Eugene's icy voice rang out once again. "Have you read it clearly?"
Eugene's icy voice rang out once again. "Have you read it clearly?"
The journalists replied, "Yes, we have."
But Eugene's tone was still rather heated as he barked out, "And here I thought that you two wereilliterate since you decided to sneak your way in here and cause trouble for my girlfriend!"
Both the journalists jumped in fright at his words. If Eugene held this against them, then they would bein serious trouble.
"President Nolan, we apologize most sincerely. We just wanted the public to know the truth."
Eugene was unmoved by their attempt to apologize and he rebuked, "And that's why you've come allthe way to the hospital to interrogate her?"
The two journalists quickly exchanged looks and said agreeably, "We'll leave right this instant,President Nolan!"
However, Eugene snorted and stopped them. "Leave? Did I say you could leave?"
This time, the journalists were stumped. What could he possibly mean? Was he going to detain them?
After looking at their stupefied faces, Eugene slowly said, "I'll give you a new headline to report. Comewith me."
As for Olivia, she had no idea what Eugene was up to either, but she followed along behind himregardless.
Meanwhile, the two journalists stared at each other. Neither one of them understood what justhappened, but it did not seem like Eugene was getting back at them. Rather, it seemed like he wantedto give them something newsworthy so naturally, they decided to go with him!
Late that night while everyone was fast asleep, a jaw-dropping headline blew up across all the newsportals.
'Eugene Nolan, President of Nolan Group, Admitted into Premier Hospital in Critical Condition.'
There were a few pictures attached underneath the headline. One of the pictures showed Eugenehooked up to a ventilator, and another showed North being pushed into a hospital room. The picturesalso depicted the hospital entrance being surrounded by numerous bodyguards. Olivia, Brian, andNathan were all seen at the hospital.
A brief statement of events followed the headline. However, the pictures were enough to fueleveryone's suspicions that Eugene was in critical condition, and the description beneath wassomewhat unnecessary.
In the meantime, Eugene had used a separate hospital room to take a few pictures. Once he wasdone, he wanted to discuss something with Olivia, so neither one of them went home.
Olivia read the article that the two journalists reported and asked, "Do you think Lara will believe thereports?"
"She will!" Eugene replied. "If she hadn't teamed up with Anna to create a scandal, then she would nothave believed it. But since she did, then she will definitely believe these reports."
Although Eugene sounded certain, Olivia was still a little worried. "If they really think that you'recritically ill, won't they just select a new president and oust you from the position?"
Eugene nodded and added, "Of course. Lara has secretly been building up support for herself all theseyears. We've tussled a few times before. I was conscious of Grandpa and worried that I could not getrid of her completely, so I decided to leave her be and not deal with her just yet. But since she stoopedthis low, then I have no reason to hold back any longer. If I'm in the hospital, then Grandpa will still besafe. At the very least, if they want to get their hands on Grandpa's stocks, they still need to pretend tobe filial toward him."
"Didn't your grandfather transfer ownership of his stocks to you already?"
"They don't know that," Eugene replied with a smirk. "But I'm surprised that you remembered."
Olivia laughed and joked, "At the time, I was very worried that I would be silenced."
"What do you mean by silenced?"
"I heard such an important secret, so would it be surprising if I was silenced?"
"What kind of nonsense is that? If Grandpa wanted to keep this from you, then he wouldn't have done itin front of you. Do you still remember what Grandpa said at the time?" Eugene refuted Olivia andprobed her with his own question.
Olivia responded, "Yes, your grandfather said that you need to get married and have children beforeyou could get your inheritance. Eugene, it seems like you still have your work cut out for you."
"Well, doesn't that depend on you?" Eugene hinted.
"What depends on me?"
"It depends on when you decide to get married to me." Eugene looked straight at her before slowlyadding, "I don't plan on marrying anyone else in this lifetime!"
Olivia's lips twitched. "Just for the sake of the inheritance?"
When Eugene heard her response, he stared at her with narrowed eyes. "Do you think that I'm aperson who'd do such a thing?"
