Chapter 296 Witnessed Their Reunion
Didn’t that woman say that Olivia will be attending Eugene’s grandfather’s birthday banquet next week? If she doesn’t go, it will prove that that woman was lying but if she does… I will go and see for myself.
Olivia didn’t say anything either. At that moment, she was thinking about how Eugene pressed her for an explanation in the car just now and she felt angry and aggrieved. George is a man that has been taking care of me and North for seven years, and he has liked me for seven years. How am I supposed to tell him that I started dating after a few months I arrived here? Not only will he be upset, but he’ll also feel humiliated.
The two of them fell into deep silence and it was North who first spoke up. “Uncle George, that woman is evil. She quarrelled with my mommy and even took my mommy’s money.”
Hearing this, George turned to look at the child and asked, “Who are you talking about?”
“I’m talking about that woman just now!” North replied before he turned around and glanced at Penny in the distance. George frowned slightly and looked at Olivia. “What happened?”
Olivia replied, “She’s the woman who prevented me from treating Eugene’s grandfather and insisted on performing a craniotomy on Old Man Nolan. Later when Eugene paid me with a cheque, she snatched it away and said that she’ll only give it to me after Old Man Nolan wakes up!”
George had a sudden realization and recalled that Olivia told him about this matter before. “You’re the genius Doctor Bailey. That was probably the first time you were treated disrespectfully, wasn’t it?” Olivia chuckled and replied, “You’re right! If it weren’t for the fifty million, I would’ve just quit!”
Hearing this, George chuckled and shook his head helplessly. He already thought that Penny’s unforgiving character was ridiculous. Even though the two thieves were indeed wrong, Penny was ruthless when she grabbed them and almost beat them to death.
After hearing Olivia and North’s words, he completely lost any good feelings he had about her. “George, what’s the matter?” Olivia asked. George quickly averted his gaze and said, “Nothing!”
“Then why didn’t you answer my calls?” Olivia asked. George quickly explained, “I was busy being a hero just now so I didn’t hear my phone ring. Later when I realized you were looking for me, my phone went completely out of battery!” Olivia had a feeling that the timing didn’t match but it was obvious that George didn’t want to explain.
Which was why even though she was suspicious, she didn’t ask any more questions. Instead, she coldly glared at him and said, “From now on, you’re not allowed to ignore my calls. Do you know how worried I was? If North didn’t find your location, I would’ve called the police.”
After hearing this, George hurriedly replied, “Okay!” As the three of them chatted, they stopped a taxi, got in, and left. Eugene had parked his car somewhere not far from them and he was staring at the three people who were getting in the car.
Earlier, he had stepped on the accelerator and drove away quickly. However, after giving it some thought, he recalled how Olivia cried out of anxiety when she couldn’t find North previously. The more he thought about it, the more worried he got.
Even though Olivia was looking for his rival in love, he couldn’t stand by and ignore her, which was why he secretly followed Olivia’s taxi all the way to the kindergarten. Then, he followed her to Muse Peninsula, and then to Central Square.
He had witnessed how worried Olivia was and saw their reunion! She probably never spent a second to think about me during all this time. However, the most incredible thing is that my thoughts are filled with her, especially her expression and words of anger.
She said that she wanted to date two men at the same time. I know those are not her true thoughts and I know that she’s not that kind of a person. If she was, I would’ve gotten her to date me a long time ago. However, she chose to provoke me. This means she doesn’t care about what I think at all.
Eugene felt his heart ache. Then, he pulled out his phone and made a call to Alex. “Come and have a drink with me!” Alex teased him from the other end, “What’s the matter? Did you break up again?”
