Chapter 428


    After listening to Olivia, he suddenly felt as if his heart was being submerged in a hot spring, and it


    made the blood in his body feel warm and fuzzy. All this while, he had thought that his blood was made


    of ice, except when it came to his father, Edward Nn. He was obsessed with the thought of killing his


    father. “These are the happiest and most fulfilling days that I’ve ever had. I’m sure it’s the same for


    Brian too. Besides, it’s all due to your efforts that our rtionship has improved to what it is today. In


    the past, I never dared to dream of a day where I would have a wife and a child. There was nothing


    else in my life except revenge.”


    Olivia felt her heart breaking for him. “Did you stay behind for the sake of your revenge?”


    He nodded in response. “Yeah, I guess. It was also because of Brian. At the time, I was only 15. I was


    still a student and didn’t know much about how to manage apany. Moreover, Brian kept following


    me around all the time. Meanwhile, the entire high society shamed and humiliated my mother. She


    could have returned to her family. My grandfather would not have said anything, but my uncles would


    have treated her coldly. In the first ce, my mother had been framed. So, when her family refused to


    help her out and treated her coldly instead, there was no way she would continue to remain there with


    all the anger she felt toward them. Additionally, Brian would asionally faint without warning. He


    would be in great danger every time it happened. It was potentially life-threatening if rescue came just a


    bit slower. If my mother had to take care of both my brother and me without any source of ie


    whatsoever, how would she survive?”


    Staring at him in disbelief, she asked, “You considered all that at the tender age of 15?!”


    He burst outughing. “People grow up quickly when they are faced with troubles. If I didn’t experience


    all that, I don’t think I would have thought that far either. That night, I came home from school to see my


    mother and another man tied up on the floor and covered insh marks. Edward was sitting on the sofa


    with a stern expression, yelling at my mother and asking for a divorce. Later, I learned that it was


    because my mother and that man had been caught in an illicit rtionship by my father himself. More


    than 10 years ago, an unfaithful woman was not widely epted by the public. Thus, high society was


    flooded with all sorts of unbearable rumors that spread like wildfire, especially since my mother was a


    well-knowndy. You can never imagine what it feels like to be unable to clear one’s own name despite


    being set up. During their divorce, Edward was preupied with how he could get away with paying


    less alimony to my mother. However, all my mother wanted was Brian and me; she didn’t want anything


    else. Afterward, I heard from my mother that she had been deceived by that man. He had tricked her


    into going to the hotel. At the time, that man was a butler working at the residence. Since he usually


    took good care of us, my mother didn’t suspect him at all.”


    To be honest, she had heard this story from Brian before. Still, it wasn’t as in-depth and detailed as


    what Eugene was telling her right now. “Did your father set it all up?”


    “Yes. That butlerter died and took the secret of who he was working for at the time to his grave. I’m


    certain he was being ckmailed or threatened. But, I can think of nobody else aside from Edward and


    Lara. After all, Edward had been thinking of divorcing my mother and marrying Lara for a long time, but


    Grandpa opposed it. Besides, marriage among the wealthy was not something that could be broken up


    without just reason. It’s not wrong to say that it could lead to a domino effect. When Edward was


    unable to leave his marriage, he began to abuse my mother in all sorts of ways. When I say abuse, I


    don’t mean physical abuse. Instead, it was emotional abuse. He refused to go home. It might be an


    exaggeration to say that I never saw a glimpse of him throughout my childhood, but I only saw him


    asionally. On those asions, he was either having a screaming match with my mother or leaving


    the house after arguing with my mother! After that, my mother would secretly cry all by herself. Of


    course, both Brian and I would be yelled at too. But, inparison, he scolded me far less than he


    scolded Brian!”


    Olivia asked, “Why? Does your father prefer girls?”

    Eugene sneered, “No, he simply hates the children my mother gave birth to! The first time, he slept with


    my mother because he was drunk. Thus, I was conceived. For that reason, he married my mother.


    Down the road, Edward got into a rtionship with Lara and wanted a divorce. On the other hand,


    Brian was conceived due to the stupidest mistake my mother made as herst-ditch effort to get back


    her cheating husband. I don’t know who she got the idea from, but she drugged Edward and conceived


    Brian as a result. After that incident, Edward hated my mother to the core! Because of Brian and I, their


    marriage continued for more than ten years. During that time, he even threw Brian out of the house


    once. In the end, my mother was framed as an unfaithful wife, and my father finally got the divorce he


    wanted. Less than a month after his divorce, he openly married Lara.”
