Chapter 36 Heartbreaker
Olivia was rendered speechless when she glanced at Aleena. “Are you sure you still can do this?”
At this moment, Nicole came over and carried Aleena by her shoulder. She smiled and said to Olivia, “Miss Maxwell, give her a break. She’s had too much, so I’ll bring her back now.”
Olivia raised her eyebrows. “Give her a break? This doesn’t sound right. I’ve just been playing along with her this whole time.”
Nicole chuckled. “Yes, my bad. What I meant was even if she got up, she wouldn’t be able to drink anymore. Miss Maxwell, you’re not only good with words but you’re also good at drinking!”
Olivia gave a soft smile. “The same thing will happen to you if you’ve been bullied as many times as me.”
Nicole returned a smile before turning to Eugene. “I’ll bring her home first. You guys have fun.”
Then, Nicole proceeded to help Aleena up. However, when Nicole finally managed to help her up, a disgusting alcohol smell came at her.
Without realizing it, Nicole let go of her, thinking that Aleena was about to throw up all over her face if she did not let go of her.
Fortunately, she let go just in time and she only threw up all over her body.
“Ah!”
Hands opened, Nicole had no idea what else to do while she was covered with vomit.
She pinched her nose and cried while yelling, “Now what?”
At this point, Hayden quickly rushed over. “Let’s take care of it.” As he spoke, he dragged her to the bathroom.
Meanwhile, Aleena was in a much worse position. After Nicole let go of her, she fell flat on the ground. The white cheongsam that she was wearing had a thigh-high slit, so under normal circumstances, all that was showing was her thigh and nothing above that.
However, after the fall, the cheongsam was split open.
Everything was in sight, including her white panties.
Eugene cast a quick and indifferent glance at Aleena and looked away before setting his gaze on Olivia. “Are you alright?”
Olivia shook her head. “I’m fine.”
Apart from her slightly red face, Eugene reckoned that Olivia still looked fine.
“Mr. Nolan, I’ll go and pick up my son with Nathan. You can stay and take care of her,” Olivia stared at Aleena who was lying on the floor as she spoke.
Eugene was rendered speechless. Since Aleena was not someone special to him, why did he have to take care of her?
Why should he be bothered by her since she was the one who insisted on drinking so much?
“No. Let someone else do it.”
He grabbed his jacket and said to Olivia, “Let’s head out!”
Olivia smiled gently and headed downstairs after bidding goodbye to the few people in the room.
Eugene chuckled as he saw how composed she was. He was certain that she was fine. After paying the bill, he got into the car. Right at this moment, he saw Nathan run up to them.
“Eugene, please wait for me. I’m going home too.”
Eugene frowned slightly. “Call a cab!”
Eugene responded, “Why should I—”
Before he could finish, the car had driven away, leaving him speechless.
Since when did Eugene and Olivia become so close? How could he leave me behind just like that?
In the car, Eugene began chuckling. “If I knew how big of a drinker you were, I wouldn’t have stood in the way.”
Olivia smiled. “I know you were worried about me but stopping me from doing so at the expense of hurting your friends isn’t worth it. I can’t let you do that to your friends, can I?” She raised her eyebrows while looking at him.
Eugene squinted and looked her in the eye. “Hurt whom?”
Olivia stared at him as if he was a heartbreaker. “Of course, I’m talking about the beautiful lady who was in the drinking competition with me. Don’t tell me you have no idea that she likes you.”
Once again, Eugene chuckled. Even though Olivia was not as drunk as Aleena, the alcohol in her body had definitely had some effect on her. Otherwise, she would not have talked to him in this way since she was still treating him coldly before this.
“If she likes me, does it mean that I have to like her too?”
