"Of course not!" Vera exclaimed. Then she understood where Quill was going with it and said hurriedly, "Okay, I won't ask anymore, so don't askanymore either." "What?" Quill raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her through the rearview mirror with amusement, "Can't take it anymore?" "Yes, I surrender!" Vera raised her hands and said, "Just keep your eyes on the road." In fact, Vera was rather pleased. At least after she drove Yulia out of the car, Quill did not ask about it nor felt sorry for Yulia.
He didn't even invite Yulia back to his car either. He really didn't take pity toward her.
Poor Yulia. Did she go too far this time? Forget it. She should have taken a cab instead of asking Quill for a ride and even said things to upset her.
She deserved it! Olivia had been troubled lately.
Since her Uncle Pollard met Sam at her grandmother's birthday banquet, he kept looking for opportunities to talk to Sam about a partnership.
However, he didn't know Sam personally, but Olivia did.
Yet, Pollard didn't dare to go to Olivia directly. Hence, he went to Olivia's parents.
He brought many gifts and said many kind words before explaining his reason for visiting.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOlivia wasn't extremely close with her Uncle Pollard and Auntie Fiona.
However, she had a good relationship with their son, Eason.
When Pollard first established his company, Fiona had to help out as well. It wasn't until they were more well off and had more free tthat they'd visit Olivia's parents.
Eason also took care of Olivia well back in school.
So when Brenda told her the request of Pollard, Olivia was in a dilemma.
However, she thought about her relationship with Sam. It wouldn't have been a big deal if they were a real couple, but they weren't.
They had a pact when he agreed to be her pretend boyfriend. But none of it had to do with his work.
It was a headache to deal with that.
"Mom, I also want to help Uncle Pollard, but Sam and I aren't married yet. Wouldn't it be bad if I interfere with his work now? Uncle has a knack for business, but the company Sam works for isn't just any company. If something goes wrong, we wouldn't be able to afford to pay for the mistakes made." "What are you talking about?" Brenda scolded her, "Who do you think Pollard is? He just wants you to help introduce him to Sam. Who said anything about interfering with his work? To be honest, I didn't want to say yes in the beginning, but your aunt cover every day with so many gifts. I don't know how to refuse anymore. Besides, they treat us quite well and have never made any requests before this, so how can I say no?" This was true. Even Olivia wouldn't know how to refuse.
But if she didn't, she'd be the one in a difficult position.
"I don't know how to bring it up to Sam either. If anything, you tell Sam. I won't." "You brat, he's your boyfriend, not mine. How can I bring it up?" "I am not going to do it." "Why not? You lied to me, didn't you? You two aren't a couple, are you? I knew it. I was wondering how you could meet someone so capable when you stay cooped up in your house writing stories." "Mom! Am I your daughter or not? How can you makefeel so worthless?" Brenda seemed oblivious to her question and continued, "Fine, I'll ask him myself. Ask him to cover and I'll do it!" Olivia replied, "No way!" "What now?" "It's a no, no matter what. Doesn't Uncle know that Mr. Arnold? He knows Sam. You can ask Uncle Pollard to talk to him. I'm hanging up." With that, Olivia hung up the phone quickly and switched the phone to silent.
How maddening.
Her uncle and her parents troubled her further before she could completely sort out her issues.
Her relationship with Sam was a bit rough lately, but Sam acted as if nothing had happened. So she was the only one who felt so.
How frustrating.
There was no way she'd turn the fake relationship real. She'd be done for if she actually ended up falling in love with him.
However, to Olivia's surprise, Sam's parents suddenly visited him.
The weather was getting cold. So she wouldn't leave the house unless she had to and instead wrap herself in a thick blanket, nestled in front of her computer with a mini heater on the side and a cup of hot chocolate. She was living her best life However, she suddenly thought of something and went to the bathroom to apply a mask. As soon as she finished applying, she heard the door open.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOlivia was stunned for a moment. She wondered if Sam had returned.
Then again, it was still too early. It couldn't be him. But who else had the key to his house? The hair on the back of her neck suddenly stood.
Could it be a thief? With that thought, Olivia looked around and finally went into the kitchen to pick up a pot.
If it really was a thief, she'd pound him mercilessly! "Marcus, did we get the wrong house?" However, what greeted Olivia was a couple's voices.
First was a woman's confused voice, then ca man's uncertain tone, "No... don't think so see the key still e fits the lock. If we are in the wrong house, we won't be able to cin.' "Then why does the place look like this? It used to be bare when we clast time. But now, it looks like it belongs to a girl!" "Ahem, could it be that Sam has found himself a girlfriend?" "Girlfriend?" the woman sounded sarcastic, "All he has in his head is work. There's no way he'd be able to get a girl when he doesn't even know how to please one."
The man coughed awkwardly and said, "Don't talk about the boy liken that. He is a busy man, he just tends to neglect things when he's focused.
Don't belittle him like that." With that, the woman began to rag on again, one worse than the next.
"Am I wrong? Doesn't he know how old he is? All he knows is work. He's already not good-looking, then he even got himself a scar on his face. Who would want somewhat that ugly? How in the world did I end up with a son like him?" Like RICH WOMEN? X These women desperately want a mature men! JOIN NOW *Waming these rich.
