Chapter 784
North was significantly speechless. Is this how a girlfriend coaxes her boyfriend? Mommy’s treating Daddy the same way that she treats me, isn’t she? A great job?
Suddenly, Eugene smiled and his gloomy mood from the morning dissipated. Instantly, his spirits were lifted and he felt cheerful. He grabbed her hand and said, “Thanks, Olivia. I feel much better now.”
She responded, “It wasn’t your fault anyway. You’ve done your best, so stop beating yourself up. Life never goes as planned.”
He replied, “Yes. Brian should be arriving tonight and there are some things that should be settled once and for all.”
She asked, “Who was the one that revealed the layout of Promise Island?”
Eugene’s expression instantly darkened as he mentioned coldly, “Nicole.”
Olivia was significantly stunned by that. “Nicole? How can it be her? Why does she have against your mom?”
There was a ferocious look on Eugene’s face. “Nicole struck a deal with Lara. She would provide the map and Lara would first go after my mom, then you.”
At that point, Olivia caught on to the situation. That makes much more sense, then.
It was nearly 6.00PM when Brian and the gang arrived at the island.
It did not take much effort to apprehend Nicole; perhaps because she was caught off guard. The other possibility was that she wanted to avoid struggling so as to not rouse more suspicions, so she came along meekly to the island.
Brian specifically assigned his bodyguards to keep a close eye on her and this move was realized by Hayden and Penny.
They sensed that the bodyguards treated them differently compared to Nicole as the bodyguards seemed to be taking precautions to prevent her from escaping.
Eugene sat on the lower floor of the villa and waited forthem. He maintained an undisturbed expression upon seeing them and did not bother to greet them either.
Hayden seemed slightly anxious, though, as he was not sure what was going on.
Along the way, he had asked Brian what was going on, but Brian’s responses had been vague. He merely mentioned that there had been an assassination
attempt on his mom’s life.
