Chapter 186 Lucky to Have Me As Your Son
Although his words sounded polite, Olivia sensed a kind of dominance in his tone. She really didn’t want to be alone with him. Every time they met, she felt that her brain had burnt to a cinder.
“W-What do you need? Why don’t you say it now?”
Eugene looked at the woman staring at him warily and suddenly felt amused. “You’re tired. Go take a bath and rest for a bit. I’ll call you when the meal is ready!”
Ignoring her look of caution, he closed the elevator doors and went upstairs.
Olivia stared at the closed elevator doors and repeatedly sighed. What should I do with this man?
“Mommy, I’m sleepy and tired!” North dragged her away. “Let’s go back to sleep!”
Olivia agreed and followed him into the house.
After the mother and son took a bath, they fell into a deep sleep.
Some time later, Olivia was awakened by the ringing of her phone. Dazed from sleep, she closed her eyes, fumbled for the phone beside her pillow and pressed it to her ear. She connected the call without even seeing who it was.
“Hey.”
Her voice was a little lazy and sleepy, like a cat that had just awoken.
Hearing that, Eugene chuckled. He could even imagine her lying on the bed lazily right now.
“Are you awake? If you are, come and have dinner.”
Olivia blinked and recognized the voice. “Eugene? Uh, no thanks, I can just whip up something at home.”
Instead of persuading her, Eugene simply said, “It’s all ready now. I’ve made your favorite mustard-glazed pork chops, and I also have spicy garlic shrimp, pan-fried salmon and crab cakes…”
Olivia drew in a breath. Hearing this, she realized she did feel rather hungry. She had already imagined the taste of the shrimps and how spicy it would be when they melted in her mouth… Thinking of this, she swallowed unconsciously.
Of course, she would never admit that it was his tempting food that had made her feel hungry. It was only because she didn’t eat anything at noon and had only drunk lots of alcohol. Right now, her stomach was empty!
Besides, he had already prepared the food. It would be impolite of her not to go.
Anyway, there was nothing wrong with him. If she kept avoiding him, it would make her look bad.
After Olivia brainwashed herself that everything was fine, she readily accepted his invitation. “Sure, I’ll go get North now.”
Eugene answered, “Okay, then I’ll wait for you.”
His words were spoken in a deep and husky voice, which sounded fuzzy in Olivia’s ears and made her heart go numb. He is just waiting for me. Why did he speak so sensually?
After hanging up the phone, Olivia rubbed at the goosebumps all over her body. This man is indeed wicked!
She got up and went to wake North.
The little boy was still sound asleep.
Sitting next to him on his bed, Olivia whispered softly, “North, Uncle Eugene asked us to go and have dinner at his place. Do you want to go?”
“Yeah!” North answered without opening his eyes. He turned over and continued to sleep.
Olivia felt amused. “Then why are you still asleep? Get up quickly.”
But the little boy lying on the bed was motionless. He was still in a deep slumber.
“Your Uncle Eugene said he made mustard-glazed pork chops, spicy garlic shrimp, pan-fried salmon and crab cakes…”
Sure enough, both mother and son were one and the same. When North heard about the food, he immediately opened his eyes. After a while, he was fully awake and grinned at his mother.
“Mommy, Uncle Eugene made all your favorite dishes!”
Olivia glanced at him. “Don’t you like them?”
“I don’t have the right to be picky about food. I eat whatever you make.” North’s mouth twitched as he added, “Mommy, aren’t you especially lucky to have me as your son?”
Olivia laughed helplessly, “Don’t you feel lucky to have me as your mommy?”
