Chapter 106 Playing Matchmaker
North was obviously disgruntled even as he reluctantly blurted out three words—“To pursue Mommy!”
At this moment, Eugene was in high spirits. He was actually gripped by the urge to hug North, but he was afraid that he’d scare him. “Didn’t you tell me to let nature take its course?”
North was rendered speechless. So, he really intends to just let nature take its course? “You can invite my mommy for a meal or a movie when you’re free. This is all part and parcel of wooing a woman from what I see on television.”
Eugene guffawed. “What about you, then?”
North had long since thought of a place for himself. “You two don’t need to worry about me. I can go to Nathan’s house!”
Eugene flashed him a reassuring gaze. “Don’t worry, I won’t allow someone else to snatch away your mommy.”
Staring at him, North reminded him once again as though he was the father here, saying, “Mommy detests men who are fickle in their affections, so you must watch yourself. If Mommy catches you with another woman, she definitely won’t forgive you!”
“I know,” Eugene answered. He knew that from the moment she talked to him about Ben.
“It’s all your fault for offending Mommy. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many problems when you two are in the same company. Now, you even have to find an excuse just to meet her.” North stared at him from the back, wishing that he could stare a hole in the back of his head.
Conscience-stricken at having ruined his child’s meticulous plan for him, he explained, “I just misunderstood your mommy. But I have a way to remedy it.”
North’s eyes lit up. “What is it?”
Eugene smiled mysteriously. “Don’t be so impatient. I’ll give the two of you a surprise.” Since he’d said as much, North didn’t pursue the matter further.
At night, North sat in the back of the car while humming softly, seemingly in a good mood. The corners of Olivia’s mouth curved. “What are you so happy about?”
North feigned calmness. “Nothing.”
Olivia curled her lips. He doesn’t want to tell me, huh? She’d actually noticed it a long time ago. Ever since he came back with Eugene, his mood has seemed rather good, and he has even been giggling from time to time. Now, he’s shaking his legs and humming. What else could it be if not happiness? “Do you like Uncle Eugene that much?”
