Chapter 880: Chapter 882

Eugene didn’t want to take her home, but thinking that she might hound him otherwise, he relented, “Fine.” It’d be worrisome to let her go back alone, anyway.

The moment they emerged from their hiding spot, they were met with one-no, two women. They were wearing caps and masks, but he recognized who they were, and he froze. His mind went blank. Olivia? Why is she here? Did they just come? Or did they see anything? Was that call some sort of a test?

By instinct, he let go of Azalea’s hand, much to her confusion. She then turned her attention to the approaching ladies. They might have covered themselves up, but judging from their well-kept figures, she knew they were beautiful women underneath.

And they radiated an air of confidence, which was something she never had. She then looked at Eugene in puzzlement.. Why is he so nervous? Does he know these ladies?

Before she could figure things out, Eugene had already approached the ladies. “Olivia! What brings you here?”

Olivia looked at Azalea for a moment before she turned her attention to him. “We wanted to see you, so we planned to surprise you.” She didn’t plan to get out of the car at first, but then she heard the gunshot and couldn’t help but worry about him. So, in the end, she got out of the car to check on him. Aside from that very reason, she was also furious seeing them so close together.

How much longer do they have to chat? This is taking forever. And I can’t believe he dares to lie to me! Going back to the company, huh?

Nervously, he explained, “This is Azalea, the King of Namb’s cousin and Sirius’ daughter.” Olivia put on a formal smile despite seething inside. She would never show that to Azalea. That would be embarrassing.

“Your reputation precedes you, Princess Azalea. Word has it that you’re the most gorgeous lady around.” Azalea nodded slightly.

“Just a rumor people came up with. And you are?” She was asking Olivia, but her eyes were on Eugene.

He wrapped his arm around Olivia’s shoulder. “She’s Olivia Maxwell, my girlfriend.” Then, he pointed at Jewel. “This is Jewel Fenton, my godsister.”

Azalea nodded again. “So, you’re his family. Hello.” Olivia smiled as she looked at Eugene. “So, what’s the princess’ relationship with you?” Awkwardly, he replied, “Her brother is a friend of mine.”

Olivia looked into his eyes. “Where are you going?” Quickly, he explained, “I was going to the company, but I ran into her, and then a gunshot happened. I was going to get her a ride.”

With a smile on her face, she said, “I see. We’ll go back to the hotel, then. You go ahead.” With that, she was about to leave.

For some reason, Eugene felt a little creeped out from how aloof she was acting, so he quickly held her hand to stop her from leaving. “It’s alright. I was just going to get her a ride.” After saying that, he took her to the roadside, keeping her close. He then hailed a cab. “You should go home, Princess Azalea. Hayes will get worried if you’re out for too long.”

She nodded in acknowledgment without saying a word. Then, she turned to give everyone a nod before getting into the car.

Eugene heaved a sigh of relief in his mind. He then held Olivia’s hand in delight. “Did you just arrive?”

Coolly, she responded, “Yes. We were going back to the hotel since you said you were going to the company. Fancy seeing you here, though.”
