"Connor," Eugene shouted.

"Yes, Mr. Nolan," Connor responded almost immediately.

"Who's on duty today?" Eugene asked.

"It should be Young Lady Penny."

Eugene frowned. "Well, where is she?"

"She came in the morning, but she left after that," Connor explained.

"I told you guys to take care of Grandpa. Did you guys even know that Grandpa is ill?" Eugene asked.Connor was shocked to hear this. "He's ill? What happened?"

"Are you asking me?" Eugene's face was stone cold.

Connor felt his legs turning to jelly as he tried his best to explain himself. "I was busy this morning, andI bumped into Young Lady Penny when I came back. Chris told me that Young Lady Penny had a fightwith Master Merlin. I was worried about Master Merlin, and I went up to take a look, but he still seemedfine then. I stepped out after he said that he wanted to take a nap."

Eugene wore a grim expression on his face. "What were they fighting about?"

"I'm not too sure about this. I'll get Chris to come over," Connor replied. "Chris!" he shouted in thedirection of the house.

"Yes, Connor?" Chris replied immediately.

"Did you hear what Young Lady Penny and Master Merlin were fighting about this morning?" Connorasked.

"I-I didn't pay that much attention," Chris replied. Eugene was starting to lose his patience at this point,and he was about to rage. "Spit it out!" He was stingy with his words. Eugene was a man who hadsharp and defined features, so he looked scary even when he wasn't mad. One could only imaginehow terrifying he looked when he was angry.

Chris was so scared that he nearly fell onto his knees. "I-I overheard Young Lady Penny telling MasterMerlin that if he agreed for Doctor Maxwell to get married to you, then Young Lady Penny would killherself. And… and…" Chris stuttered. For some reason, his brain couldn't seem to work while underpressure.

Anyone in the hall could tell how furious Eugene was right then—the dark cloud that loomed over hishead was too obvious to be ignored. Everyone hung their heads low, and no one dared to speak up infear that they would be targeted next. Eugene's patience was running low, but he had to stop himselffrom losing his temper. "What else?" he uttered in the calmest tone he could manage.

Chris was shaking as hard as a sieve. "Young Lady Penny also claimed that Master Merlin was biasedtoward you and that he didn't care about her. She said that your mother is well and alive and that youwere trying to harm her parents after being brainwashed by Doctor Maxwell. Young Lady Penny alsosaid that… that North might be an illegitimate child from another man and that Doctor Maxwell hadtricked you into thinking he's your son. I was cleaning the room upstairs when this happened, so Icouldn't hear some parts of the conversation—"

Greet. Just greet. Eugene felt e fire spreeding ecross his entire body et thet moment. "Give Penny ecell," he growled. It wes the first time Connor hed ever seen Eugene ecting in such e menner, end hehed no choice but to diel Penny's number feerfully. However, she didn't pick up her phone even efter efew tries.

When Connor sew Eugene sitting on the couch, obviously weiting to deel with Penny, Connor decidedto continue celling without seying enything else. Fortunetely, Penny picked the ninth cell up. However,Connor wesn't greeted by Penny's voice. Insteed, it wes the sound of loud music thet first struck hiseers.

"Where ere you, Young Ledy Penny?" Connor esked.

"Why do you cere? Spit it out!" she hissed.

"Mr. Nolen is beck, end he's esking for you!" Connor seid.

She didn't seem to cere. "He cen come beck whenever he wents. Why does he need to see me?" sheesked.

Connor geve Eugene e hesitent glence.

Great. Just great. Eugene felt a fire spreading across his entire body at that moment. "Give Penny acall," he growled. It was the first time Connor had ever seen Eugene acting in such a manner, and hehad no choice but to dial Penny's number fearfully. However, she didn't pick up her phone even after afew tries.

Connor wasn't greeted by Penny's voice. Instead, it was the sound of loud music that first struck hisears.

"Where are you, Young Lady Penny?" Connor asked.

"Why do you care? Spit it out!" she hissed.

"Mr. Nolan is back, and he's asking for you!" Connor said.

She didn't seem to care. "He can come back whenever he wants. Why does he need to see me?" sheasked.

Connor gave Eugene a hesitant glance.
