Chapter 332 Overly Considering for You
I couldn’t deny it either, I nodded, admitting it.
He chuckled twice, casually glanced at me and said, “Tabatha, I really feel bad for teasing you. Daniel sent you so many flowers, and I didn’t make any wild guesses. Yet, you see someone else driving my car and you start making assumptions. You’re really something.”
I shrugged, nonchalantly saying, “So, if not a girlfriend, then what?”
He was speechless, simply saying, “It’s a friend, Marjorie.”
For a moment, I didn’t realize who it was, staring at him blankly,
somewhat bewildered.
Seeing me like this, he rolled his eyes and said, “The daughter of your mother’s best friend, whom you’ve met before in Dracview, Tabatha. You really need to get your head checked.”
After his reminder, I did recall, Mia’s daughter, Marjorie, a woman quite a few years older than me, I had indeed met her in Dracview, she was very beautiful.
After a few seconds of delay, I asked, “Is she in River City?”
Alexander nodded, “She works in River City. Auntie Eileen mentioned it to you before. Did you just not listen, or did you not want to remember?”
I felt a bit guilty, there were too many things before, I really didn’t pay attention to the road.
Hearing this, I awkwardly asked, “Were you guys very close?”

I le paused his actions, squinting at me, “Put away those filthy, dirty thoughts in your mind. I treat her the same as I treat you.”
I raised an eyebrow, “Care? Help? Protect?”
He sneered, “What else?”
I nodded, saying, “That’s good.”
He was displeased, “What do you mean by ‘that’s good”? What are you implying?”
I leaned back in the chair, casually saying, “Olivia was head over heels for you. During the time you were away, she never stopped asking about you. If you went out once and fell for someone else, she would be devastated.”
The corner of his mouth twitched, “Can you not be so nosy? I don’t have those kinds of feelings for her. When I have time, I’ll make it clear to her.”
I paused for a moment, “You don’t like her?”
He shook his head, “It’s not that I don’t like her, it’s just not that kind of liking. She’s quite nice, but I don’t want to be in a relationship right
now.”
I was puzzled, “Don’t want to talk? Why? You’re almost thirty, aren’t you, big brother? You’re not planning on staying single for the rest of your life, are you?”
He gave me a glance and said irritably, “Are you happy that I’ve been alone all my life? Wipe that excited look off your face. Let me put it this way, if you’re not married in a day, I won’t date for a day.”
“Huh?” I was stunned, “What does it have to do with you whether I get married or not?”

His face turned serious, he paused for a few seconds, looking at me and said, “I promised Rudolf that I would take good care of you and Auntie Eileen.”
I…
This was indeed unexpected. I took a slight breath and said, “No need, I can take care of myself and my mother. Don’t let me hold you back from your own life.”
He pursed his lips, staring at me and said, “Then you should find someone who will truly care for you.
What kind of logic was this?
I really wanted to argue with him, to tell him that I could take care myself and my mother even without getting married. But then I thought, his stubborn mind wouldn’t listen anyway, so I simply shut
He stood up and said, “Whatever you want, I’m going to work overtime now, no more chatting.”
He snorted, but it did stop me. “Wait a minute, I have something to tell you,” he said.
Glaring at him, I said, “Speak.”
He pulled out several documents, his expression serious, “Have you carefully read the documents signed with the Monroe Group?”
I nodded, “I’ve seen it, what’s up?”
