Chapter 119 Someone’s Bullying My Mom!
Olivia gave a cold snort. “I’m the one making a fuss? I haven’t even started causing trouble yet!” With this, she hung up the call.
She knelt again toward the gravestone and bowed piously. Olivia’s voice was calm as she continued, “Just you wait, Mom. I’ll avenge you. I won’t let you die in vain!”
With this, Olivia immediately got up and descended the mountain.
Marcus was slightly afraid as he saw Olivia like this. Hence, he asked, “What happened?”
Olivia replied, “It’s nothing. You can go back first, Marcus.”
How could Marcus go back since he had pretty much overheard that whole conversation as he stood near Olivia just now.
“Don’t try confronting the tough with toughness. You’ve just returned and your foundation is not very stable. On the other hand, they have their people everywhere. Even if you tie them up and bring them here, they still wouldn’t be sincere and would just put on an act. Hence, what’s the use for all this? This isn’t even enough to disturb Aunt Grace, so just let them be!”
Olivia looked toward Marcus and asked, “Since when have I seemed like a reasonable and approachable person to you?”
With this, she put on her sunglasses and led North toward the car rental area.
At this very moment, Eugene was holding a large-scale internal meeting.
He sat on his chair with a calm and expressionless face. His cold eyes swept across the room and this made everyone silent.
Eugene had a more angular face. Hence, it gave off an impression that he was a fierce person that did not tolerate any nonsense whenever he did not smile.
There was only one manager in the conference room who was presenting and discussing the summary reports.
All of a sudden, a phone vibration sound could be heard.
Everyone looked at each other and swiftly checked their phones—they were afraid that it was their own phone’s vibration.
They did not know who was daring enough to not switch off their phone during the meeting.
However, after everyone looked around the room, they noticed that it was their own president’s phone that was ringing.
Eugene could not help but furrow his eyebrows. He had unexpectedly forgotten to switch off his phone today. Initially, he wanted to ignore the call, but two messages followed after the call.
He picked up his phone and glanced at it. Then, he noticed that the messages were sent by North. ‘Someone’s bullied Mommy!’
‘My mommy has gone to Fairview Hotel. Please hurry over!’
After Eugene finished reading the messages, his face changed immediately. Who dares to bully her?
Without much thinking, he stood up and spat out two words, “Meeting canceled!”
Everyone in the meeting room was in a daze and discussions started heating up. “What’s the situation?”
“How was someone able to call our iron-blooded president out of this meeting?”
“Come on over, everyone. I’m betting 5 kilograms of langoustines that the other party is a woman.”
“I’m betting 25 kilograms of langoustines that she’s a beautiful woman!”
“I’m betting 50 kilograms that the other party will surely become our president’s wife!”
“F*ck! What’s the point if everyone’s betting on that woman?”

Inside Fairview Hotel, happy songs and laughter filled the room at this very moment. All the guests were dressed glamorously with gorgeous hairstyles as they mingled around and made toasts to one another.
On the other hand, Anna and Hugo stood opposite each other on the stage while their eyes were full of deep feelings.
The host adjusted the overall atmosphere of the room. “Holding each other’s hands as they grow old together, these seven years of marriage are not just mere oaths for Mr. and Mrs. Gray, but something they’ve actively acted out. The formation of such an eternal unity between these two has really touched my heart. Their love has penetrated every trickle of their life. Such integration of each other’s flesh and blood in one another’s lives have been sublimated into their spirit and soul. The river of their love will continue to trickle and flow forever. Here, I would like to invite Mr. and Mrs. Gray to express their current thoughts and feelings.”
Then, Anna took the microphone and looked shyly at Hugo, who looked hesitant, before saying, “Hugo, it’s been seven years now. People say that there’s the seven-year-itch, but I don’t feel it in our marriage at all. You’re still my one true love since the very beginning.”
