Chapter 170
“Why are you so excited?”
“Isn’t this something exciting? Eugene Nolan—the bachelor who’s the dream of countless girls! If you’re with him…
Oh god, I will be hugging a treasure now,” Kate exclaimed in exaggeration and even shook Olivia’s thigh.
Olivia was speechless, for she did not want to be acquainted in any way with the comical lady.
Kate continued her celebration for some time before asking, “Hey, why do you look sullen?”
Olivia gave her a cold stare and Kate smiled in embarrassment. “I mean, that’s good news, isn’t it? Why do you
look troubled?”
Olivia pouted in good fun. “Kate, you’re disrupting my faith!”
Her reply made Kate guffawed. “Hah! You don’t have the faith to start with, but you’re accusing me of disturbing
your faith? Tell me, how did you reply to him?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I told him we’re not suitable for each other.”
Kate was surprised. “Wait, you rejected him?”
“Do you think we make a good couple?” Olivia glared at her.
“Of course! Why aren’t you a good match? Look, he’s cool, and you’re pretty. A match made in heavens!”
Olivia was again at a loss for words. “I really don’t want to talk to you anymore.”
Kate breathed in and said, “Olivia, Eugene is really a nice man. After so many years, I have not once heard a
scandal involving him in Summer City. This shows that he is a disciplined man. I won’t go into his wealth, power, and
good looks. You should know that he’s the best in all aspects. Even if we only talk about how he treats you… Do you
recall how he took great care of you in the hospital? Last time, he even rebuked Harriet Grant at the party for
you…”
When she saw that Olivia wanted to retort, she quickly added, “I know, I know that he just happened to be at the
site. Anyone would have done it for you, but Harriet is no average person. Even though she is no match for Eugene,
everyone has to be courteous to her. But did you see him having any mercy on that day? Not many men would
offend someone influential just for you.”
“By the way, don’t you think that you’re fated? Although your first few encounters were not exactly friendly, you
have to put trust in your destiny. If not, why would Nathan turn out to be Eugene’s nephew, and why would you save
Eugene’s grandpa? What do these serendipities mean if not fate? You can argue with me as much as you want, but
you cannot lie to yourself. Olivia, why don’t you give it a try?”
Olivia sighed at her friend’s persuasion. “Eugene is a good man, and that’s the reason I can’t burden him.”
“Only you’ll think like that. I bet Eugene wants that burden on him badly.” Kate belatedly realized that she had made
a suggestive remark.
Olivia was tickled by her blank look and chuckled. “I wonder how much Eugene pays you for you to promote him
with effort.”
“Yeah, right. I should talk to him tomorrow.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“About what?”
“I need to discuss my commission fee!”
“I was a little touched by your words before, but that feeling is gone after you made that materialistic comment.”
“Don’t! You need to feel touched. Look at me; my life’s a mess, but I still take the time to worry about your love life.
How sacrificial of me!”
Not knowing how to comfort Kate, Olivia sank into silence. Kate stared at her. “Hey! Stop looking at me like that! I’d
think that you’re pitying me.”
Olivia took a deep breath and intentionally barked at her friend, “What’s to pity? Why would I pity a woman like you
who sells your friend out but still has a best friend like me around you? Get back to your room and sleep now!”
“Olivia, my girl, I want you to chat and sleep beside me.” Kate went up to grab Olivia’s arm, to which the latter
shrugged away in a playful manner. “You’re getting over the line!”
