Chapter 140

Kate mumbled while Olivia remained silent. Something he has to deal with personally? Has he foundthe culprit?

...

A man and a woman were found dead on a bed in the room of an apartment. The man was Luca,whom Eugene had been looking for, and the woman was a hostess from a bar.

Because of the ruckus, many people gathered at the door while the police were investigating the case.

Standing in the room, Eugene was expressionless. They had come too late as this was obviously amurder. Who is behind the plan against Olivia? How could the person even know that there weregrudges between Luca and her?

A policeman walked over and reported politely, “President Nolan, we’ve found many syringe needles onthe bed. There are also traces of some white powder, hence we suspect that their death was caused byan overdose of stimulants.”

With a cold expression, Eugene mumbled impassively. Although he was incensed, he couldn’t vent hisanger on anyone since Luca was already dead.

The clue seemed to stop there. However, Eugene was certain that Luca had a higher-up, and thatperson wanted Olivia dead.

Who is it?

Clenching his fists subconsciously, Eugene walked out of the room and ordered Curtis, “Investigate thepeople who had contacted Luca for the past few days and examine the surveillance footage around his

house!”

Gazing at his superior’s expression, Curtis asked carefully, “I-Isn’t he already dead? President Nolan,do you suspect that there’s a mastermind behind this?”

Eugene shot him a look and questioned, “Why do you think he’s dead all of a sudden?”

Curtis hurriedly followed him and inquired, “Isn’t he dead because of an overdose of stimulants.Moreover, he was a womanizer and interested in exciting sex, therefore I think it’s reasonable that hedied in such a way.”

Eugene kept walking and snorted, “Why was he dead right after you found his home address? Do youthink this is a coincidence?”

Baffled, his assistant was rendered speechless. Since Olivia was fine, even if Eugene valued her, hewould just teach the culprit a lesson by breaking their arm or leg. There was no way he would kill thatperson.

What Curtis didn’t know was that Eugene didn’t just value Olivia, but she was also the woman he hadowed and been searching for the past seven years as well as the mother of his son. At that moment, hewished that he could resurrect Luca and kill him again, as he was infuriated that the latter was killed bysomeone else.

After getting into the car, Curtis inquired, “How long back do we have to trace the surveillancefootage?”

Eugene pinched his glabella and answered, “Start from the fashion party hosted by Logan. I want toreplace out all the people he had met.”

Curtis’s jaw dropped. “President Nolan, the fashion party happened one month ago. It’ll take some timeto look through so much footage. I’m afraid that we won’t be able to replace out anything in a short time.”

Determined, Eugene answered, “Just investigate it. Keep it low-profile so that the culprit won’t bealarmed.”

Curtis nodded in agreement and pressed his lips together. President Nolan is so good to Miss Maxwell!

...

Seated on the bed inside the hospital, Olivia had recovered slightly and didn’t feel as dizzy as before.

Nathan remarked that she was lucky, as she had only suffered from a concussion without any seriousinjuries.

In fact, Olivia was most thankful that her kid wasn’t in the car at that moment.

Just when they were having a casual chat, someone knocked on the door, whereupon Nathan shouted,“Come in!”

After that, the doorknob was turned in a slow and careful way. Doubtful, Nathan rose from the chair andtried to open the door. Just when he reached the door, it was opened.
