Blake pointed toward a place not far away from the school gates and said, “Look.” When Terry saw the woman who was talking to Eugene by the entrance, his small face instantly darkened. “Who is that?”
Carter shook his head. “I don’t know. I think that North doesn’t like her either.” Blake commented, “It looks like he’s angry.” Carter frowned as he asked, “Eugene doesn’t have feelings for that woman, does he?”
Hearing that, Blake yelped in surprise. “That won’t do! Eugene belongs to Godmother. How can he like someone else?” Terry instructed coldly, “Let’s go and have a look.”
With that, the three children got out of the car. Currently, Azalea stood by the school entrance and looked at Eugene with a tender smile while a speechless Shannon stood by her side. She had wondered why Azalea brought her here so early in the morning, but it turned out that she was planning to see Eugene. This woman really is something…
However, Azalea was elated that she was able to see Eugene and commented with a smile. “Your son is just as handsome as you.”
Upon saying that, she even reached out to caress his head. As North disdainfully avoided her touch, Azalea awkwardly retracted her hand. “Your son has quite the personality.”
Eugene rubbed his head with a smile. “Naughty boy Then, he turned to Azalea. “Is your leg better?” “Yeah, I can go back to work now. Eugene, can I work at your company?”
Thinking that Olivia would definitely be displeased if she found out, Eugene eventually said, “There’s no need to rush. Just focus on getting better. Didn’t they say that it takes three months for wounds to heal? If you need money, I’ll send you some.”
Azalea smiled softly. “It’s all right. I don’t need the money. I’m just bored. Eugene, let me be your secretary or assistant!”
Before Eugene could reply, North said with a frown, “My daddy’s secretaries and assistants are all men!” Azalea chuckled, her tone carrying a trace of derision. “Is he really that strict?”
North boasted, “My daddy is doing this so that my mommy won’t have to worry.” Azalea raised an eyebrow, her gentle expression remained as she sent a smile to Eugene. “Then, I can just work at your company as a normal employee, right?”
And yet, North refuted once more, “It’s not that easy to become an employee at Nolan Group either!”
Azalea was a little frustrated by Eugene’s lack of response, but she couldn’t vent her anger on a child either, even if said child really did irritate her with his words.
Hence, she turned her wide and teary eyes to Eugene, asking in a voice of hurt, “Then, are you planning to make me go through the formal procedures?”
Eugene inhaled deeply before he finally said, “Actually, I just wanted you to rest a little more. If you insist on coming to work, I’ll have Curtis make arrangements tomorrow.”
After sending him a glare, North looked at Azalea again. “Why do you insist on working at my daddy’s company?”
Azalea was elated by the news, and her gaze carried a look of mocking as she returned his look, but her tone remained gentle as she replied, ‘Because your daddy’s company is a big company, of course. I can learn a lot there.”
North refuted, “Then you should strive to get in with your abilities instead of using your connections.” A trace of resentment flashed past Azalea’s eyes as she looked at him. Why is this child so annoying? It’s like he never shuts up.
Her brow furrowed slightly, but she continued to reply with a smile, “Are you so against it because your mommy doesn’t let your daddy get close to any women? Then, what are you going to do about the female staff in the company? Fire all of them?”
Hearing that, Eugene frowned slightly in discomfort. In fact, no one would be happy about a situation like this, and he thought that Olivia was already doing more than a good job. Before he could reply, a childish voice suddenly piped up from afar. “Are you trying to start a fight?”
As the voice fell, North turned toward the source of the sound and saw that the person who had just spoken was Terry. All of a sudden, his mood took a turn for the better, and he sent them a smile.
Soon after, Carter spoke up. “Eugene is my godmother’s boyfriend. Don’t you think you should keep your distance from him?”
Blake chimed in, “Are you here because your child also attends school here, or are you deliberately trying to bump into Eugene?”
North turned to Azalea as well and said, “My mommy isn’t that petty. We’re all very thankful to you for saving my dad’s life, but we’ve never and will never hold back against anyone who dares to eye our daddy!”
