Spoiled my CEO husband after Rebirth -
Chapter 55: Marriage Partner
Olivier's eyebrows cocked up in amusement as he gazed at her. Gwenda's heart skipped a beat and she blushed, her fiery arrogance vanishing. "You... um, let go of me, please?"
"Nope, I want to know what you mean by "your man"?"
Olivier's arm was wrapped around her waist, his hot breath gently wafting over her face.
Frozen, Gwenda dared not move. She stammered, "I... I was just talking nonsense. Could you please let me go?"
"Explain yourself first."
Olivier became overbearing once more.
Gwenda felt resigned and helpless as she remained stuck in this uncomfortable posture. "I was really just talking nonsense, please don't take it to heart."
"Then why did you come here?"
Olivier asked as he raised his eyebrows again, though he knew exactly why.
Gwenda said, "I came because your assistant called me."
"Oh? And?"
Olivier smiled, mirth dancing in his eyes.
Gwenda averted her gaze, her heart pounding wildly in her chest. Her voice growing smaller, she said, "He told me that your grandmother arranged a blind date banquet for you, and asked me to help fix it." "Fix it? Fix what? My bachelor status?"
Olivier teased her.
Gwenda's heart quickened. She was so nervous that she almost forgot how to breath. "No, he wanted me to help you get rid of these blind dates."
"Right, but since you've gotten rid of them, how am I going to explain to my grandmother about this?"
Hearing this, Gwenda was stunned.
"He's right, how could I have forgotten about this?" She thought in numb disbelief.
Seeing that she had frozen up, Olivier's eyes glinted with mirth as he rubbed her back. He then casually suggested, "Well, you could come home with me to deal with her."
"What?"
Gwenda felt an itch at her waist and subconsciously leaned back, only to be trapped by Olivier's arm.
Olivier gripped Gwenda's chin with his fingers and forced her to lock eyes with him, as he said in a mournful tone, "My grandmother has been pushing me for a while now. If I still haven't brought someone home to meet her, she might do something really drastic. Since you're here to help, why don't you help me till the very end?"
"But... but..."
"No 'buts'!"
Olivier cut her off. "I'm wooing you anyway. You'll be mine sooner or later, so it doesn't matter if you meet my grandmother in advance."
Gwenda was speechless.
"Where the hell did this guy's confidence come from? He's just so certain that I'll fall for him?"
"You haven't made up your mind?"
Olivier finally asked as he gazed deeply into her eyes.
Gwenda could not help but nod under his affectionate gaze. She only realised that she had fallen into his trap once again when he started chuckling.
She growled angrily, "Olivier Petit, you tricked me again!"
Olivier smiled smugly, "Don't worry, my grandmother's a wonderful person. She doesn't have any requests other than wanting to have great-grandchildren as soon as possible." Gwenda's face was red from rage as she struggled. "Can you just let go of me?"
Olivier's eyes sparkled with amusement as he let her go.
Gaining her freedom, Gwenda immediately sat up straight and glared at the handsome man before her.
Gazing at her with a look of hurt, Olivier asked, "Could you bear to let my grandmother yell at me before she sends me out on yet another blind date?"
Gwenda huffed and looked away, but her rage had clearly toned down a little.
Seeing that, Olivier grinned a little and rang the call bell. "Are you hungry? Shall we eat something?"
The waiter came over as he spoke.
Gwenda looked at Olivier out of the corner of her eye. When she saw how relaxed he was, she cursed him mentally.
"F*cking a*shole!
He does this every d*mned time! Trick me and change the d*mned topic!"
After the food had arrived, Gwenda only ate a little and lost her appetite.
Seeing that she had stopped, Olivier put down his cutlery as well and asked, "Are you full?"
"Do I really have to go?"
Gwenda mumbled sullenly as she tried to get out of it one last time.
"You have to pay for the mistake that you made!"
Olivier said with a straight face.
Gwenda looked more downcast than ever.
She dejectedly followed Olivier out of the hotel and got into his car that took them to the Petit Mansion.
On their way there, Gwenda did not speak as she was terribly nervous.
Finally, the car pulled up in front of the Petit Mansion and they got out of the car together.
Gwenda followed behind Olivier, her anxiety still at its peak as she said, "I'm meeting your grandmother for the first time. Is it bad that I didn't bring any gifts for her?" "You don't have to bring anything other than yourself."
Olivier held her hand in his.
Gwenda subconsciously wanted to break away immediately but was stopped by a glare from Olivier. "You are now my marriage partner. Don't blow our cover." Gwenda said nothing.
"Alright, let's go."
Olivier then led her into the family estate.
