Chapter 987 Am I Bothering You

Just then, however, the phone rang all of a sudden.

Eugene frowned while taking out his phone. Seeing at a glance that it was a phone call from Azalea, he instantly

knitted his brows. I just promised Olivia that I won't get in touch with Azalea in private, only to break my promise

soon afterward!

Olivia saw Azalea's caller ID on his phone's screen. Although she couldn't help feeling irritable at seeing Azalea or

hearing her name, she didn't want to make herself a jealous woman, nor did she want to see Eugene caught

between them. Thus, she pretended not to care. "Just answer it and see what she's up to."

Eugene wrapped an arm around her waist. Putting the phone on speaker, he asked, "What's up?"

Azalea's gentle voice sounded through the phone. "Eugene, am I bothering you?"

"No, you're not. Just tell me what it is."

Azalea said tactfully, "I was just wondering if you have time to take me to the hospital to check my foot. It's

probably aching from all the walking I did when I came yesterday."

Eugene suggested, "I may not be able to go back now. I'll have someone pick you up and take you to the hospital."

Azalea hurriedly replied, "Oh, forget it, then. I can wait until you're not busy."

"Didn't you say that your foot hurts?" Eugene asked.

Azalea replied, "It's not unbearable; I'm just a bit worried. Just take me to the hospital when you have time for that."

Eugene said, "Alright, I'll take you to the hospital tomorrow."

"Okay!" Azalea replied excitedly. "Where are you, by the way? There's so much noise on your end."

"I'm outside. Today's a weekend, and I promised to stay with my kids."

"Oh, I see. I've never met your son before. Can you introduce us to each other one day?"

"Sure."

"Well then, just go ahead and stay with your kids. I'm fine, so you don't have to worry about me."

Olivia felt angry listening to Azalea's gentle voice. No need to worry about her, my foot! She just has to remind

people of her existence as if somebody's worried about her!

After hanging up the phone, Eugene quickly looked at Olivia and appeased her, saying, "Don't be angry, darling. Just

take it out on me if you're upset."

Olivia glared at him. "Forget it. She'll come to you often from now on. If I take it out on you whenever she comes to

you, I think I'll end up beating you to death before your kindness is returned."

Eugene wrapped his arms around her with a smile. "Oh, darling, don't be angry. I've had a female bodyguard

transferred here. She will probably arrive tomorrow, upon which time she'll look after and protect Azalea so that

she doesn't have to come to me for everything. It doesn't count as me neglecting her as well."

Olivia looked at him and asked, "Don't you think she just wants to come to you because she wants to get closer to

you and steal you from me?"

Eugene frowned. "No, she won't. I told her before that you're the woman I love whom I want to be with, to which

she replied that she understood and wouldn't destroy our friendship. She probably just has no one to turn to, and

I'm the only person she knew."

Olivia said, "Well if you say so. Since you're adamant about it, I won't say anything else. That being said, Eugene, I

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

have to give you a warning in advance. If she offends me or has designs on you, I won't have mercy on her!"

Eugene replied, "I know that, Olivia. Don't worry, I don't love her, but she saved me, after all, so I can't turn a deaf

ear to her reasonable requests. Still, I won't meet her alone unless it's necessary to give you enough sense of

security, okay?"

Olivia laughed while pushing him. "Okay. Aren't you exhausted, having to appease someone one moment and deal

with the other the next like a womanizer?"

Eugene replied, "It's fine as long as you don't think I'm a womanizer."

"I also think you're a womanizer."

"You can't think of me like that. Well, being in love with me is a little troublesome, but don't doubt my feelings for

you."

Olivia looked at him. Suddenly, she recalled having asked him a similar question around the time George came

over. He must be thinking at the time that I was troublesome, right? Well, we're both troublemakers, but he courted

me nonetheless, so I can't give him a hard time just because Azalea's interested in him. After all, he doesn't like her;

his feelings for her are just like my feelings for George.
