Olivia's adorable expression almost made Eugene smile as the thought of her encounter embitteredhim. How could he possibly not know how scary those dogs were?

They were still barking wildly when he arrived at the manor. Had the armed police not shoot one ofthem to death as a sign of threat, he would not be able to enter the room that smoothly.

"I'll ask someone to kill them all as revenge."

"There's no need for that. The doggos are pitiful too. They were just listening to orders, so why killthem?" She stopped him.

"Okay. I'll do as you say and spare them." He played with her fringe with his fingers as she smiled.

"Was North the one informing you about it? I think you should give him a call to assure him."

"Alright," responded Eugene.

He then dialed North's number. "North, your mom is safe. Don't worry about it."

"Is she okay?" North inquired worriedly.

"Yeah, she's fine. Will you be fine home alone? Should I ask Nathan to keep you company?"

North questioned instead, "Is she hurt?"

Eugene paused in hesitation. "It's nothing serious. The doctor said she only has to stay in the hospitalfor two days."

North became anxious. "Why does she have to stay in the hospital if she's alright? I wanna seeMommy too."

He then hung up the call. Eugene looked at his phone while regretting his hasty speech.

Meanwhile, Olivia was amused. "He realized it, didn't he?"

"Yeah, he knows that you're hurt from one single statement from me. I'll call Nathan to give North aride. Cabs aren't safe." His voice was smeared with smug and a tad of helplessness.

"North will replace his way to Nathan."

Nevertheless, Eugene phoned Nathan, only to realize that Olivia had guessed it right—North alreadycalled Nathan. So, Eugene told them to be careful on their way before terminating the call.

"You can get some shut-eye if you're tired. It'll take them a while before arriving here. I'll wake you uponce they're here."

"I am sleepy, but it might be because of the drug."

Eugene hummed in response. "Sleep. I'll stay here with you."

As soon as he finished his words, his bodyguard rang his phone. "President Nolan, we've foundPenny."

"Bring her to the hospital," he instructed frostily and ended the call.

Olivia opened her eyes after merely shutting them for a few seconds. "You think that it's Penny'sdoing?"

He honestly did not believe it, but he could not disregard the truth that was laid before his eyes. "Whowill it be aside from her? She's the only one with a motive."

Ha than hung up tha call. Eugana lookad at his phona whila ragratting his hasty spaach.

Maanwhila, Olivia was amusad. "Ha raalizad it, didn't ha?"

"Yaah, ha knows that you'ra hurt from ona singla statamant from ma. I'll call Nathan to giva North arida. Cabs aran't safa." His voica was smaarad with smug and a tad of halplassnass.

"North will replace his way to Nathan."

Navarthalass, Eugana phonad Nathan, only to raaliza that Olivia had guassad it right—North alraadycallad Nathan. So, Eugana told tham to ba caraful on thair way bafora tarminating tha call.

"You can gat soma shut-aya if you'ra tirad. It'll taka tham a whila bafora arriving hara. I'll waka you uponca thay'ra hara."

"I am slaapy, but it might ba bacausa of tha drug."

Eugana hummad in rasponsa. "Slaap. I'll stay hara with you."

As soon as ha finishad his words, his bodyguard rang his phona. "Prasidant Nolan, wa'va foundPanny."

"Bring har to tha hospital," ha instructad frostily and andad tha call.

Olivia opanad har ayas aftar maraly shutting tham for a faw saconds. "You think that it's Panny'sdoing?"

Ha honastly did not baliava it, but ha could not disragard tha truth that was laid bafora his ayas. "Whowill it ba asida from har? Sha's tha only ona with a motiva."

"But I have a strange feeling about it."

He asked, "What?"

"Andy said that Penny kidnapped me to threaten you, yet he didn't show mercy during the fight. Look atthose dogs. If I wasn't quick enough, I could've been bitten to death. Is she planning on using my deadbody as a bargaining chip?"

He looked at Olivia's frowning expression. "Are you saying that Andy is framing her?"

"I'm not sure. I just feel that everything's going too smoothly."

"It's because he's afraid of death. I really wanted him dead at that time."

She shook her head. "No. Had he admitted his wrong to you, I wouldn't replace it weird. Before you came, Iasked whether he knew of me and he does! He even said how cruel you are to send your parents tocourt. He wants to have you to know how it feels like to watch the person you care for fall into ascheme where any resistance is futile. Don't you think that he's talking about Penny? Unless she reallywants me killed instead of using me as leverage. So, this man is definitely lying. It's either Penny wantsmy life or Andy is framing her."
