Olivia wasn’t delighted at all at being praised, though. She said, “I was suspicious, but I didn’t really
want to see them here. You think he’s right, but he’s hurting Katie in doing so. Can’t he tell that she’s
upset?”
Eugene replied, “I didn’t say he was right, but I understand his purpose in doing so. It’s better to rip off
the Band-Aid, after all. In his opinion, it’s better for her to be heartbroken for a brief period now than to
be anguished for the rest of her life.”
Olivia shook her head in regret. “Actually, Katie has always had a good impression of him. I’m afraid
she’ll be very disappointed if she learns that he’s involved in this.”
“You’re worrying too much. Jasper is a clever person, after all. Come on, let’s eat,” Eugene urged.
Still feeling worried, Olivia sent Nathan a text message. ‘Don’t get agitated when you see Katieter.
Just pretend you didn’t see her and keep on acting alongside the actress.’
Reading the text message, Nathan immediately searched the hall with his eyes. The restaurant had
quite arge hall, and there were a lot of people, so it took him a while to see Kate sitting at another
table with Jasper. She was eating with her head lowered, but she didn’t seem very happy. She must’ve
spotted me.
Just when he was confused about what was going on, the woman across from him suddenly pped
him right across the face, saying, “You jerk!” Then, she turned around and stormed off.
Nathan pped a hand over his pped cheek with a dumbfounded expression. Baffled, he shot a
nce at Olivia, who gave him a look to signal him to run after the woman.
Nathan took another look at Kate before looking at the woman who had long gone. Then, he finally ran
after thetter.
Seeing him leave the restaurant, Kate secretly heaved a sigh of relief before looking up at Jasper. “Did
you bring me here on purpose?”
Jasper was startled. For a moment, he was unsure how to reply.
Kate then asked, “You wanted me to see Nathan dating another woman here, didn’t you?” Seeing his
hesitation, she added, “I hate it when someone lies to me!”
Jasper took a deep breath before meeting her gaze with a nod. “Yes, I did. I want you to see that such
a guy isn’t worthy of-“
Before he could finish his sentence, Kate asked, “It was also on purpose that you took me to that
hotpot restaurantst time, right?”
Jasper looked at her in surprise. “How did you know that?”
Kate looked at him with a flicker of disappointment in her eyes. “Even if I didn’t agree to go out with
you, I still think of you as a friend.” In other words, she was disappointed with him for trying to deceive
his friend.
Jasper suddenly felt unsettled. He anxiously exined, “Katie, this is all because I love you so much.
And besides, that Nathan guy treats you badly, and it makes me feel bad to see you being so upset
every single day. I’ve been thinking about why I’m not the one who takes care of you. I definitely won’t
leave you so heartbroken. That’s why I agreed to cooperate when she found me.”
Kate stood up. “I’m not feeling well, so I’m going back,” she said before attempting to leave at once.
Jasper hurriedly grabbed her. “Let me send you home, then.”
“It’s not necessary.” Kate shook him off again.
Just as she was about to leave, she heard Olivia shouting at her. “Katie…”

She was surprised. “Why are you here?”
Olivia replied with a grin, “President Nn is treating me to dinner!”
Eugene looked at them before suggesting, “Have you eaten? Why not join us if you haven’t?”
Olivia stood up and dragged her to the table. “Come on, join us.” Then, she said to Jasper, “You too,
Mr. Greenwood.”
Jasper didn’t want to leave like that in the first ce, and all the more so when Olivia and Eugene were
inviting him to join them for dinner. The couple’s social status alone was enough reason for him to not
decline their invitation, not to mention the fact that they were Kate’s friends. “Okay,” he said with a
smile before seating himself next to Kate.
