Chapter 136 Olivier, I’d Like to Eat Some Prawns
Gwenda, who was still sitting on her chair, gazed at their interlocked hands in surprise. Her heart
inexplicably felt as if it had been viciously stabbed by something sharp, and she felt uncomfortable.
"What's wrong?"
Jazlyn glanced at Gwenda, not missing the expression on her face. Then, she asked innocently, "Do
you really mind that I've brought a friend here?"
Seeing this, Karter cleared his throat and tried to smooth things over. "Not at all, we do welcome your
friend. Have a seat, Mr. Petit."
Karter bade them to sit down.
Olivier kept staring at Gwenda. Just as he was about to walk over to sit next to her, Jazlyn caught his
hand and said with a smile, "Sit with me."
Without waiting for Olivier's response, she pulled him to her side and got him to sit next to her while
she herself sat next to Gwenda.
...
Just like that, the three of them sat together.
Everyone felt the atmosphere come to a standstill—
Gwenda's brows furrowed a little with dissatisfaction, but she tried her best to keep smiling.
At this moment, Hattie — who had seen Olivier before — leaned over to Gwenda curiously and asked,
"Gwenda, isn't Mr. Petit wooing you? Why is he..."
"No idea!"
Gwenda interrupted her peevishly.
Hearing this, Hattie knew that she was angry, so she pressed her lips together in embarrassment and
decided to shut her mouth.
"What are you playing at?"
On the other hand, Olivier asked Jazlyn in a low tone as he glared at her.
Jazlyn smiled playfully and did not explain. She simply hooked her arm around his and deliberately
leaned close to his ear, whispering, "I'm here to help you on orders from gramma. Do cooperate with
me."
"What do you mean?"
Olivier did not understand.
"Just play along. Leave the rest to me."
As Jazlyn spoke, she let out a charming smile before pounding on his chest with faux anger and
exclaimed, "Oh, you're so mean!"
Olivier was speechless.
Everyone else at the table looked at each other in silence while Gwenda's face became sullen as the
anger grew in her heart.
...
Sensing how awkward the atmosphere was, Karter looked around and said, "Since everyone's here,
we can start ordering our food."
As he spoke, he made sure that everyone had a menu.
Gwenda was not in the mood to go through the menu as her mind was in a mess.
Olivier was no better either. He did not understand what Jazlyn was up to, but he could tell that
Gwenda was in a bad mood. He kept frowning and glancing over at her.
"Stop looking at her. What would you like to eat?"
Jazlyn whispered as she pushed the menu over to him.
Olivier glared at her with displeasure. "Just order whatever you want."
"Then I'll just be picking what I like?"
"Yeah."
Olivier replied crossly as he tried to think of ways to talk to Gwenda.
Jazlyn raised an eyebrow and pointed at an item on the menu before deliberately raising her voice.
"Olivier, I love prawns the most. I'll order this one. Will you peel the shells for me when it gets here?"
Everyone looked at her again. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
Olivier glared at her, and his eyes seemed to say, "What the hell are you talking about? Have you gone
mad?"
"Please?"
Jazlyn ignored his glare and grabbed his arm as if she was his girlfriend begging to be spoiled.
Olivier could not stand the way that she was shaking him and replied impatiently, "Fine, fine, just order
that then."
"You're the best!"
Jazlyn smiled happily.
Nearby, Gwenda's body began to tremble involuntarily as she gripped the menu tightly.
Seeing this, Hattie looked at her worriedly and asked, "Gwenda, you alright?"
"I'm. Fine!"
Gwenda replied through gritted teeth.
