Yes, you will, Olivia thought to herself. However, she still put on a hurt voice and said, “No, I know that I’ve really made you angry this time. You should be angry. How about you give me a few slaps to vent your anger?”
As her eyes fluttered innocently, she hurriedly added upon seeing George raising his hand as if to hit her, “You definitely won’t bear to do that.”
Shooting her a glare, he eventually retracted his hand. Instantly, Olivia’s expression brightened, and she stepped forward while saying pitifully, “I just didn’t tell you because I was afraid you’d be angry.”
George remained quiet, his eyes as dark as a moonless night.
Just like that, he could only watch helplessly as the girl he had carefully protected got stolen away by that fool. Even if she had always told him that the person she liked was Eugene and not him, and even if Eugene would always shamelessly flaunt their relationship at every given opportunity, he had never let go of the sliver of hope in his heart as he had never witnessed things firsthand. And yet, they already had a child together, and to make things worse, Eugene was the father. How could he continue to deceive himself with how things had turned out?
What irked him the most was the fact that even the Rogers siblings belonged to Eugene. Did that b*stard save the world in his previous life? Why was everything going his way? Not only that but why did Hector fertilize Olivia’s egg with Eugene’s sperm? Had his sperm been used instead, would things have taken a different turn?
Fury, hurt, resentment, and a love he could not speak aloud were all forcefully suppressed within him, with no outlet for venting. Instead of being angry at Olivia, it was more accurate to say that he was unable to face the reality of the current situation and didn’t know how to face Olivia.
“You didn’t dare to tell me, but you’ve done everything. How are you afraid of me getting angry?”
Olivia took a few steps closer to him, piling a simpering smile on her face. “Don’t be angry, George. Look, I’ll help you wash that.”
Upon saying that, she reached out to take the lunch box from his hands. However, George dodged her hands. It was just a lunch box, why would he ask a pregnant woman to wash it for him?
Embarrassed by his refusal, Olivia remained rooted in place as she awkwardly explained, “Actually, I never thought that the three children would be mine and Eugene’s children. Perhaps it was fate, but a woman who likes Eugene attempted to use them to make me seem like had a messy private life and get him to break up with me because of that, but none of us expected to find out that they were my children from the DNA test results.”
George furrowed his brow, his eyes turning critical and guarded. “Who likes Eugene?”
“A princess in Nambahd…”
Olivia began to explain everything that had happened before.
“George, I know that I owe you too much. In my heart, you’re like family to me, and you’re no different from being my brother. Now that all four of the kids are Eugene and my children, while I’m relieved and also shocked that our fates would be so deeply intertwined, I’ll still keep my promise to you. No matter how many times Eugene proposes to me, I’ll never agree to it. As long as you don’t give us your approval, I won’t marry him.”
“Ha!”
All of a sudden, George let out a desolate laugh. So what if she doesn’t marry him? Wouldn’t she still be dating Eugene?
At that time, he thought that a haughty person like Eugene would not remain interested in Olivia for long. Although he knew how exceptional she was, so much so that he didn’t want to force her or allow anyone else to discover how perfect she was, the fact that Olivia had a child was not something that wealthy families would easily accept. Hence, he had made that request, just to tell her that they weren’t serious about her, and as long as she didn’t get married, she would eventually come back to him.
However, when he visited her again, he discovered that North was Eugene’s son. This piece of information completely threw him off, as it not only failed to make Eugene give up but also gave him a bargaining chip that he couldn’t ignore. Since then, everything had veered off its original course.
Eugene sat across from him, negotiating with him in a polite tone, and while George was. nothing more than unwilling, he was unable to refute the fact that Olivia did not like him.
