Chapter 430
Eugene looked at Olivia and smiled. “Truthfully, my mother isn’t dead. Back then, my mother was already in the
operating room by the time I rushed over to the hospital, and Brian stood outside the operating room and blocked
me from going in. I didn’t know what condition my mother was in, so I desperately begged a doctor to bring me
inside. However, my mother was in critical condition at the time. The doctor informed me that she might end up in
a vegetative state. I didn’t dare to tell Brian about her condition. If she fell into a coma, how would these two sickly
people take care of each other? Thus, I went to my grandpa. He helped me sneak my mother out of the hospital
and sent her to a secret location to be treated. Moreover, he took control of the people who were monitoring the
situation from the shadows. When Brian learned that my mother did not survive the incident, he passed out again.
By the time he woke up again, he rushed over to the funeral home and fought with me, thinking that I buried our
mother behind his back. At this point, I admit that I was using him. But, it was for his sake. He was only safe if we

been in contact with him all these years, but I know everything that has been going on in his life.”
Olivia was shaken by what she heard. Then, she said in disbelief, “It must have been hard for you as the elder
brother. Then, where is your mother now?”
He replied, “She’s at a location I arranged for her.”
After that, Olivia frowned and considered everything he had told her again. “Even if your father doesn’t love your
mother, aren’t you and Brian his biological sons? Why doesn’t he love his own children? Besides, wasn’t he worried
that both of you would be strongly criticized by the public if he turned your mother’s incident into such a huge
scandal?”
He coldly spat out, “Didn’t I already tell you before? Brian and I were kids he never wanted! If he never had us, he
might have had a smoother divorce! How could he possibly care for a bunch of stumbling blocks that he hated in
the first place?”
Frowning deeply, she said again, “Even if he didn’t love you because he considered the two of you little more than
shackles hindering his divorce… was it worth doing all this just for Lara? Does he love her that much? Does he love
her so much that he doesn’t mind claiming that he was cheated on, setting up his ex-wife to be kicked out of the
marriage with nothing but the clothes on her back, treating his sons like they were no more than strangers, and
even causing a car accident to kill your mother after his divorce? Isn’t that overdoing it a little? Don’t you find it
strange?”
He frowned in response but didn’t bother considering it deeply. “He has always been very caring toward Lara. Even
now, he obeys everything she says. If that isn’t love, then what is it? If he didn’t cause such a huge scandal out of it,
it wouldn’t have been easy for him to get a divorce!”
On the other hand, she didn’t know how to explain her thoughts well. Thus, she mulled over it and tried to arrange
her thoughts before saying, “Logically speaking, if all Lara and your dad wanted was to force your mother to get a
divorce, then Lara already achieved her goal! So then, why did they have to kill your mother? Either you have been
considering this from the wrong direction, and they aren’t the ones behind it at all, or they actually wanted to kill
your mother to conceal something else!”

Upon hearing that, he scowled fiercely. In the beginning, he had simply assumed that they were afraid of him
exacting revenge on them, and that’s why they did their best to suppress him, use his men to kill his mother, as well
as turn the brothers against each other. Now that he heard what Olivia said, he couldn’t help thinking that what she
said made sense. “Tomorrow, I plan to bring Brian with me to visit my mother. I’ll ask her about this while I’m at it.
Why don’t you come with me?”
“N-No!” she reflexively rejected the offer. “Uh… I mean, I’ll go with you another time.”
The corners of Eugene’s mouth turned up into a teasing smile. “At first, I wanted to give you some time to mentally
prepare yourself too. But, I don’t plan to marry anybody else except you. So, you don’t need to feel so mentally
burdened. Besides, you’ve already met grandpa and Brian, so it shouldn’t be a big deal to meet your future mother-
in-law, right?”
Upon hearing those words, Olivia felt speechless. How is that the same? I met Grandpa and Brian before we
became a couple, okay?
