Chapter 138 Sibling Rivalry
Olivia subconsciously wanted to nod, but she suddenly remembered that she couldn’t move her head, so she said, “I’m feeling better. Mr. Nolan, you don’t have to keep coming here. I’m fine.”
There was still a toothpick in her hand as she had just used it to have a piece of sliced apple. She passed the toothpick to Brian, who then took it over and placed it on the bedside table.
Their action was natural and tacit.
Unlike the time when she was with Eugene, there was not a hint of anxiety and embarrassment on her face at the moment.
At that instant, Eugene couldn’t describe his feelings with words. He understood that there was nothing between them, but he just found it a little uncomfortable. Although he wanted to be like Brian, he knew that it was difficult, and he was destined to be a ruthless man.
“I’m done with work. Have you eaten anything?”
“Yes, Olivia wanted to have rice porridge in the afternoon, so I bought red bean porridge for her. She also ate a bun,” Kate hurriedly reported as though she was the carer Eugene had hired.
Eugene nodded. “What do you want for dinner?”
Olivia pursed her lips in embarrassment. “I have no idea. Don’t worry about it. Kate will buy dinner for me. Please go back if you’re busy.”
Eugene smiled in self-mockery, for she kept chasing him away without acknowledging that he was worried about her.
Brian took a look at Kate and suggested, “Your friend has taken care of you for the entire day. I’ll stay here tonight and take her place.”
Eugene took a deep breath in anger because of his younger brother’s suggestion. He hadn’t managed to come up with an excuse to stay there, so how could his younger brother say it before he did?
“I’ll stay here tonight as I have nothing else to do!”
Embarrassed, Olivia hurriedly said, “Both of you don’t have to stay here. There’s a carer here!”
Kate kept looking back and forth as she was amazed by Olivia’s popularity.
Two handsome men were fighting against each other for a chance to take care of her that night. If it wasn’t for the fact that Olivia might get angry with her the next day, Kate would happily let one of the men take her place.
However, at that moment, she had to speak out even if she had to offend the men.
“That’s right. I took a nap in the afternoon, so I’ll have the energy to keep her company tonight. As both of us are women, it’s easier for me to take care of her. Moreover, Olivia won’t feel at ease with you guys here. Don’t worry. As her best friend, I’ll take good care of her.”
