Eve buried her head, feeling uncomfortable, but couldn't help but listen to what Lola and Lauren were talking about. Those were the times and memories that she would never be able to participate in. Listening to Lola teasing Lauren, Eve herself was lost in thought. It turned out that Lauren was such a domineering person before, and he did so many absurd things. Eve couldn't help smiling as she listened and thought about it.
"Miss Davidson, you seem to like listening to our chat." While speaking, seeing the faint smile on Eve's face, Lola suddenly said something to her.
Eve was slightly taken aback. Her face turned hot, and she quickly lowered her head like a kitten that was caught. Her hands under the table were tightly clenched together. Her appearance was pitiful and cute.
As she saw her like this, a soft light flashed in Lola's eyes, and her smile deepened.
This girl was quite a match for Lauren who was maverick. One was extremely pure, the other was full of hostility. They complemented each other well, but it was a pity...
"She's timid. Don't tease her." Lauren couldn't help but speak for Eve. How could he not see Lola's evil intentions?
"What? Heartache?" Lola gave Lauren a sideways look, and said deliberately.
"Lola..." Lauren gritted his teeth and spit out her name.
"Don't call me by my name so affectionately." Lola smiled more happily, "It's not good to be misunderstood later."
Lauren was not a soft-spoken character. Seeing that Lola was deliberately teasing him, he didn't care about other things when he got angry, so he reached out and hugged her, and said deliberately,
"Afraid of being misunderstood? Then let them misunderstand."
"Lauren Osade!" Lola angrily called Lauren by his full name, "You are shameless but I'm not!"
Lola's happy and angry look made Lauren playful, the more she struggled, the tighter he hugged her, and they teased like no one else was there.
In fact, the two joked a lot in college, but it was not so innocent in the eyes of others.
Suddenly, there was a sound of slapping on the table. It turned out that Eve stood up while slapping the table with both hands. Her face was flushed and she stared at Lola and Lauren who were still hugging each other. Her mouth trembled for a long time before she uttered a few words,
"I'm not hungry, so I'll go back first!"
After speaking, she turned around and left. Her messy pace seemed extremely chaotic.
"Look, she's offended." Lola broke away from Lauren's hands and said gloatingly.
"Isn't this what you want to see?" Lauren glanced at Lola, but he was not angry. He waved for Stoffer and asked him to bring breakfast to Eve's room. In fact, Lauren ordered Eve's favorite food.
When Lauren finished ordering Stoffer, Lola looked at him with interest while resting her chin on one hand,
"Lauren, are you serious?"
Lauren was noncommittal.
"Interesting, really interesting..." Lola smiled inexplicably, with a hint of naughtiness.
"I didn't expect you to be tempted by such a little girl."
"There's something unexpected." Lauren said, admitting it.
"Mr. Osade, during the month I was in Mexico, I saw you change eight mistresses with my own eyes, and all of them are bright and attractive, sexy and charming. Miss Davidson is extremely pure, not the type you like." Lola teased him mercilessly.
"It is precisely because she is different from them..." That was why she was so attracted to him.
"But although you are tempted," Lola stood still, the teasing in her eyes faded away, "there are some right and wrong, and you still have to distinguish."
"How much do you know?" Lauren frowned, showing a bit of hostility.
Without fear, Lola smiled and replied,
"Have you forgotten what I do? I went to find Lucia as soon as I arrived yesterday afternoon, and then I met Arthur again, but they didn't mention you at all. I think you didn't contact him at all when you came to Athegate. You told me before that if you found out about Jacob's whereabouts, you would go to Arthur and explain that you came to Athegate for this matter, but there has been no action. So, I chatted with Lucia last night and found out that Nia's relationship with Eve. Lauren, are you going to fight against Arthur and Lucia for this woman?"
"I don't intend to fight against them." Lauren replied affirmatively.
"You protect Nia and conceal Jacob's whereabouts. Isn't it against them? Nia hurt Lucia. Even if Lucia doesn't avenge this, Arthur can't spare her! Lauren, what are you trying to do?" Lola looked at Lauren seriously and asked him.
Lauren looked away, stared at a certain point on the table, and said,
"I... met Eve by chance on the first day I came here. You should be able to tell that she is not in good health, but even though she is seriously ill, she doesn't complain and sigh like others. Instead, she respects life and is kind. And extremely pure. I was born to live in an environment of intrigue. I know why other women approach me, but she is different. She is probably the first one besides my mother who can make me care."
Seeing the earnestness and firmness in Lauren's eyes, Lola sighed slightly in her heart.
"Eve suffers from an incurable blood disease and needs Nia to provide blood for a long time to continue her life. I know that Nia is not a good person. I have already investigated her background, but without her, Eve would have no life. "Lauren expressed his difficulties.
"Only her blood can be used?" Lola asked with a frown.
"The two sisters have rare blood types and are biological sisters. I must save Nia's life until I find other treatments."
"I see," Lola stretched her brows and understood Lauren's thoughts, but she still wanted to ask him, "It's a fact that Nia uses her sister to restrain you, but what about Eve? Does she know that? Or is she willing to be used by her sister? Is she sincere to you?"
"You are the counselor. Do you still have to ask me this kind of question?" Lauren asked Lola back with a smile.
Lola raised her eyebrows, stretched out her hand and punched Lauren's arm, saying with a smile,
"I know that she is pure and innocent, so you don't need to show it off like this, but your persistence in love is comparable to Arthur's. He is the same with Lucia. I'm afraid he will never love another woman in this life."
"It makes you admire the relationship between them so much. It seems that you approve of Lucia." Lauren asked Lola intentionally. In fact, he also admired Lucia's personality very much.
"If it were someone else, I would not admit defeat, but the other party is Lucia. I am willing to bow down. I can't help liking such a woman." Lola said. Thinking of Lucia's peaceful appearance when she smiled, she can't help but laugh.
