“Excuse me. I’m sorry for startling the two of you.” Despite his words, there was not the slightest hint of remorse on his face.
At that point, an evident displeasure appeared on Olivia’s face. “Do you have the bad habit of eavesdropping on someone else’s conversation?”
Avery responded, “I didn’t eavesdrop. I heard your entire conversation just by standing here. You guys were off guard.”
Olivia had no excuse for that and could not come up with anything to rebuke. She had indeed been too stuck in her comfort zone and was no longer as alert as before. However, this man here seemed to walk on tiptoes and did not make any sound at all. She was not sure how much he overheard and wondered if he had heard the mention of Double Dragon Court.
Nonetheless, if he was just an ordinary guy, then he probably would not know where that was. As such, she probed him. “Do you even know where we’re headed?”
Avery glanced at her with an ambiguous look in his eyes. “I’ll follow you to wherever you wish to go.” She glared at him and replied coldly, “I’m going. back to the hotel.”
He smiled in response. “I’ll wait for you at the
hotel entrance, then.”
She exclaimed coldly, “Although you helped me out earlier, I’m not close with you, so please refrain from making jokes like this.”
He glanced at her with a bold and blatant tease in his eyes. “You’re the type to turn your back on your benefactor, huh?”
Olivia ignored him and bid farewell to Director Norris and the rest of the crew before leaving. hand in hand with Jewel.
Subsequently, they went back to the hotel and gathered some necessities. Just as they walked out of the hotel entrance with their luggage, they saw Avery standing there.
