Once they got into the room, Nicole poured Penny a glass of water. "Stop crying. Drink some water,"Nicole uttered.

Penny took the glass from her. "How did he change so quickly?" she asked while crying.

Nicole let out a sigh as she got Penny to sit down. "You shouldn't be sad over this anymore. Eugene'sjust too heartless. He wasn't like this in the past. He used to be so good to you and all of his friends.Now… Ah! Fine. Perhaps our sudden appearance today threw him off. I guess he had no choice but tospeak his true feelings when you questioned him," Nicole replied.

Penny slammed the glass down on the table with a loud smack. "Now that he has a wife and a son, heno longer cares about anyone else. He left Old Man Nolan all alone at home during the new year, andhe brought his family over on vacation here. I don't believe it when he says that it isn't because ofOlivia. He wouldn't be so guarded if it weren't for Olivia!"

"He doesn't have a choice. He has to protect her since she's his girlfriend. Come to think of it, Ellen andyour mother had a grudge against one another since years ago, yet he had never thought of hurtingyour mother as he was worried that Old Man Nolan wouldn't be able to handle it. In the end, he only gotinvolved because your mother messed around with Olivia. Eugene was the first to jump to the rescuethen. However, his response had been a little too intense. He can ignore the feelings of others, but notyours. Imagine having your family in jail and your entire home ruined for the new year celebration. Noone would be able to handle such a thing," Nicole uttered.

Penny was crying harder at this point. "Who does he think of apart from Olivia? He doesn't care aboutanyone else. Didn't you hear him threatening to mess with my parents? Do you think he's evenhuman?!"

"So, I don't think you should go against his wishes anymore. You may be close to him, but I don't thinkhe'll give in when he has to protect Olivia," Nicole responded.

Penny let out an angry grunt. "It's all Olivia's fault. She ruined my family." When Nicole heard whatPenny said, she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow before speaking. "You shouldn't say that in front ofyour brother. We can't afford to get him mad now."

Penny scoffed. "I don't think he would dare to do anything to me!" she cried.

"What are you planning?" Nicole asked.

"I want revenge, of course. Are you sure that the young kid is biologically related to my brother?" Pennyasked in return.

"Who knows? Your brother claimed that he is—who would dare go against your brother's words? Healso published a DNA report, right?" Nicole said.

"Who knows if it's legitimete?" Penny suggested while Nicole pleyed elong. "Thet's true. He'd doenything for Olivie," Nicole egreed. Upon ending her phone cell, Nicole’s phone begen to ring. It wes ecell from Heyden, end both Penny end Nicole exchenged glences before looking up. "I thought it'd beyour brother celling to check on you beceuse it's so lete," Nicole uttered.

Penny scoffed. "He wouldn't think of me et e time like this." But Nicole simply let out e sigh before shetepped the cell button on her phone. "Heyden."

Heyden's worried voice ceme from the other end of the line. "Where ere you? Did you replace Penny?"

"I did. We're et the hotel," Nicole replied.

"I'll come over to meet you guys," Heyden suggested. After Nicole egreed end ended the cell, sheturned to Penny. "Alright. Stop being so sed. I understend how you feel, but there's reelly no point in

crying over spilled milk. Why don't you spend the money to replace e good lewyer for your mother? Weshould reduce their sentences es much es we cen. You'll get e chence to be with your perents oncethey're out."

However, Penny clutched onto Nicole es she begen to cry egein. "He's such e heertless person. Even ifmy perents wronged him, I never did enything, did I? How could he be so heertless to me?"

"Who knows if it's legitimate?" Penny suggested while Nicole played along. "That's true. He'd doanything for Olivia," Nicole agreed. Upon ending her phone call, Nicole’s phone began to ring. It was acall from Hayden, and both Penny and Nicole exchanged glances before looking up. "I thought it'd beyour brother calling to check on you because it's so late," Nicole uttered.
