Chapter 786

Nicole frowned and rebuked with an aggrieved expression, "Eugene! Do you really need to behave so heartlessly?

The only thing that I did was fall for you, but is that considered a sin? Why do you have to hurt me this way?"

Hearing that, there was a disgusted look that flashed across Eugene's face out of instinct. "That's enough. Keep

your precious feelings for me all to yourself. I don't need that."

Hayden kept his eyes on Nicole and thought, So, she's finally admitted to having feelings for Eugene, huh?

Lowering his eyes, Hayden masked the misery that welled up within him. Subsequently, he graciously tried to break

the fight. "Eugene, regardless of the issue, you should speak nicely. All of us are friends here, so don't make the

situation awkward."

Hayden had just finished his words when Eugene retorted instantly, "Friends? I don't have a friend who behaves like

that! I told you from the start to stay away from her, and she's not worth your time and efforts!"

Confused, Hayden asked agitatedly, "Stop talking in riddles here. What's going on exactly?"

Eugene shot a look at Nicole, who continued to maintain her silence. "Okay. I guess you won't tell the truth until

you've been taught a lesson, will you?"

As he spoke, he instructed Kyle, "Bring Theodore over."

As soon as Nicole heard that, she swayed slightly and nearly fell to the ground. Eugene has found out about

Theodore! Then, that means I…

The blood instantly drained from her face and there was a terrified look in her eyes as she looked at him.

Meanwhile, Penny was startled by that too. Theodore? Is that Theodore, who worked as Mom's butler?

Soon, Theodore was led into the room.

It is him… Penny furrowed her brows tightly. What does this mean? Am I a suspect?

Theodore froze slightly upon seeing Nicole. As he lamented Eugene's extraordinary speed at carrying out an

investigation, he also caught on to what Eugene meant by 'I will, but not now'.

Evidently, if Theodore refused to reveal the truth, then his son might not live to see tomorrow.

Eugene glanced at Theodore and said, "Repeat what you told me the other day. Who was the one that provided you

with the map of Promise Island?"

At that point, Nicole had her eyes glued on Theodore the whole time. Despite knowing that he would bow down to

Eugene's interrogation and reveal her as the perpetrator, she could not help remaining hopeful that Theodore

would take into account the one million she had provided and not reveal her as the mastermind.

Unexpectedly, Theodore had no hesitations at all as he confessed, "It was Nicole."

Instantly, the exposed mastermind flared up and denied out of instinct, "That's nonsense! You're rambling

nonsense!" As she spoke, she rushed over to hit him. "Tell me, who instructed you to say that?" She whacked him so

hard that the wounds he sustained from before led him to wince in pain. "Ah! Miss West, I had to tell the truth. I had

no other option!"

"Stop it!" Eugene's low and cold voice rang out and there was a forceful note in his voice that clearly indicated his

insistence.

Kyle managed to pull her aside soon enough. At that moment, Nicole hurriedly explained herself to the man,

"Eugene, don't listen to his nonsensical words. I will never do that! I have no reason to target your mother!"

Eugene glanced at her and the smirk on his face deepened, but it was a cold and mocking smile that he revealed.

"Only a few of us came here before. Other than the injured ones upstairs, there are only three of you left. If it isn't

you, then tell me, who else could have revealed the location of the villa?"

In panic mode, Nicole tried to put on a calm front. She glanced at Penny and Hayden before turning around to say

to Eugene, "Penny's the prime suspect! Lara hired the assassin while Penny provided the geographical location. The

mother and daughter duo must have plotted to kill your mom. This has nothing to do with me!"

As soon as Penny heard that, she flared up and instantly rebuked loudly, "Nicole, what sort of nonsense are you on

about? I didn't do that!"

"Your mom has always been jealous that Mrs. Nolan is still alive. You harbored a grudge against Eugene because

Olivia picked on you. That's why you've got the motive. You're the one who must have revealed the layout of the

island for your mom to send an assassin and kill Mrs. Nolan!"
