Chapter 442
Ellen was so pleased with North that she held him in his arms and reassured him. “It’s okay. He won’t dare to do
anything. I’ll hit him back for you.”
Instantly, Brian laughed. “You’re good at finding help.”
With a proud expression, North snorted in response.
Silently twitching her mouth, Olivia was a little jealous of her son’s slick social skills. Why doesn’t this little boy feel
awkward at all around them?
Embarrassingly, she explained, “North came back that day saying that he thought you were a bad guy…”
Before she could finish her explanation, North ran over and covered her mouth. His dark eyes shined like diamonds
while he signaled her to stop talking.

expensive Mommy’s consultation fee is? It cost my Great-grandpa fifty million a day. Mommy took fifteen days to
treat you. Do the math! Count by yourself how much that is! You even ate the dumplings and noodles Mommy
made. I'll tell you what. For the sake of Grandma and Daddy, I won’t charge you more. Just pay Mommy 500
million!”
Even Eugene followed suit and helped out. “How can that be enough? He needs to pay at least 300 million more!”
Not knowing whether she should laugh or cry, Olivia thought that this father and son’s minds were in sync. Weren’t
they the ones who told her not to charge consultation fees that day?
Similarly, Ellen grinned and looked toward Brian. “That’s right. Now that you’re cured, even 800 million is worth it,
let alone 500 million!”
Brian was speechless as he looked at his mother. I’m no longer the most favored one in the family!
Edward just came back home when he saw Lara’s frustrated expression. He asked, “What happened?”
Taking a long breath, Lara answered, “They lost Eugene. What’s the point of employing those useless bastards?”
“It’s okay. After all, Eugene wouldn’t dare to do anything without Brian,” Edward reassured her.
“The one who was watching them said that Brian and Eugene got into a fight last night. Olivia then came and
brought the two of them away, but no one had seen them since then. When the both of them went out for
breakfast at 6 AM, Eugene’s car vanished. Is it possible that Olivia had made the two of them reconcile with each
other?” Lara questioned.
“How is that possible? This is not a trivial matter. There’s no way she can talk them out of it that easily! Look at both
of their tempers. Either one of them will only be satisfied if the other gives in. Reconciliation is impossible!”
exclaimed Edward.
Upon hearing that, Lara nodded in agreement. Indeed, no one would simply forgive someone who had killed their

“Olivia seems to be very wicked. Look at how many times she has intervened with our plans? Besides, other than
knowing that she’s one of the Maxwells, we know nothing about her. And everything that happened abroad can't be
found! But, I don’t understand why Eugene is so fond of her. This is so unreasonable. This woman can’t stay any
longer!”
Holding Lara’s hand, Eugene comforted, “Stop thinking about that. If Eugene likes her so much, just let him be. The
old Eugene didn’t care about anyone and always looked like he would die with us anytime. Now that he has Olivia
and a son, he has a weakness. He’ll have to think about the two of them before doing anything. This may be a good
thing for us.”
Once again, Lara nodded. “You’re right. By the way, I called Penny today and it didn’t get through. This kid is really
worrying me lately. I think she blocked me!”
“There’s no way. I gave her a call on the day after she left. We talked for half an hour and I feel like she didn't take
the matter to heart. She even asked me to persuade you. Seems like you were too rash with introducing a
boyfriend to her before. Just take it easy with this!”
