Unfinished Business with You

Chapter 1355

Chapter 1355 Sleepover

Nathan did not describe the incident in detail to Halma, since he felt it wasn't necessary to let her know about troubling issues. Besides, he was also too embarrassed to let her know about it. She just had to believe that he hadn't done anything traitorous behind her back.

Meanwhile, Halma also thought the incident had been dealt with, so she reconciled with Nathan. Olivia and Eugene helped a lot in the process, and Nathan hadn't been there when they had registered to get married. Aside from giving their thanks and blessings, they wanted to treat Olivia and Eugene to a meal. However, both Olivia and Eugene missed Mastar too much and couldn't stay long in the country, so they turned down the invitation.

Halma still felt embarrassed because their schedules had been delayed another day for no reason because of her and Nathan, so she headed directly to Olivia's studio to visit her after she finished her work in the morning.

Meanwhile, Olivia saw Halma enter the studio as soon as she finished up some tasks. Halma looked completely different than before, with her beautifully made-up face, smiling lips, and glowing eyes. It was completely different from how she had looked yesterday.

Raising an eyebrow, Olivia teased, "The power of love is amazing."

Halma looked somewhat embarrassed by her teasing and replied snottily, "I'm far too kind and pretty not to give him a chance."

Olivia's lip curled slightly. "Ha! Who was the one affected by a mere comment yesterday?"

Pouting, Halma glared at her. "Why do you have to mention something I don't want to talk about?"

Olivia considered for a moment before commenting, "Fine, then. Considering that you are now happy after going through so much, I'm not going to trouble you. Tell me how Nathan managed to convince you."

Halma sat opposite Olivia and smiled. "He didn't. I was the one kind enough to keep him."

Olivia's eyes brightened as she repeated, "Keep?"

Halma laughed happily, yet it held a hint of resignation. "He moved over to my place yesterday."

Olivia's eyes lit up again. "Moved to your place? Are you two—"

Halma quickly put a stop to Olivia's wayward thoughts. "Stop, stop! He's just staying there. That's what happened last night. Is he still even human if he tried to take advantage of me?"

Olivia let out a laugh upon hearing that. "So, you two were chatting under the covers, eh?"

Halma retorted, "Haven't you and Eugene done that before?"

Olivia sighed. "We're doing that now. It's far too difficult to look at something without being able to get a taste."

Halma snorted. "If you're this covetous, how can Eugene stand it?"

Olivia instinctively wanted to say something but forced it down before it came out.

Halma stared at her appraisingly. "What's that look? Does he not crave you? Or do you have other ways to satisfy him?"

Olivia realized that they were getting way off track and quickly dragged the conversation back on course. "We're talking about you and Nathan. Why are you mentioning me? Go on quickly."

Halma laughed. "I'm guessing it's impossible for Eugene not to crave you. It must be the second option, then. You're satisfying him in other ways."

Olivia thought that Halma was extremely accurate in her assumptions. Eugene was her nemesis since she had never stopped after getting pregnant. She wondered how he had lived in the past when he was now so insatiable with her.

"Alright, alright. You're the smartest and I'm in awe of you. Why is he sleeping over at your place? What about his mother?"

At that, Halma replied, "He said he has fought with his parents and that they gave him everything he had, so they controlled many parts of his life. He has decided to be self-sufficient from now on and not stay in Muse Peninsula anymore. If I don't let him stay over at my place, he will have to sleep on the streets. Don't you think I'm kind and pretty?"

Olivia pondered over this for a moment before asking suspiciously, "Aren't his parents divorced? Did he leave his mother alone at home?"

Halma was taken aback when she heard that. "What did you say? His parents are divorced?!"
