Chapter 1234
Chapter 1234
"I owed you a favor, so I can't sit by and watch you fall into a trap, can I?"
Olivia didn't care. "I haven't even asked. How are you so sure that I'll be cheated? Besides, even if I'm cheated, you won't help me either. Mr. Sorrento, this is really important to me. If you don't want to help me, I won't force you."
After that, Olivia turned around and walked away.
Looking at where she was heading, Sam couldn't help but frown because she was walking toward the cafe. Was she going to look for that stranger again?
Thinking of this, Sam stepped forward and blocked her way.
"You want to go in again?"
Olivia glanced at him and didn't say anything.
"You'd rather find an unreliable person who is likely to cheat you than to go on a blind date?" Sam narrowed his eyes. He really did not understand why Olivia would do this. Was she really so resistant to go on a blind date?
"Believe me, the probability of me being cheated is definitely less than being forced to get married!" After that, she blinked and crossed her arms on her chest as she looked at Sam. "Mr. Sorrento, is the reason you're stopping me from going in that you're going to be my pretend-boyfriend?"
Sam did not answer.
In fact, he did not want to choose either of her choices.
He had only met this girl in front of him a few times. Even if something happened to her, he wouldn't feel any pain or sorrow if he didn't know. But he was a human; he would feel compassionate.
Just like now, if Sam did not know that Olivia was going to do these things, whatever happened to her would have nothing to do with him. But now she was asking him to do her a favor, and he couldn't do it. However, if she was cheated under his awareness, then he really... Sam pursed his lips and said, "There might be other ways to resolve this matter. Since you can think of a plan when you asked me over, then you should be able to think of other ways as well."
Hearing this, Olivia felt a little ridiculous, so she simply stopped and stared at Sam.
"Alright then, why don't you help me think of a plan then, Mr. Sorrento? If you can't, you'll have to pretend to be my boyfriend."
Sam was at a loss for words.
Why does it feel like he had dug his own grave?
"So? Do you agree or not?" Olivia saw the dilemma on Sam's face, so she stepped forward, tiptoed to observe Sam closely. Because of this, the distance between them became much closer.
Olivia didn't find it strange at all, but Sam took a step back with a frown. "Wait, let me think."
Then the two wasted their time in the cafe. Olivia waited by the side while Sam thought of a plan for her. When she got bored, she simply sat down in a chair by the door of the cafe and ordered a cup of milk tea. She sat there leisurely and drank it.
While Sam was deep in thought, he noticed she was actually drinking milk tea as she sat cross-legged. He felt a throbbing pain in his temple. He was having a headache over here while she drank her beverage as if it wasn't her problem.
Seeing him looking over, Olivia stretched out her hand and waved at him like a cat. She said lazily, "Have you come up with something yet, Mr. Sorrento?"
Sam was dumbstruck.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
He looked at her helplessly. Olivia shrugged and said, "Looks like you haven't. Try harder then!"
Sam felt a headache coming. How could there be such a shameless woman?
Five minutes later, Sam went to her; Olivia had finished her milk tea. She looked up and asked, "Mr. Sorrento, have you figured something out?" Sam didn't answer, but just said, "You look so relaxed. You don't seem to be in a hurry at all. Maybe you can solve this problem yourself."
Olivia replied with a giggle, "I do have a solution. I'm a person who can accept the second-best anyway. If Mr. Sorrento is unwilling to help or can't find a way, I will find a stranger to help me."
Sam was at a loss for words.
Not only was this woman a rogue, but she was also stubborn. She knew that she might be cheated, yet she was still willing to take the risk. Was she a buffoon?
"To be honest, you don't have to be so resistant. I'm just asking you to pretend to be my boyfriend; it won't become real anyway. Besides, you think that this is deceiving the elders, but I don't think so. Because in real life, it's normal for couples to break up. If you really feel guilty, can also pay you. You can just consider it as a job; you don't have to care if you're lying or not."
Her words were like a hooligan's shameless acts.
Sam glanced at her, displeased. After which, he sat down in front of her.
"Does your mother know this side of you? How can you be at ease lying to your own mother?" "Why am I not at ease? can make her feel at ease for the time being and think that I have a boyfriend. I can also have the peace I wanted. It's a win-win."
Sam fell silent after hearing this.
Olivia, on the other hand, had lost all her patience and urged him.
"Have you come up with anything or not? If you really can't do it, just forget it. Time is money. What's the point of dragging it? I still have to go home."
"Don't rush me. Give me more time."
Olivia blinked and suddenly got up and walked to Sam. She grabbed Sam's arm and said, "Mr. Sorrento, do you still remember the last time you pulled off my hair?"
After saying that, she hurriedly squatted down in front of Sam to show him her hair as if she was afraid that Sam had forgotten about it.
She was rather close, so a faint fragrance traveled from her hair. Sam was caught off guard; he watched as she parted her hair, revealing a small piece of scalp.
It had been a while since that accident. New hair had grown back on that part of the scalp. The hair was fluffy, very similar to the hair of animals. "Look, my hair hasn't even grown back yet. I can only put up my hair when I go out. I can't dress up beautifully. It's all your fault."
Olivia stared at him as she accused him seriously. "So you have to take the responsibility."
The corners of Sam's eyes twitched. "Responsibility?"
"Yes, you're responsible for pretending to be my boyfriend. I'm forcing you now, so this means you're not lying to the elders. You're forced to do so. What do you think? Isn't this idea perfect?"
After that, Olivia kept blinking at Sam; she looked so proud as if she was asking for credit from him.
Sam only felt the corners of his eyes twitching even harder; even the corners of his mouth did too.
"What a strong excuse."
Hearing this, Olivia couldn't help bursting into laughter. "Right? I think so too. So... Do you agree or not?"
When she said this, she even tilted her head. The smile on her face and the light in her eyes were particularly bright and moving. Sam's lips moved, but he did not say a word.
She obviously hadn't dressed up or done anything deliberately. But at this moment, it seemed that all the light was directed at Olivia.
