A composed Eugene took a seat next to Olivia and said with a straight face, “Your aunt-in-law has a few questions for you.” Olivia glared at him as she thought, Why did this guy mention aunt-in-law? I’m not even prepared to have such a grown-up nephew suddenly.
“I’m not even married to you yet. Aren’t you being a little impatient?” Eugene chuckled. “I’d be lying if I said that I’m patient, but I’ll respect my girlfriend’s opinion. I’m always prepared, and you can marry me any time!”
Nathan was taken aback by the scene playing before him as he widened his eyes and exclaimed in his heart. Uncle Eugene is so smooth with his sweet-talking!
If he didn’t know his uncle’s personality, he would have thought that he was an experienced lover. In fact, Eugene did it so easily that it even resulted in Olivia giggling in a silly manner at his flirtation.
If I’m as capable as that, Kate probably won’t be mad at me. At the thought of this, Nathan felt even more depressed. Olivia threw a seductive look at Eugene, who constantly flirted with her anytime and anywhere. Nevertheless, she ignored him for now as there were more important things at hand, as she turned to Nathan instead. “Did you lend your car to anyone recently? Even to plant a hearing bug, an opportunity is needed, right?”
He immediately shook his head as he answered, “No, I’m the only one driving recently. However… I left my document in the car one day, and an employee from my company picked it up for me, but he returned very quickly. So I don’t think it’s him.”
“How long does it take to install a listening device? What’s his name?”
“Danny” “Get someone to keep an eye on the people he’s in contact with. It will be best to put up a show to lure out the person behind the scenes so they will show up by themselves.”
“How do I get about doing that?” Nathan. inquired. “This person’s motive is none other than to cause you and Katie to break up, but Melanie isn’t the only one. So, she must have someone manipulating the strings in the dark. What you. need to do is draw the snake out of its hole.”
“What do you think is on their minds? What’s the benefit if I break up with Katie? Am I going to date them instead?” Olivia pouted her lips. “I don’t think that’s entirely impossible. You used to have a new girlfriend every month in the past!” Nathan was rendered mute as he thought, This label is staying with me forever, huh?
“Did you pick up another girl again?” “No, I swear. Recently, I’ve been so busy coaxing Katie that I don’t even have the energy to pick up other girls!” “So, you’re only not flirting because you don’t have the time?” Olivia said nonchalantly.
He helplessly defended himself, although he felt he couldn’t explain this no matter how much he tried as he said in exasperation, “I mean, I didn’t pick up any girls. Can you understand the main point?”
In a severe tone, Eugene chided, “Watch your tone when you speak to your aunt-in-law.” Olivia leaned into Eugene’s embrace as she wore a provocative expression. “Exactly! He has no manners!”
My buddy is now my aunt-in-law. This escalated far too quickly! Nathan lamented silently, dumbfounded. With her head tilted toward Eugene, Olivia said snobbishly. “We should just throw him out!”
Eugene nodded in agreement. “My thoughts exactly.” Nathan was so shocked that he clutched the couch desperately and cried out in an exaggerated manner, ‘Oh no, please don’t! I was wrong, Aunt Olivia. I shouldn’t have talked back to you.”
He did not doubt that his uncle, who doted on his wife unconditionally, would do as she wanted regardless if she was in the right or not! Olivia and Eugene exchanged glances before collectively bursting out in laughter. Fortunately, North had finally left his room at this time.
North poured himself a glass of water and. finished most of it before saying, “Melanie is on a car to Worthersby.” Nathan asked in astonishment, “She’s no longer in Summer City?”
“Yeah.” North picked up an apple on the counter and started biting into it. “What do you think? Would you like to keep looking for her?”
“Yes! I’ll find her even if she’s at the end of the world,” he hissed through gritted teeth.
