Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) -
Chapter 1295
Bang!
Brenda pulled out the chair next to Olivia and sat down. Olivia was surprised to see her mother's furious expression.
"What's wrong?" Olivia glanced behind her mom and took another bite of the chicken wing, then asked, "Did someone fight you for a toilet cubicle?"
Brenda was at a loss of words.
"Honestly, you brat. What should I even do with you? I asked you to look for your boyfriend, but you don't want to, and your boyfriend doesn't even want to come and say hi. How do you even have the mood to nibble on chicken wings? Can you take it more seriously?"
After that, Brenda poked on Olivia's forehead hard.
Olivia exclaimed, "Ouch!"
"Why look for him? I'm already famished."
Brenda said vexingly, "Guess where I went just now?"
"Didn't you go to the washroom?"
"Of course not! I went to the main table just now. Guess how Sam reacted when he saw me? Do you know what he said he was to you?"
Hmm? Olivia blinked and said, "You went to him?"
Then she thought about Brenda's question and asked lightly, "What? Did he say I'm his friend?"
He couldn't say she was his girlfriend, could he?
Brenda's eyes widened in disbelief when she heard Olivia's answer. "How did you know? Why would you think the same as him? Aren't you two dating? Aren't you upset at all to hear him say you're his friend?" Olivia had wanted to ask why she should be sad.
But on second thought, she remembered Sam was her pretend boyfriend. If she didn't look upset at all, she would be exposed.
With that thought, Olivia became dejected.
"I was just making a blind guess. I was right? Did he really say... he's just my friend?"
Olivia's acting was superb. Tears welled up in her eyes immediately as if she was about to cry.
Brenda was taken aback as she had never seen her daughter like that before. She frantically comforted her.
"No, don't cry, Ollie. I was just spitballing. Maybe he is too embarrassed to say it because there are too many people."
Tears rolled down Olivia's cheeks as she said,
"Mom, how could he say that? Aren't we a couple? Does that mean he doesn't like me?"
"No, not necessarily. If he doesn't like you, why would he come to the banquet? There must be a misunderstanding. Why don't you wait and see if he comes looking for you?"
"Okay then. I'll wait a little longer, but I'm so hungry... Can I continue to eat?"
"Eat then. Poor girl, don't cry."
"Okay."
Olivia sniffled and said, "I'll eat first. Only then I'll have the strength to talk to him when he's here."
Olivia let out a sigh and continued to eat. Brenda began to feel suspicious, seeing how Olivia managed to return to her normal self right away.
Brenda wondered what was going on. Olivia was obviously sad a second ago. Why did she look fine now? Was it her imagination?
Halfway into the birthday banquet, Olivia was still enjoying the food in front of her. Brenda suddenly spoke mysteriously, "Mavis went up to talk to Sam!"
Hmm? What was Mavis trying to pull by talking to Sam?
Was Mavis getting competitive like she was back in their school days after learning that she and
Sam knew each other?
At this thought, Olivia lifted her eyebrows and smiled.
To Olivia's surprise, Mavis was still determined to snatch the people around her. Back then, that senior pursued Olivia, but in the end, Mavis got him to fall for her instead.
If Mavis could easily get the senior to fall for her, what about Sam?
They were merely a pretend couple, but would he run off with Mavis too?
No, why would she think like that?
Sam had a person he liked in his heart. There was no way he could be taken away so easily. He was even unyielding when she persuaded him to pretend to be his boyfriend. Maybe Mavis might hit a wall this time?
With that thought, Olivia suddenly felt there was nothing to worry about anymore.
She calmly picked up a glass of drink.
"If she wants to talk to him, then so be it. She's not a goddess. I don't believe that she is capable of seducing every man on earth."
"Aren't you worried at all? Back in school, she used to steal your spotlight. She wanted everything that had to do with you. Now that she knows you and
Sam know each other, she probably wants to do something ahead of time."
"Then let's see if she has the ability."
Olivia knew Sam would not forget the woman he liked so easily. With Mavis's manipulation and Sam's cold-heartedness, Olivia was sure that things would be futile. "Olivia, how can you be so at ease?"
"Because I know Sam isn't someone others can easily steal. Mom, don't pay attention to them anymore. I'm stuffed. Can I go out for a walk?"
Before Brenda could answer, Olivia had already stood up, stretched, and walked out.
Meanwhile.
Mavis had cornered Sam.
Mavis looked at Sam like a shy little girl. She played hard to get while speaking to Sam.
"Mr. Sorrento, I heard you're friends with Olivia? I am her cousin. My name is Mavis."
Sam remained silent.
The girl in front of him looked gentle. She was completely different from when she was arguing with Olivia, even cursing her behind her back.
Did all girls have many masks too?
Out of politeness, Sam answered indifferently and turned his eyes away, no longer responding to Mavis.
Mavis had fixed her makeup before she came to Sam so that she could show her best side to him. Unexpectedly, he was indifferent. Mavis was infuriated. "Mr. Sorrento, I heard you came with Mr. Arnold. What is your relationship with Mr. Arnold?"
Mavis had to force herself to replace a topic and have an awkward conversation with Sam as there was nothing for both of them to talk about.
For some reason, Sam only gave Mavis a side glance, then shifted the gaze to the left and spotted Olivia.
"If you'll excuse me."
After that, Sam quickly got up and walked toward Olivia.
Mavis saw where Sam was heading, and she clenched her fists in anger, biting her lower lip hard.
After Olivia felt full, she went out to get some fresh air. She stretched lazily and yawned, feeling good.
She turned her head around as she yawned and subconsciously met Sam's indifferent gaze. Olivia's mouth was stuck open just like that. Sam said nonchalantly as his gaze traveled to her mouth. "Can you be more ladylike?"
Olivia closed her mouth and rubbed her jaw. Although she was carefree, it was still embarrassing to be seen yawning. However, Olivia was determined to save face. "How am I not ladylike? Isn't it normal to yawn? Do other women not yawn?"
