Chapter 4

I discovered that Ethan was really too easy to fool! He believed everything I said.

I had no doubt that if I told him there were lychees growing in the sky, he'd believe it without question.

There weren't many people as pure as him left in this world.

"Olivia baby, I have to go to work now. When can we meet?"

Ethan's one downside was that he really wanted to meet. In the few days we'd been chatting, our relationship had rapidly heated up.

I was thinking of just bringing Ethan home for the weekend blind date.

Having someone was better than no one, right? Mom shouldn't say much then.

From what I understood, Ethan was in the same city as me, working in the same district! What could be better than that? We might even bump into each other on the street.

"Baby, are you free this weekend? Would it be okay to come home with me?"

"Really? I can?"

Seeing this exclamation mark, I could imagine how excited he must be on the other side of the screen.

"Baby wants to meet me, I'm so happy, so excited!"

"Baby baby baby, this is great, I can finally meet you! Five days until the weekend! I need to think about how to dress myself, hehe."

His messages came one after another like an excited puppy. I looked at them helplessly.

It was just a meeting, was it really such a big deal?

"Olivia, has anything exciting happened recently?" My coworker Sarah asked from the desk opposite.

It was just after lunch break. I didn't like squeezing into the cafeteria with everyone else, so I usually waited a bit to eat. I didn't expect Sarah to still be here too.

"Why do you ask?"

Sarah tidied up her desk and picked up her phone. "No reason, I just noticed you've had a non-stop smile on your face. I thought maybe you saw some funny video, or..."

Sarah leaned in with a mischievous grin, her eyes narrowing to slits, "Could it be? Has our beautiful Olivia found love?"

"What are you talking about? Don't be silly. If anyone's going to find love, it'll be you before me." I quickly locked my phone screen and joked, "Alright, alright, I'm going to eat now. Want to join me?"

"Sure."
