It was ridiculous for her to worry about his safety! Seeing her going silent, Christoff warned her again, “I told you not to drag me into this! If you have a death wish, don’t try to use me as your shield!”
Olivia glared at him angrily. “Who said I was going to drag you into this?” Christoff exuded a hostile aura, and his tone was aggressive. “We were tied together from the moment we entered the door. You are my girlfriend now, and I don’t care whether you have a death wish or not. I, for one, am not tired of living yet!”
Olivia took a deep breath and calmed herself down. He was right! She shouldn’t be impulsive now because she wasn’t Olivia.
Sensing her discomfort, Christoff softened his voice. “Let’s see what Eugene has to say first. If he’s willing to be engaged to Princess Azalea, you should just get a new boyfriend. Why must you hang on to him tightly?”
Olivia eyed him askance. He somehow gave her the feeling that he was gloating about the situation. With a suspicious look, she questioned, ‘How did you know Eugene was here? Was this your plan all along?”
Christoff’s eyes wavered before he looked her in the eye again while defending himself, “Even though Nambahd isn’t big, it’s still a country! You think too highly of me, Olivia. I’m not that capable of controlling how the royal family does things.”
Olivia merely looked at him. Even though Samuel Court wasn’t comparable to Promise Island and Double Dragon Court, they were still ranked among the top three in power, let alone a small country as Nambahd. Even other countries were intimidated by them.
Of the three major forces, which one did they not want to win over? Why else would Sirius give up his daughter willingly to win over Eugene?
Nevertheless, there was no guarantee that Christoff and Sirius didn’t conspire against Eugene. Seeing how the suspicion in her eyes only grew stronger instead of dissipating, he questioned, “Would I even take you here if I was involved in the conspiracy?”
