Eugene coughed slightly before he elaborated, “When they came to look for me, it was during the time Olivia and I weren’t getting along, so I suspected that someone was trying to start something. When they came to my company saying that they were my children, I was worried it might be a trap again, and when I couldn’t get any answers after interrogating them, I chased them out. That’s how they held the grudge to this day.”
Blake huffed pridefully. “You even said that you were going to throw us into the sea to feed the sharks.” Carter pressed on his pinky finger that had been wounded back then and nodded along, as if he could still feel the pain from that day.
At his words, Ellen finally understood the full situation. She went over and took the children into her arms, explaining on Eugene’s behalf, “Please don’t blame him. He just mistook you for bad guys. See, isn’t he good to you now that he knows you’re his children?”
The Rogers siblings exchanged a glance before nodding. “He’s a good daddy. If you don’t believe me, you can ask North.” Upon saying that, Ellen pulled North to her side and asked lovingly, “Am I right, North?”
Shooting a glance at Eugene, North nodded unwillingly.
Feeling a sudden burst of guilt, Eugene rubbed his nose before reminding Ellen, “Mom, don’t tell anyone about this for now as it would be dangerous. After some time-passes, I’m planning to take them back to the villa. That way, I won’t have to worry as much either.” “By the way, where are you staying now?”
“Grandma, we’re living in Cardinal Tower.”
“Who’s staying with you?” At first, Ellen had only planned to visit Jewel, but she was so elated by the appearance of her three new grandchildren that she couldn’t be bothered by anything else. One moment, she was asking how their living quarters were, and the next, she wanted to know if they were eating well.
Eugene said helplessly, ‘Mom, Jewel, you two can stay here and help Olivia and me take care of the kids. I have to go and take a look at the company.”
Ellen’s attitude made a complete 180, and she couldn’t be any more courteous. “Okay, okay, go. and do what you have to do.”
In the end, the three children didn’t return to school, and Ellen stayed for the entire day as well. When Eugene went to pick Olivia up, he told her all about his meeting with Azalea and how the children had defended Olivia, proud of himself for coming clean.
After listening to him, Olivia couldn’t help but laugh, particularly after seeing the look on his. face that resembled an abandoned puppy.
Caressing his face, she said with a look of sympathy, “You have to know your place. See? If you dare to think otherwise, my sons will deal with you.” Eugene was speechless. “When did I do that?”
“Then, tell me, did our sons accuse you?” “That’s true. I’ve only ever thought of you differently. At that, Eugene tilted his head to look at her with a flirtatious glance. “Do you want to know how different they are?”
Olivia sent him a glare and pretended to look outside, her lips pursed tightly. She didn’t want to know what kind of dirty thoughts he was having.
Upon seeing that, Eugene smiled sweetly and reached out to take her hand in his palm, asking, “Doctor Maxwell, do you think that this is normal?”
“What?” Eugene looked at her and said, “I can’t stop myself from wanting to get closer and closer to you, to the point where I want to fuse your body with mine.”
Olivia’s lips were pressed into a thin line. “It’s not normal. You have to control yourself.” “How should I control myself?”
“Stop coming to the 59th floor.” Hearing that, Eugene viciously pinched her tender skin under his palm. “You heartless woman.”
“What are you doing? I’m giving you a suggestion as Doctor Maxwell,” Olivia chided him flirtatiously. “Then, what does my girlfriend suggest?”
“Your girlfriend suggests that you control yourself. You can have those thoughts, but you can’t scare your girlfriend.” Feeling both angry and amused by her words, Eugene asked, “So, you plan to torment me?*
Olivia refuted, “In order to prevent yourself from being tormented, your girlfriend suggests that you listen to Doctor Maxwell’s advice.”
