Chapter 302 Torn Between Two Choices
“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

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?
“No one knows what’s in his mind. Perhaps he just decided to be back after losing interest in traveling around,”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGeorge responded.
Olivia let out a lengthy sigh in her mind, lamenting that her master had chosen a really bad time to be back.
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.
