"Look at this! Eugene even took her into his arms and escorted her into the car. Everyone on theInternet is mocking the president of the Nolan Group for being a dummy. He actually went after awoman who slept with a beggar and treats the beggar's son as his own child. Once this news wasrevealed, the people who bought shares in the company were worried that their interest would beaffected, so they started to let go of their shares!"

Merlin's eyes roved around and he looked at Edward as the thoughts ran wild in his head. Has Edwardfigured out something? Or is all of this actually secretly plotted by them to force Eugene to admit tosomething? If they actually force Eugene, then it's either Eugene breaks up with Olivia or he has toadmit that the child is his. However, either way would be beneficial to these people and there would beno harm to them! They're ruthless! All of these years, these two have never once shown mercy at all.Eugene can't admit to anything; otherwise, Olivia and the child will be exposed and this could bringdanger to them!

Merlin considered the situation before saying, "It seems quite a coincidence that the beggar wouldsuddenly turn up at the Nolan Group and at the shooting set. Obviously, someone must have arrangedfor all of this, so you two should hurry up and investigate who's behind all of this."

Edward exchanged looks with Lara before responding, "Dad, we don't mind investigating this matter,but Eugene needs to work with us to sort out this current situation and give the shareholders anexplanation. How about you get him to make use of the Nolan Group official website to issue astatement and deny his relationship with Olivia? Olivia merely saved your life and that's why they're justfriends."

Merlin naturally realized that if Eugene knew about this, he would not agree to that. However, right now,for the mother-son duo's safety, it seemed to be a good solution.

Otherwise, these two here would definitely pressure the shareholders and push for a change in thepresidential candidate. After all, this was what they had been attempting to achieve all this while.

Merlin hesitated for a moment before saying, "Okay. Let's issue a statement to explain everything forthe time being."

Upon hearing that, Edward responded, "Sure, Dad. We'll be on our way."

As Merlin looked at Edward's retreating back, his expression turned downcast significantly. What sort offather is he? And what kind of son, at that?

His son only had eyes for one woman. As soon as Edward walked out of the door, he turned to Lara."Perhaps he doesn't know anything."

However, Lara mentioned, "There's also the possibility that he knows the truth and he's purposelydoing this to protect the mother-son duo."

Edward wrapped his arms around Lara's shoulders. "That's fine. You should stop thinking about this.Anyway, once we issue this statement, Eugene will be cornered. If he doesn't explain himself, then hewill have to separate from Olivia. If he refuses to separate with her, he would surely have to explainhimself to the shareholders."

Meanwhile, Lara mentioned, "Judging by Eugene's personality, he would never run away from thesituation, especially if that child is actually his."

As she spoke, she paused for a moment before continuing, "If he insists on being with Olivia, then wecan get the shareholders to force him to give up the position of the company's president and re-elect anew president. By then, you would be the best candidate. Of course, we would have to convince Merlinto support you. Furthermore, after adding on the shares both of my elder brothers hold in the company,

it would be sufficient to gain a majority. By then, you'll be the rightful president of the Nolan Group. Iwould have then fulfilled my promise to you."

Eugene smiled. "Actually, I don't have a strong urge to be the president, but if that will make you happy,I'll go after it. By then, the two of us will be in a position of dominance."

Lara beamed widely. "Yes. Then we won't have to worry about your son attacking us randomly."

Meanwhile, Eugene had nothing else to say about that.

…

As for Eugene, he brought Olivia back to the Muse Peninsula immediately. However, Olivia remainedsilent the entire journey.
