"Wedding?"
Sam frowned for a moment before he said, "If you want to go, you can."
What?
She could go if she wanted to? Had he a clue as to how things had become?
"Um, do you know your mother has taken a liking to me? She'd come over and hang out every day. I have a feeling she has completely regarded me as her future daughter-in-law."
This was a major problem, one that was beyond her expectations.
She had only wanted to help him out, but who would've thought it would turn into this?
"Yes, I know."
Sam just hadn't thought of a solution yet. Should he tell his mother the truth or that they had broken up?
"What do you think?"
Sam thought he should ask her opinion before he made a decision.
Olivia suddenly realized she had never given it a thought before. As she got along quite well with Emma, she subconsciously said, "I don't mind. It's just a wedding. I'll just take it as a trip. But if you have your concerns, I'll turn your mother down."
"If you want to, then join us." Sam decided right away. "The wedding is right around the corner. I'll have to trouble you one last time. I'll clarify to her after we come back."
Olivia was stunned for a moment before she nodded. "Okay."
She understood what Sam meant. He'd explain their relationship to his mother after the wedding. By then... She can't continue to stay at his place anymore.
"But clarifying to her is my issue. If there's anything you need, you can still come to me."
Olivia twitched her lips and said, "Okay, I know."
There was a long silence between them before Olivia stood up and said, "Let's leave it at this. I'm going to bed now."
"Okay."
Olivia had been staying in the guest room after it had been tidied up.
After returning to her room, Olivia nestled under the quilt, feeling inexplicably gloomy.
She had always been rational, so she was well aware the reason she felt so was because of Sam's words. She was quite happy when Emma asked her to attend the party.
But now, she was as gloomy as the grey skies.
After some thought, Olivia texted Tiana.
"I think something's wrong with me recently."
Tiana replied with a question mark.
"Please be serious. There's really something wrong with me."
Tiana said, "What nonsense are you talking about in the middle of the night? Does this have to do with Sam?"
Seeing his name, Olivia grew glum. Why was Tiana able to hit the nail on the head? Was she so obvious?
"Hmm? Why aren't you saying anything? I'm right, aren't I? You didn't believe me when I said you liked him and even retorted me."
Did she like him?
Olivia thought it was impossible, yet she was feeling strange that day. Even she didn't know what was wrong with herself. But there didn't seem to be anything peculiar about their interaction.
