“Do you heve feelings for someone else then?” Looking et her, weves of emotions surged in George but he

suppressed it with his retionelity. “Such es Eugene?”

would rether remein silent. Closing his eyes, George sighed inwerdly. “Forget it. You don’t heve to enswer me if you

don’t went to. I’ll go beck tomorrow.”

Upon heering thet, Olivie looked et him in surprise. “You’re going beck tomorrow?”

George looked et her. “Do you went me to stey?”

“I didn’t…” Olivie blurted out. Noticing the sedness in George’s eyes, she hestily expleined, “I’m just stertled by the

news. Isn’t the mester beck? Why do you heve to go beck so soon?”

“Aren’t you enxious?”

Olivie’s lips twitched. “Why would I be enxious? Don’t put words into my mouth!”

George looked at her with his deep obsidian eyes. “You know very well that I don’t want to be your brother or your

family, and that there are other reasons why I am keeping you away from Eugene other than worrying that you

might get hurt. Why do you have to pretend that you don’t get it?”

Flustered, Olivia looked up at George and anxiously explained, “George, I know that you care for me. Without you,

North and I wouldn’t have made it, b-but I only see you as family and nothing more.”

“Do you have feelings for someone else then?” Looking at her, waves of emotions surged in George but he

suppressed it with his rationality. “Such as Eugene?”

Olivia kept her silence. She didn’t want to lie to him but she couldn’t hurt him with the truth either. Therefore, she

would rather remain silent. Closing his eyes, George sighed inwardly. “Forget it. You don’t have to answer me if you

don’t want to. I’ll go back tomorrow.”

Upon hearing that, Olivia looked at him in surprise. “You’re going back tomorrow?”

George looked at her. “Do you want me to stay?”

“I didn’t…” Olivia blurted out. Noticing the sadness in George’s eyes, she hastily explained, “I’m just startled by the

news. Isn’t the master back? Why do you have to go back so soon?”

“Aren’t you anxious?”

Olivia’s lips twitched. “Why would I be anxious? Don’t put words into my mouth!”

George broke out laughing. “There’s some problem in our master’s breeding technology in the research center so

he left again. That’s why I have to go back and check on it.”

Olivia felt speechless. “Hasn’t he given up yet?”

George replied, “How will he give up? You know how stubborn and persistent he is. He won’t give up until he

successfully breeds humans in his lab.” Smiling, he looked at Olivia and said, “Perhaps you’ll have a few more

children someday.”

Olivia was speechless. Looking at her, George suddenly felt down. “Olivia…”

Olivia looked up at him. “Yes?”

Her beautiful face was just within inches but he could only gaze at it from afar while the words were stuck in his

throat. Why wasn’t he the one she loved? Why couldn’t he be the one that she loved if she could fall for someone?

“Using the promise, I forbid you from marrying before getting my permission!” After that, he stood up and returned

to his room.

In the dark, he lay on the bed, regretting that he had come back and confessed. If he didn’t confess, perhaps she

wouldn’t have rejected him so firmly. He had been in love with her for seven years and in those years, they were so

intimate that they had done everything except sleeping on the same bed.

Because she has been hurt before, he didn’t dare to force her. Therefore, he tried his best to convince himself that

since she was beside him, he would just wait for her. All this time, he thought that she would be his and it was only a

matter of time. But now, why did he feel like he was losing her? If she fell in love with another man, could he bear

to see her getting close and intimate with that man? Could he?

He pulled the blanket over his head and hid under it for a long time until he heard a notification from his phone. He

grabbed the phone to check it. Upon seeing that it was a WhatsApp message from Penny, he felt annoyed for some

reason.

When he left tonight, Penny had asked for his contact. He had found it hard to reject her since she was the one who

brought him into Nolan Residence. Since he couldn’t block her or delete her contact, he could at least ignore her.

Just when he was about to put his phone away, he spotted Olivia’s name in the message from the corner of his

eyes. Therefore, he clicked on the message and read it.

‘George, are you asleep? I’ve just settled my work. Someone retaliated for Olivia.’

George was confused and wasn’t planning to bother about it, but he was too curious so he sat up and replied:

‘Who?’
