Chapter 124 Northerly Wind Everyone took a deep breath.
âWhoâs Olivia, really?â
âNot only is Marcus her cousin, but Eugene and Brian? Who are they to her?â
âI reckon that the Gray Group and the Maxwell Group are in big trouble for getting involved with these three.â
Eugeneâs tall figure stood there, looking extremely dignified without even needing to say anything. Right now, his cold gaze swept across the crowd. âSo, whoâs throwing whom out?â
Florence felt frustrated. The sole purpose of having the anniversary today was to upset Olivia, but what brought them here and made them lose all their face?
She hated Anna for being a disgrace to the Gray Family, but if it was not for Olivia, no one would have known about it. In comparison, what Olivia did was more unforgivable!
The ignorant ones were always fearless. That was why Florence had no idea who these three men were while everyone else around her had already predicted the consequences for the Gray Group.
At the same time, she still had the audacity to comment, âShe brought someone with a trumpet and had someone toss joss money today. Sheâs completely ruined a wonderful anniversary celebration. Throwing her out is having it easy on her!â
Ignoring her, Eugeneâs somewhat indulgent gaze fell on Olivia. âYou brought gifts?â
Olivia responded, âItâs not nice to come empty-handed!â
Eugene nodded. âSo... are you done with your gift-giving?â
âNot yet!â responded North. âI also have a gift.â
As he continued, he hit the play button on the recording pen in his hand. Very quickly, Hugoâs sound came out: âOlivia, open the door. Iâm just a little confused because of what Anna did to me. That night, I was actually waiting for you, but she came up to me and told me that you wouldnât show up. She even mentioned that you had already told your dad about getting a divorce. I feel dejected so she stayed and drank with me. I donât know how we ended up together. Olivia, thereâs been nothing but regrets after so many years. If I chose to be with you that time... Iâve never liked Anna. She plotted our separation. Donât you feel that itâs a shame? I can very well divorce her, and I donât mind that you have a kid as long as you give me one more chance. Olivia, I still love you. Can we be together again?â
âGet out of here!â Olivia said the last sentence.
North only played a fraction of the entire recording. He looked at the crowd and stated, âSome people have always accused my mother of seducing her son. Now that the truth is out there, why donât you tell me whoâs seducing whom?â
Florence growled, âYou little b*stard. Who are you talking about?â
Looking her in the eye, North had a sly look on his face. âThe person who just responded! Now that weâre done with the gift-
giving, letâs go, Mommy.â
North held Oliviaâs hand and turned to Florence. âFeel free to continue the anniversary celebration for your son and your daughter-in-law.â
North had made Florence look like a fool a couple of times now and that irritated her. At this moment, his provocative tone infuriated her, and she decided to pull him by his collar.
Before she could reach him, Eugene grabbed her neck. His voice was like the wind howling from the north, bringing an unknown pressing feeling. âWhat do you think youâre doing?â
Hugo was terrified when he saw that. He quickly ran over just to be kicked away by Brian. âF*cking hell.â
After falling, Hugo still managed to beg them, âPresident Nolan, my mother was just too impulsive. She didnât mean it.â
Eugene raised his eyebrows. âItâs not my first day knowing your mother. When we first met, she was beating up this kid, and now sheâs trying to do that again. Do you guys want another lesson?â
