Seeking Olivia's Help

A Week Later…

“Olivia, are you going to attend my grandma's birthday party tonight?” Alden's voice made her turn to face him, diverting her attention from the pancakes she was preparing.

Her eyes widened at his words, amused by the fact that she wasn't aware of the party.

She walked up to Alden with a frown. “Why are you just telling me?” She asked sadly.

Alden chuckled at her childish behavior. He leaned closer to stare at her. “What difference will it make? Besides, you were too busy setting up our new home,” he hesitated before he could come up with an excuse.

“Busy setting up our new home or living with you?” She asked angrily. “Now that you are just informing me, what am I to do? I can't even think of a birthday present that your grandma will love,” she added worriedly.

He lifted his gaze up a bit before he replied. “Why worry when you have me here?”

Olivia, who knew this was going to be another season of flirting for Alden, decided to return her attention to her pancakes.
