Only If You Know novel Chapter 4

Olivia went downstairs, where Caleb was waiting because it was already seven o'clock. She knows he hates her more than ever now that she agreed to go to this party with him, but only if he knows it's not true.

“Are you going to the party wearing this?” Caleb cocked his brow.

Olivia examined her clothing and found nothing wrong with it. She was dressed in black jeans and a hoodie. She knows it’s not appropriate attire for a party, but she’s not going to one anyway, so it doesn’t matter.

“Uh, yeah,” She said quietly.

“Okay. Whatever! I just wanted to let you know that I will not be your babysitter for the entire night.” He growled.

This made her flinch, but she still nodded politely. They drove for fifteen minutes in silence until she told him to pull over.

“What?” He asked, perplexed.

“I told you to stop the car,” Olivia said again.

Caleb stopped the car, and she got out of it.

“I know you don’t like me, and I don’t even expect you to, and I would definitely not ruin your night with my presence. So, you are free to have the time of your life.” She said from the window before leaving.

He was taken aback at first but quickly covered himself up. This is the most he has heard her say so far.

“Whatever. When do I need to pick you up?” He asked, clearly uninterested.

Olivia let out a sigh.

“You don’t have to. I will reach your house no later than twelve.”

Caleb drove away without saying anything. ‘Well, the conversion went well.’ Olivia pondered.

Olivia took out her earplugs and turned on her phone’s music. It takes 45 minutes to walk from here to her final destination, and it is now 7:20 p.m. So she starts walking and, true to her word, she arrives in 45 minutes.

She drew a deep breath and pressed the doorbell. The door swung open.

“Oh my god, Oli... wonderful to see you,” Madison said as she engulfed her in a hug.

Madison is one of those people to whom she is indebted.

“I am sorry for showing up unannounced.” She apologized sincerely.
