From a Wrong Turn to Mr. Right novel Chapter 157

Oh no. Crap!

She totally forgot to text Ethan Carter.

At this hour, Ethan was probably already out looking for her.

Jasper Lane noticed something was off with her face. He suddenly looked anxious.

He’d only just mentioned Ethan, and Olivia’s expression had changed in a heartbeat. Had they gotten into a fight or something?

Not that he could really get involved in a married couple’s business.

Jasper suddenly felt a headache coming on. He stared at Olivia Bennett, still a little worried. “Olivia, is everything okay?”

Olivia’s brows were knitted tight, her mind completely consumed by Ethan Carter.

She didn’t feel like chatting.

Her tone was rushed, a little flustered, “Sorry, Jasper, I’ve got something I need to take care of. I have to go.”

With that, she spun around and hurried out.

Jasper watched her retreating back. His suspicions seemed to be confirmed.

He let out a long, heavy sigh.

Ethan just wasn’t cut out for relationships.

Olivia was so sweet, and she was pregnant, for God’s sake. And Ethan still managed to get into arguments with her.

Meanwhile, as Olivia opened the door to their private room, Nannie Bruce stood up.

She was about to ask if Olivia wanted any dessert, but froze when she saw the anxious look on Olivia’s face.

Nannie’s expression turned serious. She hurried over, worried. “Olivia, is something wrong?”

She gave Olivia a quick once-over. Aside from a splash of water on her shirt, she looked pretty much the same as when she’d left a few minutes ago.

“I messed up, Nannie.” Olivia replied, flipping frantically through her phone.

Nannie blinked, confused. “What happened?”

“I forgot to text Ethan Carter,” Olivia muttered, already scrolling through her messages.

Sure enough, she had a bunch of missed calls and unread texts. Twelve, to be exact.

Olivia set her phone face-down on the table and gave Nannie a sheepish look, “I got caught up talking with you and totally forgot to tell Ethan not to pick me up tonight.”

“Ethan Carter comes to pick you up every night?” Nannie looked at her like she’d just confessed to eating pineapple on pizza.

Olivia nodded, a little guilty.

She’d remembered at lunchtime. But after work, she’d come straight here with Nannie, and they’d been chatting nonstop. She’d completely forgotten.

If Jasper Lane hadn’t dropped Ethan’s name, she might not have remembered at all.

Nannie studied her for a second, then hooked her finger under Olivia’s chin, pushing up on her cheek to make her smile.

Olivia shot her a betrayed look.

Nannie grinned, satisfied, “See? You look so much prettier when you smile.”

Olivia batted her hand away, forcing a fake grin. “Pretty, huh?”

“Absolutely. Anything’s better than that sour face you were making,” Nannie teased, giving Olivia’s cheek a gentle pinch. “Come on, you already called Ethan. If there’s any drama, you can deal with it later. For now, let’s just enjoy the last bit of peace and quiet. No need to look like a sad little pickle.”

Olivia rolled her eyes, “You’re enjoying this way too much.”
