Oops! My Escort Is A Mafia Don - Chapter 38: Chapter 38

Olivia replied, "He's paying me 100 thousand dollars a day. Listening to his arrangements doesn't seem so bad. Of course, it's not about the money. I'm just incredibly considerate."
Julian let out a low chuckle, got out of the car, and placed her suitcase in the trunk. Then, he gently nudged Olivia into the car. "Come on, I'll give you a ride."
Olivia looked at him, puzzled. "Why did you come back?"
Julian replied casually, "Took a wrong turn just now. The driver made a U-turn, and I saw you standing here. I came to ask what's going on."
She didn't doubt him but said, "Can you help me find a hotel a little farther from here?"
Julian nodded. "Sure. Just lean on me and take a nap. You barely closed your eyes last night."
Olivia's cheeks flushed. She instinctively pinched him, grumbling in her head, 'Whose fault do you think that is?'
But after the pinch, she leaned against him. She was really exhausted from the night before. Her whole body still felt weak, and her head was cloudy from sleep deprivation.
Olivia didn't expect to fall into such a deep sleep. When she finally woke up, she found herself lying in a minimalist yet cozy room. It didn't feel like a hotel. Though the decor was simple, there were subtle signs that someone lived there.
Olivia glanced at her phone and suddenly bolted upright in shock, thinking, 'I slept for twelve hours? Seems that guy indeed exhausted me last night.'
As she got out of bed, she noticed her clothes had been changed. She was now wearing a white nightdress with lace trimming on the sleeves and hem—something that looked like it came out of a little girl's fantasy wardrobe.
She went to the bathroom, freshened up, and stepped out into the hallway. She was on the second floor of a modern, minimalist villa.
From the far end of the corridor to her left, she could vaguely hear voices—one of them a low, lazy male voice. It was Julian's.
Curious, Olivia walked toward the sound. The door was slightly ajar. She paused outside, waiting for a while. After a moment, the voices stopped, and she assumed Julian finished his call. She pushed the door open and stepped in.
Julian sat at a desk, unmoving, his eyes fixed on a spot ahead of him, like he was deep in thought. She assumed he was zoning out.
Without a second thought, she padded over and draped herself over his back, wrapping her arms around him and resting her body against him in a lazy sprawl.
Her voice, still soft and husky, brushed against his ear as her lips playfully grazed his earlobe. "Didn't I tell you to take me to a hotel? Why did you bring me here instead? Where even is this?"
Julian's whole body stiffened, and his ears visibly turned red.
"What's got you so lost in thought?" she murmured. "I'm literally all over you, and you're still spacing out?"
Her hands started to wander across his chest. "Come on. Pay attention."
Julian finally moved. He reached back and caught her hand firmly, his voice low but laced with restraint. "Be good, baby. I'm in a meeting. Let's continue this later, alright?"
Olivia instantly froze. She lifted her head to look and saw a laptop on the desk, the screen still on, showing several shocked foreign faces staring back at her.
Pure mortification swept over her, and her face turned bright red. "Y-You are in a meeting? Why didn't I hear anything?"
Julian calmly removed a single Bluetooth earbud from his other ear.
"You were only wearing one?" Olivia hissed.
She complained to herself, 'If he'd been wearing both, I'd have seen it when I leaned in to bite his ear. I wouldn't have made such a damn fool of myself.'
Julian shrugged and replied, "I heard something outside, so I took one earbud out to listen. I didn't expect you to be so into me. You completely lost control the moment you saw me."
Olivia immediately let go of him, covered her face in embarrassment, and bolted out of the room.
Behind her, Julian's deep, amused laughter echoed down the hall.
