Chapter 802


    Olivia answered, "I know. It was back at Sean''s ce, wasn''t it?"


    Emerald smiled. "That''s right. You''re such a capable woman, Miss Maxwell. Not only are you a genius


    doctor, you are also the owner of a fashion studio."


    "Just trying to put food on the table," Olivia responded.


    Emerald looked a little fidgety as she continued with a smile, "You''re being modest, Miss Maxwell. I


    know you''re a brilliant woman, and I''m sure you know why I''m here. It''s about Nicole."


    Olivia cocked her eyebrow. "Why would youe to me if this is about her?"


    Emerald responded awkwardly, "To tell you the truth, her father had tried to see Eugene many times,


    but he wouldn''t grant him an audience. So, I have no choice but to seek you out; I know you''re his


    girlfriend. Please, help us. Nicole''s usually a good girl. I have no idea why she would do this. Please,


    have mercy on her. I''ll keep her on a leash from now on. I…"


    Tears welled in her eyes, and a lump formed in her throat. She had topose herself for a moment


    before she could continue. "She''s my only daughter. If she gets jailed, it''s over for her."


    Olivia poured some tea for Emerald and consoled, "I know how you feel, Mrs. West. But Eugene''s


    mother is the victim here. The assassination almost killed her. Alex—Eugene''s best friend—was also


    badly injured when he tried to save Eugene''s mother. He''s still recovering as we speak. I''m just


    Eugene''s girlfriend. I don''t think it''d be appropriate of me to plead for Nicole."

    Emerald grabbed Olivia''s hand, and with a broken voice, she convinced, "I know, but I am left with no


    other choice. He likes you, so I''m sure he''ll listen to you. All Nicole did was provide a map of Promise


    Ind. That''s not serious enough to be taken to court. We''re willing to settle this out of court at any


    price. Please, just tell him that. Please, I beg you."


    Olivia looked at Emerald calmly as she said, "Calm down, Mrs. West. I''m a parent as well. I can help


    you, but I make no promises. You think providing a map is nothing, but that''s the only reason the killers


    could make their way to Eugene''s mother without alerting the bodyguards. This was not something


    they did by chance. Nicole and Lara had nned this. It''s an attempted murder, which is why Eugene


    is livid.


    "You think putting Nicole through the court is bad? Eugene only agreed to bring her in by the book for


    your sake. He could have gone with a far more brutal method in the first ce. You weren''t at the


    scene, so you had no idea how furious he was to see his friends get hurt from trying to save his mother.


    And his mother almost died. Would you let the killer and their aplice off if you were in his shoes?"


    Emerald kept crying. "S-She was just duped, that''s all. I have no idea why she''d work with Lara. That


    woman is obviously evil. She must have tricked Nicole into this."


    Olivia pulled out a tissue and handed it to her. "Here, wipe your tears!"


    Emerald then stood up. "Miss Maxwell, you''re a good person. Tell Eugene I can do anything as long as


    he doesn''t sue Nicole."


    Olivia answered, "Sure, I''ll tell him that, but don''t hold your breath."


    Tears streamed down Emerald''s cheeks once again as she said, "I know. Thank you for the help." With


    that, she exited the studio.
