Chapter 678
“Why?” Penny glared at Olivia angrily. “It’s all because of her. If she didn’t show up, we would have still been the way we were in the past. Even though my mother always scolds me, and even though my father doesn’t have much of an opinion, they’re still doing fine. Now that they’re both in the detention center, my whole family is gone! It’s all her fault! All because of her…” She pointed at Olivia.
Olivia was speechless. She felt like she was attacked even though she didn’t do anything. Eugene knitted his brows together as he refuted Penny’s words. “As I said, this has got nothing to do with anyone else. Even if Olivia wasn’t here, I still wouldn’t be able to remain like a family with your mother. I’ll never forget what your mother tried to do to mine.”
“Why did you only start targeting my mother now? It’s all because of her.” Penny was still pointing at Olivia.
Eugene’s eyes were filled with a deadly hatred for the other woman. “Do you think I didn’t want to do it earlier? I was afraid that Grandpa wouldn’t be able to accept it if I, his grandson, killed his son. You should be glad that your mother’s still in the detention center. That only happened because Grandpa begged us to show some mercy to your parents. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be there at all.”
Upon hearing his words, Penny was too shocked to even cry. Her tears stayed at the corners of her eyes as she spoke. “What do you mean?” But Eugene couldn’t be bothered to explain things to her. “I can’t talk to you when you’re being so emotional. You shouldn’t blame others for any of this. Your mom deserves what she got! If you feel like there’s anything wrong, you can hire a lawyer to defend your mom. Now, I want you to get lost!” he growled.
Penny took one look at Eugene’s determined gaze before she turned and ran off. Nicole glanced at Eugene before she, too, chased after Penny. Alex, on the other hand, parted his lips to apologize. “I’m sorry, Eugene. It’s all my fault. I didn’t know about this whole situation, and I… I thought it’d just be the few of you on the island.”
Eugene leaned against his chair lazily. He didn’t feel like talking for a while. Even though he knew that Alex hadn’t done it intentionally, he’d be lying if he said that he wasn’t angry. At the start, Eugene only got Alex to come over because he wanted to help with Alex’s love life. However, Eugene hadn’t expected Alex to bring Hayden, Nicole, and even Penny along with him! The more people there were, the more Eugene’s mother would be harassed by these individuals’ words.
