Chapter 974 Azalea Calls
Eugene looked confused. He removed the gloves and took his phone. He was immediately on alert when he saw Azalea’s name. He guiltily cast Olivia a look, only to lock eyes with her.
“Who is it?” Olivia asked.
He learned his lesson from his previous failure. Thus, he decided to be honest this time. “It’s Azalea.”
She felt her breath get stuck in her throat. It’s not a matter of tolerance. There’s more to it. She’s only calling him. I don’t want to make a fuss over such a small thing. However, she couldn’t help the shadow that darkened her face. “What does she want from you?”
Eugene quickly came up with an explanation. “I don’t know. I didn’t call her.”
He was worried that Olivia would get jealous as another woman was reaching out to him. He planned to call Azalea in front of Olivia when he arrived at Nambahd. Why is she calling me now?
“Answer it. Ask her what she wants,” Olivia demanded.
Eugene followed her every order as if he was a child caught red-handed. After the call was connected, he put Azalea on speaker. Afraid of Olivia imagining things, he flatly greeted the caller, “Hello?”
Azalea’s gentle voice reached him. “Is that you, Eugene? I’m Azalea.”
Eugene answered, “I know it’s you. Can I help you?”
Azalea cut to the chase. “Sorry to disturb you, Eugene, but I’m at Summer City’s airport right now. I’m afraid to take a cab on my own, so can you come pick me up?”
A shocked expression crossed his face as he glanced at Olivia and croaked in surprise, “You’re here in Summer City?”
