Chapter 873
"Hahaha, so it turns out that the son-in-law of the King of the City isn't known yet!"
"Why did they stop the broadcast? I was anticipating where they would take it to!"
Olivia's brows pinched in confusion. Was he not going to show off the dirty affairs in his family now?
How could that be? He was so active in exposing the family affairs of others, but when it was his turn, he refused to
do so! If he loved to expose dirty secrets, he should just do it once and for all! Thinking of that, she turned to leave.
Christoff frowned, his gaze following the movement of her figure. "Where are you going?"
Without turning her back, Olivia answered, "The bathroom."
Christoff didn't stop her, but he was a little depressed. Why did a swap happen all of a sudden? How great would it
have been if Eugene was there? Olivia would probably give up on him if that happened. He never expected Eugene
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto be clever enough to fall into Sirius' trap by swapping himself with another man. F*ck! How did he even think of
that?
Sirius suffered a huge humiliation, and his daughter's reputation had also been ruined. Perhaps, he might have also
offended Hayes.
He couldn't hope for Eugene either. His plan had completely backfired.
As expected, they were just a bunch of useless teammates who weren't trustable. With that, he left the hall to make
a call.
After everything was settled, he returned to the hall and noticed that Olivia had already returned. At the same time,
the live broadcast that had ended earlier was turned on again on the screen.
"Why is it back again?" Christoff asked in surprise.
Pretending to not know a thing, Olivia replied with an innocent face. "I don't know!"
Christoff threw her a skeptical glance as if asking, You sure you don't know? Why did he feel as if she had
everything under control?
Anyway, he wasn't too bothered about it as he glanced at the screen once again. Immediately, he noticed Sirius'
face going scarlet. On the other hand, Eugene was pulling a long face as he questioned, "You want me to explain
the situation? Shouldn't you be the one owing me an explanation? Why did you announce your daughter and my
engagement without my consent? Why did you give us red wine that had been drugged? Why does this room smell
of aphrodisiac?"
Facing the thread of questions thrown at him, Sirius felt embarrassed. He glanced at Hayes hesitantly before
explaining, "I can tell these two children have feelings for each other. That's why I want to grant them their wishes."
He was explaining to Hayes, but the latter didn't speak. Instead, Eugene started prodding, "But based on what you
said before I came in, I was the one who took advantage of your daughter! Then, you proceed to ask me for an
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmexplanation. This has been your plan all along, so why are you acting like you had no idea about it when you came
to catch us?"
Sirius narrowed his eyes and compromised, "Fine. Even if it was my plan all along, I intended to bring you two
together. You should know how much Azalea likes you. If it weren't for the things you did, the two of you might have
been together six years ago."
However, Eugene spat coldly, "Whether it was six years ago or six years later, I never thought about being with her.
I have a girlfriend whom I love very much. She must be dying of anxiety after losing contact with me for the past
few days. The reason why I didn't confront you isn't that you trapped me here; it's because I didn't want Princess
Azalea to be caught in this mess. I swear I have a clear conscience!"
In the hall, Olivia arched her brows, feeling pleased that he knew his place, or else, she would never let him off the
hook when they got back home.
Despite that, she was still unaware of what happened six years ago that made Eugene consider Azalea's feelings.
Could they have been in an emotional entanglement?
On the contrary, Christoff's face was gloomy. He seemed to have allowed Eugene to confess his feelings for Olivia!
