Chapter 298

Tyler stopped asking. He had lost interest.

Olivia went to the Pearces' event with Ana. The hotel where it was held was luxurious and full of people.

Ana was their VIP, and family members greeted them warmly as soon as they arrived. Olivia didn’t know who these people were, but someone called out to Ana, which made Olivia think they might be Claude's parents.

Ana smiled a little when she saw them, not seeming too surprised to be greeted this way. “Katrina, Jordan.”

They shook hands enthusiastically, seemingly close. But the warm moment was brief, and they quickly let go of each other's hands. Katrina said, “Thank you for coming, Ana. The 20th anniversary is also to celebrate Claude taking charge of Yancey Bank.”

Ana seemed a bit proud and not too excited, just giving a faint smile and saying, “We're

too excited, just giving a faint smile and saying, family, so no need for such formal welcomes.”

Jordan Pearce, the president of Yancey Bank and Claude's father, sighed. “Claude wasn't thinking clearly back then.”

Everyone felt the tension when he said that. Even Olivia herself felt awkward.

But Ana quickly moved on and said, “Congratulations on the 20th anniversary,” ending the topic right there.

Katrina and Jordan didn’t say anything more, and everyone around, dressed up nicely, didn’t want to dwell on past issues.

“Let's go, Ana. Let's sit over there.”

Naturally, Ana followed the couple's lead. Olivia, a bit lost in thought, was noticed by Katrina who asked, “You must be

Olivia?

Startled, Olivia looked to Ana for guidance.

Ana made the introductions, “This is Mr. Jordan and Ms. Katrina. This is your first time meeting them, isn't it?”

Olivia turned to them and greeted politely, “Hello, Mr. Jordan and Ms. Katrina.”

They looked pleased to meet her.

“Tyler's wife is quite polite and well-mannered,” Katrina mentioned to Ana.

Ana agreed, smiling, “She’s fine, definitely polite.”

Olivia wasn't good at small talk, especially on such an occasion. After a brief exchange, they focused on leading Ana away and didn't linger on Olivia.

Following behind, Olivia's attention was caught by a familiar voice. Just a few steps. ahead, she heard, “Uncle, Aunty.”

Looking in the direction of the voice, she saw Sophie and Jacob standing there, holding hands.

“Olivia?” Sophie called out to her.
