Unexpectedly Sweet Flash Marriage novel Chapter 92

Chapter 92 To Defend Her Brother's Romantic Relationship

When she saw Adeline's face turning pale, Olivia quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Oh, please don't mind my words, Adeline... I was just kidding!"

Curtis warned Olivia with a glare.

Olivia hurriedly smiled, "Fine, I get it! Adeline isn't officially part of the family yet, so you should treat her well as a guest. But I'm already a part of the family, so there's no need for you to treat me so formally, right?"

Steffen was totally speechless.

Steffen couldn't believe it, Olivia was completely clueless about the relationship between Curtis and Adeline.

As she spoke, Olivia raised the Japanese sake in her hand, "Come on, I suggest we each share something happy and raise a toast! I'll go first... Well, here to celebrate the fact that I'm back!"

Adeline raised her glass and lightly clinked it with Olivia's.

Curtis didn't raise his glass and said in a calm tone, "Your return isn't something to celebrate."

Olivia pouted and coquettishly asked, "Uncle Curtis, you're not happy that I'm back?"

"Yeah, not really."

Olivia was speechless with Curtis's reply.

Oh well, that was just how Curtis was.

To cover up the awkwardness, Olivia asked Adeline to share something worth celebrating.

Adeline raised her glass and looked at Curtis and Steffen, "Well, I got the notification that I secured the first place in the city's competition. The academic department also informed me of a raise, and I've been promoted to the head of the language research group."

Curtis lifted his glass and proactively clinked it with Adeline's, "Congratulations, Ms. Burton."

Steffen also raised his glass, "Congratulations, Ma..."

Curtis glanced at Steffen.

Steffen quickly corrected himself, "Ma... Marvelous!"

Adeline breathed a sigh of relief.

But throughout the whole process, Olivia remained completely oblivious to the others' reactions.

Steffen was speechless as he found out Olivia was exceptionally careless and insensitive.

After the four finished their barbecue, they planned to head back.

In the car, Olivia casually asked, "Adeline, where are you living now?"

Adeline's face froze, and she heard Curtis calmly answer.
