Chapter 425 You and I Are Sworn Enemies for Life
Olivia said, “I can wake him up at any time. Do you want me to wake him up? What if he attacks you again?”
Eugene smiled as he tugged on her hand. “Don’t I have you? I can’t believe how amazing you are!”
She snorted in response. “Don’t look down on me. Ever since I learned acupuncture, I’ve been studying acupuncture points. I know where to stick my needle to make somebody go numb or make somebody hurt so badly they’d want to faint. This is no big deal, alright?”
Then, he gently held her hand in his. However, his eyes were filled with heartache—she must have gone through a lot of suffering to obtain her current abilities. “My girlfriend is the best.”
Upon hearing that, she became very pleased. Feeling warm and fluffy inside, she said, “Of course. So, do you really want to wake him up?”
He replied, “Yeah. I want to ask him what’s going on.”
Thus, she grunted in reply. Taking out a needle, she stuck it into Brian’s wrist. In less than three minutes, he slowly regained consciousness. As he glanced around in confusion, he recognized the familiar atmosphere and decorations—he was inside Olivia’s house. Closing his eyes, he wished he could just faint again right then.
Olivia noticed that he was awake. Stepping forward with a gloomy expression, she said, “If you have something to say, say it. If Eugene deserves a beating, I won’t stop you then.”
Eugene spoke too. “Is it because you’re in a bad mood and simply need a place to vent your emotions? Or, did somebody say something to you?”
At first, Brian had no plans to talk. However, his fury surged up without any warning upon hearing Eugene’s voice. Thus, he sat up abruptly. Almost instantly, Olivia and North stood in front of Eugene. “If you have something to say, say it. Don’t fight!”
Brian was shocked. Are they worried I might attack? How can they be so selfless for the sake of Eugene?!
Eugene was also surprised to see the two people standing in front of him. For a moment, he was so touched that he didn’t know how to express his feelings. He felt a bit like crying, and his voice became hoarse too. “I’m fine,” he said and made them sit down on the sofa.
Brian sneered, “What about him is so worth it that you’d protect him in this manner?”
Eugene asked, “What on earth did you learn about me?”
On the other hand, Brian questioningly asked, “Are you afraid of people finding out?”
Then, Eugene’s expression darkened. “What am I afraid of?”
Brian snorted coldly, “Isaac Black; he works for you, right?”
Eugene was shocked by his words. “You’ve seen him?! Where is he?!”
After that, Brian closed his eyes slightly. The disappointment that washed over him at that moment nearly broke him. Perhaps, I still held some hope in my heart. I clearly hoped that I had merely misunderstood him and falsely accused him. But, what else am I expecting now?
“Are you looking for him? Why?”
However, Eugene was rather anxious. “Where is he?!”
Brian was seeing red by then. “It’s too late. He told me everything.”
In response, Eugene frowned. “What did he say?”
Ignoring him, Brian gazed at Olivia and North. “Do you know what kind of person you’re trying to protect? He is a demon! For the sake of his own prosperity, he abandoned me and my mother. Putting that aside, he even arranged for somebody to cause a car accident to kill my mother! How can I not hit him?! I want to kill him!” He glared at Eugene with eyes full of hatred. “Eugene, you and I are sworn enemies for life!”
Upon hearing that, Olivia exclaimed in surprise, “T-That’s impossible, right?! Aren’t you biological brothers?” They had the same mother! How could Eugene possibly do something like that?!
Eugene scowled fiercely, and his eyes seemed disappointed. “Brian, I thought you learned a little more about me after spending so much time together. At the very least, you should have learned to distinguish the truth from lies. I can’t believe you’re still so easily provoked!”
Then, Brian stood up agitatedly, pointing at Eugene and yelling, “Shut up! Provoke? I was the one who trusted you far too much! I trusted you so much that I nearly denied my own existence! What about you?! What have you done?! How could you lay a hand on Mom?!”
