Chapter 635
Olivia took it suspiciously. She curiously opened the box and a graphite-colored ice jade bracelet came into view.
The body of this bracelet was smooth and round. The graphite color seemed to be smudged by ink soaked in water,
leaving splashing ink at just the right places. It seemed to be able to exude a charm that had come through the
distant and long years.
She saw at a glance that the bracelet was of great value and even her hands shook subconsciously.
"Grandpa, this is too precious. And the shares—I know this is your will, but I can make money to support myself. I
can't have these things!"
As she said that, she was about to return the brocade box.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMerlin returned it to her again and said angrily, "Just take it since I’ve given it to you. For so many years, you have
worked hard to take care of your child by yourself. I know that you are not short of cash and have the ability to
make money. I just want to make up for the two of you. Although the things I give you are a bit tacky, you have to
accept them so that I will feel better!"
Olivia didn't know what to do for a while. She turned to Eugene for help, but he also said with a smile, "Take it.
Grandma treasured this bracelet during her lifetime!"
After that, she took a step back and relented, "Then, I will accept this bracelet, and I will not want the shares."
Again, Merlin said in feigned anger, "Oh, child—it's for you, so take it. You have suffered for so many years. You
have no mother and father, and have to live precariously day after day. As a grandfather, I feel distressed when I
look at you, yet I can't help you with anything. You will be a family in the future, and if Eugene makes you angry, tell
me. I will help you to deal with him, but don't be really angry with him!"
Olivia's nose felt a little sour from the old man's words as she nodded fiercely, "Okay, I understand. Thank you,
Grandpa!"
He smiled, then looked at everyone. "Don't feel like I’m being unfair. Everyone can see how Eugene has lived in the
past few years. None of our family's children have suffered as hard as him, nor are they a more suitable president
than him. If anyone still feels uncomfortable, talk to me in private!"
Although everyone thought it was a bit unfair, when they saw that none of the other siblings of the same rank as
them received anything, they felt a lot fairer.
In addition, everyone knew well why the old man took out his shares.
It was also to save the lives of Edward and Lara. Otherwise, with Eugene's ruthlessness, it would be a real question
as to whether they could survive.
After all, he dared to do something to them even in front of so many people, so if he really wanted to kill them, he
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcould have easily just arranged an accident.
Eugene naturally knew what the old man meant. Although he deeply hated Edward, Edward didn't participate in
many things and his mother wouldn't let him make the kill.
It was just like taking advantage of the situation for his own benefit.
As for Lara, he would definitely deal with her by letting her stay in prison for the rest of her life!
He looked at Edward and said, "For Grandpa's sake, I wouldn’t continue pursuing this and I'll let the police handle
this matter. I hope you can reflect on what you have done in the middle of the night. The things that are revengeful
and ungrateful on top of the ones that are unrepentant and making you wish you could kill yourself!"
As he said that, he looked back indifferently at Curtis and commanded in a cold voice, "Prosecute Lara Roberts for
multiple murders as well as Edward cheating with her and designing to frame Ms. Ellen Mccarthy!"
Curtis responded, "Yes, sir."
Eugene added, "Take this surveillance with you!"
