Chapter 364 Obviously, He Is More Tempting!
Liam was really too slow on the uptake in this regard.
Olivia's ears turned red when asked, but she didn't dare to speak.
Andrew's low chuckle sounded in her ear, making her ears feel even hotter.
She immediately changed the subject, saying, "It's nothing, just accidentally bumped into something. Didn't you say you were treating us? I'm already hungry, shall we go in?"
With that, she walked ahead.
Liam looked at her back suspiciously, scratched his head, mumbled a couple of responses, and stopped probing further. He quickly followed along.
Since he had promised to treat them, he naturally had to be proactive!
He had called ahead to reserve a private room before coming. As soon as they entered, they were led over.
The food here was indeed quite distinctive and tasted pretty good. Olivia ate quite happily.
At the same time, she finally understood why Liam was called a medical geek.
Because during the meal, this guy's mouth never stopped. The topics he chattered about were almost all related to medicine.
Several times, Olivia couldn't help but chat with him about it.
By the end of the meal, Olivia could sense that this person was extremely eager to join the Medica Vitae Sect.
Liam even proactively asked Olivia, "I wonder when you'll have time?"
He wanted to see the Medica Vitae Sect's healing techniques and start reading those ancient medical books.
Olivia smiled and replied, "I'm afraid I can't recently. There are still things at the research institute, so I can't get away for now."
"Alright then..." Liam felt a bit disappointed but wasn't discouraged. He added, "Then just give me a call when you're done with your work."
"Sure!"
Olivia and Andrew had already spent half a day here. Now that lunch was over, they planned to leave.
Before leaving, Liam received a phone call. Olivia didn't know what the person on the other end said to him, but she saw Liam's expression become slightly stunned.
The next second, he looked at Andrew, "Mr. Hamilton, the Rosses want to see you. They say they want to apologize to you. Do you want to meet them?"
Hearing this, Andrew's expression didn't change at all. He replied coldly, "No need, not interested."
Liam heard his words and didn't try to persuade him, but his mood was quite unsettled.
The reason was simple - it was because of the phone call he just received.
The person on the other end said that Charlotte's hand was broken.
Apparently, she had encountered a robbery while out and was dragged several feet along the roadside.
But Liam knew that Charlotte had been taken away by Andrew's people.
He didn't think Charlotte's hand was broken due to an accidental robbery.
Olivia noticed his hesitation and guessed that something must have happened.
But she didn't ask Liam. Instead, she waited until she and Andrew got in the car before asking him, "How did you deal with Charlotte?"
What could have made Liam show that expression?
Andrew glanced at David in the front seat.
David had handled this matter; he wasn't clear on the details.
Sensing Andrew looking at him, David said with an innocent face, "After our people took her away, we sincerely invited her to visit the old district.
As a result, not long after, she encountered robbers.
We didn't expect that either. She was quite unlucky!"
He looked sympathetic, acting as if it were real.
Olivia was momentarily speechless after watching this.
If she remembered correctly, that old district seemed to be a place full of thugs and bandits.
She heard that there were also some hidden desperados and criminal groups gathered there - plenty of people short on cash.
When they saw Charlotte today, with all her expensive clothing, wouldn't she be a target for robbery?
Seeing her expression was a bit hard to describe, David continued to defend himself righteously, "Our people already told her not to walk into secluded areas, that it would be dangerous, but she just wouldn't listen. There was nothing we could do."
After hearing this, Olivia found it somewhat amusing.
Charlotte liked to steal from others, so they let her be stolen from too.
Was this their way of venting for her?
Thinking of this, Olivia rummaged through her bag for something.
Before long, she pulled out a bottle of medicinal powder and said to David, "Next time, there's no need to go through so much trouble with this kind of person, or waste gas driving so far.
If you encounter this type of person again, just use this - sprinkle it on them.
This medicine will make her feel muscle weakness. Her arm won't actually be disabled, but she'll have the illusion that it really is."
People like Charlotte really needed to be taught a lesson. You had to torment them psychologically, make them afraid and scared.
Only then would it leave a lasting impression.
Charlotte wasn't a good person. She was arrogant and wanted to harm Olivia, wasn't it because she relied on her family background, which made her fearless?
David's direct approach would only fuel Charlotte's hatred and anger.
If they met again next time, Olivia believed she would definitely dare to try something again!
David nodded with sudden realization, "You can do that? I've learned something!"
He then put away the powder, "Next time I'll try this medicine!"
"Mm." Olivia also said, "Next time I'll make you some other things."
"Great!" When David looked at her again, the admiration in his eyes was undisguised.
Andrew watched the two of them discussing how to punish people and found this side of Olivia inexplicably cute.
After they finished chatting, he pulled her close and asked gently, "You're carrying so many things with you, why didn't you know to use them at the critical moment?"
Olivia touched her nose and said, "I wanted to use them, but didn't have time. Everything was in my bag. I wasn't prepared beforehand and didn't know she would attack directly. It was a bit sudden."
Andrew pondered for a few seconds, nodded slightly, and said, "I'll help you handle this problem later."
"Okay." Olivia didn't ask how he would handle this problem.
But she just believed that he would take care of it for her.
They had gained quite a lot this morning, returning with a full load.
Olivia watched the car slowly start and asked him, "Are we going home now?"
Andrew shook his head. "It's rare that Bianca isn't around. Don't waste time. I'm taking you on a date."
Olivia's eyes carried a soft smile, "In that case, I'll follow your arrangements."
Andrew took her to a helicopter club.
This was one of his properties, usually a place for those wealthy heirs of high society to have fun. The threshold to come here was quite high.
When they arrived, the club had already prepared Andrew's private helicopter.
Olivia looked at the spacious grounds, quite surprised.
She was about to follow the club manager forward when Andrew beside her suddenly stopped her, "Wait for me a moment, I'm going to change clothes."
"Hm?" Olivia was still a bit confused.
Why change clothes?
But she soon found out.
The man changed into an incredibly handsome pilot's uniform - black vest, white shirt, long black pants. His broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted figure was on full display.
In his movements, he had less of the steadiness he had when wearing a suit, and more of an unrestrained sharpness.
Olivia felt her heartbeat becoming uncontrollable, accelerating wildly.
This was the first time she had seen Andrew dressed like this.
This outfit was clean and sharp, casually handsome, radiating irresistible masculine charm that made her heart race.
Perhaps Olivia's excited gaze was too obvious, her eyes sparkling as she looked at him. Andrew's eyes also deepened.
He walked over, put his arm around Olivia, leaned close to her ear, and reminded her in a low voice, "Olivia, don't look at me like that, or I'll think you're inviting me."
Hearing this, Olivia froze.
Inviting?
What invitation?
A barely perceptible hint of desire flashed through Andrew's eyes.
She didn't know that the look of adoration in her eyes was irresistible.
The moment their eyes met, Olivia seemed to catch his meaning, and her face turned red with a whoosh.
Then she felt this was quite unbelievable.
Out of nowhere, how could he have such thoughts?
Even if there was desire, shouldn't it be her?
Clearly, he was the more tempting one!
The two whispered to each other for a while before boarding the helicopter together.
David and bodyguards accompanied them the whole way, with Andrew in charge of flying.
The helicopter started up. Olivia watched as they gradually left the ground, and the people on the platform quickly became black dots the size of ants.
Olivia didn't know where their destination was. She leaned against the window, looking down from above, seeing different prairie scenery and cityscapes.
Her mood became suddenly cheerful in such scenery.
Olivia happily turned back to look at the man beside her.
They say a person is most dazzling and attractive when they're focused on something.
When Andrew demonstrated his expertise, every move was incredibly pleasing to watch.
Olivia felt he seemed truly capable of anything.
Most importantly, such a person, no matter when, always treated her with special care and was never perfunctory.
Falling in love with Andrew was really an easy thing!
Meanwhile, the upper circles of Harmony City were buzzing again.
This time, it was because the Morgan family and the Ross family had called off their engagement.
This news spread to everyone within just two hours, and everyone was very confused.
"Why did the Morgan family suddenly call off the engagement?"
"Yeah, haven't the Morgan family and the Ross family always had a good relationship?"
Someone in the know revealed, "I heard that Ms. Ross offended Mr. Hamilton."
"What? How did she offend Mr. Hamilton?"
People who heard the news were shocked.
The Ross family was a prestigious medical family with a distinguished position. When the news of their alliance with the Morgan family came out, they were in the spotlight. How could they have offended Andrew out of nowhere?
"I heard before that these two families were going to hold an engagement banquet at the end of the year. Once the marriage was finalized, the Ross family's status would surely rise even higher."
"How could Ms. Ross have offended Mr. Hamilton?"
In Harmony City, there was never an insignificant piece of news.
Especially when it involved such important figures!
For a while, it attracted countless people's curiosity!
So many people used their connections to start inquiring.
They were all in the same circle, and most had close network connections!
It didn't take long before everyone knew the whole story!
