kicked her the day before, so he anticipated her abdomen would be swollen.
“Okay.” Even though she wasn’t hurt, Shadow accepted the salve that Thomas handed to her. I pray that my wits will deceive him. As long as he is unaware that I am an imposter, it’s highly unlikely he’ll ever figure it out.
After that, he said good night and returned to his room.
The night passed quietly, and she woke up early to make breakfast. She prepared the foods Olivia enjoyed cooking and made them taste exactly like Olivia’s. It was clear that Shadow had put a great deal of effort into trying to imitate Olivia. Then, Shadow looked at him and smiled sweetly. “Is it good?”
Since he wasn’t a picky eater, he responded, “It is.” A beautiful lady made me breakfast right after I woke up. What more could I ask for?
Following breakfast, they made their way to Keyshire Property.
On the other hand, Terrence had two missions for Shadow. First, she would deplete Keyshire Property’s resources and redirect them to Pearson Group. Keyshire Property was a profitable
company, and if their plan worked, the Pearsons could be the Irieson real estate industry leaders. By then, he anticipated that every family would attempt to curry favor with them. Second, she must assassinate Thomas. He was powerful, so killing him head-on was impossible, but she could easily poison him using her disguise. Hence, no matter how powerful he was, he would not be wary of those closest to him.
As usual, upon his arrival at the office, he plopped down on the couch and played on his phone out of boredom while she prepared for a meeting. Nonetheless, she told Molly to stay in the office that day. Before Shadow took on the mantle of Olivia, Terrence made her go through some files. They were records of people close to Olivia, and Molly was one of them. Since Molly has a good rapport with Thomas, I cannot allow her to follow me, or she will discover my plan.
Meanwhile, Molly was puzzled over why Olivia wouldn’t let her tag along, but she refrained from asking since Olivia was the boss.
Soon after, Shadow arrived at the meeting room, where she was greeted by two men and a woman who had been sent by Terrence. Then, one of the men handed her a business transfer agreement, which she signed without even perusing.
“As expected from you, Miss Olivia,” the man said sycophantically. This contract is worth billions, and I couldn’t believe she would just hand it over to the Pearson Family. With this, our real estate company will be at the top of its field in this city. Who says all girls think about all the time are their boyfriends? She proves them wrong, and she cares about her family.
However, these people had no idea that Olivia had been switched out. If this were the genuine Olivia, she would never give away this multi-billion business.
After that, Shadow frowned and said coldly, “If nothing else, leave.” She hated talking to these glib- tongued devils, and the sight of this man alone disgusted her.
“There’s something else, Miss Olivia.” The man looked at the woman, and the woman whipped out a file from her bag and handed it to Shadow.
Shadow hissed when she saw the file, perused it, and exhaled sharply. What? Master demands immediate control of 50% of the company’s operations? Since the business in question is not mine, I won’t get involved here, but doesn’t it seem a little bit hasty? Today is my first day posing as Olivia, and he wants half the company’s business right away?
Nonetheless, her silence made the man impatient. “Stop reading it, Miss Olivia. Whatever happens, the contract will not be altered.” You are a member of the Pearson Family, as is your company, so hurry up and sign it!
Afterward, she signed the papers and left the room.
“Good show, Miss Olivia,” the man said.
On the other hand, Shadow returned to the office and stole glances at Thomas. After Molly left to make some copies, it was just him and her in the office.
Then, he put his phone down and placed a thermos on the table. “Time for your meds.”
As soon as he heard this, confusion filled her eyes. What meds? However, she noticed he was staring at her, so she finished the meds quickly in case he suspected her.
He waited for her to finish her drink before returning to the couch to fiddle with his phone. She can’t stop taking these meds. If she skips doses for more than three days, the poison in her body will counteract these meds by turning them into poison. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Meanwhile, Shadow was taken aback by the sensations she was experiencing in her body. This is no ordinary med! Suddenly, she felt a wave of warmth spread from her abdomen to her veins, and it was
as if she were drenched in something soothing. Is this an ancient formula? It’s used to get rid of frost aura, it seems. Wait a minute… Sh*t! He uses these meds to turn the poison in Olivia’s body into something else. “Damn you, Thomas. What have you done? I’ll kill you!” she muttered.
