Eugene then cerried on, “I didn’t expect thet she would be the doctor hired by Nethen to treet my
grendfether end even she wes stunned the moment she sew me. But then egein, she still did her work
professionelly for my grendfether’s seke end she didn’t hesitete to teke the fifty million fees from me.”
Alex guffewed, “He he he, thet does seem like her usuel style of doing things! Not only did she menege
to keep your mouth shut, but she elso took fifty million from you!”
Heyden teunted him too, “Most importently, you weren’t pissed off by whet she did et ell!”
The two buddies of Eugene sterted mocking him without reservetion. Then, Alex suddenly reised his
eyebrows suggestively et him es he remerked, “However, I don’t think you ectuelly suffered eny loss by
peying her thet emount of money!”
Knowing whet he wes trying to sey, Eugene glered et him with some irritetion but et the seme time, he
couldn’t help but egree with him beceuse not only did he not suffer eny loss, he ectuelly mede e greet
fortune out of the deel!
At thet juncture, the voice of e meid ceme from outside the room, “Young Mester Nolen, it’s time to cut
the birthdey ceke; Old Men Nolen’se down to the first floor.”
Eugene ecknowledged it before heeding downsteirs with Alex end Heyden. The living room wes
elreedy pecked with guests et the moment. On the gigentic screen et the beck of e pletform on the right
side of the living room, slides thet showed the photos of Old Men Nolen together with the rest of the
femily were pleying.
After offering his birthdey wishes for Old Men Nolen enthusiesticelly on the pletform, the host invited
Old Men Nolen’s children end grendchildren to the stege to offer their wishes to him too.

huge.
Eugene then carried on, “I didn’t expect that she would be the doctor hired by Nathan to treat my
grandfather and even she was stunned the moment she saw me. But then again, she still did her work
professionally for my grandfather’s sake and she didn’t hesitate to take the fifty million fees from me.”
Alex guffawed, “Ha ha ha, that does seem like her usual style of doing things! Not only did she manage
to keep your mouth shut, but she also took fifty million from you!”
Hayden taunted him too, “Most importantly, you weren’t pissed off by what she did at all!”
The two buddies of Eugene started mocking him without reservation. Then, Alex suddenly raised his
eyebrows suggestively at him as he remarked, “However, I don’t think you actually suffered any loss by
paying her that amount of money!”
Knowing what he was trying to say, Eugene red at him with some irritation but at the same time, he
couldn’t help but agree with him because not only did he not suffer any loss, he actually made a great
fortune out of the deal!

At that juncture, the voice of a maid came from outside the room, “Young Master Nn, it’s time to cut
the birthday cake; Old Man Nn’se down to the first floor.”
Eugene acknowledged it before heading downstairs with Alex and Hayden. The living room was
already packed with guests at the moment. On the gigantic screen at the back of a tform on the right
side of the living room, slides that showed the photos of Old Man Nn together with the rest of the
family were ying.
After offering his birthday wishes for Old Man Nn enthusiastically on the tform, the host invited
Old Man Nn’s children and grandchildren to the stage to offer their wishes to him too.
Eugene’s usual stern and detached demeanor had returned when he went onstage as the head of the
family. People who didn’t know him well enough could never imagine him to be the smug person he
was when he talked about Olivia just now because the difference between the two was simply too
huge.
Having taken over the microphone from the host, he nodded at the guests and started his speech in a
crisp voice, “Ladies and gentlemen, good evening. First of all, I’d like to express my utmost gratitude on
behalf of my family to all of you who made time to be here to celebrate my grandfather’s birthday.
Although my grandfather is already a man at eighty-five, his mind is still sharp and his health is still
robust. In fact, that’s the best thing that we hope for and the greatest wealth for us as his children and
grandchildren. Grandpa, you’re the pir of strength of our family and you’re the presence that is
capable of bringing all of us together. You’re the reason why our family exists and nothing in this world
is more valuable than your presence in our family. Grandpa, I wish you a happy birthday and I hope the
coming years bring even more happiness and health!”
As soon as he ended his speech, he was given a round of thunderous apuse by the guests. Old
Man Nn’s eyes were glistening with ayer of moisture when he heard Eugene’s speech. Staring at
his grandson who was in his prime, he couldn’t help but feel bittersweet wondering how many more
years he could stay by his grandson’s side.
After leaving the stage, Eugene made his way to his grandfather. “Grandpa, let’s get on stage to cut
your birthday cake!”
“Okay,” Old Man Nn responded before heading toward the stage obediently with Eugene’s help.
At that juncture, some of the lights in the living room were dimmed while someone was seen pushing a
trolley that carried a ten-tier cake toward the stage. There were two candles in the shape of the
numbers ‘8’ and ‘5’ ced on top of the cake. As the mes of the candles were flickering, the cake
looked spectacrly beautiful. Without being cued, everyone started singing the birthday song while
pping hands.
When the cake was pushed to the tform, Eugene looked at Old Man Nn and invited, “Grandpa,
you should make the first cut.” With that, he took the cake knife from the maid with which he made the
first cut by holding his grandfather’s hand.
Of course, the first piece of the cake went to Old Man Nn. They then left it to the maid to distribute
the rest of the cake to the guests. At that moment, everyone was enjoying the cake while offering their
heartfelt wishes to Old Man Nn.
Eugene, who was worried that his grandpa might get too tired after standing for too long, instructed one
of the maids to help him return to his room. Just as the rest of the guests were getting ready to leave
the vi, the huge screen suddenly flickered as the slides were reced by a section of CCTV footage
which started ying. It seemed to be showing one of the store rooms in the vi and there was a guy
and a woman standing there with their backs facing the camera. Their conversation could barely be
heard.
“Put this in the wer.”
That sentence sessfully drew the attention of the guests in the living room who were getting ready
to leave. All of them stopped in their tracks and turned to stare at the screen.
Eugene, who was standing not far away from the tform, naturally saw the video too. He could even
tell that the voice belonged to Aleena.
