Time Traveller

"What are you saying, Miss Jolene Yu?"

Olivia rolled her eyes before she raised her chin, pointing to the man on her screen. "If you are not interested, I can go for him. He is my type, you know?"

Seraphina only opened her mouth in shock. For the young woman to talk to her as if they were chummy was something else, let alone for her to speak those words out?

How did she even...

Right now, Seraphina seemed to understand the relationship between her colleague at work and the heir of Yu Business.

Seraphina wouldn't be surprised learning that Jolene Yu, the dumb woman had been hitting on the male god actor since she got into the industry while it was apparent that he was not interested.

Or... was something really going on between the both of them?

For Miss Jolene Yu to be able to shamelessly ask Blade Chen to help her speak to the director for a role at the present drama, then, it certainly meant something was going on between them.

And somehow, it didn't sit right with Seraphina.

Olivia could read Seraphina's expression. She said, "Miss Seraphina Xu, you must understand that I am interested in Mr Blade Chen, he is a very sweet man. I will keep trying now that I know I have little to no competition." Olivia smiled, "Right, Miss Seraphina?"

Seraphina nodded before awkwardly saying, putting off her phone's screen to stop the weird woman from continually gawking at it. "Well, yes. Blade Chen and I are merely acquaintances. We have no feelings for each other. I care little to what you have in mind."

"Really?" Olivia smiled sweetly while her mind bittered as she thought.

'Stupid. Should you not notice the 'fate' technique the author brings for you both? How do you both always end up being in the same place?'

'Have you both ever wondered why sometimes, rain falls unexpectedly just because you both are together?'

'Goodness!'

"I will keep trying to gain his attention then," Olivia added, her tone intentionally meaningful and hopeful.

Seraphina wanted to remind the young miss that the young miss already had a fiancé, but Seraphina stopped, guessing the young miss's engagement with Mr Wang might not be born out of affection.

While Mr Wang was a founder and president of a now famous tech company and the fifth son of Wang Family, Miss Jolene was the heir of the Yu Business.

It was possible that there was an arrangement between their families but still, it was unlikely since there was no way Miss Jolene's family would allow Jolene to wed someone from Wang Family.

It was obvious that Miss Jolene was the black sheep of the family.

Clearing her thoughts from everything, Seraphina stood up. "I will be on my way now. I have to get to work in an hour."

Olivia nodded, still in her seat and not willing to give anyone an escort.

Seraphina who was waiting for an escort saw that Jolene was not doing anything.

What could Jolene have to be this proud?

Just because Jolene was traditionally the heir of Yu Business didn't mean she was.

As an heir, wasn't she meant to be taking over the business instead of her uncle and her adopted sister?

Her stepsister or adopted sister, Allison Yu apparently would replace their father.

'Hmmph. She is so ugly and annoying.'

"Miss Jolene Yu, I like the fact that you and Mr Wang are rather not close—we would be able to find where my sister is."

Olivia stood up. "I think I need to give you an escort, Miss Seraphina."

"Oh, really?"

Olivia came nearer to Seraphina almost immediately without prior notice, "While I am going to help you with finding your sister's whereabouts, I will like to remind you that the villa you are in belongs to the same man you are accusing. He is nothing but a suspect, until I find out his involvement, do not speak bad of him."

Sweats were starting to build on Seraphina's face but she smiled it off. "If you say so, Miss Jolene Yu. I will head—no need to escort me."

Olivia looked at the female lead blankly before saying, "Go. I wasn't planning to escort you. Besides, I will let my servant send you a message about what we talked about," she reminded, "the more powerful technique."

The exact moment Seraphina was done with Olivia, she stomped out of the room with a small humph.

'That ugly woman. I only came to you because I had no other choice.'

'But how is she so smart at the same time...even...her words...'

'Her speech carries an air of elegance and formality that seems out of place. I can't help but wonder if she's a time traveller from the Qing Dynasty, but still...it's not my first time meeting her. Why is she so different now?'

Before Seraphina could take another step after the door had been closed, she heard a maid's voice inside.

"Miss Jolene, you have a call from the Fifth Young Master."

Seraphina stood there, intrigued as she was curious to know their relationship.

Meanwhile, Olivia looked at the phone that was with her maid and then she collected it.

'I never knew I had one.'

Holding the phone in her hand she stared at the screen and at the name that was stored on it, 'Husband.'

'As if,' Olivia snorted.

She asked Patricia, "How do I—" the phone stopped ringing and started again, "...receive this?"

"Why...are you asking me how to receive a call, Miss Jolene?" Patricia gasped, the same moment Seraphina gasped outside the door. "You just drag that button to the right, Miss Jolene."

Olivia nodded and did the same and surprisingly, she heard the young man's voice from the phone.

"Hello, Miss Jolene," Sebastian's voice rang to her ears.

"Is this the young man?" Olivia asked out loud, trying to keep her amusement to herself while Patricia's eyes were still widened in surprise since the moment she learnt that the young miss could not even pick a call.

How concerning was her amnesia?
