Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 1236

Speaking of that night, Sam felt a sharp pain between his eyebrows. That night, he had indeed grabbed her hand and hadn't wanted to let go, so Olivia was forced to squat and sleep by the sofa. In the end, her legs even became numb.

He even wronged her when he woke up.

Thinking of that, Sam felt a little more guilty and finally agree.

"Got it."

Seeing that he had agreed, Olivia smiled immediately.

She knew that he would agree. It seemed that he still felt very guilty toward her. She had only mentioned it casually; she didn't expect it to be so effective.

Soon, they arrived at the Jenkins residence.

When Olivia and Sam got out of the car, Olivia kept nagging in his ear.

"Do you remember what I told you just now? My birthday, my friends, and some..."

Sam looked at her as if he was looking at an idiot.

"Do you think I can remember so much in such a short time?"

Olivia was rendered speechless instantly.

"What did you say? You don't remember a single thing?"

Sam didn't answer. To tell the truth, he had forgotten completely because he wasn't interested in a stranger's life or their birthdays and horoscopes, so he didn't take Olivia's words to heart. He only looked at her as she chattered; his mind wandered off to another young lady.

Vera...

He heard she went on a vacation with Quill. She must be very happy now, isn't she?

He had lost all hope.

Thinking of this, Sam's heart filled with bitterness, which gradually spread.

Olivia was sharp; she could tell something was off with Sam with a glance. She squinted and thought for a while; she suddenly became furious. "Hey, how could you?! How can you think about your ex when I'm talking to you?"

Her voice pulled Sam back to his senses. After that, he looked at her with a complicated expression in his eyes and replied, "She's not an ex."

"What? Not an ex? Your ex-ex-girlfriend then?"

Sam was rendered speechless.

Seeing that he was speechless, Olivia suddenly realized something and the corners of her mouth twitched. "Could it be... You didn't even manage to get her?"

Unfortunately, she was right.

Sam refused to answer her. He said faintly, "I will perform well in front of your mother. I won't let her catch your act."

"Alas, you really have it tough, don't you? You're already lovelorn before you even managed to get her. Is it unrequited love? Ouch... Who would've thought my blind guess hit the mark. Maybe I should become a fortune teller." Olivia did not intend to let him go but continued to mutter.

"Do you still want me to pretend to be your boyfriend? If not, I'll go back first."

Seeing Sam was going to leave, Olivia grabbed his hand immediately and said, "Wait, I was just kidding. Don't be upset. Of course, I still need you. Let's go up now."

Hearing this, Olivia couldn't help rolling her eyes.

In fact, she and Sam had only seen each other several times. Even if she asked him to pretend to be her boyfriend this time, she did not intend to ask him how he got that scar.

It was, after all, his scar. It would be impolite to bring it up.

Who would've thought Amanda would ask like that, and she even asked this in front of so many people in the elevator.

Thinking of this, Olivia felt unhappy immediately.

She had a sweet smile on her face before, but now, she was a little upset. She did not answer but asked instead, "Madam Amanda, I haven't come back for a long time, but as soon as I came back, I heard your daughter- in- law had run away. Is it true?"

As expected, Amanda's expression changed drastically when she heard that.

"W-who told you that?"

Olivia said innocently, "Everybody's talking about it. It's fake? I don't think it's true either. Your daughter-in-law is beautiful and capable, and she has such a good background. She doesn't look like the kind of person who would abandon her husband and child."

Amanda's face was gloomy. "What are you talking about? Is your mother talking bad about me behind my back? You two are really annoying. You always gossip behind others' backs."

Olivia smiled calmly. "No, our skill of gossiping is absolutely inferior to yours."

Olivia bought a house much later as Brenda had begun forcing her to get married, so she moved out for peace and quietness. When she was living here, she often heard Amanda gossiping and said some particularly unpleasant things.

"You!" Amanda was livid; she snorted. "I didn't expect you to still be so unruly after so many years. What's wrong with your mother? She raised you, but she didn't teach you any manners. How are you supposed to get married in the future?"

Amanda spoke pointedly; she even deliberately looked at Sam.
