Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 1383

"Humph."

Olivia snorted coldly and crossed her arms in front of her chest like a queen. "That's more like it. I forgive you!"

Sam silently twitched his lips. "Why, thank you, your majesty," he thought.

"Here's the thing. Do you remember attending my grandmother's birthday banquet? My Uncle Pollard knows of our relationship, and he wants to work with you." At that, Olivia suddenly raised her hands and clarified, "Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying you have to. He just wants a chance to meet you and asked me to be the middleman. As for whether you want to work with him, it's all up to you. I'm just letting you know. I'm not forcing you whatsoever!"

"So, you're saying you want me to promise that I'd see your uncle?"

Olivia nodded. "Yes, and with that, my task is complete."

There was some silence in the living room. Sam said, "Okay, when do you want to meet him?"

"So, it's a yes?" Olivia was rather surprised. She thought he would shirk for a bit. After all, the

Yardley Corporation wasn't some small corporation. Although her uncle's company wasn't small fry either, it was still incomparable to Yardley Corporation. If the Yardley Corporation was willing to work with her uncle's company, they'd be lowering themselves.

Hence, she wasn't hopeful, to begin with.

"Yes," Sam replied. He looked in another direction and said in an indifferent tone, "Happy now?"

"Of course!"

Olivia thanked him with a smile as she had achieved her purpose. Sam looked at her speechlessly.

How could this girl be so carefree? She had been screaming at him with bloodshot eyes a second ago, and now she was smiling.

So, was she really angry, or was it all an act?

Sam was rather bewildered.

"Don't worry. Next time your parents come to you, I will definitely take good care of them."

Sam wanted to say that it was not necessary as it'd only be more chaotic if they interacted too often. Moreover, his mother seemed to adore Olivia very much. If she entertained them, wouldn't his mother force them to get married?

However, unexpectedly, he didn't say anything when he saw how happy Olivia was.

Forget it. He should just take it one step at a time.

Who would've thought Olivia's words became true later. Emma didn't like to visit in the past. Even if she missed her son, she would only visit once in a while.

However, since she found out Sam had a girlfriend, she came over more frequently. At first, she'd come to visit Olivia with Marcus every day.

But because both women had a lot to talk about, Marcus'd usually get neglected, so he wasn't willing to accompany her much later.

Marcus also felt helpless when the father and son talked about this.

"Your mom has always been domineering. What can I do if she wants to visit Ollie? I can't tell her not to come, can I?"

Sam also felt speechless after hearing that.

However, Marcus had his suspicions, so he whispered, "You and Ollie aren't really a couple, are you?"

Hearing this, Sam was shocked. "Dad, how did you know?"

"You and I are from the same mold. Do you think I wouldn't know if she is really your girlfriend?" Marcus sighed helplessly. "Although I don't know what's going on, if you don't like her, it's better if you two don't hold each other back like this. You're no longer young, and a girl's youth doesn't last forever. Besides, it'd be bad for her reputation if she lives with you for too long. You get me?"

Sam fell silent after hearing this. This was indeed something he hadn't taken into account before. He had only thought of how he and Olivia could help each other but didn't realize how this would hurt her reputation.

Meanwhile, Emma and Olivia even exchanged contacts and chatted every day.

Emma would constantly criticize Sam, but at the same time, she'd imply how reliable he was, and marrying him would be a good choice.

Olivia knew where Emma was going with things, but she found it hard to explain. After all, they needed each other, so she could only keep smiling.

After that, Olivia arranged for her uncle to meet Sam.

Olivia couldn't make it that day, so she didn't know how their conversation went. All in all, her mother never called her about it again, and Olivia finally had her peace and quiet.

On the contrary, Emma had been bothering her.

"Sam's cousin is getting married this week. Why don't you come with Sam as well?"

"Huh?"

Olivia was caught off guard by the news. Emma wanted her to attend his cousin's wedding with him?

That meant he was one of Sam's close relatives.

If they were to attend a wedding of such a close relative, wouldn't it be equivalent to publicly announcing they were a couple?

But their relationship wasn't real.

So Olivia did not agree right away but waited for Sam's return to discuss the situation.

She really wanted to know his thoughts. Would he agree to bring her along?
