Chapter 1465
After washing up, Sam changed his clothes and drove to the supermarket nearby. He had planned to buy some things for Olivia's parents. He browsed through some wines, meat and fruits. After all, they were going to meet for lunch.
After thinking more, he thought that it would be good to prepare some gifts, so he bought a belt for Olivia's father and a scarf for her mother.
After both gifts were ready, he received a call from his mother, Emma.
"Son, do you need to go to work today? I called Ollie but she's still asleep?" Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
He had silenced Ollie's phone but he did not expect that he would miss his mother's phone call. He explained, "Yes, she didn't sleep well last night so I asked her to rest. I silenced her phone."
"No wonder. I was wondering why Ollie didn't pick up my call. It was you."
He asked, "Mom, what's the matter?"
"What, can't a mother call her son?"
It was not that he couldn't call her, but he was too familiar with his mother's temper. Every time she called, there must be something going on. If nothing happened, she would not call him.
He said nothing, and waited for her to continue.
Without Sam asking, Emma immediately told him everything, "It's like this. I'm going out with a few of my friends today to the Eastern Mountain spa. They say that the sauna is good for the skin. I wonder if Ollie would like to come? She's usually at home, so I would like her to come with me."
Hearing this, he remembered that he and Ollie were going to have lunch with her parents, so he replied, "Today, I'm afraid she can't."
"Why not?" Emma was not happy, "Do you not want me to bring Ollie out? Sam, do you want to be with her in the long run? You took her first time away. If you're not responsible for her, your dad and I will break your legs."
He was embarrassed.
Why did she bring this up again?
"Mom, can you not talk about this so casually? And don't bring this up when Ollie is around."
After thinking about it for a while, he felt that it was better to explain about their schedule that day.
"As for the reason why Ollie wouldn't be able to accompany you today, it's because we have other things to do."
"What other things?"
Emma was curious. If her son and daughter-in-law had something to do, she would prefer not to go with a group of ladies to the spa. Instead, she would want to spend time with her son and daughter- in-law.
"I'm going to have lunch with Ollie's parents."
When Emma heard that, she immediately exploded.
"What? Are you going to see her parents? Why didn't you tell me earlier? I have some things prepared."
"What have you prepared?" Sam asked helplessly, "It's just Ollie and I who will see them. We didn't arrange for you and dad to go."
Emma disagreed and insisted on following them.
"What do you know, child? You and Ollie will be together in the future, and we will meet our in-laws sooner or later. Besides, with your bad temper, if you go alone, what can I do if Ollie's mother is not satisfied with you? No, I have to clean up immediately and then go along with your father."
"But..."
He still wanted to say something, but she had already hung up the phone.
He put away his phone and felt a little regretful that he had told Emma their plans. He should have kept it from her. If he left it to her, she might talk about marriage with Ollie's mother.
Although he and Ollie were together now, just like what she had said, their relationship was not stable yet. That was true.
That was because they didn't get along with each other from the beginning.
He had not figured out his feelings so far. He didn't even know whether Ollie actually liked him.
Now, if the parents from both sides met...
Soon after, Sam bought some things and went home. When he pushed open the bedroom door, he found that Olivia was still sleeping and had rolled to the corner of the bed. A pillow was tucked tightly in her arms. Her arms and legs were not covered by the quilt.
He walked over and covered her with the quilt. He sat on the edge of the bed.
He knew Emma's personality. If her heart was set to do something, no one could stop her. Maybe she was already on the way.
Therefore, he silenced his phone, and texted Emma to tell her that Ollie was still asleep. He did not want her to barge in and wake Ollie up.
Emma replied with an "okay" emoticon.
After that, she added another message telling him, "You don't have to teach me what to do. I know how to take care of my daughter-in-law."
Ollie slept well. She slept more comfortably than she did the night before. When she finally woke up, she wasn't sure how much time had passed. The room was quiet. She found her mobile phone and looked at the time.
Almost eleven? Why didn't Sam wake her? Why was it so quiet?
Did he go off to take a nap?
Thinking of this, she got up and put on a robe, and then walked out.
She had just pushed the door open when she bumped into Sam, who was about to walk into the room.
The two of them met at the doorway and stopped in their tracks.
"You're awake?"
Olivia nodded, "It's eleven o'clock. Why didn't you wake me up earlier? Will it be too late now?"
"No," Sam shook his head, "The time is just right. Everything is sorted. I'm here to pick you up."
"Then, I'll go get changed."
She turned around, but he took her by the arm and coughed softly before saying, "Well, there might be a slight change in our plan." "What?"
"My parents heard what is going on today, so..."
"Are you trying to say that both our parents will be meeting each other?"
This was something that she had not expected at all. She knew that they would meet one day, but did not expect that the day would come so soon.
"You know my mom. She heard that I'll be going to your house for dinner, so she decided to book a table at a restaurant in the hotel, and then invite your parents to come over."
Hearing this, Olivia could not help but raise her eyebrows, "You didn't take my parents to the hotel while I was asleep, did you?"
He did not answer, but the expression on his face said everything.
She reached out and rubbed her temple. She felt dizzy. How could so much happen during a short nap!
"Why don't you go change your clothes?" Sam pointed to the back of her. Olivia nodded helplessly, "I'll change, wait for me."
