Unfinished Business with You
Chapter 414
Eugene smiled. âAlright; thank you for today.â
âYouâre welcome. Call me if thereâs anything,â Kate said as she got out of the car.
Afterward, Eugene glanced at Olivia through the rearview mirror. âAre you mad?â
In response, Olivia shifted her gaze and looked out the window, acting like it was uncalculated. âNope.â
He said, âIf youâre not, would your best friend say something like that to me?â
Then, she replied, âYouâre overthinking it because you have a guilty conscience!â
Upon hearing those words, he felt a little speechless. âI grew up with Zoe. Her mother used to have a
close relationship with mine. So, she spent most of her childhood at my house. Besides, Iâve always
regarded her as a younger sister. Thereâs nothing between us at all.â
Giving him a sideways glance, she imitated the way Zoe spoke, saying, âI know that, Gene.â
âThen, does it still upset you?â
However, she kept quiet and did not respond to the question.
âIâll avoid close contact with her in the future,â he said. Then, he added, âNo, Iâll keep all other women at
armâs length in the future.â
After hearing that, Olivia couldnât help smiling slightly as she turned her head away and pretended to
ignore him. However, Eugene felt unsure. Thus, he stopped the car and pulled her into his arms. âDonât
be jealous of her. Nothing is going on between us.â
Glaring at him abruptly, she asked fiercely, âWhoâs being jealous?!â
He responded reasonably, âOkay, okay; youâre not being jealous. My girlfriend is gentle, beautiful,
smart, and magnanimous. How could she possibly be jealous for no reason?â
Staring at him, she asked, âWhy are you so similar to Kate?â
In response, he asked, âWhatâs up with her?â
She pouted. âI seriously suspect her of being a spy you sent to my side. She even put in a good word
for you.â
Upon hearing that, he couldnât help but chuckle. âWhat did she say?â
Suppressing her disgust, she spat out, âShe was like a broken record! Eugen Nolan is a great man; you
wonât have to worry about money⦠She could have been your spokesperson with the way she went on
and on about you!â
Then, he laughed out loud. âDid she really say that?â
âYeah.â
âYou can tell her tomorrow that if her magazine publisher ever needs it, the Nolan Group is willing to
cooperate with her on account of her helping coax my girlfriend.â
Snorting, she scoffed, âThe two of you are banding up against me!â
âAre you saying you can tell that we are working togetherâ¦â he glanced at her hesitantly before
continuing, âto cajole you?â
âIâm not even angry. Why do you need to coax me?â
Thus, he replied, âI know. But, we thought you were angry. Besides, our son even gave me a 30-minute
lecture because he thought that you were angry at me.â
Upon hearing that, she became suspicious. âNorth went to your place?â
He said, âNope. I was looking for you. Seriously, you didnât see how fierce that little b*stard was! You
will forever be the most important person to him.â
Upon hearing that, she looked pleased. âOf course; heâs my son.â
âHeâs mine too!â
âYouâre not his father yet!â
âSooner or later, I will be.â
Olivia was rendered speechless. Thereâs no winning against him, is there? âSo, what did North lecture
you about?â
âHe had a lot to say. But, it can be summarized down to two points. One, his mommy is always right.
Two, if his mommy isnât right, please refer to the first point!â
After hearing that, she lowered her head and tried hard to suppress her smile. âHow did you respond?â
Eugene seemed slightly taken aback for a moment before he replied, âI said I agree!â
Thus, she snorted, feeling secretly pleased. âThatâs more like it.â
After that, he took advantage of her mood and asked, âWhat does my girlfriend want to eat tonight?â
She was in a good mood right now. So, she thought about it for a bit then said, âWhy donât I cook
tonight? Letâs go and buy some noodles. Iâll make some sesame noodles.â
Glancing at her doubtfully, Eugene confirmed that she wasnât angry and was not thinking of punishing
him.
âWhatâs with that look? You donât trust me?â
âNo, Iâm just overwhelmed by your love.â
Then, Olivia turned away and smiled in secret. She had noticed that this man was unparalleled when it
came to saying sweet nothings.
