Chapter 1243 Stop Bothering Her
“I know you don’t want to see me, but I just wanted to ask, was the person taken away Miss Maxwell?”
George’s tone was hostile. “Is that any of your business?”
Albert pondered for a moment and replied, “I consider Miss Maxwell a friend. If it’s really her, I can help her in some way.”
George scoffed, “Enough! Stop bothering her.”
Frowning, Albert asked again, “Is it really Miss Maxwell?”
George grew impatient with the persistent questioning. “Who it is has nothing to do with you. She already told you that you’re not friends. Now, leave.”
With that, he forcefully pushed Albert out of the clinic. Albert almost stumbled, making it the most embarrassing moment in his life.
Deep down, he was still reluctant to leave it at that, but then he thought it wouldn’t be hard to find out if it was her. If someone had been taken away, they would likely turn off their phone or have it taken by the police. So, he decided to make a phone call and find out.
He dialed Olivia’s number directly. The phone rang and rang, indicating it wasn’t turned off, nor was it answered by anyone.
Thinking that Olivia was likely not the one taken away, a sense of relief washed over Albert. He decided to wait for her outside the clinic. There would be a time when he would see her.
Just as he was making this plan, the phone call connected.
“Hello?” Olivia’s voice came through the phone.
Albert was ecstatic. “Miss Maxwell?”
Olivia furrowed her brow. “Who is this?”
Albert glanced at the phone number and realized he had used his personal number. No wonder she answered the call. It didn’t matter, as showing sincerity was only fitting with a personal number.
“Miss Maxwell, it’s me, Albert.”
Olivia frowned even more. “Is there something you need?”
Albert explained, “Well, I happened to pass by the clinic earlier and saw the police taking someone away. I was worried about you, so I called.”
Olivia sneered, “You thought they took me?”
Albert felt a moment of embarrassment but quickly replied, “Yes, I thought that for a moment. Now that I know you’re fine, I can rest easy.”
Olivia asked, “Is there anything else?”
Albert said, “No, but if there’s anything I can help you with, don’t hesitate to ask.”
“No need,” Olivia replied curtly and hung up the phone.
She huffed, thinking that he had improved and knew when to retreat this time. After all, this time, he didn’t pester her with talk of sincerity or the necklace issue. Upon reflection, she felt he must have realized that she wouldn’t easily give him another chance. After all, sincerity was not just about empty words!
Albert sighed, realizing he had been hung up on. He found it amusing. It seemed that in the past, she had given him opportunities at every turn, but his guard was up too high, and he showed no sincerity. Now she was truly indifferent toward him.
He stared suspiciously at the clinic across the street. What had happened? Could it be related to that incident that night?
When Eugene arrived at the clinic, it was already dark outside. He appeared exhausted, and his entire demeanor showed signs of weariness. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
Olivia felt a pang of heartache. Over the past few days, he must have worked tirelessly. That was why she hadn’t told him about the events happening here.
After he finished eating and spent a good amount of time with the children, the two finally returned to their room.
As soon as they entered, Eugene pressed her against the door. He had been hesitant to get too intimate with his girlfriend outside, but now, seeing her standing there so demurely, the longing in his heart surged like a tidal wave. She looked like an enchanting seductress.
He pulled her closer, burying his head in her neck and inhaling her sweet scent deeply. He nuzzled against her forehead affectionately and his voice turned husky. “Darling, I missed you so much!”
