Olivia said, “Not bad. By the way, are you interested in opening a couple-themed restaurant? I went to one with Eugene the other day. The atmosphere was romantic with bland food, but it came with an expensive price tag. So, I presume it must be a lucrative business. Most importantly, I felt like the money I spent there was worth it.”
When he heard her recommendation, Brian became intrigued. “Where is that restaurant?” “It’s called Mi Amor and located at Misty South Road. They have such a creative interior. I think you should visit sometime,” she answered.
With a smile on his face, he joked, “Are you telling me to visit a couple-themed restaurant alone?” Unable to hold back her laughter, Oliva taunted, “You should hurry up and get a girlfriend, then.”
“Do you think it’s easy to find one?” At that moment, North leaned slightly toward Olivia. “Mommy, a young woman came and asked for Uncle Brian’s name and contact number just now.”
Her eyes lit up. “Really? Is she beautiful?” Nodding, he answered, “Very.” Their voices grew louder as they continued to talk. “Did your Uncle Brian give her his number?” asked Olivia. North shook his head. “No, he didn’t. He even wanted to throw her out of here.”
Feeling puzzled, she asked, “Why?” After letting out a resigned sigh, he explained faintly, “Perhaps he thinks he’s not worthy of that young woman.”
Pfft! Brian immediately spat out the mouthful of wine that he had just drank before he glared at North. “Hey, little brat, what are you talking about? There’s nothing between us, so there’s no such thing as being worthy or not. What’s more, I was the one who wanted to throw her out.”
‘It’s because you think you’re not worthy of her.” “How am I not worthy of her? I just feel that she’s too young. She’s underaged. Do you know. that?” “You didn’t even ask her about her age. How do you know she’s underaged?” Brian glared at him. “I have eyes. She’s not much older than you.”
North snorted. “Eyes can be deceiving. If you hadn’t known my mommy was twenty-eight, would you have thought that she has a son of my age just by looking at her face?”
Brian was rendered speechless. As soon as North said that, the crowd burst into laughter. “You guys should’ve called us over. After all, the majority wins!” Alex said with a smile. Laughing, Olivia questioned, “How does it feel to be defeated again?”
The frustrated Brian retorted, “It was your son who said I wasn’t worthy of her. I’m just telling him that I have no interest in ruining one of the future pillars of our country.”
At that moment, Nathan added, “Didn’t she only ask for your contact number? Why have you all thought so far into the future?” That made the crowd burst into laughter again.
“That’s because you guys are always playing matchmakers, Brian expressed. North replied, “We’re just worried that you won’t be able to find a girlfriend.” Curving his lips into a thin line, Brian retorted, “Save it.”
On the other hand, Oliva’s business was flourishing with her clothes being in high. demand. More importantly, this situation was under the premise that most of the public was unaware that she was Angel, the renowned international fashion designer. Otherwise, her business would be booming.
On this day, a tall man with a cold expression came into the store. He had a faint scar on his left eyebrow, which added some unruliness to his character. Sophia hurried over to welcome him. “Hello, sir. Welcome to our store. What can I help you with?”
The man had eyes that resembled a wolf’s as he casually scanned the space. “Where’s your boss?” Sophia replied, “Our boss is in the middle of something. May I know if you’re looking to buy a custom-made suit for yourself or for someone else?”
His gaze suddenly shot at Sophia as he emphasized word by word. ‘I’m looking for your boss!”
