Chapter 413 Why Did You Do It Yourself?
Kate gave Melanie a cold glance before tugging at Olivia. “Let’s go!” Olivia instructed the bodyguard standing next to her. “Send her to the hospital. I’ll pay for the medical expenses.”
The bodyguard replied, “Yes, Miss Maxwell.” She then left with Kate. Just when she exited the door, she received a call from Eugene. “Are you alright?”
Olivia sluggishly replied, “I’m fine.” He uttered, “Wait there. I’ll be arriving in 5 minutes.”
She didn’t reply and immediately hung up on the call. “The bodyguards were sent by Eugene?” Kate asked. Olivia nodded.
Kate commented, “President Nolan really cares for you. Although I don’t know how he made you upset, you shouldn’t be narrow-minded and just let it pass since he has done so much for you, especially if it’s not a matter that went against your principles.”
Olivia awkwardly replied, “I’m not narrow-minded.”
Kate asked, “If you aren’t, why did you ask me out for a drink?”
“Can’t I simply miss you?”
Kate pouted, “Would you have thought about me if you aren’t mad? You would have forgotten about me long ago.”
Olivia folded her arms across her chest and coldly stated, “You sound like I’m a disloyal friend.”
Kate replied, “No, you are not. You forget loyalty when you are in love!”
Olivia frowned. “If that’s how you think, I will have to ask my bodyguards to leave. You should settle this on your own.”
Upon hearing that, Kate instantly surrendered and hugged her. “Don’t do this. Olivia, I was wrong.”
Olivia snorted, “Say something nice for me to listen.”
Kate replied, “What should I say? Do you think that I dare to praise you nowadays? What if other people have their eyes on you after that? Anyway, you not only have a supportive best friend like me, but you are also beautiful, intelligent, loyal and righteous. On top of that, you have Eugene. I wonder where else I can look for such a splendid best friend like you.”
Olivia was speechless. “Why did you mention Eugene?”
Kate chuckled. “Eugene. Eugene is someone worth having. He doesn’t worry about food, clothes, and traveling.”
Olivia didn’t know how to reply.
Just when the two of them chatted and laughed, Eugene’s car arrived. He blasted the honk at the women standing at the entrance.
Olivia immediately spotted him and walked toward him. After taking two steps, she noticed that Kate was not following behind her, so she turned to look at her. “What are you looking at? Get in the car.”
Kate replied, “I don’t want to be a third wheel. You guys should leave without me. I’m taking a cab.”
Frowning, Olivia reached out and pulled her with her hand. “I’m asking you to get in. Why are you going to get a cab when there is a car here?”
Kate pouted, “Don’t you know? I don’t wish to see you bragging about your love life to me.”
“Why? Are you afraid that you will be agitated?”
Kate answered, “Yeah, I’m still not over my lost love.”
Olivia’s pace came to a halt as she uttered in a stern manner, “Then, we will try our best to hold ourselves back.”
Kate was at a loss for words.
At that moment, Eugene had already exited his car and looked at Olivia with worry. “Are you hurt?”
Kate smiled. “Look at her hand.”
He was frightened. “What’s wrong with her hand?” As he spoke, he grabbed Olivia’s hand. “Why is your hand so red?”
Eugene’s anxiousness made Olivia feel embarrassed. “It’s nothing.”
Kate chuckled. “It’s because she hit Melanie. She gave her about twenty slaps.”
He frowned. “Why did you do it yourself?”
Both Olivia and Kate were rendered speechless by his response.
In the end, Eugene personally drove Kate home.
Before she exited the car, she smiled. “It’s an honor to have President Nolan drive me home. Call me if you need me for anything after this—for example, coaxing your girlfriend. As her best friend, I’m still able to do that. However, if she’s too upset, even I can’t help much!”
