Chapter 770
However, he knew that some things could not be forced, especially when he had nothing now.
He adjusted his expression and smiled gently. "Hurry up and eat your noodles, or they'll taste bad."
"Alright."
Olivia lowered her head and stirred the noodles in her bowl. 'The noodles really absorb the soup. Half of the bowl is
gone in such a short time."
"Noodles are like this by nature, but it tastes better after being drenched in the soup."
Olivia felt that Zac was lying to her with his words, but she did not want to debate him, so she continued eating her
noodles.
After all, she was starving.
After eating the noodles, the two chatted for a while, and she brought the empty bowls downstairs.
It was probably because she managed to take revenge on Dorothy that she was so excited she could not sleep.
'Since I can't sleep, I might as well go to the balcony to enjoy the wind.
Not long after, her phone rang.

She did not look at the screen and picked up the call.
"Pheebs, do you remember me?"
Olivia was taken aback before she sat up on the chaise longue. "Xavier?" "Yeah, it's me." Xavier chuckled. "I never
expected you to remember me. I was afraid that you had forgotten about me."
"Of course I remember."
"You don't have to be nervous. I got back to Murica long ago."
"You went back?"
Xavier smiled. "I came back not long after your wedding. I don't want you to hate me."
After saying that, he paused. "But I don't want you to forget me either, so I figured I'd call you and listen to your
voice."
This caught Olivia by surprise, and she kept quiet because she had no idea how to answer.
Probably because he did not get a response from her, Xavier panicked. " Pheebs, are you still there? Am I
disturbing your sleep? Sorry...”
"Nope."
"I saw the news from today. Are you okay?"
"I am fine."
"How I wish that it was me who was protecting you..."
He was afraid that Olivia might overthink, so he quickly added, "Oh, I think I drank too much and am blabbering. I'm
sorry.”
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Life is still the same, but..."
Xavier said in a stern manner, "I don't go to bars or lounges anymore. Most of my time is spent at work. Everyone
jokes and says that I’m a workaholic now. I want to achieve more in a shorter time and show you that my abilities
are beyond what you can imagine."
Olivia pursed her lips. "It's good to work, but you should rest enough too."
"I wanted to work with John, but he probably thought that my company was not competent enough, so he turned it
down."
'I remember John or someone else mentioning this before.'
"Murica has many good companies. It’s not necessary for you to work with John."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSuddenly, there was a crashing sound from the other end of the line, and then the sound of something hitting the
ground.
"Xavier? Are you okay?"
After a moment, Xavier got up from the floor. "I’m fine. I just bumped into the tea table. It seems like I’m really
tipsy now. I guess I'll go to bed and not disturb you."
After saying that, he hung up the call.
Hearing the beeping sound of the phone, Olivia shook her head helplessly.
'Is Xavier actually as complicated as we thought?
'I really have no idea.'
She never managed to see through anyone.
She probably could not see through herself either.
Thinking of this, she could not help but laugh bitterly. 'The world is complicated. Why bother creating more trouble
for myself?"
Looking at the starry night sky, she twitched her lips.
'Dorothy probably won't dare to do anything for a while. I can take this chance to visit Ian and Sam and relax.’
