“I don’t know what you’re saying. I have something else to attend to, so I’ll leave now.” Azalea spoke quickly and turned to leave, but Shannon stopped her before she could take more than two steps.
She stood expressionlessly before Azalea, crossing her arms as she looked coldly at her. “Eugene hasn’t allowed you to leave yet. You should stay, Azalea.”
Then, Azalea shoved Shannon away in anger and annoyance. “How dare you stop me? Don’t forget, you’re no more than my bodyguard!” However, Shannon corrected her earnestly, “No, I am Eugene’s bodyguard. I was just tasked temporarily to protect you!”
After hearing that, Azalea pointed her finger at Shannon, her expression turning foul. “You little… Step aside!” She didn’t feel like arguing. so she tried to walk around Shannon, but Shannon stood in her way again. Then, she shouted at Shannon, as if in a frenzy, “Get lost!”
Still, Shannon remained cold as she said, “Tillet you go when Eugene says the word!” Suddenly, Azalea’s eyes were red as she turned to look at Eugene. “What exactly do you want? Eugene, what did I do to wrong you that you’d humiliate me like this?”
Meanwhile, Ellen and Brian were clueless throughout the whole process. They couldn’t figure out what Eugene was trying to do at all.
Even though Eugene had repaid the favor of saving his life, Ellen could not help but feel pity for Azalea because she believed he should not rush to kill Azalea. Then, Ellen looked at him in confusion.
On the other hand, his voice was emotionless, and his expression remained icy as he remarked, “You saved my life before, and I never once denied it. I always remembered it in my heart and did everything I could to repay your kindness. If I’m being honest, you’re still alive today because I begged your brother for mercy. Even though you did many things that harmed me and my family, I kept giving you another chance because of what you did for me, but you’re asking too much now. Do you think I have no idea of what you did?”
Azalea trembled uncontrollably and argued, “You can’t just listen to Cameron alone. He wished I were dead so he could put all the blame on me!”
Then, Eugene said, “You don’t have to keep pushing it on him. He’s been defending you and trying to take responsibility for every crime you committed. If I’m not mistaken, he likes you.”
When she heard that, she looked up in shock. With Cameron acting like that, how could he believe Cameron likes me? “If he liked me, why would he rob and even try to kill me?”
Eugene sneered in response and explained, “You falling into the sea was just an accident. I think he wasn’t trying to kill you, or perhaps he was a little too obsessed with you, and that’s why he was being possessive of you.”
After hearing that, Azalea felt these words were more hurtful and humiliating than getting slapped in her face. Nevertheless, he didn’t hold back and didn’t show her any mercy as he laid bare her wounds in front of everyone!
Soon, tears welled in her eyes as she confirmed in disbelief, “You’re bothered about this incident, so you said those words to me, trying to cut ties with me. You think I’m not worthy of you, not even as a friend. Is that right?” Eugene’s expression turned dark in response. How did she come to this conclusion?
On the other hand, Olivia was even more speechless as she said rudely to Azalea, “You’re overthinking it. You’re not his girlfriend, so why would he be bothered? You should reflect on everything you did instead. You’re so cruel and have so many evil tricks up your sleeve that you don’t even care if you cross the line. Anyone would want to stay away from you. Why can’t you understand that? You had some good cards, but you, unfortunately, lost them all!”
“Shut up, Olivia! Shut up!” Azalea pointed at her.. “If it weren’t for you, Eugene would’ve been with me for 6 years. You’re the one who destroyed our relationship, who stepped between us and tore us apart!”
