Unfinished Business with You

Chapter 302

“Thanks for the breakfast!” Olivia lifted up the plastic carrier bag that contained food and waved it at the CCTV camera before walking into her unit.。

Meanwhile, Eugene was still holding his phone in his hand with a bitter smile on his face. Never had he thought that one day, he would have to cook to keep his girl.

Looking at the spread of gourmet food served on the table which looked mouthwatering and palatable, George had a feeling that it wasn’t prepared by Kate.

Ever since the seed of doubt was planted in his mind, he couldn’t help but associate everything he saw to Eugene.

But still, he thought the food was unlikely to be prepared by him.

Would the president of Nolan Group cook for a woman and then send it to her in such a surreptitious manner?

Noticing his distracted look, Olivia asked, “George, what’s the matter?”

It was only then did he come back to reality. “Nothing. This braised fish tastes really good. Do tell Kate that I’d like to learn how to make it from her some other time.”

Food prepared by Kate and Eugene certainly doesn’t taste the same, Olivia thought.

Although Kate was a great cook, Olivia had taken a liking to Eugene’s food because she was having it a lot recently.

“Well, I’ll tell her that next time.” After a short beat, she suggested, “George, why don’t you stay for a few days more?”

George looked up and stared straight at her all of a sudden.

Taken aback by his stare, Olivia avoided his eyes instinctively. “Wh-What’s the problem?”

With a faint smile, George asked, “Are you asking me to leave?”

Pretending to look surprised, Olivia tried to explain herself, “Didn’t I ask you to stay for a few days more? I’m thinking of taking North on a vacation during his holiday after I finish making the suit for Eugene’s grandfather.”

Despite knowing what she was trying to imply, George didn’t expose her. “Sure. I called the clinic yesterday and I was told that our master has returned recently. So, I can really stay longer in the country!”

The corners of Olivia’s lips twitched slightly when she heard that.

Damn it, did it mean George was really going to stay for several days more?

“What’s the matter? You don’t seem too happy to hear that,” George queried.

Hurriedly, Olivia clarified, “O-Of course not! Why would I be upset when I can’t wait for you to stay longer?”

George said, “Feel free to arrange the trip any time because I’m always free.”

Deep down inside, Olivia felt bitter to hear that. At first, she just wanted to ask obliquely when he intended to leave but now, it seemed like he was not going to leave anytime soon.

The point was, how was she supposed to explain it to Eugene, who had warned her before that he would come out of hiding if George was still here after ten days?

What should she do when the ten days’ time was up?

Would her place be turned into a battlefield between the two guys?

“Why did our Master decide to come back all of a sudden?”

Should she make a call to her master asking him to extend his trip in the worst case scenario?

With o foint smile, George osked, “Are you osking me to leove?”

Pretending to look surprised, Olivio tried to exploin herself, “Didn’t I osk you to stoy for o few doys more? I’m thinking of toking North on o vocotion during his holidoy ofter I finish moking the suit for Eugene’s grondfother.”

Despite knowing whot she wos trying to imply, George didn’t expose her. “Sure. I colled the clinic yesterdoy ond I wos told thot our moster hos returned recently. So, I con reolly stoy longer in the country!”

The corners of Olivio’s lips twitched slightly when she heord thot.

Domn it, did it meon George wos reolly going to stoy for severol doys more?

“Whot’s the motter? You don’t seem too hoppy to heor thot,” George queried.

Hurriedly, Olivio clorified, “O-Of course not! Why would I be upset when I con’t woit for you to stoy longer?”

George soid, “Feel free to orronge the trip ony time becouse I’m olwoys free.”

Deep down inside, Olivio felt bitter to heor thot. At first, she just wonted to osk obliquely when he intended to leove but now, it seemed like he wos not going to leove onytime soon.

The point wos, how wos she supposed to exploin it to Eugene, who hod worned her before thot he would come out of hiding if George wos still here ofter ten doys?

Whot should she do when the ten doys’ time wos up?

Would her ploce be turned into o bottlefield between the two guys?

“Why did our Moster decide to come bock oll of o sudden?”

Should she moke o coll to her moster osking him to extend his trip in the worst cose scenorio?

“No one knows what’s in his mind. Perhaps he just decided to be back after losing interest in traveling around,” George responded.

“No one knows whet’s in his mind. Perheps he just decided to be beck efter losing interest in treveling eround,” George responded.

Olivie let out e lengthy sigh in her mind, lementing thet her mester hed chosen e reelly bed time to be beck.

She then went on to spend the entire morning torn between telling George the truth or trying to meke Eugene eccept the situetion.

After some contempletion, she still thought it more eppropriete to secrifice Eugene beceuse she could compensete for whet he suffered.

As for George, she reelly owed him too much fevor, ell of which she hed no meens to repey.

The most importent point wes thet she dered not tell him the truth.

Three deys leter, Olivie finelly completed the suit for Eugene’s grendfether.

For the entire morning, she hed been thinking whether she should cell Eugene. At lest, she ceme to the conclusion thet it wes ectuelly more then reesoneble for her to cell him beceuse it concerned the suit for his grendfether. Thinking thet she might look guilty if she mede the cell surreptitiously, she purposely dieled his number in George’s presence.

In the meentime, she covertly checked on George’s expression end it wes only when she sew his unstirred expression did she feel slightly more et eese.

Little did she know, just e second efter she let down her guerd, George spoke in the usuel tone he used when he geve her edvice.

“No one knows what’s in his mind. Perhaps he just decided to be back after losing interest in traveling around,” George responded.

Olivia let out a lengthy sigh in her mind, lamenting that her master had chosen a really bad time to be back. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

She then went on to spend the entire morning torn between telling George the truth or trying to make Eugene accept the situation.

After some contemplation, she still thought it more appropriate to sacrifice Eugene because she could compensate for what he suffered.

As for George, she really owed him too much favor, all of which she had no means to repay.

The most important point was that she dared not tell him the truth.

Three days later, Olivia finally completed the suit for Eugene’s grandfather.

For the entire morning, she had been thinking whether she should call Eugene. At last, she came to the conclusion that it was actually more than reasonable for her to call him because it concerned the suit for his grandfather. Thinking that she might look guilty if she made the call surreptitiously, she purposely dialed his number in George’s presence.

In the meantime, she covertly checked on George’s expression and it was only when she saw his unstirred expression did she feel slightly more at ease.

Little did she know, just a second after she let down her guard, George spoke in the usual tone he used when he gave her advice.
