Olivia felt tears welling up in her eyes, and since she didn't like being dramatic, she frantically turned around to avoid Sam's gaze.

As she withdrew her hand, she teased him, "What are you talking about? I'm an adult, so how could anything happen to me? Also, how is it any of your business?"

Although her movements were swift, he noticed the redness in the rim of her eyes when she turned around. At first, he thought he was mistaken, so he leaned forward to check her out. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." To avoid him, she reached her hand out to stop him from moving forward, "Don't look at me."

Her voice seemed choked with sobs, and he frowned deeply. He grasped her wrist and turned her around to face him.

She hadn't expected him to do such a thing, and their eyes met. After a moment's pause, she instantly lowered her head.

"Are you crying?" "No." Her voice was muffled, "I was asleep, so I'm tired. Why would I be crying?"

Although Sam hadn't been with Olivia for long, he knew her rather well.

He knew what kind of person she was. If she was to burst into tears from watching a show, she would wail, cry in front of others, and wouldn't mind others seeing her doing so. If she was in low spirits, she would remain silent as she wouldn't want anyone to notice it.

Presently, he realized that she was truly upset.

"What's going on?"

"Nothing." Olivia shook her head. She still hadn't figured out how to break the news to Sam, and she didn't know if Emma had told him.

"Ollie," he sounded helpless. He sighed before continuing, "Do you think I will believe you when you tell me nothing has happened with how you currently look?"

That was right. She initially did not want to express her sorrows in front of him, but she couldn't help it after looking at his face and eyes.

What was she doing? How could she not control her feelings?

He had seen through her, so there was no point in denying it.
