Chapter 188 At Least You’ve Tried
Eugene looked like he was paying attention to the shrimps he was peeling, but in fact, he was
observing Olivia’s expressions. Watching her relaxing her brows in a contented manner, he felt that
doof food could attract women too.
Thinking of this, the corner of his lips curved up uncontrollably. Then he put a peeled shrimp on Olivia’s
plate.
While holding his plate, North was staring at the shrimp in his father’s hands. He thought that this must
be for him. After all, Mommy had been served soup.
But after a long time of staring expectantly at Eugene, the peeled shrimp ended up on his mother’s
plate without any hesitation at all.
Ugh, true love wins after all! I’m just an accident they had!
North sighed. Oh well, whatever. As long as Daddy can win over Mommy quickly, it’ll be a load off my
back.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEugene peeled the shrimps as fast as he could and delivered the second one directly onto his son’s
plate.
Seeing that both mother and son had already eaten their shrimps, Eugene felt an unusual sense of
satisfaction.
This feeling had never arisen in so many years. These two were the closest people to him, even more
than his brother!
After eating for a while, Olivia finally felt half-full. She suddenly remembered what Eugene said in the
elevator, so she raised her head and asked, “You said you’ve something to tell me. What is it?”
Eugene was stunned at the question. Something to tell her? I was just worried that she wouldn’t come
over.
But at this moment, he had to find an excuse.
“I saw you staring at Nathan and his girlfriend today. You look like you’re scheming against them.”
Olivia raised her eyes, a little surprised. “How did you see through me?”
“Kate likes Nathan?” Eugene asked.
Olivia was even more astonished now. “Are you a mind reader?”
Eugene chuckled. “It’s not that hard to guess.”
However, Olivia was in awe of him. “The uncle is indeed much more perceptive than the nephew. Your
nephew has been friends with Katie for seven or eight years now but still isn’t aware that she likes him.
I’m truly amazed at his denseness!”
Eugene asked, “Why not tell her to confess her love directly to him?”
Olivia blurted out without thinking, “Not every confession will have a happy ending.”
These words seemed to remind Eugene about what happened the other day, causing him to fall silent
suddenly. His expression was a little unnatural as he looked at her.
Olivia almost bit off her tongue in regret. What am I even saying?
She was about to change the topic when Eugene spoke up, “If you don’t even try, how can you know if
it will have a happy ending or not? If you tried and failed, at least you won’t regret anything. If he

This time it was Olivia’s turn to be embarrassed. She put down her fork and explained, “Actually, Katie
told Nathan about it before, but Nathan said he doesn’t like her. Today when Melanie told Katie about
her relationship with Nathan, Katie was triggered by it.”
Eugene nodded in understanding. He didn’t want to participate in Nathan’s matters of the heart.
After all, he still hadn’t resolved his own relationship issues. He really didn’t have the time to meddle in
others’ business.
But Olivia was still thinking about the matter and continued, “Actually, I feel that Nathan shouldn’t be so
insensitive to Katie. Maybe the distance between them is too close and they are too familiar with each
other. Perhaps they’re so close that neither of them would think that one is romantically interested in
the other. But then, it’s their relationship, so we as outsiders can’t very well intervene in it. I’ll tell Katie
to ignore him for a period of time to see how Nathan is gonna react. Will you please betray him and
come over to our side? Don’t tell your nephew about anything yet!”
Eugene chuckled. “Don’t worry, I will always be on your side!”
Olivia was slightly startled by his words. Why does it feel like he’s flirting with me?
North glanced at Eugene and Olivia, then put down his fork and spoon. “I’m full now. I’m going to play
games!”
