Chapter 001 matchmaking meets odd man out
"Miss Moore, how much do you earn each month?"
Olivia Moore stirred her coffee with a spoon and looked up at the man across the table, that was her
date for the day, the introducer told her mother that this man was a quality man, a supervisor in a large
company, earning a good income, tens of thousands of dollars a month.
Olivia, who is only 24 years old, is being pushed by her mother to get married and is afraid to go home,
has no choice but to go on another blind date to meet this so-called quality man.
"This cafe is owned by me." Olivia maintained her poise, and when the other party looked around the
surroundings with a satisfied look, Olivia added, "But it hasn't started making profits yet."
At that, the other party's face changed and asked her, "That means you're still losing money?"
Olivia nods her head.
The other party frowned, "So, did you invest your own money or did you borrow from others? How
much do you owe?"
"I started it in partnership with a friend, borrowed some money, owe a hundred thousand or so, I think."
Olivia answered honestly, looking at the other party's reaction, already not satisfied, just as well, she
did not like this man.
"Miss Moore, this is your pre-marital debt, and I will not help you pay it after marriage. You are in debt
now, and I guess you don't have any properties, right? I have two suites in my name, which are my pre-
marital property, you can live in them after the marriage and we will pay the mortgage together, but I
will not add your name to the property deed."
"Miss Moore, I'm not young, my parents are waiting to hold their grandchildren, after the wedding, I
hope you get pregnant and have a baby early, it's not easy for my parents to raise my siblings, they've
worked hard for most of their lives, you have a baby, they won't help with the baby, you have to bring
up the baby yourself."
"I can't cook, and I'm busy at work, you have to be responsible for three meals a day, and I can't help
with the housework, but I like it clean and tidy, you have to clean up the house so that I don't come
home and see the mess affecting my mood."
"And ......"
"Mr. Barker," Olivia interrupted the other party, who was obviously displeased by her interruption, Olivia
did not care if he was displeased, and said nonchalantly: "Mr. Barker, I'm sorry, you have the wrong
person, I can not meet your conditions, please find another woman who will be a free babysitter for
your family. This coffee is on me."
After saying that, she pointed to the door and made an inviting gesture towards the other party.
The other party's face turned red, probably because he didn't expect Olivia to be so rude. He always
thought he was very good and had a high income, so he gave Olivia a big face by coming to meet her,
and on account of her youth and beauty, he was willing to marry her reluctantly, but Olivia didn't know
how to behave.
Standing up sharply, Mr. Barker took out his wallet, pulled a hundred dollars out of it, slapped it heavily
on the table, and said to Olivia, "I can afford a cup of coffee without Miss Moore's treat."
He shoved his wallet back into his pants pocket, pulled back his chair and twisted away, stopping after
a few steps to turn to Olivia and say, "A woman like Miss Moore who won't give to her family and
doesn't know how to be polite is not going to get married."
Olivia picked up her cup of coffee and threw it at Mr. Barker, saying angrily, "Get out!"
Mr. Barker didn't expect Olivia to hit him, and was hit squarely, his white suit was stained by coffee, he
was so angry that he jumped to his feet, the surrounding customers looked over here, and he couldn't
scold Olivia, he had to put down the words: "A good man doesn't fight with a bad woman. After saying
that, he left in a hurry.
"Cut, what a person, but also quality men!"
Olivia thinks it's a waste of her time, she'd rather not marry a man like that than an oddball guy like that.
A few guests were about to leave when they saw Olivia's blind date scene and stopped to watch the
show.
When the play was over, one of the men said something to the others, and the men went out first, while
the man walked towards Olivia.
"Olivia ."
A warm, deep cry reached Olivia's ears and she instinctively looked over at the man approaching.
With that, he stood up at once, a big smile raised on his pretty face: "Jenson , what are you doing
here?"
Jenson Foster replied with a smile, "I was meeting some friends here and you weren't in when I came
in."
That's the reason for being the owner of Fate Cafe and not seeing Jenson come in.
"May I sit down?" Jenson asked politely.
Olivia hurriedly asked him to sit down, called the waiter to re-set the table, and said to Jenson,
"Jenson, wait, I'll make you a cup of coffee myself."
"No, just give me a cup of warm water." He had already had a cup of coffee, and if he drank more, he
wouldn't have to sleep at night.
Olivia poured a glass of warm water for Jenson and ordered the waiter to bring some snacks.
Jenson was a college classmate of her brother Frank Moore. Frank would go back to A City from S City
every summer and winter when he was in college, and Jenson was not very close to Frank, but since
they were in the same place, they came back together by high speed train every time they were on
vacation.
Olivia, who is five years younger than Frank, would follow her father to the station to pick up Frank and
to meet Jenson.
The two of them have known each other for eleven years, although each time they just meet and say
hello, and she doesn't even know where Jenson lives.
Even though she hadn't seen Jenson in the last few years, she could still recognize him immediately.
"What just happened?" Jenson asked gently.
Whenever she goes out and meets someone she knows, she asks someone to introduce me to a man
and arrange a blind date for me. Ten or so times in a row." Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Jenson : "...... Auntie is also a little bit in a hurry."
When he met her, she was thirteen, and before he knew it, she was twenty-four.
"That is, today let me matchmaking object, said what quality man, I said odd man is almost, on that odd
man, no wonder are more than thirty years old still not married to a wife, always thinking that others
pay, they sit and enjoy it."
Jenson looked at Olivia, "With a profile like yours, you don't need a blind date, there should be a long
line of men after you."
He can say that he watched this girl grow up, she used to look green, now mature and not lose the
charm of a woman, the act of charming, it is reasonable to say that there is no shortage of suitors.
Olivia bristled and explained, "I had a boyfriend in college for four years, half a year ago, he climbed
the ladder and dumped me, so my mom thought I was hurt by the scum and worried that I wouldn't
marry, so she begged people every day to introduce me to a boyfriend."
She was just in the start-up phase and had no desire for emotional matters.
She also does not deny that the four-year relationship did not beat the lure of money and status, which
hurt her badly.
Jenson's eyes twinkled as he heard Olivia say she had been dumped by her boyfriend, and his eyes
became unpredictable.
