Super Wife's Three Babies novel Chapter 97

Chapter 97 We’re Not That Close

The interior design of the rooms appeared simple and reserved, but a professional could easily tell that the cost to it was on the higher end. With three rooms and two living halls, this place was relatively spacious. As soon as Olivia entered the house, she said, “Mr. Nolan, please make yourself comfortable. We will get dinner ready.”

Upon expressing his approval, Eugene took a seat on the couch, but when he saw Nathan was on the phone playing games, he urged, “Go and help out in the kitchen!”

Gritting his teeth, Nathan said, “But Uncle Eugene, I don’t know how.”

“All the more reason to learn it!” Ignoring Nathan’s complaints, Eugene drove him into the kitchen.

With that, Eugene and North were left in the living room alone. In fact, Eugene deliberately wanted some time alone with him and to ask him what seemed to be the matter. However, North was just playing games on his phone, completely ignoring him, not even sparing a glance.

Sitting right opposite of North, Eugene noticed that this little fellow’s hand reflexes were extraordinary! Kids nowadays are that skillful? he thought. Out of curiosity, he asked, “Do you play games often?”

Without lifting his head, North replied, “Yeah.”

“How old were you when you started playing?”

“Can’t remember.”

Drawing in a deep breath, Eugene was sure that this little fellow had something against him. “Are you not happy today?”

“No.”

Puzzled, Eugene had no idea how to communicate with this little guy. Usually, he wouldn’t get the cold shoulders from North, but today, his reply was exceptionally cold, short and brief. “Did I offend you or something?” Instead of guessing, Eugene thought he might as well ask him directly.

“We’re not that close to begin with. How will you offend me?”

Struck by the words ‘not that close,’ Eugene was breathless with anger. This brat, what’s got into him? Letting out a sigh, he said, “I don’t know whether we are considered close, but I do treat you and your mother as a friend.”
