Chapter 882: Chapter 884

She would not allow herself to stoop so low Olivia took a deep breath and pretended she was fine. “I know. Thanks, Jewel, but you need not worry about me. Since he said he doesn’t like her, I’ll trust him.” Jewel responded, “Yeah. Azalea might be super hot, but Eugene still likes you the most.”

Well, I understand you’re trying to console me, but the first remark wasn’t necessary, Olivia grumbled in her mind. They packed up and got into the cab. They had planned on going to Eugene’s company to meet up with him before heading off to the airport.

However, before they could arrive at his company, he called them. He apologized, “I’m sorry, Olivia. Can you stay for one more day? Hayes suddenly called me. We’ll leave tomorrow.”

Olivia was a little disappointed. She thought they would meet up real soon, but things changed all of a sudden. If you can’t leave, then don’t promise me anything. You made me happy for nothing. “What happened?” she inquired.

He said hurriedly, “I don’t know for sure, but he said it’s something urgent. I’ll have to take a look. You ladies stay around, alright?” She had no choice but to agree to it. “Sure.”

Eugene wanted to cheer her up. He knew she was upset, but Hayes just told him he had to go over, or he would regret it. I don’t have much time now. “Sorry, Olivia. After I have checked things out, I’ll call you.”

“Alright,” Olivia muttered. He knew she was disappointed. She came all the way to see him, but he just kept working. He put his phone closer and genuinely said, “I love you, Olivia.”

Instead of feeling warm and delighted at his love confession, she only felt numb. After the call ended, she put her phone down stiffly.

“What’s wrong?” Jewel asked in concern. “He can’t leave yet. Said he had something to do. We’ll need to stay for one more day.”

Jewel shrugged at that. “Then, that’s what we’re gonna do. We still haven’t shopped around anyway.”

Olivia was upset, but she kept telling herself it was just one more day. I can just treat this as a vacation. Besides, it’s better than the time when I couldn’t find him. I’m not going to let myself get sulky over this. After making up her mind, she smiled. “Sure.

Where are we going?”

Jewel replied, “Let’s check in at a hotel near the company and talk after that.”

“Okay.” The ladies went to a decent hotel. They were about to check in, but then someone called Olivia again. This time, it was a phone call from Christoff. A frown slowly formed on her face as she thought, Is he still here? Reluctantly, she took the call.

“Where are you?” he asked.

Nonchalantly, she said, “On my way to the airport.” He chuckled. “As if. You’re at a hotel, aren’t you?” Surprised, she looked around for him. “Where are you?”

“Don’t even try. You won’t find me. I thought you were going back. What happened?” “Nothing happened. Just thought that we haven’t played enough just yet, so we decided to stay around for another day.”

“Yeah, right. You’re waiting for Eugene, aren’t you?” Dammit. How does he know everything? And why does he keep an eye on me? “What? Annoyed because I’m waiting for my boyfriend?”

Christoff chuckled. “Nope. Just want to remind you of something: you’re waiting for him, but he might be waiting for someone else. Not you, that’s for sure.”

Olivia’s face fell. “What do you mean by that?”
