Chapter 304 Are You Trying to Murder Your Girlfriend?
Olivia nodded at him. “Yes, it’s done. Let’s bring it to your grandfather and let him try it on.” George suggested, “Olivia, why don’t you invite Mr. Nolan in for a cup of tea?”
Despite feeling horrified by his suggestion, Olivia maintained a calm outlook and spoke politely, “Mr. Nolan, would you like to come in for a cup of tea?”
Although she was talking in a polite and formal tone, she was staring at him with her eyes laden with imploration and ingratiation.
Eugene cast a glimpse at George and tried his best to suppress the fury in him before he responded in a businesslike tone, “I’ll pass as I’ll be busy in the afternoon. So, let’s go now so we can get it over with earlier.”
With a look of gratification, Olivia quickly replied, “Well, let’s go now then.”
With that, she took the suit and said bye to George before heading out.
As soon as they were in his car, Eugene’s face fell immediately not because he was throwing a tantrum at Olivia.
It was because his mental preparation was reduced to nothing the moment he witnessed Olivia and George together with his own eyes. Despite having spent three days convincing himself to stay calm when he saw them, it took George only less than three minutes to ruin his effort.
He knew there was nothing going on between them and Olivia only saw him as her family.
In spite of that, he still couldn’t stand them being so close with each other!
“Eugene, don’t you get the wrong idea from our conversation just now. A few days ago, I tried to ask George indirectly when he was planning to leave but I think he could sense that I was trying to get rid of him. So, I had no choice but to tell him that I was only asking because I would like to bring him around if he was going to extend his stay. Please believe me and don’t read too much into this matter.”
Eugene nodded and responded, “Yes, I understand.”
Are you still feeling grumpy although you understand the situation? Well, I guess no one in your shoes would be happy.
Tilting her head to one side, she put on an adorable look and tried hard to please him because she knew she had been giving him a hard time recently. Curling her small finger around his, she cajoled, “Don’t be angry. I’ve always seen George as my family member and I know my own feelings. So, please don’t be jealous of him at this time, alright? You just have to put up with him for a couple of days more until he leaves and by the time it happens, I promise I’ll make it up to you.”
Even though Eugene didn’t say a word, one could tell that he had relented from the way he relaxed his tightly pursed lips.
