Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 1476

When Sam exited the bathroom, Olivia realized that he had already taken a shower. His hair was wet and dripping with water.

She couldn't help complaining, "Couldn't you dry your hair? We're in the middle of winter. You'll catch a cold with your hair wet."

His physique was commendable, and he had just the right amount of body fat for insulation. Furthermore, he'd taken a hot shower, so he didn't feel cold at all.

Nevertheless, he sat next to her after hearing her complaints and dried his hair obediently with a towel.

She gave him a sideways glance and spoke tentatively, "Well, someone gave you a call, but you were not around, so I picked it up for you."

"Mhm." He didn't have much of a reaction and continued drying his hair. After a while, he asked, "Who called?"

"Who do you think it is?"

Upon hearing that, he turned to look at her with his gaze deep.

As they exchanged glances, she smirked and announced, "Your sweetheart."

With that, she could sense a flash of emotions flickering in Sam's eyes before he fell silent and paused. Anxious, Olivia leaned forward and climbed onto his lap.

"What? Do you regret having me pick up your phone? Let me tell you, Sam. If you regret it, you can now give her a call."

However, he said nothing, holding onto her to prevent her from falling backwards.

She then leaned in close to him and locked her gaze on him, "Why aren't you saying anything?"

With a pucker of his lips, he muttered, "You're my girlfriend. I won't keep any secrets from you. You can answer any of my calls. I don't regret it."

He knew that he was Olivia's boyfriend right then, and he had to control himself as he needed to fulfil the duty of a responsible boyfriend.

She decided to let it slide upon hearing that.

After a moment's pause, she reached out for Sam's towel and took the initiative to dry his hair for him.

"Let me help you."

He did not reject as he allowed her to dry his hair. His gaze was lowered as if he was deep in thoughts.

The silence lasted for a minute. His hair was short, so it was dry in no time. She then urged, "It's almost dry. Just a quick blow with the hairdryer, and you'll be good to go."

He hummed a reply before saying, "It's cold. Go take a shower."

She thought about it before she reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck all of a sudden. Smiling, she said, "Alright, but I don't want to walk to the bathroom, so you'll have to carry me there. Also, help me get my clothes."

In the past, Sam had no idea that women could be so coy. After he had been with Olivia, he had a whole new perception and understanding of girls.

Without any hesitation, he put his arms around her waist and carried her to the bathroom.

He asked, "Do you need me to heat up the tub for you?"

She sat on the bathroom counter lazily and stared at him with a bashful smile, "Sure."

He went to draw a bath for her. She curled her lips in a gentle smile as she watched him, slowly taking off her socks and shoes. With that, she reached her foot out to nudge him.

"You haven't gotten my clothes for me."

He turned around. When he noticed her pale foot, he paused for a brief moment before saying in a low voice, "I'll go and get them right now."

By the time he returned, she was soaking in the tub. He didn't enter the bathroom right away. Instead, he knocked on the door like a gentleman.

"Ollie, here are your clothes."

"Come on in." She seemed unbothered as she splashed warm water all over herself, "You've already taken complete advantage of me, so why are you acting as if we've never met?"

Olivia was surprised upon hearing that question, and she didn't answer Brenda for a long time.

"Don't be nervous, Ollie. I was just casually asking. You guys are in a fake relationship, but do you not have any feelings for him? If that's the case, you guys can't get married as you won't have a loving marriage. Olivia, you might as well break up with him as soon as possible and return home. I'll introduce you to another man, or you can stay

single. I won't force you to do anything."

Olivia found it odd.

In the past, Brenda was not that easygoing. She wanted to marry her off as soon as possible as if she was afraid that Olivia would stay single forever.

All of a sudden, Olivia turned suspicious.

"Mom, why are you telling me all of this? What happened?"

"No, nothing! Nothing happened. I was just worried about you. What have you been thinking about?"

Brenda joked, trying to gloss over the situation.

As her daughter, Olivia knew Brenda too well. Something must have happened. She recalled that her mother had asked her to visit a fortune teller the last time she called, but Olivia refused to do so. Then, Brenda mentioned that she would go and meet Emma.

At the thought of that, realization dawned upon Olivia.

Had Brenda gone to the fortune teller? Did the fortune teller inform her that Olivia and Sam weren't a good match?

That was the only reason she could think of.

"Mom, did you meet the fortune teller without us

knowing?"

Brenda was astonished upon hearing that. Why was her daughter so smart? Olivia managed to guess it right away!
