"Why do you keep standing up for such a woman? For her sake, you didn't even hesitate to set Momup to have an affair and forced her to leave the Nolan Family! You even found someone to kill her, butyou were still unwilling to give up. You ask someone to pick on Brian, wishing that you never had thisson. If it wasn't for Grandpa's protection, I probably wouldn't have made it until today. I really don'tunderstand. Is your heart made of stone? Who else do you have in your heart besides this woman?"

The moment Eugene said those words, the conference room fell into an odd silence where no onespoke for a long time. Everyone looked at each other and exchanged hinting gazes with their eyes.What's the situation? Eugene has actually spilled out all the scandals from that year?

Meanwhile, Edward was simply angered to the point that he did not know how to refute. He slammedhis hand on the table. "Eugene! Don't you dare say whatever you want just because you're thepresident! You say I did all those villainy acts, right? Then, tell me: when did I kill your mom and wasstill unwilling to give up? You say I wish I never had a son like Brian, but when did I pick on him? Andyou, if I really want to act against you, do you think you can still make it alive to this day, consideringthat you were a teenager back then? Do you think I can still let you point fingers at me?"

Hearing that, Eugene retorted, "If it's not you, ask your wife then!"

Edward frowned fiercely and he glanced at Lara in a daze. Then, he immediately said, "I know youhave issues with Lara, but don't blame her for everything. Even if she doesn't like you, she won't arguewith you out of her respect for me. Stop making slanderous charges against her!"

However, Eugene snorted, "How much is your dignity worth?"

Feeling the panic in her rising, Lara pulled Edward and advised sensibly, "Hubby, forget it! Don't getinto an argument with Eugene for my sake. Since Eugene is fine now, the company can also get back

on the right track. Let's just leave!"

Edward still wanted to say something, but only gave Eugene a stern look when he received Lara'shinting gaze. Then, they rose to their feet and planned to leave.

Eugene sneered when he saw them leaving. Then, he threw the pen in his hand on the table with asnap.

How loud would the sound of a pen dropping on a table be? Yet, it managed to cause everyone'shearts to tighten. North also stopped spinning the pen in his hand as he had already mastered the penspinning skill a little bit under Merlin's patient guidance.

Seeing Eugene throwing the pen, North instinctively glanced at his face. Daddy's expression isconsiderably quite relaxed.

Then, North secretly winked at Olivia again, to which she smiled.

Everyone had a tacit understanding. This is a whole set of traps for Lara? How can he let them leavejust like this?

Even so, the shareholders in the conference were clueless about it since they still thought that Edwardand Lara had really left.

One after another, everyone stared at the two. However, they saw that the people standing outsidewere all bodyguards when Edward and Lara opened the door of the conference room. It was like alayer of dense mass.

At the same time, everyone's facial expression was like they had already expected this situation. Toldyou so! How can Eugene possibly let them leave so easily?

An enraged Edward yelled, "Eugene! What's the meaning of this? I didn't even mess with you, butyou're so enthusiastic about it!"

Sitting on the swivel chair, Eugene turned around. The curvature of his lips when he looked at Edwardand Lara was a total mockery. "Remember what I said to you in the office?"

Edward frowned upon hearing that. He was unable to recall which sentence Eugene was referring tofor a while.

However, Eugene did not really let him think hard about it. Looking at Edward, he curled the corner ofhis lips into a faint smile. "I said I hope you won't have a day that you come to regret. Otherwise, I willlet you be so overwhelmed with grief that you hardly wished to live. Initially, since it's almost New Year,I was thinking of letting you have a joyful New Year, but your wife was discounted with her lot. So, Ihave no choice but to act beforehand!"
