Chapter 415 His Prospective Sister-in-Law
Even Eugene was eloquent when it came to dishing out sweet nothings. Afterward, the two of them went to buy
some noodles. Just as Olivia had promised, she began cooking upon returning home.
“Eugene, why don’t you give Brian a call and invite him over? I’ll show you what I’m capable of today.” Then,
Eugene gave North a doubtful look, using his eyes to ask, ‘Is she serious?’
North replied in a calm and easy-going manner, “Relax; the noodles my mommy makes are pretty good.”
Upon hearing those words, Eugene felt relieved. “I seem to recall you saying that your mommy is good at making
three dishes. One was egg-fried rice, and another was stir-fried tomato with scrambled eggs. Are these noodles her
third specialty?”
North nodded in response. “I survived until now all thanks to these three specialties!” Eugene burst out laughing
and ruffled North’s head. “These three dishes made my son into such a smart boy.”

Then, Eugene smiled. “Your mommy said that she wasn’t angry.”
Hearing those words, North shook his head precociously. “Women always say things they don’t mean.”
Thus, Eugene found himself at a loss for how to respond. Isn’t this child a little too mature for his age? “Son, are
there many girls hitting on you at the kindergarten?”
North scowled fiercely in response. “Isn’t that obvious?”
Looking at North, Eugene felt speechless. Fine. My son is so excellent; it’d be weird if he didn’t have any admirers!
Watching his father deep in thought for one second, and snickering to himself in the next, North couldn’t resist
asking, “Didn’t Mommy ask you to call Uncle Brian?”
Eugene came back to his senses, saying, “That’s right; it nearly slipped my mind.” As he spoke, he took out his
phone and called Brian.
Meanwhile, North shook his head wordlessly at Eugene. What would Daddy do if he didn’t have me?
After receiving treatment from Olivia for a week, Brian was feeling much better. Even if he slept all night, his head
didn’t hurt as much anymore when he woke up in the morning. Moreover, despite learning that Olivia had been
involved in a fight at the bar recently and threw a small tantrum because nobody stepped forward to help her, he
didn’t get dizzy or suffer from a headache.
Recently, he had been in constant contact with Eugene. Thus, the scales in his heart were slowly tipping in Eugene’s
favor, especially when he saw the sweet interactions between Eugene and Olivia. They gave him a heartwarming
feeling—this was his home, and they were his elder brother and sister-in-law. For that reason, he had secretly
buried the feelings he held for Olivia.
At first, he had been very unwilling to give up on her. He had been afraid of approaching her in the beginning lest
he brought harm on her. Later, he learned that Eugene was courting her too. Despite his worries, he began to sink
deeper in love with her. Frankly, everything he warned Eugene about was for himself too. Thus, he knew that if he
really loved her, he should keep his distance from her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfterward, Eugene claimed that she was the woman he had been searching for—for seven whole years. At that
moment, Brian felt remorseful. He should have snatched her away without hesitation before that fact came to light.
After all, Eugene had had no clue at the time.
However, Brian then became aware that no matter how early he had appeared in her life, he could never meet her
earlier than his brother, who had met her seven years ago. If Eugene had not fallen in love with her seven years
ago, he wouldn’t have spent all these years searching for her, nor remained single for so long.
Therefore, Brian understood clearly that she was his prospective sister-in-law—she was somebody he could never
covet no matter how strong his feelings for her!
Brian rang the doorbell, and Eugene answered the door. “Come on in! We’re waiting for you!” Then, Brian handed
over two bottles of red wine that he had brought over.
Taking them from Brian, Eugene glanced at them and said disapprovingly, “Aren’t you on medication right now?
You’re not allowed to drink!” He was now part of a traditional medicine practitioner’s family, so he had learned
some of the basics.
Brian glared at him in return. “It’s for Olivia.” Eugene was rendered speechless. Yeah, right! As if!
“Brian, you’re here.” Olivia greeted Brian from inside the house. Thus, Brian replied and went inside. Olivia’s
sesame noodles were ready.
