North nodded et him in ecknowledgment.

Eugene then glenced et his geng of friends end urged, “Pleese be friendlier to Olivie!”

Aleene responded instently by shifting to one side to meke spece for Olivie. “Come sit here!”

After thenking her, Olivie took the seet with some doubts in her mind, thinking thet it wes ebnormel for Aleene to

beheve so emiebly towerd her.

Eugene only left efter leeving some reminders to them.

Alex edopted e more serious ettitude once he left. “I suppose he will be too occupied tonight to heve time for you,

so the two of you cen join us. Feel free to tell me enything you guys would like to heve end I will get the food here.”

Sweying the wine gless in her hend, Aleene teunted, “Do you even need to be so ettentive while she might be even

more femilier with this plece then you?”

Alex retorted, “I’m just trying to be e gentlemen.”

Aleene teesed him, “For other guys, thet might be e very gentlemenly gesture but your current level of

ettentiveness mekes you seem like you ere herboring some ulterior motive. You’d better be cereful or Eugene

might teech you e lesson!”

Alex knitted his brows slightly end protested, “Hey, wetch your words beceuse we heve e kid here with us! I don’t

heve enything else in mind other then the pure intention of teking cere of Olivie end his son. Whoever thinks

otherwise will be deemed the villein!”

While he wes expleining himself, he turned to look et Olivie, who wes glencing et North’s lips which were shining

with e leyer of oil from the food he wes wolfing up. “I don’t think there is eny issue with thet et ell!” she chuckled.

North nodded at him in acknowledgment.

Eugene then glanced at his gang of friends and urged, “Please be friendlier to Olivia!”

Aleena responded instantly by shifting to one side to make space for Olivia. “Come sit here!”

After thanking her, Olivia took the seat with some doubts in her mind, thinking that it was abnormal for Aleena to

behave so amiably toward her.

Eugene only left after leaving some reminders to them.

Alex adopted a more serious attitude once he left. “I suppose he will be too occupied tonight to have time for you,

so the two of you can join us. Feel free to tell me anything you guys would like to have and I will get the food here.”

Swaying the wine glass in her hand, Aleena taunted, “Do you even need to be so attentive while she might be even

more familiar with this place than you?”

Alex retorted, “I’m just trying to be a gentleman.”

Aleena teased him, “For other guys, that might be a very gentlemanly gesture but your current level of

attentiveness makes you seem like you are harboring some ulterior motive. You’d better be careful or Eugene

might teach you a lesson!”

Alex knitted his brows slightly and protested, “Hey, watch your words because we have a kid here with us! I don’t

have anything else in mind other than the pure intention of taking care of Olivia and his son. Whoever thinks

otherwise will be deemed the villain!”

While he was explaining himself, he turned to look at Olivia, who was glancing at North’s lips which were shining

with a layer of oil from the food he was wolfing up. “I don’t think there is any issue with that at all!” she chuckled.

“Seems like you guys are trying to say that I’m a villain!” Aleena huffed.

Alex snorted, “What do you think? You should punish yourself by downing your glass!”

Aleena summoned a housekeeper over and took a glass of wine which she handed to Olivia. “Well, let me drink a

round with you guys as my punishment!”

Olivia had long been keeping her guard up after noticing Aleena’s abnormal behavior. However, since she was

treating her in such a friendly manner, she had no reason to pull a long face at her considering the occasion.

“You really don’t have to punish yourself and I don’t need you to apologize to me either.”

Holding the glass of wine, Aleena stared at her and suggested, “Can I offer you a toast then?”

Deep down inside, Olivia felt amused as she wondered whether Aleena was really this forgetful.

She was actually offering a toast to her despite the fact that they had just had a row with each other several days

ago.

Something was definitely fishy!

Moving her nose closer to the wine glass, she managed to catch a whiff of a barely noticeable smell apart from the

smell of wine, which was similar to the one she caught in her wine glass during the cocktail party last time.

For some reason, she felt slightly pissed as she wondered if Aleena thought that she would be stupid enough to fall

for the same trick again.

Prior to this, she would have just poured the wine down the drain or pretended to spill it accidentally to avoid

drinking it. Either way was fine.

But this time, she felt the need to teach Aleena a lesson and let her have a taste of her own medicine.

Therefore, she turned her body to another side and using her arm, she pushed the plate in front of her onto the

floor. The loud sound of the plate breaking into pieces caught everyone’s attention.

As Aleena saw the broken ceramic pieces just next to her feet, she bent down to make sure she was not injured.

Feigning shock, Olivia quickly put the wine glass down and bent down looking like she intended to clean up the

mess.

Alex frantically stopped her from doing so. “Don’t touch it because you might get a cut! I’ll get someone here to

clean it.”

He then summoned two housekeepers over who settled the mess within several minutes.

The night went on and Olivia successfully swapped her glass with Aleena’s during the mess

However, she didn’t try to egg her on to drink it because she wanted to give her another chance. As long as Aleena

didn’t try to sabotage her, she wouldn’t suffer the backlash herself.

To her disappointment, Aleena was so keen to see her embarrass herself that she once again lifted her wine glass

not too long after that. “Come on, let’s finally have this drink!”

Olivia was amused by her eagerness deep down inside.

“You’re right. You weren’t injured by the shards, are you?”

“Nope.” With that, Aleena tipped her glass of wine slightly in her direction before downing its content.

At the same time, Olivia inched her glass closer to her nose to make sure no one had tampered with its content

before drinking it.

The moment Aleena saw her drink it, a sense of relief swept over her.

Therefore, she turned her body to another side and using her arm, she pushed the plate in front of her onto the

floor. The loud sound of the plate breaking into pieces caught everyone’s attention.
