Chapter 793

Penny pushed Theodore away like a madwoman. "You guys set her up!"

She then looked at Eugene. "Eugene, that doesn't make sense at all. My mother is in prison the whole

time. How could she plan any revenge?"

He replied languidly, "Being in prison is the best shield one could possibly get. She won't be able to

raise suspicion by staying in prison, but she didn't stay under the radar either. I asked you to come over

for you to witness everything. So, for God's sake, stop saying that I wronged your mother!"

She shook her head in disbelief. "No, that's impossible. They must've conspired against my mother."

"Stop shouting at me. I will hand this over to the police and they'll dig into the evidence that will

convince you. Lock them up. We will return tomorrow," ordered Eugene.

"Okay," Kyle responded before motioning the bodyguards to take the two people away after which

silence filled the manor.

Penny stopped screaming as though she was a lifeless robot.

Why can't Mom behave? If this case adds up, she won't be able to get out of prison even if she's not

given a death sentence. Just what was she thinking? Is it that hard for her to see Ellen alive?

On the other hand, Hayden's mouth remained zipped too. As there was a thick air of sorrow enveloped

him, it hurt so much more than a breakup.

He knew that she was not worth it and he should never fall for her again either. Yet, his heart throbbed

painfully as if someone had sliced off a part of it, which suffocated him.

Why am I so blind?

Meanwhile, the unbothered Eugene was having fun fumbling with Olivia's hands in silence. Olivia saw

the maids preparing dinner and she intended to help them out, but he thwarted her. "You should know

your place."

She gazed at him speechlessly. "You can just say that I'll make a mess instead."

He smiled. "I didn't mean it that way. I'm saying that you have something more important to do."

Her gaze landed coldly upon him. "You mean… Staying by your side?"

He did not deny as he looked into her eyes intensely. "Don't you think that no one can do that job other

than you?"

Olivia could not help the corner of her lips from curving upwards. Obviously, that was a sugar-coated

playboy comment, but it worked on her.

She glared at the man pridefully while whispering, "You're shameless."

Eugene felt wronged. How is this being shameless? I haven't even started.

He pinched her fingers as a punishment. With an innocent yet grievous face, he grumbled, "Treat your

boyfriend nicely, will you?"

She almost chuckled. She was not sure how much she liked this man, but she was not behaving

herself whenever he was in front of her. Right now, she could not stop from smiling like a silly girl.

What did he just say? Nothing, but it's somehow funny. I guess this is what they call 'love'.

At the same time, Hayden stared at the couple enviously. Others were on cloud nine after getting into a

relationship, but he did not even get a girlfriend and had himself stained with blood.

Soon, dinner was ready.

Holding hands with Olivia, Eugene stood up and patted Hayden's shoulder. "Let's go for a drink."

Hayden gazed at Eugene, trying hard to force a smile on his face, but in vain.

Perhaps, a little alcohol might help with the pain.

Olivia said, "I'll go upstairs and inform them that dinner is ready."
