Chapter 429

All of a sudden, Olivia could somewhat understand Eugene’s hatred. Anybody would choose to get revenge if they

had a father who not only shirked his duties as a father but also framed their mother, who had suffered all sorts of

abuse because of him. Then, she glanced at Eugene suspiciously. “At that time, Lara and Edward must have been

very suspicious of you, right? How did you survive? Moreover, you even managed to help out your mother and

Brian in secret.” After saying that, she abruptly turned to look at him. “What Brian said couldn’t have been true,

right?”

It wasn’t as if she didn’t trust him, but the way he was acting tonight clearly showed that he blamed himself for

what happened. If this incident had nothing to do with him, he wouldn’t act like that!

In response, Eugene lifted his gaze and looked at her with an expression that seemed to say: ‘How could you think

that of me?!’

Thus, she hurriedly explained, “I know you weren’t behind it. But, the way you act makes me think that you were

involved in the matter somehow, right?”

He sighed deeply before saying, “Yes, you’re right! My mother got into the car accident six months after she left the

Nolan Family. After they left, I began recruiting and training my own men in secret. I didn’t have money, but

Grandpa doted on me at the time. Thus, my allowance was never cut off. Isaac was the first person I recruited at

the time. He wasn’t chosen to be a bodyguard candidate, but I took him in because he seemed capable. But, I

didn’t hire him to protect me. At the Nolan Residence, I was protected by Grandpa. Therefore, Edward and Lara

didn’t dare to openly do anything to me. However, that wasn’t the same for my mother and Brian. For that reason, I

sent Isaac to secretly protect my mother and Brian. After that, he devoted himself to protecting my mother for

more than three months. During that period, he managed to solve some minor troubles for them. Just as I was

starting to let my guard down and focus on my own affairs, I received a phone call from him one day. He told me

that he had accidentally collided into the car my mother was in while he was driving, and my mother was in the

hospital for emergency treatment.” Pausing for a moment, he sighed again. “I was still young and inexperienced, so

I didn’t think too much about it. When I was older, I finally noticed that there were too many coincidences lined up

together for that incident to actually be a coincidence. Isaac was working for me, but he ran into my mother. The

main purpose for that was to turn us brothers against each other. You saw it for yourself; Brian would still believe

that even today. Secondly, they wanted to get rid of my mother lest she caused trouble in the future. Lastly, Brian

would be a goner without my mother. It was three birds with one stone. Unfortunately, I didn’t consider it so deeply

at the time. Back then, Isaac knelt in front of me and begged for mercy. So, I sent him to the police station after

beating him up. By the time the pieces of the puzzle clicked in place for me, he was gone without a trace. Since

then, I’ve been looking for him. I’ve been blaming myself for it—why didn’t I notice what they did in the first place?”

Upon hearing that, her expression became one of disgust. After that, she comforted him, saying, “You were young,

naïve, and inexperienced back then. Moreover, no ordinary person could have imagined that they would do

something so unimaginably cruel! Still, don’t you think it’s strange that the man you’ve been looking for all this

while would suddenly turn up at your doorstep?”

He replied, “Yes, they must be trying to create a rift between Brian and me on purpose. I guess they felt that we

were getting along too well. So, they released that man to confuse us with falsehoods.”

She asked, “Do you mean Lara and your father?”

In response, he looked gloomy. “Who else could it be if not them?”

On the other hand, she looked extremely concerned. “But, how are you going to explain this to Brian? After all,

Isaac was one of your men! I believe everything you said, but Brian might not!”

Holding her hands in his, Eugene’s thumb gently made circles against the back of her hand as he mockingly smiled

and said, “They must be certain that Brian and I will turn against each other like how we did before. That’s why they

released Isaac. But, they’ve forgotten that I’m no longer the same person I was back then. If it wasn’t out of

respect for Grandpa, we might have been at each other’s throats a long time ago. For now, I want Grandpa to live

out the rest of his life peacefully. I will get my revenge on them sooner or later. Besides, I have sufficient reasons to

make Brian believe me.”

Then, Olivia stared at him in surprise. “What?”
