Outside, Olive Steele handed the car key to Alan Hoyle, “Drive safe.”
Alan gave her a hug, “Your parents started to accept me. In my opinion, we can get registered
tomorrow, what do you say?”
“There’s no hurry for that.” Olive leaned her head against his chest.
“Well, at least I am.” Alan gently caressing her hair, “So that I can stay for the night at your house.”
“Knock it off, you.” Olive twisted his skin in the arm slightly.
“What? I meant sleeping on the couch.” He looked at her blushing face and smiled.
“Asshole.” She punched him in the chest.
“Well, on the couch with you.” Alan took her hand and kissed it, “For real, honey, let’s do it tomorrow, or
I don’t feel reassuring even hugging you to sleep at night. Please?”
Olive looked at him, smiling, “But I really can’t. There’s an important meeting tomorrow.”
“The day after tomorrow, then. Okay, deal.”
“Oh, just go, you.”
Watching his car moving away, Olive turned around and found Chloe Malan coming over in a hurry.
“Isn’t it too early for a club right now?”
“There’s a show I need to catch up.”
“Well, don’t stay long after it’s done.”
“Got it, you sweet, happy, little sister of mine.” Chloe rubbed her head before striding toward the bus
station.
“Olive?” She stopped and turned around all of a sudden.
“Yeah?” Olive turned to her as well.
“Nothing, I’m just testing if you are still in your fantasy, hahaha...”
“Oh, come here.” Olive laughed, too and charged to her.
“Ciao!” Chloe jammed herself into the bus stopped at the roadside at once and waved at her.
She was going to tell Olive that Ivy Aldington was in a bad mood, but after seeing the smiling face of
Olive’s, she gave up.
It would not change anything even if she said so.
And it looked like Ivy had to learn to deal with it then. At least, that was how the world worked.
Back then, she loved Bruce Lynn and breaking up with him almost killed her, but still, here she was,
breathing and alive.
The bus was stop-and-go. The passengers entered and exited. While feeling the breeze, she was
relaxed and relieved. Well, she was relaxed and relieved without reminding herself what happened this
morning.
Chloe got off the bus earlier, because she was not catching up on a show at all. She just did not want
to meet the stupid kid.
Everyone had their little secrets, for her, it was the one-night stand with Yang Yu.
Just now, when Olive went downstairs with Alan, she got the call from Yang Yu.
That kid was impolite as usual, “I gotta something to tell you, old woman. Do you want me in your
house or you come to me? I know where you live anyway.”
It was almost a threat to her.
“Wait for a few minutes, I’ll come to you later.” There was no way she would allow him to talk bullshit in
her home, so she acted like she was calm in front of Olive’s parents.
Yang seemed to be satisfied with her reply while she would never go to him as he wanted. After
hanging up the phone, she told Olive’s parents and left quickly.
She did not intend to meet him, at all, forever. He was like the sword of Damocles hanging over her
head and just could not leave her alone.
Knock knock.
Back at Olive’s apartment, Aoba Hoyle knocked on the door after waiting for Chloe for ten minutes.
“Excuse me, is Chloe at home?” The door was opened and he put on a gentle smile at once.
Olive’s mother met him last time, so she answered him honestly.
While taking bath with Annie, Olive knew nothing about this.
Aoba went back to his apartment, feeling down. He did not understand why Chloe hid from him.
Because of that night? Really?
While in fact, twenty-four hours ago, his mother called him to ask when he would take his brother back
to Jiangcheng City.
As for now, his brother did not go back, and he wanted to stay here as well.
This city was no good than Jiangcheng, but there was a woman he was interested in.
