Chapter 80
It was only when the game had ended did Eugene put down his cell phone and looked up at Harriet
who was still holding up a wine ss. He thennguidly picked up the wine ss before him and
clinked it to hers. “You exaggerate, President Grant. Who am I to take offense to whoever you deign to
notice?”
“No, no. Although I’m a few years older than you, everyone knows your finesse in the business world,
President Nn. I still have much to learn from you,” Harriet replied deferentially.
“You tter me,” Eugenemented mildly. After saying that, he looked at Olivia. “Olivia,e here!”
It was the first time he’d ever addressed her thus, which Olivia found both refreshing and
embarrassing. Knowing that he was doing this for her sake, she tugged Kate over and sat down beside
him without any protest.
Entirely dumbfounded, Harriet looked at Eugene with an incredulous look in her eyes. “President
Nn, these twodies are…”
Eugene lifted his eyes to hers, his gaze sharp. “My friends!”
With just these two words, the two of them were pulled into his circle, and this elevation in status was
very much significant. Those who’d thought that they had no poprity or repute were now looking on
in envy as they rose to the heights they hankered.
Harriet chuckled. “Oh, it must have been a misunderstanding since they’re your friends, President
Nn.”
Eugene, however, didn’t respond to that. “I caught bits and pieces earlier, but I couldn’t quite make out
the situation. Was it my two friends who hit your brother?” he asked instead.
Harriet naturally didn’t dare affirm it. “No, it’s probably a misunderstanding. Since they’re your friends,
President Nn, I’ll just forget about this,” she replied immediately.
“You sound rather reluctant. It seems that it’s truly my two friends who are at fault here.” With a hint of
ridicule in his voice, Eugene sneered, “Logan, go and get the CCTV footage. After all, I’ve got to
ascertain who’s at fault here and give President Grant a reasonable exnation.”
While Logan wanted to keep the peace, he wasn’t foolish. Since Eugene had intervened in this matter,
he naturally had to look to him. At this moment, Eugene was obviously siding with the two women, so
he naturally couldn’t protest. Offending anyone else isn’t a problem as long as I stay on Eugene
Nn’s good side. Thus, he went straight to the security room.
It was only now that Luca was beginning to regret stirring the pot. I thought it was a guaranteed win
with Harriet Grant as my backing, but I never thought that we’d bump into Eugene Nn, let alone
imagined that these two women just happened to be his friends. Even if I want to leave now, that’s
probably impossible. I only hope that this old woman will be able to protect me from being annihted
by Eugene Nnter.
Logan was fairly quick, and he got the CCTV footage in no time. Although the CCTV footage had
sound, there were too many people talking, so the words weren’t quite intelligible. Besides, Luca’s
voice was soft in the first ce. However, the video was rather clear after zooming in, showing Luca
ncing over at Olivia before saying something to Kate, which caused her expression to change and to
grow infuriated at him. With ascivious smirk, he then stretched out an arm and yanked Kate into his
embrace, his hand moving from her waist to her bottom, his expression lewd.
Immediately after, Kate shoved him away and pped him across his face. Luca’s expression then
instantly turned vicious, and he pped her in return, throwing her clear off her feet. At this time, the
voices in the lobby quietened considerably, and Lucambasted Kate, “Do you think you’re such a big
deal just because you’re the editor-in-chief of a magazine I’ve never even heard of? If you want me to
help you, you either do as I say or get lost! Who the hell do you think you are that you even dared to hit
me? F*ck off!” This utterance was clear as a bell, including the dressing down of him being ignorant,
immoral, perverted, and shameless from Olivia after she’d given him a swift kick. It was simply a
magnificent sight!Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.
