Chapter 157

Soon, Eugene rolled the dice again and got seven pips this time. Although the odds seemed to be in the man’s

favor, Olivia reckoned she still stood a chance to get a number larger than seven. Then, she took a peek at the

dice. Oh, I can see ten pips; I think I’ll take the chance. Upon lifting the dice cup, Olivia finally emerged victorious as

she pointed at the glasses with wine on the table and said to Eugene. “Now, it’s your turn to drink.”

Despite his defeat this round, Eugene was still glad to see the lady rejoice in the game. “No, I’m not going to drink.”

Olivia was stunned by his answer while the alcohol took a toll on her head. “What? How can you do that?” Unhappy

with that, she pointed at him and questioned, “Are you trying to cheat?”

“No, I just want to share a secret with you instead,” Eugene held her fingers and said, but Olivia took her hand off

and replied, “Alright, fire away.” Upon noticing the lady’s reaction, Eugene was frustrated yet amused. Even though

he was tipsy, he could still think straight.

“I’m in love with someone.”

“Yeah, you’ve said that before.” Olivia nodded her head.

“Do you want to know who that is?” Eugene sounded like he was trying to coax a little girl, but Olivia was just slightly

tipsy, not dumb. After pondering for a moment, she knew something was not right with the man before her. “I…

don’t want to know!” Olivia’s reply rendered Eugene speechless and got him wondering whether she was really

drunk.

“Tell me another secret!” Olivia said, leaving Eugene disappointed. Why does she always keep her guard up against

others? Or is she only doing that to me?

“What would you like to know then?”

“Tell me about your brother,” Olivia responded after thinking for a moment.

“Are you interested in him?” Eugene asked as his heart sank.

Olivia stared at Eugene with a smile and slowly nodded her head while the latter only took a deep breath in

confusion. What does she mean? Does she mean she likes Brian? While Olivia propped her chin with her hand,

Eugene exchanged gazes with her, feeling his breath taken away by her enchanting gaze, as if no man was capable

of resisting her seductive beauty. I think she must be drunk because she doesn’t usually look at me like that.

“What is it that you’d like to know about him?” Eugene gulped and asked.

“Is he always alone?” Olivia uttered after a brief contemplation.

“Yeah, I think so,” Eugene answered.

Olivia sympathetically replied, “He is a poor little dude without anyone else to lean on, just like me. Oh yeah. Give

me a moment.” She then staggered to her feet and walked away. Worried that she might fall, Eugene followed right

behind her and saw her heading to the living room, where she took a candy box from a small cabinet. Upon seeing

that, he felt like a dog with two tails, happy with the surprise she had prepared him as he recalled the time he was

disappointed when the lady bought Brian some candies. Although it was he who made the first move this time, he

was still glad that she could remember his words. Soon, she passed the candy box to Eugene, but before the man

could continue to rejoice, she blurted out, “Give this to Brian.”

Then, Olivia returned to the dining area, leaving Eugene speechless and nonplussed. So, this box of candies isn’t for

me but for Brian? Yet, I felt I was on top of the world a few seconds ago. In that instant, Eugene was overwhelmed

by a sting of pain as he stared at Olivia’s eyes pitifully. She’s only met Brian a few times, and she is already so

concerned about him. “So, you want me to give this to Brian?” he asked, refusing to give up.

Olivia nodded and replied, “I think Brian cares a lot about you. So, if you give this to him, he is going to be so

happy.” However, Eugene only responded with a glacial smile without saying a single word. So, this is all about

Brian, all about making him happy. What about me? Does she not care about me at all?
