Chapter 180 Provocation
The familiar joke managed to amuse the guests and made everyone laugh, thereby lightening up the atmosphere. “Come on, everyone! Let’s have a toast!” Olivia raised her glass, but Eugene snatched her glass again and stared at Brian to imply something. “There is no use regretting things that were meant to happen. Anyway, Olivia has drunk more than enough, so I’ll drink on her behalf.”
Nonetheless, Brian only stayed still and glared at Eugene who wasn’t bothered at all as he continued what he had been doing. No one else dared to mess with Eugene anymore as they finished the ceremony without a hitch. Soon, Eugene approached a waiter and ordered some tea for Oliver. “Here. You should feel better after drinking this.”
Meanwhile, Olivia took a peek at those sitting around the table, feeling a little embarrassed as she didn’t know how to turn them down. Therefore, she decided to drink the tea without much hesitation. On the other hand, Kate noticed Melanie leaning forward to Nathan, seemingly whispering something to him. In the next moment, she was seen leaning even closer to the man with a bashful look on her face, thus Kate couldn’t help but think they were flirting with each other.
Instantly, Kate was overwhelmed by depression, so she decided to walk away to the restroom to have some solitude. However, it wasn’t long until Melanie came in as well. Deep down, Kate didn’t really like this lady, not only because she was Nathan’s girlfriend, but also she knew they wouldn’t get along with each other well. After all, it was easy for two women with clashing natures to fly into a rage as soon as either of them said the wrong word. Nonetheless, Melanie was deemed to be a honey-tongued lady who was good at winning a man’s heart by flirting. On the other hand, Kate was the total opposite as she was impulsive and ill-tempered. She would even get physical at times when she found herself at odds with someone. Therefore, it was understandable why Melanie’s meek nature would be the preferred type by men to her headstrong character.
“Are you alright, Katie?” Melanie caringly asked when she saw Kate standing near the basin top.
