Ambush (2/2)

Olivia's office, 11:00 pm.

*Knock* *Knock*

"You may come in." After hearing a hard knock on the door, Olivia knew it was Ivan.

Ivan entered the office and looked at Olivia with a sparkle in his eyes, making her uncomfortable. "Are you still awake? You should be resting after everything you have been through recently, my partner."

Olivia keeps handling papers on her desk like she's working, but she's been thinking about Lucien the whole time.

"I will rest after we solve this problem with the mercenaries," Olivia responded in a neutral tone.

Ivan sat in the chair in front of Olivia's desk. "I also want to resolve this issue with the mercenaries. Since we will be taking control of the city, we should be the only ones in charge... only you and me."

Olivia has been aware of Ivan's feelings since they started interacting to take control of Portgreen and create the Guild.
