Chapter 440 The Truth
Upon hearing that, Eugene and Olivia glanced at each other. This revelation is too overwhelming. What’s that supposed to mean?
Did Olivia really make the right guess? Things weren’t really that simple?
“He thought the one who saved him was Lara? Are you saying that Lara wasn’t the one that saved him?” Eugene couldn’t hold himself back from asking.
Ellen nodded with sadness visible in her eyes. She then looked at Olivia, feeling a little flustered to talk about her past in front of her daughter-in-law. “Olivia, these are all trivial issues of our family. Please don’t be scared away by them,” said Ellen vaguely.
Olivia was startled for a moment and she said, “It’s okay, Mrs. Nolan. If you find it uncomfortable for me to stay throughout the conversation, North and I can leave some space for you. We can go take a walk outside.”
As she was saying this, she got to her feet and pulled North as she tried to leave.
Ellen hurriedly took her hand. “No, no. I’m just afraid that my family issues will affect your relationship with Eugene. You can stay if you don’t mind.”
At this moment, Eugene helped Olivia back to the sofa. “Mom, you don’t have to overthink things. I’m going to spend the rest of my life with Olivia. Besides, if it weren’t for Olivia, I wouldn’t have remembered to ask you about this. I haven’t thought about this since the beginning and really thought that Edward was captivated by Lara.”
Ellen sighed again; her voice sounded helpless. “He was indeed captivated by her. Both Edward and Lara were my university classmates, and he always had a crush on Lara. During one of our class reunions, one of the rooms in the hotel was on fire. But, restaurants thirty years ago were very undeveloped and there was no CCTV.
