Chapter 389 Server Down
Brian seemed to be convinced and nodded. “Sure.”
Olivia chuckled. “Great, let’s have dinner. You should come over for a meal tomorrow. We have to cook, after all.” He immediately agreed. “Okay.”
Eugene was rendered speechless when he heard that. Shouldn’t she consult me about this matter since I’m the one who’s cooking? It’s quite… troublesome to cook for an additional person after all!
After having dinner at Olivia’s home, Eugene was still worried about Brian and planned to personally drive him home. However, two figures unexpectedly flashed across behind them and while Eugene noticed their appearance, he ignored them.
On the other hand, Brian realized that too, signaling Eugene with a look while nudging him. After that, he scolded Eugene, “Who else would have so much time on their hands to follow me if they aren’t your subordinates? Tell them to keep a distance; otherwise, I’ll beat them up—one after another!”
Eugene was at a loss for words when he heard that.
Fortunately, he knew Brian well enough; otherwise, if it were anyone else, they would have assumed that Brian had suffered from a split personality disorder due to his sudden outburst.
Nevertheless, Eugene wasn’t worried if those people saw him. So what if they see us? With that, he reached out to squeeze Brian’s shoulder.
On the other hand, Brian was still immersed in his act and even swatted Eugene’s hand away. “Don’t touch me and stop pretending around me. I don’t care if you’re protecting or following me. I don’t need it!”
Eugene was feeling helpless. In any case, I can’t very well hit an already injured person, can I? Therefore, he could only play along and act. He stood still while staring at Brian before stating casually, “I’m doing this for your own good.”
Brian retorted, “I don’t need you to care about me! You should just go back to being President Nolan! We will never see eye to eye on things! You better get lost!”
Eugene frowned slightly. It’s true that people tend to get used to things. In all honesty, my younger brother has only started to change the way he speaks to me. Now that he’s speaking to me in such a rude manner, I can feel my blood boil.
Therefore, he turned to the direction where those people hid in the dark and shouted, “Who’s there? Show yourself!”
The figures in the dark panicked and swiftly fled the scene.
Once they were gone, Eugene turned to look at Brian. “That was unnecessary.”
Brian glared. “What do you mean by unnecessary? Isn’t what I said the truth?!”
Eugene was rendered speechless when he heard that. I would have punched him and walked off if he weren’t my younger brother, which is rather frustrating. “Do you want me to send you back?”
Brian glared at him vehemently. “Are you planning on returning to accompany your girlfriend? Dream on!” Then, he opened the car door to enter.
Eugene sat in the silent car for the longest time.
After waiting for a while and seeing that Eugene wasn’t planning to drive, Brian asked, “Are you driving me home? Get out of the car if you aren’t! I’ll drive myself!”
Have you seen anyone as arrogant as he is? He’s chasing me out of my own car.
“If I knew this is how you repay me, I wouldn’t have treated you in such a rush!”
Eugene blurted out of nowhere and Brian was bewildered when he heard that. “Well, you are not the one treating me.”
Upon hearing that, Eugene glared. “You are using up my girlfriend’s time. Her senior had stayed over for half a month and now that he’s finally gone, she needs to treat you for another six weeks. If this continues, I’m not even sure who my girlfriend is anymore!”
Brian burst out in laughter when he heard that. “Maybe… this is fated. Don’t worry; if I were to end up with Olivia, I will treat your son as if he were my own!”
Eugene was at a loss for words when he heard that. He squinted at Brian. “Are you bragging since the server is now functioning?”
Brian snorted in response while rolling his eyes at Eugene. “I doubt it would stay functional for long. Such a brilliant son should belong to me.”
Eugene gave an eerie smile. “Do you know why your server failed?” Come on, let’s hurt each other!
Brian was stumped when he heard that. “Who did it?”
Eugene answered gleefully, “If you repeat those words of yours, I assure you that your server will be down again!”
Brian seemed to have grasped something upon hearing that. Therefore, he squinted at Eugene while asking him tentatively, “Are you telling me that you are involved in that matter?”
