Chapter 442

Ellen was so pleased with North that she held him in his arms and reassured him. “It’s okay. He won’t

dare to do anything. I’ll hit him back for you.”

Instantly, Brian laughed. “You’re good at finding help.”

With a proud expression, North snorted in response.

Silently twitching her mouth, Olivia was a little jealous of her son’s slick social skills. Why doesn’t this

little boy feel awkward at all around them?

Embarrassingly, she explained, “North came back that day saying that he thought you were a bad

guy…”

Before she could finish her explanation, North ran over and covered her mouth. His dark eyes shined

like diamonds while he signaled her to stop talking.

Olivia didn’t understand why, but the little boy turned toward Brian. “How dare you come at me? Do you

know how expensive Mommy’s consultation fee is? It cost my Great-grandpa fifty million a day. Mommy

took fifteen days to treat you. Do the math! Count by yourself how much that is! You even ate the

dumplings and noodles Mommy made. I'll tell you what. For the sake of Grandma and Daddy, I won’t

charge you more. Just pay Mommy 500 million!”

Even Eugene followed suit and helped out. “How can that be enough? He needs to pay at least 300

million more!”

Not knowing whether she should laugh or cry, Olivia thought that this father and son’s minds were in

sync. Weren’t they the ones who told her not to charge consultation fees that day?

Similarly, Ellen grinned and looked toward Brian. “That’s right. Now that you’re cured, even 800 million

is worth it, let alone 500 million!”

Brian was speechless as he looked at his mother. I’m no longer the most favored one in the family!

Edward just came back home when he saw Lara’s frustrated expression. He asked, “What happened?”

Taking a long breath, Lara answered, “They lost Eugene. What’s the point of employing those useless

bastards?”

“It’s okay. After all, Eugene wouldn’t dare to do anything without Brian,” Edward reassured her.

“The one who was watching them said that Brian and Eugene got into a fight last night. Olivia then

came and brought the two of them away, but no one had seen them since then. When the both of them

went out for breakfast at 6 AM, Eugene’s car vanished. Is it possible that Olivia had made the two of

them reconcile with each other?” Lara questioned.

“How is that possible? This is not a trivial matter. There’s no way she can talk them out of it that easily!

Look at both of their tempers. Either one of them will only be satisfied if the other gives in.

Reconciliation is impossible!” exclaimed Edward.

Upon hearing that, Lara nodded in agreement. Indeed, no one would simply forgive someone who had

killed their mother.

“Olivia seems to be very wicked. Look at how many times she has intervened with our plans? Besides,

other than knowing that she’s one of the Maxwells, we know nothing about her. And everything that

happened abroad can't be found! But, I don’t understand why Eugene is so fond of her. This is so

unreasonable. This woman can’t stay any longer!”

Holding Lara’s hand, Eugene comforted, “Stop thinking about that. If Eugene likes her so much, just let

him be. The old Eugene didn’t care about anyone and always looked like he would die with us anytime.

Now that he has Olivia and a son, he has a weakness. He’ll have to think about the two of them before

doing anything. This may be a good thing for us.”

Once again, Lara nodded. “You’re right. By the way, I called Penny today and it didn’t get through. This

kid is really worrying me lately. I think she blocked me!”

“There’s no way. I gave her a call on the day after she left. We talked for half an hour and I feel like she

didn't take the matter to heart. She even asked me to persuade you. Seems like you were too rash with

introducing a boyfriend to her before. Just take it easy with this!”
