Chapter 185
Unfinished Business with You
Chapter 185
Nathan felt that the suffocating air in his chest was somehow released.
He stopped thinking about Kate.
Although Olivia didn't say a word, she paid attention to all of Melanie's little gestures and expressions.
Every time Nathan's thoughts swayed a little bit toward Katie, Melanie would immediately lean nearer,
hug his arm or give him an obsessive, loving gaze. It was effective enough to pull Nathan back to her.
Sheâs an impressive fake b*tch who acts all pure on the outside despite being rotten inside!
Perhaps my eyes werenât playing tricks after all when I saw that look of disgust she revealed in the
studio that other time!
Maybe Kate's worries are real. Melanie isnât actually dating Nathan for real. She probably even thinks
heâs beneath her. Iâm sure she has greater ambitions!
Suddenly, Olivia no longer desired to preach to Nathan about love. Iâll just wait for him to get into
trouble! This woman will definitely play him for a fool and hurt him to no end.
As anticipation rose in her heart, the corners of her lips curved upward.
When that time comes, Iâll beat him up first! Then, Iâll scold him for being blinded by infatuation and
hurting Katie! Finally, Iâll help Katie to find a new boyfriend so that heâll be forever alone.
Itâs exciting just by thinking about it!
Eugene stared at Olivia in confusion. What is this woman thinking?
Why is she frowning one minute and smiling the next? Sheâs even staring fiercely at Nathan and that
woman.
Hmm? Did they offend her?
After observing for a while, Olivia withdrew her gaze.
Eugene didn't ask her about it. After all, there were so many people around.
Since the guests had already taken their meals, everyone got up and left one after another as soon as
Kate left.
As hosts, Eugene and Olivia stayed till the end. When all the guests were sent off, it was already past
three o'clock.
Olivia then went to pay the bill.
Nevertheless, Brian refused to let her pay and said that it was on him.
Surprised, Olivia said, âYouâre crazy. This banquet costs hundreds of thousands. How could I let you
pay for it?â
âIt's really not necessary. This is my own hotel, so it didnât cost much,â replied Brian.
âBut thatâs still not okay. This isnât the right way to do business. Even biological siblings have to settle
payments. You will also have to pay for the clothes when you come over to my establishment
tomorrow!â
As Olivia spoke, she again passed him the card, which he pushed back once more and smilingly said,
âThereâs no need. You saved my life before. No matter what, I still owe you.â
In response, Olivia answered, âDidn't you invite me to dinner the last time? That has been settled back
then. Itâs not that serious anyway, so Iâm not your savior. I was just helping you out. If you don't accept
my money, I will be angry!â
Despite undergoing several turns of pushing the card around, Brian still failed to convince her, so he
collected the money and gave a 20% discount.
With a smile on her lips, Olivia said, âIf itâs just a discount, then Iâll take it!â
After leaving the hotel and following Eugene into the car, Olivia felt tired.
As she rubbed her feet that were sore from wearing high heels for the entire day, she really wished to
take off those killer heels. It would be quite inconvenient to do it at the moment since Eugene was with
her.
âAre you tired?â
The manâs deep and pleasant voice came from the front.
âYeah, a little bit,â Olivia said truthfully.
âTake off your shoes then.â
However, Olivia was embarrassed to do so. Her feet would certainly smell after wearing those heels for
the whole day!
Even if Eugene didnât mind, Curtis who was driving might mind!
âNo need. It's not that serious.â
Eugene didnât insist further. He was aware that she cared about her image.
Soon, they arrived at Muse Peninsula and the three took the elevator upstairs.
Exhausted from the events of the day, North plodded tiredly along.
When they reached the 59th floor, Eugene urged, âYou two go back and rest for a bit. Come over for
dinner later in the evening!â
Startled, Olivia immediately replied, âItâs fine. We can eat our dinner at home.â
âCome over. I have something to talk to you about anyway!" said Eugene while staring at her with a
serious expression.
