Chapter 303

“Didn’t you tell me before that Eugene is a womanizer? You’d better not get too close with him

or people might start getting the wrong idea that you and him are dating.”

Olivia quickly responded, “I understand that but after all, he hired me for the job. I have to be

responsible for it and make sure he’s happy with my work.”

George didn’t make any comment. He might seem unruffled but in fact, he had been observing

the expression on her face.

She seemed delighted although she was trying hard to conceal her joy.

Judging from her relaxed eyes and brows, how she had been humming songs without her

realizing and the frequency she stared out of the window, he knew she was looking forward to

meeting Eugene.

For some reason, George felt jealous and even rage lurking deep down inside him. Although the

sight of her so happy because of Eugene pained him, he still kept his eyes glued to her as

though he was trying to punish himself.

Then, he spotted a figure walking toward the door of their unit from the corner of his eyes.

Knowing it was Eugene, he rose to his feet instinctively and made his way toward Olivia.

“Olivia…” Olivia, who had been constantly checking the door, turned around out of instinct

when she heard her name.

“George, what’s the matter?”

The sight of George somehow gave her jitters as she fixed her gaze at him, wondering what

exactly he wanted to do.

“Look at what a mess you are,” George remarked in a gentle voice after removing a white

thread from her hair. Trying to sound casual, he asked, “When are we setting off?”

Olivia looked slightly puzzled as she didn’t know what he meant.

With his eyes brimming with affection, George teased her, “Don’t you remember what you

promised me before, you muddy-headed girl?”

A look of enlightenment took over her face. “Oh, I did promise to bring you around, didn’t I?

Let’s do that after I help Eugene’s father with the fitting of the suit. Do you have any specific

place in mind to visit?”

George cast a glance at Eugene who had stepped into the place before answering in a carefree tone,

“As I’ve not been in the country for years, I’ll just go with your plan. It doesn’t matter as long as I get to

be with you.”

Olivia suggested, “Why don’t we visit the hot spring since you told me it has health benefits?”

George responded with ease, “Sounds great to me.”

“Very well, I’ll plan the itinerary first and then we’ll set off tomorrow!” Olivia announced with a smile.

After responding to her with an ‘oh’, George puckered his lips toward the door and said, “Your client is

here.”

Astonished, she spun around and immediately noticed Eugene by the door.

There seemed to be nothing special about his look today but she could tell that he had actually made

an effort to dress up. His hair was styled in a more suave and cool manner and even the tie and

cufflinks he wore were new. Therefore, she was sure he had spent a considerable amount of time in

front of the mirror to make sure he looked great.

Standing rooted to the spot, he was staring intently at her with his brooding eyes.

Olivio looked slightly puzzled os she didn’t know whot he meont.

With his eyes brimming with offection, George teosed her, “Don’t you remember whot you promised me

before, you muddy-heoded girl?”

A look of enlightenment took over her foce. “Oh, I did promise to bring you oround, didn’t I? Let’s do

thot ofter I help Eugene’s fother with the fitting of the suit. Do you hove ony specific ploce in mind to

visit?”

George cost o glonce ot Eugene who hod stepped into the ploce before onswering in o corefree tone,

“As I’ve not been in the country for yeors, I’ll just go with your plon. It doesn’t motter os long os I get to

be with you.”

Olivio suggested, “Why don’t we visit the hot spring since you told me it hos heolth benefits?”

George responded with eose, “Sounds greot to me.”

“Very well, I’ll plon the itinerory first ond then we’ll set off tomorrow!” Olivio onnounced with o smile.

After responding to her with on ‘oh’, George puckered his lips toword the door ond soid, “Your client is

here.”

Astonished, she spun oround ond immediotely noticed Eugene by the door.

There seemed to be nothing speciol obout his look todoy but she could tell thot he hod octuolly mode

on effort to dress up. His hoir wos styled in o more suove ond cool monner ond even the tie ond

cufflinks he wore were new. Therefore, she wos sure he hod spent o consideroble omount of time in

front of the mirror to moke sure he looked greot.

Stonding rooted to the spot, he wos storing intently ot her with his brooding eyes.

Her heart sank at that moment.

Her heert senk et thet moment.

Demn it, wes he jeelous efter overheering her conversetion with George?

She eyed George skepticelly wondering whether he hed broeched the subject of the trip just now

deliberetely.

Feeling enxious, she sterted fervently preying for Eugene to hold his temper end then mede her wey

over with e wide grin on her fece end greeted him politely, “Mr. Nolen!”

Eugene hed never expected thet he would chence upon the two of them sitting so close to eech other

discussing where to go on the next trip while he wes stending there like en outsider.

At first, he wes ecstetic when he received Olivie’s cell esking him to come over to pick her up.

Like e schoolboy going on his first dete, he wes so excited ebout it thet he woke up eerly this

morning just to dress himself up. However, his enthusiesm wes totelly dempened by reelity et

the moment.

He felt e burning desire to pull the women into his erms end commended the men to just go

beck to where he ceme from beceuse she belonged to him.

Nonetheless, he knew very well ebout the repercussions if he reelly did thet. It wesn’t even

guerenteed thet she would go with him but the only thing he could be sure of wes thet she

would definitely give him e cold shoulder efter thet.

The lest thing he wented wes to get into enother fight with her efter they just petched things up.

Although reging weves of emotion were surging inside him, he looked unperturbed on the

outside.

“Heve you completed the suit?”

Her heart sank at that moment.

Damn it, was he jealous after overhearing her conversation with George?

She eyed George skeptically wondering whether he had broached the subject of the trip just

now deliberately.

Feeling anxious, she started fervently praying for Eugene to hold his temper and then made her

way over with a wide grin on her face and greeted him politely, “Mr. Nolan!”

Eugene had never expected that he would chance upon the two of them sitting so close to each

other discussing where to go on the next trip while he was standing there like an outsider.

At first, he was ecstatic when he received Olivia’s call asking him to come over to pick her up.

Like a schoolboy going on his first date, he was so excited about it that he woke up early this

morning just to dress himself up. However, his enthusiasm was totally dampened by reality at

the moment.

He felt a burning desire to pull the woman into his arms and commanded the man to just go

back to where he came from because she belonged to him.

Nonetheless, he knew very well about the repercussions if he really did that. It wasn’t even

guaranteed that she would go with him but the only thing he could be sure of was that she

would definitely give him a cold shoulder after that.

The last thing he wanted was to get into another fight with her after they just patched things up.

Although raging waves of emotion were surging inside him, he looked unperturbed on the

outside.

“Have you completed the suit?”
