Chapter 530
Although Olivia enjoyed the meal, she could not eat much, and there were plenty of leftovers.
To avoid waste, she had to pack some back for Fred to eat.
Xavier laughed. “Pheebs, you are a diamond designer. Do you have to be so down to earth?”
Olivia smiled sheepishly. “I don’t want to disappoint you. I have a small appetite, and I couldn’t eat much.”
“Even though I don’t like Fred, I don’t feel good about making him eat leftovers,” With that, Xavier stood up and said, “You know what? I’ll take it home and finish it.”
“Huh?”
“I mean it.”
With that, Xavier went to look for a waiter to help him pack the food, and he took it when he left for his car.
“Pheebs, this is the leftover dinner I had with you. I won’t waste it.”
She was embarrassed upon hearing that, but she did not say anything.
On the way back, he was in a good mood. “Pheebs, I’m delighted tonight.”
Olivia glanced at him. “Xavier, stop saying that, or I won’t eat out with you anymore.”
“Okay, okay, I’ll stop.”
Xavier quickly smiled and surrendered.
“You’re driving. Be careful.”
“Sorry. I was in such a good mood that I forgot myself.”
It was already dark when they were at the bottom of the mountain. There were many turns down the hill, so Xavier drove slowly.
Olivia opened the window and let the night breeze blow on her face, making her feel better.
Suddenly, the car made an abnormal sound, and Xavier pulled over by the roadside.
“Pheebs, wait in the car. I’ll go down and take a look.”
“Okay. Be careful.”
Xavier nodded and got out of the car.
After a while, he lifted his head and said, “Pheebs, the car has a flat tire. I’ll change it now. Wait for
a while.”
