Chapter 1038 Olivia Arrives at Eugene’s Home
Shannon looked around before continuing, “The day before yesterday, she asked me to buy her some dumplings, but I forgot which one she preferred and returned to ask her. I had the access card and used it to enter the room. When I entered, she was on the phone with someone, and her expression was terrifyingly fierce. Completely different from how she usually looked too! I don’t even know who the real her is.”
Puzzled, Olivia confirmed with her, “The day before yesterday?”
Shannon nodded. “Yes.”
Olivia frowned. “I don’t think she has other friends besides Eugene here, and she even sent you away to make that call. Could she be calling Eugene?”
“I don’t think so. Her tone is very gentle when speaking to Mr. Nolan, and listening to it…” Shannon searched her brain to find the perfect word but couldn’t find a word fitting the description. After a long while of muttering, she finally described how she felt. “It feels like her voice is too gentle, which makes it sound fake. That day, she was clearly mad at someone, and she looked like she was about to kill someone.”
Olivia nodded. “Got it. I will mention it to Eugene when I have the time. You have to be more careful since you’re always with her.”
Shannon nodded heavily and held Olivia’s arm. “Mrs. Nolan, have I told you I like you a lot?”
Laughing, Olivia teased, “You took the words out of my mouth.”
Then, North anxiously urged, “Mommy, let’s hurry up!”
He suddenly felt speechless and realized she had changed. The woman he previously thought of as well-mannered and sensible was now…
Before he could think further, Olivia had come in through the door and immediately noticed the two figures standing close together by the door. They seemed to be hugging as though they were reluctant to part with each other. Azalea had tears in her eyes, looking quite pitiful, while Eugene’s expression was a mix of helplessness, speechlessness, and coldness.
When he saw Eugene, Shannon, and North standing by the door, he immediately pushed Azalea away.
Being the great actor she was, Azalea frantically retreated and tried to explain to Olivia, “Miss Maxwell, please don’t get us wrong. There’s nothing between us. I was about to fall, and Eugene caught me.”
Those words sounded so annoying!
Olivia hugged her arms while looking at Azalea with a mocking smile, wondering if Eugene could hear how implicative those words were.
