Chapter 234

When the door of the lift slid open, as if he was enchanted by something, his legs brought him to Olivia’s door.

When he arrived at the door, he was stunned in place, wondering what he should do now.

Am I really going to do something to her?

His reason was persuading his heated brain to go back, but his longing toward her were like vines that wrapped

around his legs, causing them to become as heavy as lead while he stood at her door without budging.

Just one look! I’ll go back after taking a look at her! But…

Raising his hand, he glanced at his watch. It was 11.30PM, and she might have already gone to bed. It was very late

now, so what excuse should he use to get her to open the door for him?

When he was still caught in his thoughts, her door was suddenly opened.

Looking at the person standing at the door, he was rooted to his place. His mind, which was initially working a little

slow due to the alcohol, was now completely blank.

He didn’t expect Olivia to open the door all of a sudden.

Now, how am I going to explain the reason I’m standing at her door in the middle of the night—instead of being

asleep—while being as drunk as a skunk?

Olivia was puzzled as well. She didn’t know why she suddenly opened the door. After putting her child to bed, she

intended to return to her room to sleep, but she seemed to have heard some sound outside, so she opened the

door without thinking—it was as if something inexplicable had led her to do so.

It was just that she found it rather awkward to suddenly meet his gaze. Before she gave herself time to think, an

instinctive question escaped her lips. “W-Why are you here?”

Eugene thought about it and answered, “I wanted to come and visit North, but I was afraid that you guys were

asleep. You opened the door when I was still hesitating on whether to knock on the door. Why are you not asleep

yet?”

The same question was thrown back to her, which left Olivia stunned for a moment. She then looked at him and

replied, “I heard some noise at the door; I thought that it was a thief.”

She had a shadow of a smile by her lips and a mischievous glimmer in her eyes. He loved how playful she looked

currently.

“Why did you open the door when you suspected that it was a thief? Were you granting entry to the thief?”

Looking at him slightly lifting his chin, the gloominess she had experienced today seemed to have disappeared at

that moment. With a hint of provocation and mocking in her eyes, she uttered, “What is there to be afraid of? I

wonder who would be the victim after the thief comes in! After all, I’m a thief acknowledged by you!”

Standing at the door, he lowered his eyes and peered at her with both his hands in his pockets. He found that his

mood, which had been depressed for the entire day, was suddenly brightened up by her few words. “Yeah, some

thieves steal money, but some steal hearts.”

Olivia was rendered speechless by him. Is he not going to get over this?

“And you are the most skillful thief.” The man’s low and husky voice sounded strangely enchanting, causing her

heart to flutter uncontrollably. Feeling a little annoyed, she looked at him and asked, “Are you drunk?”

He peered at her with a hint of aggrievement on his eyes, but he meekly nodded. “Yeah!”

She said, “I’ve never seen a drunk person admitting that he is drunk!”

He replied, “Before I saw you, I didn’t think that I was drunk; but after I saw you, I think that I’m rather drunk.

Otherwise, how would I get you to care about me?”

His pair of deep eyes twinkled, but his cautious tone made the listener uncomfortable.

Hearing that, she felt a lump in her throat. She then flirtatiously glared at him. “When have I ever not cared about

you?”

He didn’t answer her, yet his pair of eyes reflected his answer—today.

She thought to herself, I haven’t even blamed him for leaving so suddenly, which caused me to reflect on myself

for a day. She reached out her hand and pulled him in. “Come in!”
