Chapter 306 He Is a Devil
Cupping his face in both hands, Olivia gave him a peck on his lips. “Is that alright, my boyfriend?”
Looking aggrieved, Eugene stared at her and lamented, “Don’t you think I’m the most pathetic boyfriend in the world?”
“You might be!” Olivia nodded at him solemnly and added, “You only have yourself to blame for falling in love with such a difficult girlfriend.” After a pause, she asked, “Why don’t you get yourself a new girlfriend instead to spare yourself the trouble?”
He glared at her furiously. “Are you goading me to do that?”
Olivia lifted both hands in the air innocently and pledged, “I swear I’m not!”
Eugene hovered his hands threateningly close to her armpits and asked in a frigid tone, “Are you doing this because you are so sure that I won’t be able to live without you?”
Worrying that he might start tickling her any minute, Olivia didn’t dare to move an inch. She tried hard to suppress her laugh and answered in a serious tone, “Of course not! I’m terrified deep down inside and I have to be constantly worried about our relationship because there are so many beautiful girls around you! If I don’t watch you closely, you might be snatched away by some slut any minute.”
Pursing his lips, Eugene remarked, “You’re really great at pleasing me.”
“I’m not buttering you up. In fact, I’ve not been feeling too confident about myself because I know there’s nothing about me that’s superior to any of those girls around you. So, I can fully understand it if you prefer them over me.”
Extending his arm to draw her toward his chest, Eugene confessed, “To me, none of them is as great as you!”
Olivia bit her lower lip gently but it did nothing to conceal the joy on her face.
Catching her expression, Eugene urged, “Don’t hold back from smiling!”
She then buried her head straight into his chest.
Eugene lamented, “You must have been sent by God to torture me!”
In response, Olivia landed several punches on his chest and snapped, “That’s crap!”
Giggling, he took her hands and planted a kiss on the back of them while gazing at her with his brooding eyes which looked like it contained the entire galaxy. In a husky voice, he whispered, “But, I enjoy the torture.”
His confession made her weak at once. She pursed her lips so tightly as though her thumping heart would jump out of her mouth uncontrollably if she didn’t do so.
This man was a devil.
If men were categorized into different levels according to how proficient they were at flirting, Eugene would absolutely be at the top level.
Generally, she didn’t think of herself as an easy woman but even she had no choice but to succumb to his charm.
His pair of dreamy, brooding eyes were enough to keep her mesmerized even when he was not talking.
No woman would be able to resist the way he was saying sweet nothings and with such eyes…
“Hmm… I think I should start thinking of the present I should get for your grandfather!” She couldn’t help but change the topic of their conversation.
Yet, Eugene didn’t loosen his hold and instead started drawing circles on the back of her hand with his thumb. “Your presence will be the best gift for him.”
Olivia objected in a coquettish tone, “Of course I can’t be there empty-handed. Your grandfather has always been nice to me and he really fancies North a great deal. Most importantly, he is your grandfather so I have more than enough reasons to prepare a gift for him, but I have no idea what he likes. What did you get for him?”
“A chess set. He loves to play chess but he doesn’t get to play it often now that he’s sick.”
Olivia had a sudden inspiration. “Oh yeah, I’ve got an idea but you must give me a hand!”
It was in the neighbourhood of Beverly Garden.
Kate and Jasper, who had just returned from Mastar, were exhausted both physically and mentally after going through a cover shooting marathon which had lasted several days.
Fortunately, everything went well because Jane had been quite easy to work with thanks to the fact that she had a mutual friend with Jasper.
In order to thank Jasper for his help, Kate intended to invite him over to her place to enjoy a home-cooked meal by her.
Unexpectedly, she spotted Nathan just right after she stepped into the residential area. A surge of resentment overwhelmed her and she frowned instinctively as she stood rooted to the spot.
Jasper, who had noticed Nathan too, knitted his brows slightly together before he stretched his arm and rested it over Kate’s shoulder. “Didn’t you promise to fix up something delicious for me? You aren’t allowed to go back on your words now!”
