Why did she lock the door again? Tsk, how dare he ask. Olivia rolled her eyes and did not answer his question.
Then she could feel him moving closer to her. "Are you still mad at me?" His voice was as light as a feather, making her uneasy.
Mad? At him? Olivia still didn't speak. Sam inched even closer and said, "I know you haven't slept yet. I didn't mean to do it. I promise you it won't happen again." Hearing that, Olivia widened her eyes. He thought she was upset because he had kissed her?! Ah, that b*stard. That unromantic b*stard! She must've hit her head hard to have agreed to be his girlfriend! Olivia continued to roll her eyes. This time, she really thought it was better to sleep than to care about what he had to say. She was afraid she would have a heart attack if she continued listening to his words. Despite his efforts to talk to her, Sam found that Olivia was still unwilling to talk to him. Thinking of what he had just done, he thought he had indeed crossed the line. He wanted to apologize but didn't know what to say. In the end, after contemplating, he asked.
"Do you still want your daily goodnight kiss?" What?! After a moment of silence, Olivia finally turned over and looked at Sam. Although the room was dark, it was enough for them to see each other clearly.
"Are you an idiot?" Olivia asked him angrily.
Sam thought she was angry again, so he could only look away awkwardly. "Let's sleep then." Olivia was gobsmacked.

Olivia sneered and said sarcastically, "Who cares about that? You'd better not kissever again." Sam didn't know if it was his imagination, but he kept sensing Olivia's words contained a hint of bitterness. He had always thought he understood women, at least, compared to Maddox. But facing Olivia, who was as sly as a fox, he was perplexed.
What on earth was she thinking? "So you want your goodnight kiss?" With that question, Sam could tell Olivia's gaze at him was even sharper. It was as if she wanted to kill him. In for a penny, in for a pound, Sam didn't bother talking anymore but directly planted a kiss on her forehead, then pulled her into his arms and said, "Sleep." He didn't even give Olivia the chance to react.
Lying in his chest, Olivia was baffled. Had she said anything? How was it that this b*stard of a man suddenly catching on? She had said to never touch her again. Why had he suddenly leaned in and kissed her? However, Olivia's mood improved. At least, he wasn't a complete blockhead but salvageable.
After she calmed down, Olivia soon fell into a deep slumber.
When Sam heard Olivia's even breathing, he placed a gentle kiss on the top of her head. He had truly crossed the line that night; he'd had to work on his self-restraint.
Since learning Sam had done the deed with Olivia, Emma becexceptionally caring toward her. One day, she'd gift her a dress, and a bracelet on another day, then a silk scarf the day after that. All in all, Olivia would receive a gift every day. At first, Olivia accepted it with the thought that Emma adored her. However, Emma continued doing so with each passing day, and it baffled Olivia.
Moreover, Emma was very generous. She gave her a set of skincare products that cost an arm and a leg. Even Olivia was reluctant to buy them.
She felt truly uneasy about accepting the gifts as she and Sam were just testing the waters; what if they did not end up together? Hence, she did not want to accept any more gifts and even wanted to return what she had already received.
Hearing that, Emma immediately becfurious.
"Gifts are not meant to be returned. Ollie, are the gifts not good enough? If so, you can throw them away." Olivia was flabbergasted.
How could she bear to throw such expensive items away? Olivia could only explain helplessly, "Mrs. Sorrento, that's not what I mean. It's just that they're too expensive. I really can't accept them." "Why not? Ollie, you are such a wonderful girl. You are worthy of them. Don't you worry; I wouldn't ask for them back even if you break up with Sam." Somewhat stumped, Olivia didn't expect the conversation to lead to that.
"Don't worry. We're both women, aren't we? Which woman doesn't want her boyfriend and future inlaws to love her? If you and Sam end up marrying, you will only receive more." Emma was living her best life; her husband was good to her and her son was filial, Most of the money Sam made was in her hands. Emma never thought of spending it all but saved it, planning to buy a house for her son after he got married But since it's still a work in progress, she had to get such a wonderful daughter-in-law to stay for them to discuss marriage.
Emma didn't feel a thing using his money to buy things for Olivia.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Mrs. Sorrento, I really..." "Ollie, stop refusing. If you continue, I'll really get upset." Olivia could only give in, but she couldn't take so many things for free, so she went to the mall to buy Emma a very expensive scarf.
Emma was elated to receive it. When she wore it, she'd show it off by saying it was from her future daughter-in-law, it was worth a fortune, and things like that. In fact, it O was Olivia's first tbuying such a Q scarf it cost her a fortune. If it weren't for this matter, she would probably be so heartbroken that she might cry. After all, she didn't have the habit of buying luxurious items, but because Emma had bought so many lavish gifts for her, Olivia didn't feel too upset about it. However, her heart ached, of course. After all, she'd rather save the money for emergencies instead of spending it to no end. Forget it. Regardless, Emma was her boyfriend's mother. She should not disappoint Emma when she was so sincere toward her.
