Chapter 176

The man’s joyful voice boomed through the phone once more. “Don’t worry about the safe and sleepwell. It won’t be gone. Even if it is, I’ll send you a new one!”

“Go back to bed!” After that, Olivia hung up angrily.

Soon, she saw the few workers pushing the safe on a cart into the studio. They were shouting outdirections at each other while replaceing the right place to put down the safe. “Where should we place thisitem?”

How am I supposed to know?

Taking a deep breath, she stepped into the studio and made space in her office for the safe.

Just now, when she saw the glaring money tree, she was at a loss, replaceing it both frustrating and funny.

The instant Kate arrived, she saw the delivery men yelling and moving the gargantuan item into thestudio, which was really funny in her eyes. “Is that what your senior got you?”

Olivia nodded. “Yeah. He had a patient who was working in the diamond business, so he got themoney tree ordered and delivered. The price tag of this tree is probably equivalent to the annual pay ofthe craftsman.”

Kate smiled. “Wow, you’re his true love then!”

She received a stare from Olivia. “Stop that nonsense. He’s my senior.”

Moving on, Kate rubbed her chin and started thinking. “Tsk, tsk, why don’t you leave someone here atnight to guard the safe? I plan to come over at night to break the glass and steal a few diamonds.”

Smiling, Olivia egged her on, “Yeah, you should try it.”

“What?”

“I thought you wanted to break the glass?”

“What? Do you think I can’t?” As she spoke, she knocked on the safe, and the next second, an alarmimmediately blared and attracted the attention of those outside the studio, who walked over to checkout the situation.

Olivia was shocked too because she only wanted Kate to give it a try without expecting the loud alarmnoise. She hurriedly looked around for the remote control and finally managed to turn the alarm off afterentering the password.

Everyone surrounded the two and discussed the security alarm with great interest.

As for Kate, she was patting her chest in shock. “My god, that was terrifying. It looks like it’s not easy tosteal that tree.”

Nathan happened to walk up and overheard her remark. He could not help but make fun of her. “Areyou stupid? There’s a reason they placed the money tree at the most conspicuous place. How wouldthey let you steal it that easily?”

Kate looked up at Nathan and wanted to tell him that it was none of his business. However, she sawMelanie locking arms with Nathan. When her eyes met Melanie’s, she decided not to retort and insteadchose to ignore him.

It was Nathan who was unused to Kate’s behavior as he joked, “Looks like you’re more behaved today.You indeed have a guilty conscience.”

Furious, Kate could not stop herself from barking back at him, “Get lost, Nathan Baker! I’m onlyoverlooking your comments out of respect for your girlfriend. Don’t cross the line!”

“Tsk, tsk!” He clicked his tongue disapprovingly and turned around to take a look at Melanie. Then, hepinched Melanie’s chin and remarked, “You command people’s respect.”

Melanie shunned his advance in embarrassment, “Quit fooling around. There are people around us.”

Kate stared blankly at the lovey-dovey couple and frantically shifted her gaze away to the money tree,acting as if she was casually admiring it.

Noticing Kate’s discomfort, Olivia stood out and announced, “It’s about time. Let’s go out now.”

A few people responded to her. They left the studio and prepared for the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

At 9.58 a.m., the ceremony officially started. Since there was a firecracker ban in Summer City, somemerry music was played in the background as a replacement. In the middle of the music, Olivia tookthe microphone and gave a short speech.
