Adam Howard stared at Olivia, squinting his deep-set eyes in disbelief.
It had been five years, and for the first time, Adam witnessed his boss proactively and elaborately invite a woman to dinner. Surprisingly, his boss's wife had shown no reaction at all. She was dreadfully cold!
Adam waved his hand, signalling the store manager to leave first.
Only he and Olivia remained in the office. Adam dared to probe, "Aren't you happy, sis-in-law? Are you two... having a cold war?"
Olivia shrugged nonchalantly, "I'm happy every day! There's nothing I can't get over!"
Adam pursed his lips and ambiguously said, "I think you're being overly calm. A woman, you see, should make some drama occasionally. Like they say, 'the squeaky wheel gets the grease!'"
