Chapter 263
When Olivia called, Kate and Jasper were having a meal outside.
“What’s up, sister?” Kate asked.
Olivia’s voice came through. “George has asked us to have a gathering tomorrow evening. Come over
earlier tomorrow—we’ll meet at the restaurant on Riverdale Street!”
“Alright, but it’s on me tomorrow. No one else is allowed to pick up the tab!”
Olivia smiled. “No problem, you’ll have the opportunity, but you have to help me out on something!”
Kate asked, “What is it?”
Olivia sounded slightly embarrassed. “Well, Eugene had sent me breakfast this morning , but George
saw it. I have no other choice but to lie that you were the one who sent it to me.”
Kate was shocked. “What? Eugene made breakfast for you?”
Olivia quickly said, “Shhh, please lower your voice! Do you want the entire world to know?”
Kate was nonchnt about it. “What’s wrong with that? If I were you, I would definitely show it off to the
entire world.”
Olivia said, “That’s you, not me. I don’t want anyone else to know about this. Remember, if George
asks about it, tell him that you made it. If he doesn’t, you can forget it. He doesn’t seem suspicious
about it to me.”
Kateughed. “Alright, I got it. But hey, you have to tell me what I’ve made, right?”
“Spicy lobster, sautéed lily bulbs with celery, congee...”
When she heard that, she giggled. “President Nn knows how to cook, huh?”
Olivia replied, “I think he made the vegetables, but the rest was bought.”
Kate asked, “No matter what, he surely treats you well enough, but why are you afraid of letting George
know?”
Olivia couldn’t exin this on the phone, so she forcefully said, “No matter what, I can’t let him know
about it.”
Kate said, “You are avoiding the question. Tell me, does George like you too?”

“That’s all. Bye!”
With that, Olivia hung up.
Upon looking at the phone after Olivia ended the call, Kate couldn’t help but smile. She’s doomed this
time! Two men are trying to pursue her concurrently. Let’s see what she’s going to do about it!
While looking at her, Jasper asked, “Is this your best friend?”
“Yeah.”
“Is her son alright?”
Kate replied, “He’s fine. He even picked up the phone thest time I called her. I heard that Olivia had
nightmaresst night, but it’s fine now.”
While cutting the steak, he replied, “That’s good then.”
He had been studying abroad all the while and only returned not long ago to open a local jewelry store.
It was at a fashion party that he heard of the magazine publisher, ‘Bourgeoisie Life’.
Initially, he wanted to use the opportunity to coborate with the magazine publisher to form a working
rtionship with Kate, so that he could be closer to Eugene. After all, connections would be a
powerful resource in the current society.
After interacting with her, Jasper slowly developed a liking toward her. She was kind, passionate, and
straightforward. On top of that, she was quite humorous at times. Soon, everything else didn’t seem so
important to him.
“The steak from this restaurant is pretty authentic. Try this.” Jasper pushed the steak that he had just
sliced in front of her.
Kate smiled. “Thanks. You are exceptionally polite. Is everyone who studied abroad a gentleman?”
He replied, “You can’t generalize everything. Not everyone who studies abroad is chivalrous. Some of
them might look decent, but they can be quite immoral.”
Sheughed out loud. “So, you are actually one of those people?”
Heughed. “Haven’t you realized that decency and immoral aren’t contradictory? If the same person is
being treated both ways, the perpetrator is a gentleman indeed!”
After thinking about it, Kate thought that Jasper’s exnation was rather reasonable. Men are beasts,
after all! “Well, at least you look like a gentleman. I’m not evendylike,” she said in exasperation.
