“Anna is your daughter, so you can’t ignore her, but am I not your daughter? Whenever you see her hurting me and your little grandson, don’t you feel bad? For so many years, every time there is a conflict between me and Anna, you always favor her without any hesitation-why?”
Henry was stunned for a moment and looked at Olivia blankly. His lips moved, but he hesitated to speak. “M-Maybe she’s better at coaxing people!” he replied vaguely.
Olivia smiled even deeper, but only Eugene knew that she was very disappointed because he also felt the same feeling before. She didn’t want to be seen through, so she tried her best to feign calmness and carelessness.
This was what it looked like when one was trying too hard to pretend. He reached out and wrapped his arm around her shoulder as a sign of comfort.
However, his eyes that looked at Henry were cold. “Anna is in my hands. It’s useless for you to beg her because I won’t let her go. We still have something to do, so please excuse us!”
After saying that, he stood up and guided Olivia to leave. Henry called out again in distress, “Wait, President Nolan. I have something to say!”
Eugene paused. His face was already a little impatient, but it was still Olivia’s father in the end, so he threw his response, “Say it.” Henry took a deep breath and said, “Olivia, I know Anna has done a lot of wrong things-”
How is this possible? Olivia was stunned for a while and immediately said, “You are talking nonsense. Why am I not your daughter? I grew up in that house after my mother died… No, no. You didn’t treat me well after Amy Davis and Anna joined our family. You used to love me very much. You couldn’t have made up such a lie to save Anna, right?”
Eugene was distressed as he hugged her and comforted her softly, “Calm down. Sit down first and listen to your father explain it slowly.” As he said that, he looked at Henry with cold eyes. “Mr. Maxwell, I hope you’ll tell the truth and not use any means to hurt Olivia in order to save Anna, or I promise you that I will take. revenge on Anna tenfold!”
Henry closed his eyes slightly and his voice became hoarse. He stretched out with a trembling hand and took out a small yellow cloth bag in his pocket and handed it over. “This is the necklace that was on you at that time.”
