Chapter 173

“That’s too many flower baskets! Are these from the same sender? Who’s that rich to send this amount of flower

baskets?”

Not knowing how to respond to Nathan, Olivia stared at his two flower baskets, which was typical of his style. Well,

being thrifty wasn’t a bad thing.

“It’s Brian.”

Upon hearing that, Nathan felt a little embarrassed at his gift. If this were under normal circumstances, two flower

baskets would have sufficed as a congratulatory gesture—those were only for good luck. However, the two flower

baskets looked a little out of place among the larger baskets brought over by Brian.

What the heck? If only he knew about Brian’s flower baskets, he would have listened to the florist’s advice and

bought Olivia a horseshoe as a good luck charm.

The sight of the two flower baskets by Nathan was overshadowed in a corner, looking sad and pitiful.

Melanie’s expression froze as well upon seeing the sea of flower baskets. Her gaze toward Nathan betrayed her

disdain for her man.

The switch in her gaze happened over a second, causing Olivia to doubt her own eyes.

When Nathan looked at Melanie, she hurriedly smiled at him and gripped his arm tighter, appearing like a loving

couple.

Nathan was fast to adjust to the situation. He could not do anything to save his dignity, so he decided to ignore it

and chuckled, “Olivia, this is not much, but it’s my sincerity. I wish you all the best for your opening.”

Olivia could not help but tease him, “Thank god you didn’t buy a lot. I wouldn’t have had the space for it anyway.”

Melanie smiled sweetly. “Olivia, congratulations! Everyone around me is talented, unlike me. I’m not good at

anything.”

Olivia comforted her, “That’s alright. You still have Nathan. Anything that you can’t settle will be his work.”

Melanie took another look at Nathan with a loving expression. Feeling giddy from being praised, Nathan looked at

Melanie with his chest puffed. “You’re tired, aren’t you? Let’s get in.”

She nodded at him.

As the host, Olivia quickly invited them in, “Yeah, just get into the studio. There are places to rest in there. After the

ribbon-cutting ceremony, we will head to the hotel.”

When the couple entered the studio, Olivia turned around to greet the incoming guests at the entrance.

Suddenly, a jacket with some warmth was draped across her shoulders. She looked up to find Eugene’s familiar

face staring at her. “It’s a little cold. Put this on.”

Feeling grateful toward his care, she clutched at the jacket and thanked him. “You should head in.”

He curtly replied, “It’s fine.”

Peering down at her eight-inch heels, he asked, "Are you tired? Take a rest. Since I'm a stakeholder, I can take

over."

Olivia smiled at him. "It's fine. I'm used to wearing heels."

He didn't say anything more because he only wanted to hang out with her. If so, they'd both remain outside the

studio.

At the same time, a fleet of cars approached the studio. The leading car was a black Maybach, which rolled to a

stop at the entrance.

Everyone at the site was gossiping. “Are those cars coming for the opening ceremony?”

“Who’s that? Looks like someone influential.”

“Look, look, isn’t that Gillian Thompson? Jean Ford is here too. Oh my god, the superstars are showing up!”

“Yeah, Abby Elliot and Ruth Paxton are here.”

“Wow, Olivia sure is well-connected.”

During the commotion, the car door was opened, and Marcus Cohen’s face appeared. Olivia immediately went up

to him. “Marcus!”

He smiled at her. “Olivia, congratulations. Best of luck with your opening!”

“Thanks, Marcus.”

Then, he shifted his gaze to Eugene and greeted him with a surprised smile. “President Nolan, I didn’t know you’d

be here too.”

Eugene flashed a faint smile. “I’m a stakeholder of the studio after all.”

Marcus gave a meaningful response, “Oh, so you’re a stakeholder? If so, congratulations to you as well!”
