Chapter 157 Give This to Brian
Soon, Eugene rolled the dice again and got seven pips this time. Although the odds seemed to be in
the man’s favor, Olivia reckoned she still stood a chance to get a number larger than seven. Then, she
took a peek at the dice. Oh, I can see ten pips; I think I’ll take the chance. Upon lifting the dice cup,
Olivia finally emerged victorious as she pointed at the glasses with wine on the table and said to
Eugene. “Now, it’s your turn to drink.”
Despite his defeat this round, Eugene was still glad to see the lady rejoice in the game. “No, I’m not
going to drink.” Olivia was stunned by his answer while the alcohol took a toll on her head. “What? How
can you do that?” Unhappy with that, she pointed at him and questioned, “Are you trying to cheat?”
“No, I just want to share a secret with you instead,” Eugene held her fingers and said, but Olivia took
her hand off and replied, “Alright, fire away.” Upon noticing the lady’s reaction, Eugene was frustrated

“I’m in love with someone.”
“Yeah, you’ve said that before.” Olivia nodded her head.
“Do you want to know who that is?” Eugene sounded like he was trying to coax a little girl, but Olivia
was just slightly tipsy, not dumb. After pondering for a moment, she knew something was not right with
the man before her. “I… don’t want to know!” Olivia’s reply rendered Eugene speechless and got him
wondering whether she was really drunk.
“Tell me another secret!” Olivia said, leaving Eugene disappointed. Why does she always keep her
guard up against others? Or is she only doing that to me?
“What would you like to know then?”
“Tell me about your brother,” Olivia responded after thinking for a moment.
“Are you interested in him?” Eugene asked as his heart sank.
Olivia stared at Eugene with a smile and slowly nodded her head while the latter only took a deep
breath in confusion. What does she mean? Does she mean she likes Brian? While Olivia propped her
chin with her hand, Eugene exchanged gazes with her, feeling his breath taken away by her enchanting
gaze, as if no man was capable of resisting her seductive beauty. I think she must be drunk because
she doesn’t usually look at me like that.
“What is it that you’d like to know about him?” Eugene gulped and asked.
“Is he always alone?” Olivia uttered after a brief contemplation.
“Yeah, I think so,” Eugene answered.
Olivia sympathetically replied, “He is a poor little dude without anyone else to lean on, just like me. Oh
yeah. Give me a moment.” She then staggered to her feet and walked away. Worried that she might
fall, Eugene followed right behind her and saw her heading to the living room, where she took a candy
box from a small cabinet.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUpon seeing that, he felt like a dog with two tails, happy with the surprise she had prepared him as he
recalled the time he was disappointed when the lady bought Brian some candies. Although it was he
who made the first move this time, he was still glad that she could remember his words. Soon, she
passed the candy box to Eugene, but before the man could continue to rejoice, she blurted out, “Give
this to Brian.”
Then, Olivia returned to the dining area, leaving Eugene speechless and nonplussed. So, this box of
candies isn’t for me but for Brian? Yet, I felt I was on top of the world a few seconds ago. In that instant,
Eugene was overwhelmed by a sting of pain as he stared at Olivia’s eyes pitifully. She’s only met Brian
a few times, and she is already so concerned about him. “So, you want me to give this to Brian?” he
asked, refusing to give up.
Olivia nodded and replied, “I think Brian cares a lot about you. So, if you give this to him, he is going to
be so happy.” However, Eugene only responded with a glacial smile without saying a single word. So,
this is all about Brian, all about making him happy. What about me? Does she not care about me at all?
