Chapter 334 Refuse to Go
Meanwhile in Muse Peninsula, Olivia and George had been sitting on the sofa for quite some time but none of them
spoke. They had negotiated with each other for hours but they failed to come to an agreement.
George was worried about letting Olivia stay alone in the country. Although he had gathered that Eugene didn’t
seem to have feelings for her, his intuition told him that Eugene was important to her.
Even if Eugene didn’t like Olivia now, it was uncertain that it would remain that way.
Therefore, he asked Olivia to return to the country with him so he could take care of her in person.
However, how could Olivia agree to that? If he had asked her two weeks earlier, she would have returned with him
but now that she had Eugene, how could she go back?
That man had endured so much for her so how could she abandon him and go with George? If she did that, he
would definitely go mad.
It didn’t actually matter if Eugene would let her leave or not because she herself wouldn’t be willing to.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTherefore, she listed out reasons why she couldn’t go back with George from her career development, her feelings
to how she wished to be in her home country.
In return, George attacked her conscience and used her seniors and juniors to guilt-trip her. He even made a
thorough analysis of the benefits and advantages that she would have if she went back with him.
In the end, no one convinced the other so they were in a deadlock.
Taking a puff of his cigarette, smoke spiraled upward and shrouded George’s handsome face.
Actually, he seldom smoked unless he was extremely frustrated.
Usually, nothing could bring him down and he always kept a cool head. This situation must be difficult for him.
He couldn’t free himself from concern if he allowed her to stay here, but she refused to go with him.
On the other hand, Olivia was upset about this situation too but she didn’t have any better solutions.
She didn’t mean to hurt anyone but Eugene was right that it was impossible to have it both ways and protect both
of their feelings. She just hoped that they wouldn’t be startled by the truth and could accept it.
She could differentiate the feelings she had for George and Eugene.
Although she wasn’t sure how far she and Eugene would go, she knew that no matter what, George would always
be her family.
Otherwise, she would’ve fallen in love with George long ago!
Stubbing out the cigarette in the ashtray, George looked up at Olivia. “Do you have to make me use our promise?”
Olivia knitted her brows. “George, why do you have to force me? You know clearly that my studio has just started to
operate and North has just gotten used to attending school here. We’re really comfortable now so I don’t feel like
making any changes.”
George took a deep breath. “I really regret letting you come back.”
Back then, he shouldn’t have acted nobly and generously. He should have been selfish and stopped them from
coming back.
Olivia understood what George was worried about but she didn’t have the courage to tell the man, who not only
loved her for seven years but was her son’s savior too, that she had fallen in love with another man.
She knew that she shouldn’t have but she couldn’t control her feelings. It didn’t matter how much effort he had put
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmin or how early he had appeared in her life because one had to be in the right place at the right time and with the
right person, just like when it came to her and Eugene.
She had always thought that she was heartless and wouldn’t fall in love with anybody.
But at that specific moment, she agreed to be his girlfriend. She fell in love with him because of how happy he
would be when she was happy about the smallest of things, and how gently he looked at her and North.
George wasn’t inferior to anyone. In fact, he was so perfect that she felt burdened with guilt and didn’t even dare
to tell him the truth!
“George, you’re my brother and my teacher, and you’ll always be the most important person in my heart. I know
that you’re concerned for me but I want to settle down. I admit that I lied to you today but I couldn’t reject him
because Old Man Nolan is extremely pitiful. He has many maids around him but he’s actually lonely.
North went with me twice and Old Man Nolan likes him, so Eugene asked North and I to attend the party because he
wanted his grandpa to have a blessed birthday.
I didn’t mean to hide it from you, but I was just afraid that you would be unhappy to know Eugene and I are close.
However, you don’t have to worry because Eugene has a lot of admirers and he takes care of his friends. Since I’m
his grandfather’s savior, he won’t let others hurt me.”
