“Why do you keep standing up for such a woman? For her sake, you didn’t even hesitate to set Mom up to have an affair and forced her to leave the Nolan Family! You even found someone to kill her, but you were still unwilling to give up. You ask someone to pick on Brian, wishing that you never had this son. If it wasn’t for Grandpa’s protection, I probably wouldn’t have made it until today. I really don’t understand. Is your heart made of stone? Who else do you have in your heart besides this woman?”
The moment Eugene said those words, the conference room fell into an odd silence where no one spoke for a long time. Everyone looked at each other and exchanged hinting gazes with their eyes. What’s the situation? Eugene has actually spilled out all the scandals from that year?
Meanwhile, Edward was simply angered to the point that he did not know how to refute. He slammed his hand on the table. “Eugene! Don’t you dare say whatever you want just because you’re the president! You say I did all those villainy acts, right? Then, tell me: when did I kill your mom and was still unwilling to give up? You say I wish I never had a son like Brian, but when did I pick on him? And you, if I really want to act against you, do you think you can still make it alive to this day, considering that you were a teenager back then? Do you think I can still let you point fingers at me?”
Hearing that, Eugene retorted, “If it’s not you, ask your wife then!”
Edward frowned fiercely and he glanced at Lara in a daze. Then, he immediately said, “I know you have issues with Lara, but don’t blame her for everything. Even if she doesn’t like you, she won’t argue with you out of her respect for me. Stop making slanderous charges against her!” However, Eugene snorted, “How much is your dignity worth?”
Feeling the panic in her rising, Lara pulled Edward and advised sensibly, “Hubby, forget it! Don’t get into an argument with Eugene for my sake. Since Eugene is fine now, the company can also get back on the right track. Let’s just leave!”
Edward still wanted to say something, but only gave Eugene a stern look when he received Lara’s hinting gaze. Then, they rose to their feet and planned to leave. Eugene sneered when he saw them leaving. Then, he threw the pen in his hand on the table with a snap.
