Chapter 861
On the other hand, Olivia feared that Eugene's appearance indicated that he was prepared to consent to the
marriage.
On the dance floor, the couple followed the rhythm of the music and became wholly absorbed in the experience of
dancing together. Azalea would occasionally put her head close to him and whisper something. Olivia wasn't able to
hear anything that was being said, but she could tell that he wasn't bothered in the least by their close proximity.
A man who had previously shown no interest in women was now enjoying being near one. It seems as though he
has developed strong feelings for the women.
Olivia's lips curved upward in a mocking grin. What an ironic circumstance! She was so concerned about his safety
and well-being that she was willing to travel to a foreign city to find him. She had no idea he would be here,

Christoff embraced her in his arms and flirtatiously leaned in. "How does seeing your boyfriend dancing with
another woman make you feel?" She pushed him away without a trace of emotion, but her tone was stiff as if to
conceal her annoyance. "Nothing."
He drew her back into his embrace and questioned, "You're now my girlfriend. Do you not think it's inappropriate
for you to be upset with Eugene and take it out on me as a way to vent your frustration?"
"Then, stay away from me," Olivia warned him before slipping out of his embrace. However, her eyes were still
fixed on the couple's dancing as if she were torturing herself. She wanted to see for herself what Eugene was up to!
Christoff shot her a sly look before returning his attention to the two people dancing. Eugene, oh, Eugene. Why are
you so avaricious when you have a girlfriend? Let's see how you explain this to her!
Eugene had a distinct impression that someone was watching him. When his gaze unexpectedly shifted toward
Olivia, he saw a woman he didn't recognize. When their eyes met, he was taken aback and questioned why she was
looking at him intently.
Then, Azalea followed his line of sight but didn't catch anything out of the ordinary, so she asked, "What's wrong,
Eugene?"
He retracted his attention and mumbled, "Nothing." He must have been too preoccupied with his emotions to
recognize anyone else as Olivia. Indeed, there was no resemblance between the two.
She reassured him, "Don't worry, as Hayes is here. He won't stand by and do nothing if my dad insists you stay."
Without a word, Eugene cast another glance in Olivia's direction. Following that, he became aware that Christoff
was at the banquet. Isn't he in Summer City? Who is the woman next to him?
Since he wouldn't recognize Olivia in her new guise, she could stare at him all she wanted. Her eyes sparkled with
an eagerness to roll out onto the dance floor and question him as if a fiery orb of invisibility were blazing in them.
Do you like it here? Does she have tender skin? Are you enjoying your role as King of the City's son-in-law?

She was justifiably enraged after seeing that woman, who made her feel as sour as if she'd eaten a dozen lemons.
Nonetheless, she knew that she could not afford to act hastily in such a massive palace for fear of endangering
Eugene and herself.
Hayes jumped to his feet and gasped in surprise, "I-Is that Eugene Nolan?"
Sirius smiled and explained with courtesy, "Yes. You should know that Azalea has had a crush on Eugene for quite
some time. Inadvertently, I learned he was in Nambahd on a business trip, so I extended an invitation. I was taken
aback when the two youngsters instantly hit it off. I guess it's a good thing they're both still on the market. Don't you
think they're a match made in heaven?"
"Does Eugene agree with the marriage?" Hayes questioned surprisingly.
"Of course," Sirius responded triumphantly.
Hayes had a hard time believing that Eugene would get involved with Sirius!
