Chapter 430

Eugene looked at Olivia and smiled. “Truthfully, my mother isn’t dead. Back then, my mother was

already in the operating room by the time I rushed over to the hospital, and Brian stood outside the

operating room and blocked me from going in. I didn’t know what condition my mother was in, so I

desperately begged a doctor to bring me inside. However, my mother was in critical condition at the

time. The doctor informed me that she might end up in a vegetative state. I didn’t dare to tell Brian

about her condition. If she fell into a coma, how would these two sickly people take care of each other?

Thus, I went to my grandpa. He helped me sneak my mother out of the hospital and sent her to a

secret location to be treated. Moreover, he took control of the people who were monitoring the situation

from the shadows. When Brian learned that my mother did not survive the incident, he passed out

again. By the time he woke up again, he rushed over to the funeral home and fought with me, thinking

that I buried our mother behind his back. At this point, I admit that I was using him. But, it was for his

sake. He was only safe if we were not on good terms. Afterward, I helped him get back on the right

track, a little at a time. I might not have been in contact with him all these years, but I know everything

that has been going on in his life.”

Olivia was shaken by what she heard. Then, she said in disbelief, “It must have been hard for you as

the elder brother. Then, where is your mother now?”

He replied, “She’s at a location I arranged for her.”

After that, Olivia frowned and considered everything he had told her again. “Even if your father doesn’t

love your mother, aren’t you and Brian his biological sons? Why doesn’t he love his own children?

Besides, wasn’t he worried that both of you would be strongly criticized by the public if he turned your

mother’s incident into such a huge scandal?”

He coldly spat out, “Didn’t I already tell you before? Brian and I were kids he never wanted! If he never

had us, he might have had a smoother divorce! How could he possibly care for a bunch of stumbling

blocks that he hated in the first place?”

Frowning deeply, she said again, “Even if he didn’t love you because he considered the two of you little

more than shackles hindering his divorce… was it worth doing all this just for Lara? Does he love her

that much? Does he love her so much that he doesn’t mind claiming that he was cheated on, setting up

his ex-wife to be kicked out of the marriage with nothing but the clothes on her back, treating his sons

like they were no more than strangers, and even causing a car accident to kill your mother after his

divorce? Isn’t that overdoing it a little? Don’t you find it strange?”

He frowned in response but didn’t bother considering it deeply. “He has always been very caring toward

Lara. Even now, he obeys everything she says. If that isn’t love, then what is it? If he didn’t cause such

a huge scandal out of it, it wouldn’t have been easy for him to get a divorce!”

On the other hand, she didn’t know how to explain her thoughts well. Thus, she mulled over it and tried

to arrange her thoughts before saying, “Logically speaking, if all Lara and your dad wanted was to force

your mother to get a divorce, then Lara already achieved her goal! So then, why did they have to kill

your mother? Either you have been considering this from the wrong direction, and they aren’t the ones

behind it at all, or they actually wanted to kill your mother to conceal something else!”

Upon hearing that, he scowled fiercely. In the beginning, he had simply assumed that they were afraid

of him exacting revenge on them, and that’s why they did their best to suppress him, use his men to kill

his mother, as well as turn the brothers against each other. Now that he heard what Olivia said, he

couldn’t help thinking that what she said made sense. “Tomorrow, I plan to bring Brian with me to visit

my mother. I’ll ask her about this while I’m at it. Why don’t you come with me?”

“N-No!” she reflexively rejected the offer. “Uh… I mean, I’ll go with you another time.”

The corners of Eugene’s mouth turned up into a teasing smile. “At first, I wanted to give you some time

to mentally prepare yourself too. But, I don’t plan to marry anybody else except you. So, you don’t need

to feel so mentally burdened. Besides, you’ve already met grandpa and Brian, so it shouldn’t be a big

deal to meet your future mother-in-law, right?”

Upon hearing those words, Olivia felt speechless. How is that the same? I met Grandpa and Brian

before we became a couple, okay?
