Chapter 45 Problems Unbeknownst To Others
“That was the darkest year of my life. I followed my mom back to the Mccarthy Family, but because my health wasn’t good, I would faint from time to time. Additionally, my mom was forced out of the house by the Nolan Family, and since my uncle was afraid of offending both the Roberts and the Nolans, he refused to let us go back to the Mccarthy family. In the end, my mom had to rent a room outside. Just a few months later, she passed away in a car accident, and since then, I’ve never had a family member.”
With just a few words, Brian explained the entire experience of that particular year. Even so, Olivia could still imagine how helpless Brian must have felt during that time.
He was only twelve years old, yet he had already gone through his parent’s divorce, the betrayal of his own brother, and his mom’s death.
In just a year, he lost all of his relatives.
Oh my God! How was he able to push through everything?
It was no wonder that his face looked hostile when he saw Eugene.
Perhaps in Brian’s heart, Eugene was a heartless brother, an unfilial son, and a traitor who betrayed his family in order to pursue riches, regardless of the injustice faced by their mom.
Olivia’s eyes subconsciously became gentle as she asked, “Where are you staying right now?”
Brian gave a light smile while giving her a look that said ‘don’t look at me with that pair of sympathetic eyes’. “I’m doing fine now. Later, my grandpa found me. I also did some business and was able to take care of myself.”
For a moment, Olivia did not know what to say. “Has the situation from that year been clearly investigated?”
Brian replied, “That man is dead, so it’s impossible to find out the truth. I suppose I could not disassociate from Lara and Edward. Without the evidence, I can only make them pay using my own methods. However, the Nolan Family did well under Eugene’s management. Now, I don’t have enough strength to compete with them.”
After taking a long time to digest the entire situation, Olivia then took a deep breath before giving a word of comfort. “Have you ever thought about it? Perhaps some things are not like what you see on the surface. Have you ever sat down with your brother to have a proper chat?”
Brian then gave a cold snort. “What should I talk about with him? Talk about family? Or brotherhood? What does he have?”
Olivia opened her mouth but did not know how to persuade him. She felt that Eugene was not the kind of person that Brian thought he was.
