Chapter 530

Some of them were still discussing what just transpired. Right then, someone pointed to the side and said, "Look,

who is that man talking with Olivia and Jewel right now?"

"I know him. Isn't that the president of Road Enterprises, Alex Road? The perfect example of a playboy. I heard that

the women beside him change so often that none of them lasted for more than a week."

"Is Alex Road backing Olivia?"

"No wonder she doesn't bother putting up with Summer!"

"What's the point? She might not even be the one standing next to him a week later!"

Naturally, Olivia didn't bother with the gossip around her. She was wondering why Alex was still hanging around

waiting for them here.

As though he was here to stir more rumors about her, he flashed a smile and came over to Olivia and Jewel. "I had

some business to settle here. I dropped by to see the two of you when I heard you girls were having a shoot here as

well."

Olivia's mouth twitched in response. She thought to herself that rather than some pompous excuse like that, he

should just be direct and say that Jewel was the reason for his visit.

"Why don't you let me treat you two to a meal?"

Olivia turned to Jewel for an answer, only for Jewel to give an indifferent shrug.

"Then let's go!"

After they were seated in a private room of a certain restaurant, Alex suggested, "Why don't we call Eugene up and

invite him here as well?"

Olivia replied, "Please don't torment him about this. He'll have to spend an hour and a half on the road just to have

a meal here. That's just not worth it for a single meal!"

Alex only glanced at Olivia after she was done. "Right, then let's place our orders."

However, Jewel stayed silent, making no indication that she was planning to order any dishes. In all honesty, Jewel

had a bad impression of Alex. Nevertheless, that man was Olivia's friend. She did not want to be the reason that

prevented Olivia from spending time with her friend.

Nonetheless, this man was very attentive to Jewel. He kept asking her questions like whether she would eat this

dish, or whether she wanted that dish.

In the end, the dishes he ordered were all dishes that she liked.

Even though she only had to nod in affirmation so far.

Their orders came in no time. Alex then attentively moved Jewel's favorite dishes near her and gave her a friendly

gesture. "Eat up!"

Because it was rare for Olivia to see Alex acting this way, she couldn't stifle her laugh and broke out in laughter.

When Alex noticed her laughing, he moved one of the dishes Olivia ordered and placed it right in front of her.

"What's so funny? Since Eugene isn't here, I'll have to properly cater to you two right now. Here you go! Eat up!"

Olivia smiled at him. "If only you would be this nice and treat us every day."

Alex—sensing an opportunity—immediately flashed a grateful look at her. "That's no problem since I'll still be

around here for the next few days. I can treat the two of you to lunch every day while I'm here!"

Still smiling, Olivia gave her answer. "Sure!"

Jewel, on the other hand, threw a cold-eyed stare—laced with hints of disgust—at Alex. She felt that this man was

acting excessively attentive toward the two of them.

This prick isn't planning to seduce Olivia while Eugene is not around, is he?

However, Alex did not cross any lines and took great care of them. Though, Jewel found Alex's attentiveness to be

slightly overbearing.

Partaking in the meal, Alex spun the turntable and recommended dishes to them. "You girls should try the salted

duck here. I heard that it's good. The fried chicken gizzard tastes great too. Here, I ordered corn soup as well. Girls

like to eat sweet stuff like this, don't they?"

He knew that Jewel was still on guard with him, which was why he planned to take things slow, and to first prioritize

getting her to let her guard down around him.

The first part of his plan was to get better acquainted with Jewel. Thus, he would strike up idle conversations during

the course of their meal, and would occasionally direct questions—mainly about the situation of the cast and

production team—toward Jewel.

Alex then escorted them back when they were done with their meal. Before dropping them off, he said, "Think

about what you girls want for lunch tomorrow! I'll make arrangements for it!"531
