Chapter 312 She Has No Luck Tonight

Old Man Nolan seemed to be taken aback when he saw his own tear landing on the photo. Hastily, he wiped it away

with the back of his hand as though he was worried that it might dirty the photo.

The corners of Olivia’s lips twitched twice upon seeing his reaction. Oh, my lord. While her son’s gift managed to

make Old Man Nolan laugh, hers turned out to be a tear-jerker.

Because of that, she gave Eugene an apprehensive stare and received a soothing look from him. It was because he

knew his grandfather was shedding tears because he was touched.

When his grandfather was a young man, he refused to have a picture taken together with his wife, let alone

wearing a matching outfit because he wasn’t used to expressing his feelings readily. Eugene reckoned it must be

one of his grandfather’s biggest regrets in life. Most people tended to postpone some of the most important things

in life thinking that they still had a long way ahead to go, but more often than not, the person whom they assumed

would stay by their side forever would be gone at the most unexpected time. By the time they wanted to do

something to make it up to them, it was all but too late.

Old Man Nolan was very touched because through Olivia’s photo, his wish which he previously thought could not be

fulfilled was realized.

In fact, he was really surprised by her gift because he had no clue that this was the reason Olivia had asked for his

wife’s photo. At the same time, he reckoned that she must have designed his wife’s dress in the photo herself as

well because otherwise, the photo wouldn’t have turned out to look so great.

Every time he spent time with Olivia and his son, he would always feel warmth in his heart. In fact, he really valued

a gift not by how much it was worth, but how much effort one had put in to prepare it.

It took Old Man Nolan a long time to recover from the emotional wave. He looked up at Olivia with some

complicated emotion surging beneath his pupils but he managed to stop it from overcoming him just in time.

“Doctor Maxwell, thank you very much for your gift because I like it a lot. I bet it must have taken you much effort

to prepare it, am I right?”

Doctor Maxwell? Eugene raised his brows slightly as it seemed like his grandfather was on the same page as him.

Olivia felt relieved as though a heavy load was lifted from her heart upon knowing that her gift was to Old Man

Nolan’s liking. “It’s not a big deal as long as you like it!”

At that moment, all the other guests were wearing various expressions on their faces in response to the scene.

They had no choice but to admit that Olivia and her son’s gifts had indeed captured Old Man Nolan’s heart despite

not having much monetary value.

Narrowing her eyes, Nicole approached Aleena discreetly and said to her in a voice which was only audible to them,

“Did you tell the man about this?”

Aleena answered in her frustration, “I did and I was just wondering why he wasn’t here.”

After some contemplation, Nicole pointed out, “How is he supposed to come in without an invitation card?”

Aleena looked enlightened at once. “You’re right! Let me go outside and check if there’s any sign of him.”

Just as she was about to leave the room, she was stopped by Nicole, who reminded her, “Hold on. Why do you want

him here since no drama is happening?”

Surprised by what Nicole said, Aleena asked her in an undertone, “What plan do you have in mind then?”

Nicole stared at her quizzically. “Didn’t you come up with a plan before this?”

After a long beat, Aleena explained, “I thought all I had to do was make sure that he sees her here.”

Nicole commented ominously, “That’s not enough to cause her any problem. Not only is she Old Man Nolan’s

doctor, but she is also the designer of the suit he is wearing now so it’s more than reasonable for her to be here.”

Aleena knitted her brows together and asked, “In that case, what should I do now?”

Nicole shrugged and said with a look of resignation, “Is there anything else you can do now? Are you going to make

her drunk and lure both her and the man into a room? That’s not going to work because she has really high alcohol

tolerance. I think there’s nothing much you can do today. We can only wait for our next opportunity.”

Despite that, Aleena was secretly brewing a plan in her mind, thinking that she shouldn’t let such a good chance

slip. Did Nicole just say that Olivia had a high alcohol tolerance? Would it be the same if her drink was drugged?

She was lucky to end up unscathed in the cocktail party previously, but Aleena would make sure she had no such

luck tonight.

Even if she failed to bring her down tonight, her plan would be considered a success if it managed to put her in

enough embarrassment in the presence of the other guests.

With that thought in mind, the corners of Aleena’s lips curled upward into a confident smirk.

Judging from her expression, Nicole was sure her words had worked.

Lara, who had been keeping mum, saw the need to make her presence known. “Doctor Maxwell, thank you so

much for your gift. Seems like you’re the one who understands him the best.”

Politely Olivia nodded at her and said, “Aunt Lara, you’re welcome. When I was here to take Master Merlin’s

measurements for the suit, he told me that he had never worn a matching outfit with his wife before. So, I was

inspired to create this photo, and Mr. Nolan helped me by getting the picture of his grandmother. Everything was

just a coincidence!”
