Chapter 911 We Had No Choice

Olivia glared at him. "If there's nothing between you and her, why would you worry that I'd misunderstood you? Stop talking in circles. I don't have the patience for that."

Eugene frowned. "There's really nothing between us. She saved my life a few years back, and she wanted me to join her birthday celebration that day. I thought that it'd be easy to leave since Hayes would be there as well, and by doing so, I wouldn't embarrass her. I didn't know you were at City Palace on the same day, so I didn't bother to tell you about the birthday. There wasn't anything important anyway. It's the same as you showing up as Christoff Stevenson's plus one. I know you were forced into doing that."

She smirked at him with disappointment in her eyes and enunciated, "Are you saying that we're even because I was involved with Christoff Stevenson?"

He was surprised by her interpretation. "No, that's not what I meant. I was saying that I believe there's nothing between you and him. We had no choice, right?"

She snickered. "We had no choice? You 'didn't have a choice' because you refused to place her in a difficult position. But I had no choice because I wanted to save your life. Eugene, had I known that you were living out your best life with a pretty woman there, I wouldn't have put myself through all that trouble. After all, you know how disgusting Christoff Stevenson is. If I had a choice, I wouldn't have asked for his help. If I hadn't found the spiked drink, what would you have planned to do? You'd lie on Azalea Namb's bed, ready to be Sir Sirius' son-in-law! How dare you compare us? You were never in the same position as me!"
