    Chapter 1381 Jealousy


    Olivia pouted. “We still have to look for someone George likes. If it’s your sister, just forget about it.”


    The furrow between Eugene’s eyebrows deepened. It wasn’t because of what Olivia had said about


    Penny, but he greatly disliked hering to George’s defense. She was well aware of George’s


    feelings for her—not only would he dislike Penny, he wouldn’t like anyone else either. “Rtionships


    will develop over time. Just because your senior doesn’t like her now, it doesn’t mean that he wouldn’t


    like her in the future. You have to give them a chance to try things out.” “It’s not like I’m stopping them.


    George was the one who told me to send them away. He clearly doesn’t like them either.” “Then, we


    can help him.” Olivia whipped around to shoot him a re. “Actually, I don’t like it either.” Eugene froze


    in ce. Don’t like it? He hurriedly strode forward to catch up to her, ultimately unable to stop himself


    from asking, “You don’t like looking for a girlfriend for your senior? Don’t tell me you’re trying to be his


    second choice.” At his words, Olivia immediately stopped in her tracks. She whirled around to look at


    him, her eyes turning cold. “I just signed the marriage papers with you, and I have your child in my


    belly. Do you think that it’s appropriate to say that to me?”


    Eugene immediately fell silent. Realizing that he had lost his cool, he hastily reached out to grab her


    hand. “Olivia, don’t be angry. I was just joking with you.” Olivia shook him off immediately, her voice


    cold as she growled, “It’s not funny at all!” She didn’t wish to argue with him immediately after returning


    home, especially with so many people in the house. However, although she could avoid a fight, she


    was still unable to suppress her anger. After greeting Hector and Ellen who were sitting in the living


    room, she informed them that she felt exhausted and wanted to head back to get some rest. At the


    sight of Olivia’s displeased expression and Eugene’s guilty look, Ellen asked urgently, “Eugene, what


    happened?” Eugene only brushed her off dismissively. “It’s nothing.” Upon seeing that he was about to


    follow her, Ellen hurriedly reminded him, “Don’t irk Olivia, you hear? She’s pregnant, so her emotions


    aren’t that stable. You should go easy on her a little.” “Yeah, I know.” At that, Eugene swiftly went after


    Olivia in long strides. George’s gaze followed their retreating figures closely, but he was still unable to


    do anything. Ellen let out a sigh. “Why can’t that brat knock it off? He’s always making Olivia angry.”


    Hector chuckled and said reassuringly, “Don’t worry. They’re not little kids anymore; all couples fight


    every now and then.”


    She said, “That son of mine has never been in a rtionship, so even though he’s given his heart to


    Olivia, I’m worried that he’ll say the wrong thing.” He replied, “Olivia is the same; she’s quite stubborn


    because of how much we spoiled her. Let’s just stay out of their business. Young couples get into


    arguments just as quickly as they make up. Who knows? They might’ve already reconciled by the time


    we’re done making dinner.”

    Ellen nodded in agreement. “You have a point.” “Come on, let’s start making dinner.” As Hector


    reentered the kitchen, Ellen trailed after him. “Let’s make some roasted pork loin. Isn’t that your


    favorite?” “There’s no need to go through all that trouble. You’ve already made enough. Aren’t you


    tired?” With a gentle look in her eyes, Ellen smiled and said, “Not at all. I feel happy when I see all of


    you enjoying the food I make.” Hector only gazed at her silently, a smile ying at the corners of his


    lips. While the two downstairs were brimming with affection, the other couple upstairs were a stark


    contrast—one talking his mouth off, and the other refusing to say a word. As Eugene observed Olivia,


    who was sprawled on the bed and refusing to acknowledge him, he began to mull over the reason why


    she had lost her temper, and if they had any problems between them. However, the answer was no. He


    loved her, and she loved him. Hence, was she angry because he spoke out of line? If that was the


    case, he decided to be honest with her. After arriving at this conclusion, he grabbed her hand and


    begged pitifully, “Don’t be angry, darling, I know I said the wrong thing. I thought that you didn’t want


    your senior to get a girlfriend because… you still like him.” When Olivia turned around to re at him,


    he hastily added, “N-No, I know you don’t like him that way. You only see him as your brother. I just


    didn’t think it through earlier because I was a little… jealous.”
