Chapter 160
Olivia looked like she was about to cry. Alcohol had really screwed me up this time.
“If two people asked you to buy them sweets and you only managed to get one, what would you do?”
“I won’t give it to anyone! Or, I might give it to one of them secretly.”
Upon getting her friend’s reply, Olivia pouted. “What if I asked one of them to give it to the other?”
Kate gave her a glare. “Are you trying to drive a wedge between them?”
Olivia slouched down on the chair. “I’m not.”
“Who did you ask Eugene to pass the candy to?”
“Brian!”
Kate immediately came to a realization. “Oh! So you like Brian? Well, Brian is not bad. He’s handsome, has a stable
job, and looks like a gentle person who doesn’t force himself upon others. With your headstrong personality, you
and Brian can fulfill each other’s shortcomings. Eugene, on the other hand, is indeed too domineering for you!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOlivia was sprawled across the table as she tried to defend herself helplessly. “It’s not what you think it is. I see
Brian as my little brother because I feel bad for him. Moreover, he isn’t healthy, so I figured that he needed the
sweets more. The point is, I hid the sweets yesterday. I don’t know why on earth did I ask Eugene to give it to him
yesterday. Do you think that Eugene would be pissed off?”
Kate’s lips twitched slightly. “What do you think? It’s fine if you don’t give it to him, but to ask him to give it to Brian?
You’re literally asking for it!”
Understand what situation she was in, Oliva sighed. “What should I do? Should I explain myself?”
“What can you explain? It will only get worse if you try to. Therefore, you better buy a few more boxes of sweets to
make it up to him!”
“It’s sold out.” Olivia felt helpless.
Kate argued, “That’s why this shows who's more important to you. It’s the same as who you would drop first when
you’re in danger. It’s unlikely that Eugene would get angry. However, he would surely feel sad about it.”
Olivia suddenly got defensive, replying, “Why would he be sad? It’s not like there’s anything between us. Geez…
Stop scaring me. I’m freaking out!”
However, deep down, Olivia knew the answer to it. Brian was Eugene’s brother after all. Why would Eugene get
mad at his own brother?
She could see that Eugene was a nice brother to Brian, so how was it possible for him to get angry at her because
she wanted to give the sweets to the latter?
It was just that Olivia couldn’t possibly say that to Kate.
Kate gave Olivia a look. “Alright, I won’t say anything. You make your own judgment. I feel like Eugene likes you, so
he might get jealous and might even ignore you because you gave the sweets to another man. However, if he
doesn’t, you don’t have to take it personally; just don’t regret your decision. You should go wake North up now.
Doesn’t he have classes?”
Olivia immediately regained her composure at that. “Alright, I’ll go get him up.”
After eating breakfast, Olivia and Kate headed out together. The latter went back to her home while the former
went to send her child to school.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTo their surprise, they ran into Eugene when the elevator door opened. It was an awkward moment for them.
Then, Kate greeted Eugene politely.
However, Olivia felt like crying out of awkwardness. Ugh! Talk about coincidences! She was holding the box of
sweets in her hand and was planning to send it to Brian later.
She really wanted to tell Kate to leave first while she waited for the next elevator.
Olivia could only force herself to get into the elevator in reality.
She acted as if nothing had happened as she greeted Eugene, “Good morning, Mr. Nolan!”
Eugene looked emotionless when he noticed the box of sweets that Olivia was holding. It seemed like she was
planning to send it to Brian personally.
He didn’t know what to reply as he was feeling all sorts of mixed emotions, so he only mumbled softly, “Hey.”
North glanced at Olivia before glancing at Eugene. Why does it feel like the two of them had fought again?
He frowned before turning toward Eugene and gave him a suspicious look as he tried to hint through his eyes. Did
you make Mommy angry?
However, Eugene took a deep breath and did not answer him.
He didn’t get any rest last night because he had been extremely occupied by various thoughts. Regardless, he still
didn’t want to allow Olivia and Brian to start dating.
