George paused for a moment because he was unsure how to explain it to Olivia, but he realized she probably didn’t care and said, “She’s my ex-girlfriend.” Olivia’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Your ex-girlfriend? Was she your first love?”
George nodded. “Yes.”
Olivia couldn’t hide her surprise as she swiftly moved from Eugene’s side to George’s, her eyes full of curiosity and gossip. “So, how did you two break up?”
He sighed inwardly. “She left me for a wealthy man.”
It seemed like a whole story had been told in just a few words. Olivia’s expression darkened instantly, and a disdainful smirk appeared on her lips. “Ha! Not only ungrateful but also a money-minded sc*m?”
George didn’t want to discuss her any further and replied vaguely, “Let her go later. I don’t want to see her.” Olivia nodded. “Okay.”
Eugene glanced at Olivia, her expression open and without a hint of jealousy. It seemed she indeed regarded George only as a brother and not romantically. He calmly walked over and took her hand. “Olivia, let’s get married later.”
Olivia was taken aback. “Huh? What are you talking about?” Eugene smiled, knowing she was pretending to be clueless. “George has already agreed. If you don’t believe me, ask him.”
With so much happening last night and his late return, he hadn’t had the chance to mention it. Only now did it cross his mind, and he decided to say it face-to-face without fearing the other person would deny it. Olivia was surprised. Almost instinctively, she looked at George. “George…”
George maintained his awkward and arrogant tone, saying, “I can’t let both of your children be born out of wedlock. Plus, I was just saying. Who knew you would foolishly take it seriously?”
Olivia laughed and reached out to hold George’s arm. “Don’t you know me? When have I broken my word?”
At that moment, the woman returned, and her gaze landed on Olivia holding George’s arm. After a brief pause, she averted her gaze and awkwardly apologized, “Um… I bought some nutritional supplements for Alvin’s benefactor. I’m sorry for misjudging you as villains earlier.”
As she spoke, she tried to hand the items to Olivia. Olivia didn’t take them. Instead, she slowly released her grip on George’s arm and said, “There’s no need. Your little gift can’t compare to my friends risking their life to save him. Out of consideration for the child, I won’t hold it against you. Now, please leave with the child!”
The woman hesitated, unsure whether to put down the items or take them away. She said again, “Take it. I know these things are insignificant, but it’s my heartfelt gesture.”
Olivia replied firmly, “I said no need. Take your child and your things and leave!” The woman looked at George once more. “George…”
George directly handed the child to the police officer who had accompanied her upon seeing her hands were occupied with the gifts. “Please hold the child for her. We’re still busy, so please do not disturb us while we’re attending to patients.”
The officer took the child and thanked them. “Thank xyou for taking care of him.” Then, he turned to the woman and said, “Ms. Fisher, let’s go.
The woman, Mikaela Fisher, glanced at George with a hint of reluctance. “You changed your phone number, and I’ve been searching for you for a long time. Can you give me your new number, please?”
George responded coldly, “No need.”
Mikaela stood awkwardly for a while before asking, “George, are you still angry with me? | had my reasons…”
