Curtis responded again.

How arrogant! The surveillance footage too? There were still scenes of Lara being slapped in thesurveillance footage.

However, Eugene was that arrogant and he obviously didn't care at all!

Both Edward and Lara were heartbroken.

When they first arrived in the morning, they were full of enthusiasm and thought they could become thepresidents of the Nolan Group.

Unexpectedly, in just a few hours, they were reduced to being prisoners.

After they were taken away, the meeting room fell silent.

Eugene looked at everyone and ordered in slight exhaustion, "Dismissed!"

Everyone got up and left the conference room.

"Uncle Richard, can you please send Grandpa back?"

Richard responded with a hum.

Merlin reached out and patted Eugene's shoulder without saying anything. He looked at Olivia andwarned, "Olivia, stay with him here."

Olivia responded, "Okay, Grandpa, don't worry!"

Only their family of three remained in the huge conference room after everyone left.

However, Eugene had been sitting still with his head down, not saying a word. He didn't feel asrefreshed as he thought he would be after taking revenge, nor did he feel relieved.

Instead, an inexplicable sourness poured into his eyes. He pinched the area between his eyebrowswith his fingers and calmly wiped the tears that overflowed from his eyes. Even so, he tried to pretendto be okay.

However, Olivia saw it at a glance and felt a little distressed. This involved his mother and father, andno matter how decisive he was, he still couldn't bear it in the end.

Although his father had angered and disappointed him so much, he still had patience to put forward theevidence one by one to show him Lara's true character.

Then again, if one didn’t have any hope, how could one be disappointed?

She stood up and hugged Eugene. Without saying anything, she stroked his head with her fingers.

North was frustrated—did Olivia think Eugene was him? Why was this similar to the posture of herhugging him?

Eugene didn't feel anything different and he stretched out with his arms to hug her waist, sticking closerto her.

North was instantly speechless.

"Don't be sad, don't be sad. It's not worth it!" Olivia seemed to be grooming a lion. "You still have me,and North. We will be with you!"

To that, Eugene responded lightly. "I was thinking about how my mother felt when she was framed bythe two of them and couldn't testify. There was always despair. Later on, when we learned thateverything had been directed by Edward, how sad she must've been?! That's her husband, the manshe loves the most."

Olivia said, "It's all over; you have avenged her. Your father will live with guilt for the rest of his life in thefuture, which in itself isn’t a light punishment."

Eugene sneered. "What kind of punishment is this? It doesn't hurt or even itches at all. He has noheart. If he does, when faced with so much evidence, he will not still stand up for Lara Roberts."

"I think this may just be a habit. It's just like me; if someone speaks ill of me, you always support meand believe me, even if all the evidence points to me. So it’s the same for your dad. He truly likes Lara,so it's not that he doesn't believe you, but it's that he habitually protects her. Too many things havehappened today, so you have to give him some time to digest them."

When he didn't say anything, she continued, "Don't be disappointed, or think that it's not worth it foryour mother. Your mother also said that she just chose a man who doesn't love her. Now that yourfather has also seen Lara's true character, I believe he will understand!"
