George couldn’t be bothered to listen to her nonsense. “Get out!”
Mikaela lowered her head and dejectedly placed the items on a nearby chair. “Alright, then. I’ve left the items here for you. I’ll leave now,” she mumbled. At that, Olivia said, “Take them away.”
However, Mikaela didn’t listen and walked out with the police officer. Olivia glanced at Shannon. “Take them back to her.”
Shannon nodded and took the items directly to the police car outside. “Mrs. Nolan said she doesn’t want your things.” At that, Mikaela muttered, “I already bought them.”
Shannon had also heard what the woman said and was angry. “It’s up to you to return them or throw them away.”
With that, she turned and went back to the clinic. Meanwhile, Olivia looked at George curiously. “First love, huh? Why did I never hear you mention her before? Where did you both meet?”
George found Olivia’s gossipy expression irritating and looked at Eugene. “Weren’t you going to take her to register for marriage?”
Eugene glanced affectionately at Olivia and smiled lightly. “No rush, eh?” George was speechless. He is so… annoying! Olivia continued teasingly, “Come on. Just tell me. Do you want me to ask North to look into it?”
George pretended to look disdainful, but there was indulgence in his eyes. “Aren’t you curious about everything? We were together for three years from high school to university. Then, she left me for an older man who drove a Mercedes-Benz. I came to Mastar because of her betrayal, coincidentally met Jonathan, and joined the Double Dragon Court.”
It finally dawned on Olivia. George had come to Mastar alone due to betrayal. It surely had to be heartbreaking.
“It seems like that older man did not treat her well, and her life doesn’t seem to be going well either. George replied, “Whatever it is, it doesn’t matter to me.”
“Don’t men usually have a special attachment to their first love?” Olivia asked before pressing on, “Have you really let it go?”
At that, George thought, Doesn’t she know who I can’t let go of in my heart? However, he didn’t say those words and instead asked, “Where did you hear all these things?”
Olivia pouted. “Many people are talking about it, and there was even a survey conducted. Ninety- nine percent of men can’t forget their first love.”
“Why don’t you ask Eugene if he has forgotten his first love?” George playfully trapped Eugene.
Eugene had no intention of joining their conversation, but George’s sudden cue caught him off guard. He smiled and replied, “Of course, no matter how many times a man has been in love, he always holds a special place in his heart for his first love.”
George seemed to have finally caught Olivia’s Achilles heel and hurriedly instigated her. “See? You should interrogate him more. I have to go now.”
Eugene chuckled. “What is there to interrogate? My first love is Olivia.”
Olivia tilted her head, laughing mischievously. On the other hand, George appeared disgusted, looking as if he had consumed something unpleasant. He remained speechless for a while due to frustration. He’s such a good man, but his mouth is a whole other story!
Eugene was worried about adverse changes in circumstances that may occur, so he kept urging Olivia to register their marriage. He couldn’t wait any longer.
He initially planned to register their marriage in Mastar and have the formal ceremony in Criecia when they returned. However, Olivia didn’t like the marriage certificates in this country.
Jewel was still recovering from her injuries, and they weren’t at ease flying back to have the ceremony. As such, they had to wait patiently for a few more days.
The children were about to start school, but Blake’s illness hadn’t improved so he couldn’t attend school during this time. As a result, it seemed like the kids had planned it all earlier-they wanted to wait until Blake was better before going back to school.
Although their academic level was advanced enough to join third or fourth grade, Eugene still hired a teacher to teach them specifically.
Ever since Eugene returned, he had remained in town to deal with Blake needing the bone marrow transplant before he had to deal with Mason’s death, Olivia’s pregnancy, and the Blood Rose all in one go.
He handled all his official business online, and any documents requiring his signature were sent through courier services.
