Chapter 144 He Won’t Come Back Tonight

To Olive, the issues was a very simple one. She really didn’t understand why everyone was reacting so massively.

The old lady was stunned for a moment, but she quickly came in terms with the situation. The issue was a delicate one, but after giving it a proper thought, she decided to tackle the issue sanely.

The old lady patted Olive’s hands lovingly.

“Olly, you really surprised grandma. Is there anything else that you’re hiding from grandma?”

Olive quickly said coquettishly,

“Grandma, I’m really unfamiliar with principal Bounty, I didn’t accept her admission offer, so I really don’t know much about her. Yes, there are other things, but i just don’t think that there are necessary to be spoken about.”

The old lady knew that there must be some other things about her. Mrs. Samantha quickly saw Joyce’s face in Olive’s. The old lady clenched Olive’s hand tightly in admiration.

“A fifteen years old postdoctoral student? No wonder my Bounty likes you.”

The old lady turned to look at Elvis, she said angrily,

“Elvis, you’re really lucky that Olive is a good girl. You must treat Olive with much more

care.”

Olive raised her eyes and looked at Elvis. He was unbuttoning the silver button on his shirt sleeve.

Their eyes met, but Elvis quickly looked away.

“Grandma, I’ll go to the study and work on some documents.” Elvis excused himself and went upstairs.

Seeing his body disappear from sight, Olive muttered sullenly, “Grandma, I’ll go upstairs too.”

“Okay my dear. Go ahead and have a shower, once you’re done, come down and have dinner, okay?”

The old lady replied with a warm smile.

Elvis sat on the chair, as he smoked a cigarette which was between his fingers. The documents were scattered on the desk.

After smoking to his satisfaction, Elvis stood up and went out of the room.

Elvis stood silently outside the door for a while. He went back in and grabbed his coat, as he exited the room.

The old lady who was in the living room quickly stopped and looked him.

“Elvis, where are you going this late?”

The ride: Doted by My Billionaire Husband Chapter Elvis lowered his handsome eyelids. His magnetic voice didn’t reveal any emotion. “There’s something urgent that I have to deal with at the company.

Grandma, I won’t be back tonight.” “You’re not coming back tonight? Have you informed Olive about it?” Elvis pursed his lips and said nothing. “Did Marvin have a crush on Olive?” The old lady inquired.

“Not sure, but I think so.”

“Marvin is an arr ogant young man. If he comes after Olive, that means that he really likes her. Well I can’t blame him, Olive is a very beautiful girl.”

Elvis touched his pocket to confirm his car keys. He didn’t want to continue with the discussion, so he said,

“Grandma, I’m going to be company.”

“Elvis.” The old lady called out. “Olive is a good girl. Don’t leave her alone like this. Love and marriage both requires the efforts of both parties. Olive has never despised your illness. On the contrary, she has been working hard to make you happy. She wants you to become a better individual. If you lose Olive, I’m certain that you’ll never meet a girl like her again.” The old lady adviced extensively.

Elvis stood by the door. He didn’t look back. He just stood there for a long time.

Elvis finally left. The old lady sat on the sofa in the living room. Mr. Henry, the butler whispered,

“Madam, the current situation is not good. If the Augustine family realizes that Olive was Marvin’s fiance, I feel that a lot of people will join to take Olive away from Elvis.”

The old lady hugged Phoebe and trimmed the soft fur on her body. She snorted,

“Don’t worry, I can’t mess up. I know what to do.”

Mrs. Samantha hugged Phoebe and said to herself, “Marriage is for two people, as long as they don’t let go of one another, no one else can break them up.

If they let go of one another, no one can save them.”

Mr. Henry tried to comprehend the words of the old lady, but the door of the Elvis’s room cracked open, as Olive descended the stairs.

When Phoebe sighted her master, she quickly jumped out of the old lady’s embrace and ran to Olive’s feet.

Olive squatted and hugged Phoebe. She smiled and said,

“Phoebe, did you miss me?”

The old lady smiled.

“Olive, are you hungry? Let’s have dinner.”

The

ide:

Olive had just taken a shower. Her long pure black hair was dipped in a damp mist from her shoulders.

She wasn’t wearing a mask.

“Grandma.” Olive called out to the old lady. She looked up at the study room with clear eyes. “Could you please wait a little longer? Mr. Augustine hasn’t come down yet.”

“Elvis just left. The company has some urgent issues that he needs to handle. He won’t be back tonight.” The lady informed Olive.

Olive’s eyelashes shivered. She didn’t know that he stepped out. Olive hugged Phoebe and lowered her head. She felt sad.

What was he so angry about? Or was he still suspicious of her and Marvin?

Nothing happened between her and Marvin.

The old lady walked over and patted Olive on the shoulder.

“Olive, it’s easier to get along with each other in love. And marriage requires adjustment. Elvis is a very lonely person. Do you know what he needs the most?” The old asked as she stared at Olive’s face.

“Tonight, you looked so bright and ravishing, making him feel insecure. He really wanted to hold you firmly in his hands, but he’s afraid, afraid that he’ll hurt you.”
