Chapter 230


    He had a shred of exhaustion on his expression, and his tone was sluggish. “When have I not been


    serious?”


    Hayden added, “No. Eugene, Olivia has a child.”

    Eugene eximed, “I don’t care!”


    A slight hesitation was found in Hayden’s expression. “You can choose not to care, but can the Nn


    Family ept her?”


    Eugene’s tone carried a hint of arrogance. “Do I need to be concerned about their opinions?”


    Both Alex and Hayden knew the situation in the Nn Family—the family only seemed harmonious on


    the surface. With Old Man Nn in power now, the family members were more constrained. If Old Man


    Nn were to pass away one day, nobody could tell how chaotic the Nn Family would be.


    Eugene indeed didn’t need to listen to anybody. But if he really married a woman who had a child, this


    news might probably create an uproar among the upper-ss social circle.


    Before they managed toe to their senses from the shocking news, the door of their private room


    was pushed open. Two women entered from outside—Aleena and Nicole.


    “We have just arrived and heard that you guys were here, so we thought toe over to say hello.


    Why are only the three of you here?” Nicole smiled as she asked.


    Alex smiled. “Right. The upright and noble Young Master Nn didn’t allow me to get someone here to


    apany us. Are there only the two of you here? Or do you have friends? If you guys are alone, you


    cane and join us!”


    This was exactly what Nicole had wished for. “No, there’s just the two of us.” After saying that, she


    walked up to the couch.


    Eugene’s brows were slightly furrowed, but he didn’t say anything. Alex immediately handed them two


    sses. “That’s great. Young Master Nn wants to drink today. The two of you should drink together


    with him; we have had enough!”


    Nicole took the ss and smiled as she replied, “Sure. I think that it has been quite some time since I


    last saw Eugene. What have you been busy with recently?” As she was speaking, she raised the ss


    at Eugene and gestured at him. He naturally took a sip and replied half-heartedly, “Work!”


    Aleena was not as natural as Nicole was. As a matter of fact, since they parted ways in this room


    previously, she had beencking the courage to look for him. Of course, she missed him, but she was


    sad as well. She couldn’t forget his heartlessness, nor she could figure out what kind of charm Olivia


    had to make him fall so hard for her to the extent where he was willing to put everyone else after her.


    In fact, Aleena had been keeping an eye on him all the while. It was the grand opening of Olivia’s


    studio that day. When she deliberately drove past their door, she saw him draping a jacket on her with


    a gentle expression and kept her apanied under the cold wind. That scene was really irritating.


    She could barely resist the urge to dash out from the car to ask him how a used woman like Olivia


    would be a good match to him. However, after she considered the consequences of this action, she


    arrived at a conclusion that Eugene would surely be mad at her; he would be biased toward Olivia and


    would certainly me her. This might even ruin the little possibility of them getting together. Therefore,


    she tried her best to suppress herself and hold back the urge to get out of the car.


    Judging by the current situation, she found her effort worth it. Sure enough, patience is the key to


    sess. I’ve finally waited until they broke up. Separation is bound toe after a long-period union—


    this is a never-changing truth! No matter how deeply he is in love with her, there will certainly be a day


    when they break up!


    Upon having such thoughts, she felt relieved. Raising her ss, she gestured at Eugene. “Eugene,


    let’s have a toast. Let bygones be bygones. Please forgive me for all my past mistakes.”


    He sat on the couch and peered at her. “You are overstating it. We are both adults, so all we need to do


    is to be responsible for our past actions.” As he spoke, he didn’t put her in a spot; he raised his ss


    and drank together with her.


    Alex had a smirk on his corner of his lips. “Stop beating around the bush. What do you mean by


    forgiving your past actions? Just tell us straight!”


    Aleena cast a nce at Eugene. Seeing that he didn’t give any response, she felt a little aggrieved, so


    she answered, “It was my cousin, Robin. After he met Miss Maxwell, he told me that he had fallen in


    love with her. So, I encouraged him and asked him to court her if he fancied her. However, before he


    managed to get her to like him, he forced himself on her. But Eugene thought that it was me who asked


    him to do so…”
