Chapter 170 A Friend’s Advice
“Why are you so excited?”
“Isn’t this something exciting? Eugene Nolan—the bachelor who’s the dream of countless girls! If you’re
with him… Oh god, I will be hugging a treasure now,” Kate exclaimed in exaggeration and even shook
Olivia’s thigh.
Olivia was speechless, for she did not want to be acquainted in any way with the comical lady.
Kate continued her celebration for some time before asking, “Hey, why do you look sullen?”
Olivia gave her a cold stare and Kate smiled in embarrassment. “I mean, that’s good news, isn’t it?
Why do you look troubled?”
Olivia pouted in good fun. “Kate, you’re disrupting my faith!”
Her reply made Kate guffawed. “Hah! You don’t have the faith to start with, but you’re accusing me of
disturbing your faith? Tell me, how did you reply to him?”

Kate was surprised. “Wait, you rejected him?”
“Do you think we make a good couple?” Olivia glared at her.
“Of course! Why aren’t you a good match? Look, he’s cool, and you’re pretty. A match made in
heavens!”
Olivia was again at a loss for words. “I really don’t want to talk to you anymore.”
Kate breathed in and said, “Olivia, Eugene is really a nice man. After so many years, I have not once
heard a scandal involving him in Summer City. This shows that he is a disciplined man. I won’t go into
his wealth, power, and good looks. You should know that he’s the best in all aspects. Even if we only
talk about how he treats you… Do you recall how he took great care of you in the hospital? Last time,
he even rebuked Harriet Grant at the party for you…”
When she saw that Olivia wanted to retort, she quickly added, “I know, I know that he just happened to
be at the site. Anyone would have done it for you, but Harriet is no average person. Even though she is
no match for Eugene, everyone has to be courteous to her. But did you see him having any mercy on
that day? Not many men would offend someone influential just for you.”
“By the way, don’t you think that you’re fated? Although your first few encounters were not exactly
friendly, you have to put trust in your destiny. If not, why would Nathan turn out to be Eugene’s nephew,
and why would you save Eugene’s grandpa? What do these serendipities mean if not fate? You can
argue with me as much as you want, but you cannot lie to yourself. Olivia, why don’t you give it a try?”
Olivia sighed at her friend’s persuasion. “Eugene is a good man, and that’s the reason I can’t burden
him.”
“Only you’ll think like that. I bet Eugene wants that burden on him badly.” Kate belatedly realized that
she had made a suggestive remark.
Olivia was tickled by her blank look and chuckled. “I wonder how much Eugene pays you for you to
promote him with effort.”
“Yeah, right. I should talk to him tomorrow.”

“I need to discuss my commission fee!”
“I was a little touched by your words before, but that feeling is gone after you made that materialistic
comment.”
“Don’t! You need to feel touched. Look at me; my life’s a mess, but I still take the time to worry about
your love life. How sacrificial of me!”
Not knowing how to comfort Kate, Olivia sank into silence. Kate stared at her. “Hey! Stop looking at me
like that! I’d think that you’re pitying me.”
Olivia took a deep breath and intentionally barked at her friend, “What’s to pity? Why would I pity a
woman like you who sells your friend out but still has a best friend like me around you? Get back to
your room and sleep now!”
“Olivia, my girl, I want you to chat and sleep beside me.” Kate went up to grab Olivia’s arm, to which
the latter shrugged away in a playful manner. “You’re getting over the line!”
