Chapter 320 Does Your Brother Have a Girlfriend?
Finally, Eugene stopped in his tracks and examined her with a penetrating stare. “So, when are you going to stop hiding me in your closet?”
Holding his hands, Olivia swayed his arms and cajoled him, “I’ll explain it to George after I get home. I’m sure he will leave once he believes me.”
Eugene pressed on, “What if he refuses to believe you? Are you going to break up with me because of that? Olivia, you have to make a choice between the two of us because it’s inevitable that you will have to hurt one of us!”
North was so anxious when he heard that and his gaze shifted back and forth between Eugene and his mother. If the two were really going to break up, all his effort in playing matchmaker for them would go down the drain.
Taking a glance at North who was looking edgy, Olivia took a deep breath before she said, “I understand that but even that’s the case, I’d like to minimize the damage so that George can accept our relationship gradually. I believe he’s sensible enough to figure out everything himself and accept the truth, but we have to give him some time to process the information. Eugene, please believe that I will be able to solve this!”
In a calm voice, he countered, “Is doing everything he wishes your way to solve it? Why did you agree to go back just because he asked you to? Do you still remember your promise? Olivia, if I continue to let you have your way, I’ll only be torturing myself! Would you do it if he were to ask you to break up with me?”
Knitting her brows together, Olivia was eager to clarify herself, “Eugene, please don’t push me into making a decision and you’re making me feel guilty for some reason. I really have a valid reason why I’m doing this, but I have no time to tell you about it now. Can I explain it to you tomorrow?”
Eugene stared at her morosely without a word because he had no idea what to say.
In fact, he did realize that he was greedy when it came to their relationship because he was never content with what he had, and he was constantly asking for more from her. If she had not agreed to be his girlfriend at all, she would not have to be put in such a quandary and be so guilt-stricken.
To be honest, he was so eager that he had started picturing his life with her in the next ten years although he had yet to even pass his trial period as her boyfriend.
Suddenly, he heard a string of extremely light footsteps coming from the first floor. He first pulled Olivia to a more secluded corner before bending down to look in the direction of the first floor to find Ben and Penny standing there.
Looking panicked, Olivia mouthed, “Who’s there?”
Eugene answered her in the same way, “George.”
