    Chapter 1383 George’s Dilemma


    The tightness in his throat that Eugene felt earlier was immediately reced with a darkened


    expression when he heard Olivia’s words—criticizing his manhood was practically like ying with fire.


    His hand still holding hers, he leaned in closer to her with a dangerous smile ying on his lips. “Go


    on! Say it again. I’m listening.” At first, Olivia was only nning to tease him, but his fierce demeanor


    startled her for a moment. However, she soon calmed down and shed a bright smile at him. “What


    are you trying to do?” Eugene growled viciously in reply, “Let me jog your memory for you; did you


    forget how you were begging for forgiveness underneath me?” Olivia’s dark eyes bore into his without


    any trace of fear, but the emotion was rather filled with provocation. “Then, do you not want a daughter


    anymore?” Eugene froze at her words. No wonder this woman is flirting with me. How dare she try to


    torment me? Mustering all his strength to suppress the sudden urge that arose within him, Eugene


    gritted his teeth in anger. “Just you wait, you minx. Wait until my daughter is born.”


    Olivia smiled at him smugly. “Gene… Don’t forget to work out until then.” Eugene was instantly


    rendered speechless, filled with the urge to teach her a lesson. As dinnertime rolled around, things


    turned out as Hector and Ellen had expected—Eugene led Olivia downstairs, their hands intertwined


    and their eyes filled with smiles, making it clear that they had made up. Ellen let out a helplessugh


    upon seeing that he had indeed guessed correctly. She secretly cast a nce at Hector, only to meet


    his gaze. As soon as their gazes shed, they shared a knowing smile. “Come and eat,” Ellen


    ushered. One by one, they took their seats. As time went on, the number of people in their household


    had begun to increase, and now Penny had joined them along with the usual people. As she hoped to


    find out where George sat to pick a seat close to him, she did not take a seat even after the others had


    already done so. To her dismay, George deliberately avoided her every single time. After this situation


    repeatedly urred, she slowly began to lose confidence, and even if there was an empty seat near


    him, she would not have the nerve to take it as he woulde up with every reason in the book to


    switch seats whenever she was next to him. Hence, she could only settle for sitting opposite him,


    reassuring herself that she could still look at him at the very least. On the other hand, George was truly


    fed up. These past few days felt like a living hell for him. These two women would put on a dramatic


    show multiple times a day, and he would be summoned to decide who was in the right or wrong every


    single time. Now, he wished for nothing more than to toss them both out the door. However, as one of


    them was his patient, he couldn’t push her away, and the other was Eugene’s sister and Olivia’s sister-


    inw, so he had no way of driving her out either. Hence, he had no choice but to live in hiding, hoping


    that the two of them would grow some self-awareness.


    Earlier, he had heard from Penny’s chattering that Olivia had already chased Mika away, so it


    seemed that she would not be returning any time soon. If that weren’t the case, he was certain that he


    would eventually be driven into insanity by these two women. At the dinner table, Eugene suddenly


    spoke up. “Olivia and I might have to leave in a few days.”


    As soon as his words fell, the rest whirled around to look at him. Ellen’s brow furrowed deeply at his


    words. “You’ve juste back; where are you going again? The kids have been waiting for you for


    days. In any case, you’re supposed to spend some time with them at home, aren’t you?” Eugene


    answered, “Yeah, we’ll spend some time with them for now, and we’ll only be leaving in a few days.


    Someone is sick and is asking for Olivia’s help, but I’m worried about her, so I have to go with her.” At


    that, he turned toward Alex. “You and Jewel might have to stay here for a few more days. If you have


    any urgent matters to attend to, use these few days to take care of them.” “Is it Albert?” asked Alex. As


    a matter of fact, he wanted to ask them which one of Albert’s subordinates got ill to the extent where


    Eugene had to visit every single day as if he were clocking into work. The fact that he was even tagging


    along in an event as minor as picking someone up from the airport showcased how important this


    person was to him. However, as Jewel and George were the only other people present who knew


    about Albert’s true identity, he did not go into the details. Even so, Eugene understood what he meant,


    and he only hummed vaguely in reply without saying anything else. North and the other three childrenN?velDrama.Org holds this content.


    exchanged unhappy nces; they had just returned, after all. He turned to look at Olivia. “How long are


    you going to be there?”
