Chapter 1001 Taking a Hit in Exchange for Forgiveness
Eugene hurriedly introduced them, "This is Shannon Miller, the bodyguard I assigned to protect Azalea.
This is my girlfriend."
Shannon smiled and bowed in greeting. "Hello, Mrs. Nn."
"Oh! Doe in." Olivia immediately ced a hand on Shannon''s shoulder and led her in without
paying him any attention.
Shannon stared at Olivia''s face for a moment before saying bashfully, "Mrs. Nn, you''re very pretty.
It''s no wonder they often praise you for your looks."
Olivia inquired curiously, "Oh?"
Shannon smiled. "The people at Promise Ind always had things to say about your beauty! They
often im that you''re absolutely gorgeous, Mrs. Nn. Now that I''ve met you, I can see that they were
indeed speaking the truth."
Olivia giggled in amusement. "Don''t listen to them. I haven''tbed or washed my hair recently. How
can I be pretty? You''re the pretty one here."
"No! You''re truly beautiful. I''m not just being polite! I can''t believe how pretty you are without any
makeup! I''m sure you''ll be so stunning that men would forget themselves if you dress up a little!"
Olivia had to admit that this woman was lovely. Although she felt rather embarrassed, she couldn''t help
smiling happily. Nobody disliked receivingpliments, especially when those were remarks praising
her beauty!Property ? of N?velDrama.Org.
Eugene''s mood instantly improved when he saw the smile on her face. He teasingly said, "That''s
enough. If you praise her anymore, she will be a tomato."
She immediately turned her head and shot him a yful re.
He merely chuckled lightly as he changed his shoes into indoor shoes and walked inside. However, he
had only taken several steps forward when he felt a current of air blowing past him. It was immediately
followed by a punch to his lower jaw.
It was George. Although Eugene had not only seen Georgeing at him but could also have dodged
the blow, he did not budge an inch. He had stolen the woman George had been protecting for seven to
eight years after all. More importantly, Olivia''s fury might dissipate slightly after watching him getting
beaten. It couldn''t hurt to take a hit in exchange for her forgiveness.
George had used all his strength in this blow. As a result, Eugene staggered backward slightly before
he finally regained his bnce.
Shannon was shocked by the sudden attack that she instinctively restrained George and red at him
warily. "Why are you being so violent?"
Likewise, Olivia had been frightened by the unexpected situation. She eximed in terror, "Eugene!"
She immediately ran toward Eugene but when she saw the blood at the corner of his mouth, she turned
around to re at George. Then, she demanded angrily, "George, what are you doing?"
George straightened his clothing and nced at Eugene with a soft snort. "I''ve said this before; I would
pummel the guy who bullied you back then if I ever came across him!"
North walked over with a worried look on his face and handed the handkerchief in his hand to Eugene.
Eugene took the handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Then, he turned to
George and patiently exined, "I was also a victim of various malicious schemes back then. Truthfully,
I have been looking for both mother and child throughout the years."
George snorted in derision. "Stop with your excuses. Olivia might believe you, but I don''t."
With indifference toward George''s attitude, Eugene continued his exnation, "You can ask North. He
was the one who investigated the incident back then, and that was how I managed to reunite with
them. I know you are worried. You''re worried that she might suffer various grievances if she remains by
my side, but I swear to you, I will never let the same thing happen to them again. Olivia and North have
suffered enough for seven years. It''s only thanks to your care and protection that they are here today. I
am very grateful to you. Truly, I''ve always wanted to thank you in person."
George frowned and waved his hand impatiently. "Enough! You can direct those flowery words to
somebody else! I don''t believe you! Olivia was just telling me about how well you treated her and how
disciplined you were. However, I see you online with another woman less than ten minutester! Who
was that? Your new girlfriend? If you love her and you''re willing to go to the ends of the world for her,
then what about Olivia? Where does she stand in your heart?"
After he said that, he grabbed Eugene by his cor.
Eugene remained motionless, but everybody in the room leaped into action at the same time.
Olivia grabbed George and pushed him onto the couch. "George, we can talk things out! Please don''t
resort to violence!"
George spat disdainfully, "How can you protect a worthless piece of scum like him?"
