Chapter 161 I Have a Rival for My Potential Love Interest
"I can't be bothered to argue with you."
Gwenda snorted in a tsundere manner.
Olivier's eyes gleamed with amusement as he lightly stroked her cheek, his grin growing bigger. "Can I interpret that to mean that you can't bear to lay into me?"
"You..."
Glaring at him, Gwenda eventually rolled her eyes at him and huffed. "Shameless bugger!"
Grinning, Olivier caressed her hair in a doting manner.
Meanwhile, in another car, Samuel was in the middle of complaining to Tyrell about Olivier's "crime".
"Bro, you don't even know how horrible Olivier is. Getting into a relationship in secret without even reporting it to us! If I hadn't insisted on him showing us who that girl is, I bet he's still going to hide it from us."
In the passenger seat, Tyrell was looking at the iPad in his hand even as he retorted coolly, "Why does he need to report his relationship status to you?"
"We're his mates, and we grew up together. Shouldn't it be normal for him to report it?"
Samuel said it as if it should have been obvious.
Tyrell smiled dryly. "Then why didn't you report to me when you were in a relationship?"
Samuel was instantly rendered speechless. He coughed lightly and explained, "I've had so many girlfriends. If I had to report them one by one, I'm afraid I might waste your time." "Well, that's reasonable."
Tyrell nodded.
Samuel deadpanned and thought to himself, "That's my brother alright!"
"By the way, mum asked me to ask you what you think about Gwenda."
Tyrell's tone was bland, and his gaze was still fixed on the iPad. One would think that he was asking perfunctorily about official business.
"Not bad. She's pretty and has a different personality from the women I used to be with. So it's all good! Totally my type!"
A devilish grin appeared on Samuel's face, and his eyes were bright when he talked about Gwenda.
However, after hearing this, Tyrell snorted coldly and said, "Mum likes her and wants her to be your wife. So, I advise you to treat this matter seriously; otherwise..."
He did not finish the sentence, but Samuel understood what he meant.
"Bro, you know me. How could I possibly give up the rest for one woman at this stage?"
"I will not be responsible for passing on this message. It's best if you tell mum yourself."
"Oh, no, no, no. If I told her that myself, I'd be pissing her off. It's better if you help me tell her instead, bro. At worst, I'll just take some time out to be at the company. What do you think?" Samuel gave him a flattering smile.
Tyrell refused to look at him, smirking as he replied sharply, "Deal with your own business by yourself!"
"Bro..."
"Shut your mouth!"
Tyrell glared at him.
Samuel felt so wronged.
Huffing, Samuel grumbled, "Fine, I'll tell her myself. I'll tell her once we get home tonight."
Tyrell ignored him.
Soon, the Kinney brothers arrived at the restaurant.
When they entered the restaurant, the manager greeted them. "Messrs. Kinney, welcome to our humble establishment."
Samuel tossed the car keys to him and asked, "Has Olivier Petit arrived yet?"
"Yes, he's already waiting in the private room."
The manager replied respectfully.
"Cool. Let's go, bro."
The brothers walked towards the private room, and Samuel sped up out of eagerness, while Tyrell followed him leisurely instead.
...
When they got to the door of the private room, Samuel suddenly stopped. "Bro, are you nervous?"
"Why would I be?"
Tyrell asked in puzzlement as he cocked an eyebrow in response.
"Olivier's been a single pringle for so many years, but now he suddenly has a girlfriend. Aren't you the least bit curious, excited, and nervous?"
Tyrell snorted and resisted the urge to roll his eyes. "We'll meet her in a moment. What's there to be nervous about?"
As he spoke, he shoved Samuel aside indifferently and entered the room.
Samuel raised an eyebrow and muttered, "Then why the hell am I so nervous?"
"Idiot. Get in here."
"Yeah, yeah."
Samuel followed him into the private room.
By this time, Olivier and Gwenda were already seated in the room.
Gwenda had been looking at her phone out of nervousness when she heard the door open.
In a flash, she sat up straight and smiled in the direction of the door.
Tyrell was the first to enter, and he caught sight of Gwenda sitting next to Olivier, which made him feel surprised.
Before he could figure out what was going on, Samuel came in too. When he saw Gwenda in the private room, his shock was much more apparent than Tyrell's, his eyes having widened a great deal. He looked as if he had been struck by lightning, his body stiff and unmoving.
Gwenda was equally as shocked.
She never expected the Kinney brothers to be Olivier's best friends.
What coincidence.
"Do you know each other?"
Seeing the expressions on their faces, Olivier asked in a low tone with a raised eyebrow.☐☐☐
