Chapter 212

Perhaps Olivia‘s taste was a little not so mainstream.

“Whatever. You‘re hungry, so come have some food.” The takeout in the bag was still hot. Incidentally, Lily was feeling hungry. She decided to take the food to the table outside to eat together.

She no longer focused on this question. However, Olivia was still fixated on the “Is there something wrong with your taste?” remark. Even after they sat down and picked up their cutleries, she could not help raising her head and asking, “Which part of my description is inaccurate?”

Lily was speechless.

“Fine, then tell me, in what way was he awkward in the way he does things?”

Thinking about it, Lily decided that things like appearance were in the eyes of the beholder. However, the way Alexander did work was far from awkward.

“I asked him who he was and why he was here, and he took ages to answer me simply that he was from the company. Think about it. We‘re talking about me. Not long after I arrived, I met everybody here. With one look, I could tell he was not from the company. Let‘s not even talk about other things.

He tried to bluff me over something like that. Is that awkward or not?”

Olivia analyzed, “If he‘s here for you, then be bold about it. There is no need to fabricate some lie about being from the company. What a ridiculous excuse!”

After she finished her rant, she noticed Lily did not say anything. She worried that Lily was angry, so she explained carefully, “Nonetheless, this could mean that he‘s an honest person since he can‘t even lie.”

Olivia did not know Lily was wondering about what she said, imagining Alexander saying this in front of the media.

Indeed, Alexander was from the company. That much was true. However, not many of the lower–

ranked people had met him. For example, even Jenny had only met him a few times before, let alone the ordinary employees. Olivia had only just arrived. It was reasonable that she did not know him.

His behavior was a little awkward now that Olivia had mentioned it. “W–What about being ugly?” Lily asked after thinking for a while. Even if this caused a misunderstanding regarding looks, could their sensibilities be that different?

“I–I was telling the truth. Lily, don‘t be angry,” Olivia clarisied after some hesitation. No matter what, Alexander was Lily‘s new boyfriend. It was a little inappropriate to criticize him like that. Furthermore, Olivia was currently eating the takeout that he had brought.

“No, I‘m not angry,” Lily denied with a nod.

However, this was mere chatter. Lily knew Olivia did not have ill intentions. She wanted to clarify because she was curious about how other people saw Alexander.

In the past, she had seen many magazines and media channels introduce him as resolute, decisive, and ruthless. As for his looks, he was known as a national treasure. Online sources might dunk on him for his methods or for being cold, but never over his looks.

Lily was mesmerized by his looks and was utterly smitten. In contrast to her, Olivia was a different case. Thus she just listened.

“Actually...” Biting her cutleries, Olivia thought of the man‘s looks again. “He looked fine.”

Lily‘s eyelashes fluttered. Finc?!”

“If you look carefully, he is quite good–looking. It‘s just that his face is a little too squarish. If he were skinnier, he would look better. He is tall and looks stout, but that‘s good because he can protect you.”

Squinting lier eyes, Lily compared her description to Alexander‘s face.

‘Is Alexander‘s face too squarish? Did he look stout?‘ “Are you sure we‘re talking about the same person?” Lily started to get suspicious.
