Chapter 1004 George's Blessing

• Eugene replied, "I know that. Olivia also told me that she would've ceased to exist without you, which is why she's been hesitating to tell you. In fact, she already said yes to me the last time you came over. Honestly, George, you're my love rival, but you're also a savior to me. I'm really grateful to you for that, so I hid when Olivia told me to. Even though I feel jealous seeing you two getting thick together, I know that you sincerely mean her well. There's no fairness when it comes to relationships, so I can only say sorry for all the things you've done for her. I love her very, very much. If you insist on separating us, you might end up losing her!"
• George felt a particular dislike for his last remark. "Are you so sure that I'll lose her and not that she'll go with me?"
• "No, that's not it. Olivia says you have a condition that she has to meet. If you ask her to go with you, I think she'll do so, but I'd say she won't be happy since you and I are equally important to her. There are some things that I can never give her no matter how hard I try, such as complete trust and dependency. That time when North got abducted by Anna, she'd rather make an overseas call to you than reveal her vulnerable side to me," replied Eugene. "Likewise, there's one thing that you can never give her no matter what, which is the feeling of burdenless and rightful confidence. She doesn't feel any pressure around me and can do whatever she wants, whether it's quarreling with me or even blowing up at me. But when she's around you, she feels indebted and guilty toward you!"
