Chapter 301 Confrontation

A smug certainty settled in Oliver’s chest-Layla was absolutely weak for this kind of act.

A mischievous idea sparked, and he closed the distance between them.

Her heart gave an involuntary stutter as his refined, aristocratic features drew uncomfortably near.

“W-What are you doing?” she stammered, the words tripping over themselves.

Oliver looped an arm around her neck, injecting a plaintive note into his voice. “We finally get a moment alone. Don’t be so distant.”

That tone sent a shiver down Layla’s spine, the kind she couldn’t resist.

Her hand moved almost on its own, fingers threading through his soft hair-it felt just like George’s.

Beneath the practiced veneer of a wounded puppy, Oliver’s heart hammered with triumph.

“It hurts, you know. Watching you laugh and joke with the others, then turn all polite and cold with me,” he murmured, laying it on thick.

He lifted his gaze, those beautiful eyes shimmering with manufactured tears. “I’m not asking for special treatment. Just… treat me normally, like you do them. Please?”

How could anyone say no to that?

Layla certainly couldn’t.

In a daze, she heard herself agree, “Okay.”

Just as her head was spinning, a shocked voice sliced through the moment from the doorway. “What’s going on here?”

Blinking back to reality, Layla found George stomping toward them, outrage written all over his face.

A flicker of guilt shot through her.

Of everyone, George and Oliver were like oil and water.

Getting caught cozying up under a tree was asking for a scene.

She scrambled to her feet, instinctively positioning herself in front of Oliver.

Seeing her protective stance only deepened the hurt on George’s face.

His expression crumpled into something heartbreakingly vulnerable. “Layla, are you gonna accept him?”

Layla ran a hand through her hair, flustered.

The truth was, she hadn’t figured it out yet.

There was still the matter of that business proposal Oliver had sent her.

Chapter 301 Confrontation

Her pattern was clear: heart-talk waited until every last pragmatic string was neatly sorted.

She drew breath to clarify the ledger between them-but Oliver’s voice cracked first in a perfectly timed. wet-eyed tremor. “Don’t put her on the spot. I approached her.”

George’s eyes practically bulged from their sockets.

You have got to be joking. This guy’s a Grade-A schemer through and through! No wonder he and Stella hit it off-wo masters of the game, cut from the same conniving cloth!

His anger surged, boiling over. “Enough with the performance! I’m done! We end this here and now!” he growled, pushing up his sleeves.

“Enough!” Layla stepped between them, hands raised. “If either of you throws a punch, you’re both sleeping outside!”

The threat gave George pause, and he reluctantly lowered his fists, though his frustration remained. “Fine But you have to answer, Layla. Are you and Oliver a thing or not?”

All eyes locked onto her, including Carson’s, who had just returned, a string of wild pheasants slung over his broad shoulder.

Layla cleared her throat, intending to say “not right now.” But one glance at Oliver’s pitiful, hopeful expression made the words stick.

Shane, who knew Layla better than anyone, read her hesitation perfectly.

Not wanting to corner her, he smoothly intervened. “Give it a rest, George. She’s clearly torn.”

With that, he walked over and gently guided a grateful Layla back toward the cabin.

The four men left outside stared at each other in awkward silence. George looked ready to scream in frustration, only holding back because it was Shane who had intervened.

He plopped into a chair with a huff.

Liam approached, offering a comforting pat on the head. “Whatever Layla decides, it’s her call. You’re not seriously going to bail on her if she picks Oliver, are you?”
