Before leaving, Olissa tidied up the table and looked at Sherman. He seemed a bit down. Olissa couldn't understand why Sherman would report information to the master and madam, especially about Noland. In the past, Sherman had passed on intelligence about Noland to the master and madam, but Noland was aware of it and had turned a blind eye because it didn’t matter at the time.

But now, Sherman had been foolish enough to speak those words directly in front of Noland. Olissa began to question her previous assessment of him. Unlike her, Sherman had been picked up by Noland from a community in Detroit, A country. From being an orphan with no parents and a gangster, he had risen to his current position. He should have cherished the trust Noland had given him, but instead, he was squandering it.

Olissa's family had served the Harris family for generations. If the family member was male, they would become the butler of the Harris family; if female, they would serve as the head of the maids. While the role of head maid no longer existed in modern society, Olissa considered herself in a similar position.

She had been educated in her family’s traditions from a young age. Even after attending an international management school, she never changed her mindset. Despite serving the Harris family, Noland was the only one she considered her true master. Even if Noland fell from his position as the heir to the Harris family, she would continue to serve him loyally.

This was Olissa's personal code of loyalty. As Noland’s personal assistant, she ensured that every aspect of his life was taken care of. As long as Noland was at home, he would always receive the best service. Additionally, she made sure that no information about Noland would ever leak from her subordinates.

In this regard, only Noland's other trusted confidants earned Olissa's respect.

Sherman, who had been struck by Olissa's look of contempt, slumped on the sofa with a sigh. No man could withstand the disdain of a woman he liked.

He wasn't unaware that his actions would upset Noland, but what he said was the truth. The Harris family would never accept a non-English woman as the wife of the family heir. There were still many in the family who held racial prejudices, including Noland’s uncle.

The possibility of Jin Shiya becoming Noland's partner was even lower than that of Jiang Shiyu becoming the wife of Bai Shao.

However, Noland's threat was clear. If Sherman revealed this information to the Harris family, ignoring Noland's warning, he might very well be thrown back into the slums. He would be cast aside, stripped of everything, and left with nothing.

Sherman sighed, removed his glasses, and rubbed his forehead. When he put them back on, his gaze was filled with determination. Even if he were thrown back, he didn’t care. But Noland could never fall from his lofty position.

After staying by Noland's side for so many years, Sherman knew his pride and arrogance. Such a man, he couldn’t even imagine seeing him fall to the dust.

Sherman understood that Olissa was different from him. No matter how absurd Noland’s decisions were, Olissa would carry them out. But Sherman was different; he would never allow that man to make a wrong decision. When he grew old, he knew he would regret letting his pride cause him to make such a foolish choice for a woman.
