Olivia hadn't arrived when Sam sat down at the cafe.
He ordered a cup of coffee for himself and a cup of milk tea for Olivia out of courtesy. Then sat down to wait.
One minute, two minutes, five minutes...
Ten minutes had passed, but Olivia still hadn't shown up.
Sam frowned slightly and looked at his watch. "Was I fooled? Is the girl taking revenge on me?" He thought.
However, after some thought, he did not think it was possible. She sounded anxious; she probably truly needed his help.
While he was deep in thought, someone stormed into the cafe like a tornado and kept looking around.
Sam recognized Olivia at a glance.
She wore a white T-shirt and a pair of loose pants. Her hair was tied up sloppily, looking unkempt.
This was the first time Sam had seen a girl who didn't take her image seriously.
In general, there were many girls who didn't care about their image, but Olivia was probably the only one who didn't care about her image on any occasion.
Just as Sam scrutinized her, Olivia had already noticed Sam. She ran to him quickly and pulled a chair in front of him to sit down.
"Hi, Mr. Sorrento, you're so early."
Sam pursed his lips and said coldly, "You were late for 11 minutes and 20 seconds."
"What?" Olivia tilted her head embarrassingly. "I was stuck in traffic. I'm sorry."
She didn't give any excuses for her tardiness and immediately apologized to Sam sincerely. After apologizing, she picked up the cup of milk tea while asking, "Is this for me?"
Sam nodded slightly.
"You can order something else if it's not to your liking."
"No, it's okay. I like to drink milk tea. Thank you."
The weather was hot and stuffy that day. Olivia rushed over, drenched in sweat, so she took a few big gulps of the milk tea.
"What can I help you with?"
"Huh? 0mm..." Olivia found it hard to explain the situation to him.
Normally, she spoke carelessly. But now, she was looking for someone to be her pretend-boyfriend. It was difficult for her to talk about that to a man she had only met a few times and was not familiar with.
However, the arrow was on the bowstring, and Olivia had to shoot. She was not one to be euphemistic, so she simply went straight to the point.
"Well, I hope... you can pretend to be my boyfriend."
Hearing that, Sam's brows furrowed.
Olivia explained hurriedly, "Don't get me wrong. You just needed to pretend, not to be my real boyfriend!"
Sam's brows furrowed even deeper as if her words sounded exceptionally ludicrous.
What did she mean by pretending to be her boyfriend?
Sam stared at Olivia's pale face with some displeasure and asked, "Miss Olivia, are you kidding me?"
"No," Olivia waved her hand embarrassingly. "I really need your help. My mother has been forcing me to go on blind dates, but I don't want to go, so I hope you can pretend to be my boyfriend and trick her. Then she won't ask me to go on a blind date again."
After explaining, Olivia found that the man's frown was even deeper.
