Chapter 229
Henry faked a chuckle. “Olivia, I understand that you are mad. I’m furious too, but if something serious
were to happen to her, I think that you would be in trouble too.”
Olivia sneered, “Don’t worry. I won’t let her die; I want her to live in such a miserable state that she
would wish she were dead. You’d better remind your daughter to not fall into my hands again, because
I’ll make sure to take her life then!” Her voice was bone-piercingly cold, resembling the wind from a
snow-capped mountain which could freeze a person to death!
He took a deep breath and spoke in embarrassment, “Olivia, I’ve failed you. I-Is the child alright?”
She was like a porcupine that was full of spikes, especially when she was facing her father. If it weren’t
because he messed with Amy, allowed the mother and daughter to enter their house, and indulged
them, her child and her wouldn’t have fallen into such a state.
Therefore, how could a simple sorry make up for what he had done?
“What do you consider serious, then? He was injured all over when he was in Anna’s hands for only
three or four hours. He kept having nightmares at night, and this fear will affect his entire childhood. If it
weren’t for his clever escape, I doubt that my son would have been able to survive through that. Is your
daughter insane? After all these years, haven’t you taken her to go for any check-ups?”
Henry replied, “I’m sorry, Olivia. I was blind; I didn’t know that she’s such an extreme person.”
She coldly uttered, “There’s no need for you to say that. You have nothing to do with me anymore. If
the purpose of you calling me was to say these words, just forget about it. I’ll never forgive her. The
reason I didn’t take her life was not because for your sake; I just wanted her to live on to endure the
pain that she’s inflicted on my son!”
Upon hearing that Olivia seemed to have the intention to hang up the phone, he immediately said,
“Olivia, this is not what I wanted to say. I wanted to talk to you about something else…” He paused for
a moment at this point because he found it really embarrassing to ask for her help, but he couldn’t just
watch hispany go bankrupt. “Olivia, please help me. Eugene has started to target Maxwell
Company. I’m really at my wits’ end.”
Hearing that, she was stunned for some time. She thought that he called her because he was worried
about his grandson’s injuries and was pissed off by Anna’s action, so he wanted to apologize to her.
Yes! He did express his concern just now.
Though it wasn’t sincere, it at least gave her a littlefort.
But who could have guessed that there was a tant intention behind his fake concern.
From beginning until the end, he had never been concerned about North and her. If it hadn’t been
because of Eugene targeting him, he wouldn’t have even made this insincere call.
I’m utterly disappointed! Why did I still have any hope in him? She was overwhelmingly disappointed in
him. With a hand ced on her chest, she lowered her eyes and chuckled. It turns out that extreme
disappointment will cause one to feel heartbroken!
“Since Eugene is targeting you, you should straightaway go and look for him. Why did you call me
instead?”

With that, she directly hung up her phone. She suddenly felt cold, so she tightly hugged herself with
both arms and buried her head between her legs, curling herself into a ball.
Why did he even call me? Wasn’t he exhausted toe out with those lines of fake concerns?
At night, Eugene was called to Ruby Pce by Alex and Hayden.
However, he kept drinking throughout the night. He didn’t say nor eat much.
Seeing that he was going to raise his ss again, Alex abruptly pressed on his hand. “What’s wrong
with you? Did you go through a breakup?”
Eugene didn’t answer. He moved his hand away and downed another ss of beer beforezily
casting a nce at him. “Who did I even have a rtionship with?”
Alex failed to hold back hisughter. “Looks like it’s an unrequited love. Tell me about it. Could it be that
you were driven out by Olivia, the little beauty?”
