Chapter 144 The Fall
Olivia shot Kate a glance. Although she didn’t want to admit it, Kate seemed to have pointed out the truth. Rather than being afraid of Eugene, she was just nervous, her heart leaping to her throat whenever he spoke to her.
…
Olivia’s condition was fairly stable during her one-week stay at the hospital. Eugene had stopped staying overnight to take care of her, but he would pay her a visit every day. Meanwhile, Olivia started doing things she never thought she would do in the past.
For example, she would stay in the hospital garden for a while every day. To make it easier for her, Eugene got her a wheelchair and would even help her with getting in and out of the wheelchair.
Olivia found it awkward initially, but she got used to it later on.
Eventually, she came to the conclusion that she must have read too much into it. I guess that’s why I felt that Eugene was acting weird.
Would she find it awkward if Nathan hugged her? No! She would even make him get into a more comfortable position.
So why would she reject it when it was Eugene who did it?
Her embarrassment suggested that she had some unnecessary thoughts.
Instead, she should be forthright and treated him like how she treated Nathan.
Upon some convincing, she eventually accepted it.
After being discharged from the hospital, she spent two days working at her studio and finally had some free time.
All of a sudden, she felt that she should treat Eugene to a meal. Be it thanking him for taking care of her during her hospitalization, or fulfilling her promise, she should prepare a meal for him.
On the same day, she put on some makeup to get ready to go to the supermarket. Just when she entered the elevator, she bumped into Eugene, who was going to work.
Flashing a smile at him, she greeted, “Hi, Mr. Nolan. I wanted to call you and tell you that I’m going to treat you to a meal tonight.”
A hint of surprise flashed across Eugene’s gaze as his lips curved into a smile uncontrollably. I knew she’s going to treat me to a meal!
