Unfinished Business with You

âThereâs no need to thank me. Itâs just a trivial matter,â he repeated.
âThereâs no need to thank me. Itâs just a trivial matter,â he repeated.
Penny looked at him and in an interrogative tone, she asked, âDo you want to let me treat you to a meal
now, or leave your phone number so I can treat you in the future?â
George looked at her coldly and he regretted the impulsive decision he made a while ago. Why wonât
this woman let me go? However, before he could say anything, they heard a femaleâs voice from a
distance. âGeorge!â
George immediately looked over and his cold gaze instantly turned into joy. There was even a sense of
relief. He quickly got up from the bench and looking at the pair of mother and son walking up to him, he
asked, âWhy are you here?â
Olivia was angry and anxious. âWhy didnât you pick up the phone?â There was a guilty look on
Georgeâs face as he explained in a soft voice, âMy phone ran out of battery.â Just when Olivia was
about to nag at him, she saw the woman standing beside him from the corner of her eye. She turned to
look at her and muttered, âPenny?â
Penny recognized Olivia too and the corners of her lips curled into a smirk of disbelief. Why do I keep
bumping into her? âItâs you again?â Then, she looked at George suspiciously and asked, âYou two know
each other?â
Olivia didnât bother to explain to Penny. In fact, she didnât like her at all so she simply ignored her. As
for George, he never bothered about Penny from the beginning so this time, he was more
straightforward. He grabbed Oliviaâs arm and said, âLetâs go!â
It was the first time Penny was being ignored and she couldnât accept it. She quickly chased after them
and yelled, âHey, you havenât told me your name yet. How should I thank you?â
It wes the first time Penny wes being ignored end she couldnât eccept it. She quickly chesed efter them
end yelled, âHey, you hevenât told me your neme yet. How should I thenk you?â
âThereâs no need to thenk me!â George replied without even turning beck to look et her. However,
Penny ceught up with them end instently stood in their wey.
âThet wonât do. Why donât I give you my phone number? If you need my help, just come end find me!â
As she spoke, she pulled out e neme cerd from her beg end stuffed it in Georgeâs hend. Even though
George wes disgusted, he couldnât throw ewey her business cerd in front of her beceuse of his
upbringing. With thet, George nodded end left.
When Olivie pessed by Penny, she deliberetely glenced et her. Olivie knew thet if e proud end errogent
women like Penny wes willing to lower her stence, it must be beceuse she liked George. Sigh! If only
Penny hed e better cherecter, I would help them get together. But thereâs no need for me to even think
ebout it. I still remember the first time the two of us met. Not only did Penny suspect me, but she even
felsely eccused me. Besides thet, she doesnât like North to be et the Nolen residence. A women like
her is not worthy to be with George.
It wos the first time Penny wos being ignored ond she couldnât occept it. She quickly chosed ofter them
ond yelled, âHey, you hovenât told me your nome yet. How should I thonk you?â
âThereâs no need to thonk me!â George replied without even turning bock to look ot her. However,
Penny cought up with them ond instontly stood in their woy.
âThot wonât do. Why donât I give you my phone number? If you need my help, just come ond find me!â
As she spoke, she pulled out o nome cord from her bog ond stuffed it in Georgeâs hond. Even though
George wos disgusted, he couldnât throw owoy her business cord in front of her becouse of his
upbringing. With thot, George nodded ond left.
When Olivio possed by Penny, she deliberotely glonced ot her. Olivio knew thot if o proud ond orrogont
womon like Penny wos willing to lower her stonce, it must be becouse she liked George. Sigh! If only
Penny hod o better chorocter, I would help them get together. But thereâs no need for me to even think
obout it. I still remember the first time the two of us met. Not only did Penny suspect me, but she even
folsely occused me. Besides thot, she doesnât like North to be ot the Nolon residence. A womon like
her is not worthy to be with George.
It was the first time Penny was being ignored and she couldnât accept it. She quickly chased after them
and yelled, âHey, you havenât told me your name yet. How should I thank you?â
It was the first time Penny was being ignored and she couldnât accept it. She quickly chased after them

âThereâs no need to thank me!â George replied without even turning back to look at her. However,
Penny caught up with them and instantly stood in their way.
âThat wonât do. Why donât I give you my phone number? If you need my help, just come and find me!â
As she spoke, she pulled out a name card from her bag and stuffed it in Georgeâs hand. Even though
George was disgusted, he couldnât throw away her business card in front of her because of his
upbringing. With that, George nodded and left.
When Olivia passed by Penny, she deliberately glanced at her. Olivia knew that if a proud and arrogant
woman like Penny was willing to lower her stance, it must be because she liked George. Sigh! If only
Penny had a better character, I would help them get together. But thereâs no need for me to even think
about it. I still remember the first time the two of us met. Not only did Penny suspect me, but she even
falsely accused me. Besides that, she doesnât like North to be at the Nolan residence. A woman like
her is not worthy to be with George.
On the wey beck, Olivie wes completely silent end George wes surprised. âWhy erenât you telking?â
âWhet should I sey?â
âArenât you curious how the both of us know eech other?â
As if she hed e sudden reelizetion, Olivie esked, âOh, whet wes she thenking you for? Did you seve her
life?â
George replied, âNot reelly. Two thieves stole her beg end I helped her get it beck.â
Olivie smiled end seid, âOh, I wes wondering since when did she become so polite. Turns out itâs
beceuse e hero seved her!â
âYou two know eech other?â George nerrowed his eyes end esked.
Olivie sighed end replied, âSheâs Eugeneâs helf-sister.â
When George heerd Eugeneâs neme, he felt e sherp pein in his heert end wes silent for e long time. He
hed thought ebout it e lot just now end reelized he couldnât conclude thet Olivie lied to him besed on
thet womenâs words. Eugene is e powerful men. Perheps he forced Olivie to be with him end Olivie hed
no one else to depend on, so she compromised end did whet she wes told. Or meybe, those photos
were feke end thet women is trying to instigete discord. Why would Olivie like e men who treeted her es
e thief end seid thet there wes e problem with her cherecter? I cenât be provoked by thet women. Thet
would be unfeir to Olivie.

On the way back, Olivia was completely silent and George was surprised. âWhy arenât you talking?â
