Chapter 11

"I can bring some for you some other time."

Oliver nodded as the two walked into the villa.

Getting into the villa, Oliver realized there were about five neatly dressed ladies and two neatly dressed guys.

When they all saw Logan enter with a guy following her, they turned to look at each other in shock.

Logan, whom they knew for a long time, never entertains the opposite sex, so how come he walked in with a guy?

When Logan told them she was going to pick up someone, they expected the person to be a lady, not a guy.

Nora Steward, who was among the ladies, walked towards Logan and asked, "Logan, who's he?" 

"Nora, he's Oliver Storm, my friend." 

"Friend?" They all questioned at once.

They were all shocked because most of them had tried to befriend Logan, but it was to no avail; they could say Nora was their friend, but something couldn't be said for Logan.

Logan turned to Oliver and said, "Mr. Storm, she's my best friend, Nora Steward, and they're her friends."

"Once a year, we have a party to celebrate our friendship."

Oliver nodded, "Hello, Ms. Steward, nice meeting you."

Nora nodded with a smile and said, "I guess Mr. Storm is really capable of being able to befriend my stubborn friend."

Oliver smiled but said nothing.

"Well, let's all head to the dining room and have a good feast."

After some seconds, Logan came back from the kitchen with different varieties of dishes, which she placed on the table.

  

Nora also walked in with the wines.

"These are all dishes I took time to prepare with Nora, so I hope you all can enjoy them to the fullest."

"There are also a lot of wines, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, so you can drink to your satisfaction."

"That's very kind of Ms. Logan and Nora." They all said so as they started to dine.

"Mr. Storm, which one do you prefer?" Logan asked.

"Non-alcoholic drinks would be better for me."

Logan nodded as he poured a glass for him.

"Cheers to our years of friendship; Nora raised her cup to meet Logan's."

"To all my other friends here who have also been with me all time, cheers to you all." Nora said, raising her glass again.

  

Oliver, who was busily enjoying his meal and wine, suddenly felt a pair of eyes staring at him.

He raised his head only to see one guy among the two staring at him coldly as if he had an animosity towards him.

He was Jace Denson. Jace had fallen in love with Logan and had tried his best to get Logan's attention, but all his efforts bore no fruit. Seeing Logan bring Oliver and treat him well, he felt jealous and mad.

   

Oliver didn't take his cold stare to heart but rather continued with his food.

"Mr. Storm, there are more dishes, and you're my special guest, so you should eat more." Logan said.

Oliver chuckled. "Logan, thank you for your kind treatment."

"So what work is Mr. Storm doing?" Jace, who had been quiet all this time, finally asked.

All eyes were now on Oliver when Jace asked the question. Logan wanted to say something but swallowed her words.

"Actually, I am not working."

"What!" They were all shocked upon hearing Oliver's reply. How could Logan befriend someone who wasn't working?

Even Logan couldn't believe that Oliver wasn't working, but she felt it was normal for someone as rich as him.

"Is Mr. Storm really speaking the truth?" Nora questioned.

  

Oliver smiled and replied, "I'm not working."

Even though they were shocked, Jace was rather filled with joy. He wanted to use the opportunity to humiliate Oliver.
