Chapter 160
Unfinished Business with You
Chapter 160
Olivia looked like she was about to cry. Alcohol had really screwed me up this time.
âIf two people asked you to buy them sweets and you only managed to get one, what would you do?â
âI wonât give it to anyone! Or, I might give it to one of them secretly.â
Upon getting her friendâs reply, Olivia pouted. âWhat if I asked one of them to give it to the other?â
Kate gave her a glare. âAre you trying to drive a wedge between them?â
Olivia slouched down on the chair. âIâm not.â
âWho did you ask Eugene to pass the candy to?â
âBrian!â
Kate immediately came to a realization. âOh! So you like Brian? Well, Brian is not bad. Heâs handsome,
has a stable job, and looks like a gentle person who doesnât force himself upon others. With your
headstrong personality, you and Brian can fulfill each otherâs shortcomings. Eugene, on the other hand,
is indeed too domineering for you!â
Olivia was sprawled across the table as she tried to defend herself helplessly. âItâs not what you think it
is. I see Brian as my little brother because I feel bad for him. Moreover, he isnât healthy, so I figured that
he needed the sweets more. The point is, I hid the sweets yesterday. I donât know why on earth did I
ask Eugene to give it to him yesterday. Do you think that Eugene would be pissed off?â
Kateâs lips twitched slightly. âWhat do you think? Itâs fine if you donât give it to him, but to ask him to give
it to Brian? Youâre literally asking for it!â
Understand what situation she was in, Oliva sighed. âWhat should I do? Should I explain myself?â
âWhat can you explain? It will only get worse if you try to. Therefore, you better buy a few more boxes
of sweets to make it up to him!â
âItâs sold out.â Olivia felt helpless.
Kate argued, âThatâs why this shows who's more important to you. Itâs the same as who you would drop
first when youâre in danger. Itâs unlikely that Eugene would get angry. However, he would surely feel
sad about it.â
Olivia suddenly got defensive, replying, âWhy would he be sad? Itâs not like thereâs anything between
us. Geez⦠Stop scaring me. Iâm freaking out!â
However, deep down, Olivia knew the answer to it. Brian was Eugeneâs brother after all. Why would
Eugene get mad at his own brother?
She could see that Eugene was a nice brother to Brian, so how was it possible for him to get angry at
her because she wanted to give the sweets to the latter?
It was just that Olivia couldnât possibly say that to Kate.
Kate gave Olivia a look. âAlright, I wonât say anything. You make your own judgment. I feel like Eugene
likes you, so he might get jealous and might even ignore you because you gave the sweets to another
man. However, if he doesnât, you donât have to take it personally; just donât regret your decision. You
should go wake North up now. Doesnât he have classes?â
Olivia immediately regained her composure at that. âAlright, Iâll go get him up.â
After eating breakfast, Olivia and Kate headed out together. The latter went back to her home while the
former went to send her child to school.
To their surprise, they ran into Eugene when the elevator door opened. It was an awkward moment for
them.
Then, Kate greeted Eugene politely.
However, Olivia felt like crying out of awkwardness. Ugh! Talk about coincidences! She was holding the
box of sweets in her hand and was planning to send it to Brian later.
She really wanted to tell Kate to leave first while she waited for the next elevator.
Olivia could only force herself to get into the elevator in reality.
She acted as if nothing had happened as she greeted Eugene, âGood morning, Mr. Nolan!â
Eugene looked emotionless when he noticed the box of sweets that Olivia was holding. It seemed like
she was planning to send it to Brian personally.
He didnât know what to reply as he was feeling all sorts of mixed emotions, so he only mumbled softly,
âHey.â
North glanced at Olivia before glancing at Eugene. Why does it feel like the two of them had fought
again?
He frowned before turning toward Eugene and gave him a suspicious look as he tried to hint through
his eyes. Did you make Mommy angry?
However, Eugene took a deep breath and did not answer him.
He didnât get any rest last night because he had been extremely occupied by various thoughts.
Regardless, he still didnât want to allow Olivia and Brian to start dating.
