Chapter 975 Phony
It was already past 10.00PM by the time Eugene and Olivia arrived at the airport, and they had just
entered when Olivia spotted Azalea who was waiting by the entrance. She was still just as stunning
and meek, and she seemed a little pitiful as she waited alone by the entrance.
Before they could approach her, Azalea had already noticed them, and she shouted excitedly,
"Eugene!"
With Olivia''s hand in his, Eugene walked toward Azalea and stopped in front of her. "Why are you
here?"
Azalea gently nibbled on her lower lip without saying anything, but a tear slowly rolled down her cheek.
At that, Eugene and Olivia exchanged a shocked look. "What''s wrong?"
Azalea nced at Olivia, hesitating to speak.
Noticing her apprehension, Eugene hurriedly exined, "This is my girlfriend, Olivia Maxwell. You can
just say whatever you want."
Azalea nodded, greeting her, "Nice to meet you."
Olivia responded with a smile, "Nice to meet you too."
However, Azalea didn''t continue to speak, most likely only wanting to speak to Eugene.
Tactfully, Olivia decided to give them some privacy. "I''ll go and get the car. The two of you can chat."
She was about to leave when Eugene grabbed her, stopping her from walking away. "Hold on. Let''s go
together."
With that, he took the luggage from Azalea''s hand. "Come on, let''s go and look for a ce to grab a
bite."
Azalea said, "I''m not hungry."
"We haven''t eaten yet." Upon saying that, Eugene headed toward the exit with Olivia''s hand in his left
hand and the luggage in the right.
She was nning to walk next to them, but she was left behind before she knew it.
Just then, Olivia noticed that she was limping and couldn''t help but ask, "What''s wrong with your leg?"
Azalea shook her head. "It''s nothing."
However, Eugene suddenly recalled that her leg had been hurt, and he turned around to ask her in a
concerned tone, "Are you all right?"
She lifted her gaze to look at him, and though she remained silent, her teary eyes seemed to say,
''What will you do if I''m not?''
He jolted, realizing that Olivia might get jealous if he carried Azalea.
Just as he was racking his brains for a solution, Olivia suddenly spoke up. "I''ll help you."

Then, she walked over and wrapped her arm around Azalea''s.
Azalea smiled and said, "Thank you."
"It''s nothing. You''re Eugene''s friend, which makes you my friend as well. If Eugene isn''t free in the
future, you can juste to me," Olivia replied.
In other words, she was hinting at Azalea to stop going to her boyfriend without a good reason.
However, Azalea looked at her and smiled. "Okay."
Eugene first took Azalea to an inn to leave her things before he brought them to a restaurant. After they
were seated, he resumed their earlier conversation. "What happened to you?"
Hearing that, Azalea lowered her head again, a feeling of despair descending upon her, and it seemed
to take her arge amount of effort before she could suppress her distress.
With an uneasy look at Olivia, she paused for a beat before saying softly, "Hayes found evidence of my
fathermitting treason and sent many of his elite troops to capture him. My father resisted in the
process, and he identally took a bullet from one of the soldiers."
Eugene found the sudden information hard to believe. "Your father is… dead?"
Azalea nodded, her tears gushing down her face. "If I hadn''t been hurt, I would''ve definitely convinced
my father not to resist. Even if he would be locked up by Hayes, at least he''ll still be alive, right? It''s all
because of my useless legs…"
Through her sobs, she began to hit her legs.
At first, Olivia was sympathizing with Azalea, but after hearing her exnation and seeing the
remorseful expression on Eugene''s face, she immediately caught on. Wasn''t Azalea putting pressure
on Eugene? He had already felt like he owed her, and now that she phrased things in this way, he
would think that Sirius'' death was connected to him.
Tch, so she''s just a little phony! She looked at Azalea and advised, "Alright, you shouldn''t me
yourself. Your father died because he was convicted ofmitting treason, not because you didn''t
rescue him in time. Even if you were able to make it there in time, you might not have been able to
persuade your father. If you could, then you would''ve persuaded him not to rebel, right? You can''t save
those who are gone, so don''t be too sad. Fortunately, Hayes is a just and upright ruler, so he won''t
me you."
