Chapter 84
Eugene’s POV
Looking at Sheila, who was standing in front of me with her head down and her face full of fear, I rubbed my temples.
“Since you don’t take my words seriously now, it’s meaningless for me to keep you by my side. I don’t need a disobedient secretary. I will transfer your salary to your card. You can go upstairs to pack your things and leave here now.” I said in a hoarse voice after a long silence.
“Mr. Eugene…”
” I don’t need you here.” I looked at her and said firmly.
“Please don’t drive me away. If I leave, who will take care of you? Okay, it’s my fault this time. I promise it won’t happen again. Can you forgive me this time?” Her voice was choked with sobs.
“Remember what you said. If you do these little things again without my permission, you will disappear automatically.” After all, she has been working for me for many years. I don’t want to fire her unless I have to.
Besides, I know she did all these for my happiness.
Although the method is not feasible, the motivation is not bad, so I can’t really drive her away.
After she apologized, I chose to forgive her.
“I see. Mr. Eugene, I won’t make decisions by myself anymore. I won’t tell anyone about you without your permission.” She raised her hand and swore.
I waved my hand and rubbed my temples with a headache. “Let’s not talk about the future. The most important thing now is to find a way to solve the current problem.”
“What’s going on now?” She looked at me in confusion.
“You just messed it up. Leanna will call Edmund as soon as she knows that I’m still alive. I’m afraid that Edmund has already sent someone to investigate my whereabouts.” I analyzed.
“Then what should we do? If Edmund finds you, will you go back to the King family?””I can’t go back.” I shook my head. “He may not want me to go back.”
“So you mean we can leave before Edmund finds us?” She asked tentatively.
“There’s no need. He doesn’t want me to go back, so I don’t have to hide from him. It’s better for me to contact him voluntarily than wait for him to send someone to find me. We have to see each other in the end. Please help me contact him and ask him to come here.” After thinking for a while, I made a decision.
“Are you going to meet Edmund?” she asked in surprise
“I’m a little worried if I don’t tell him in person.” I sighed, “and there are some things that may be told to him. With his cooperation, there will be a turning point.”
“Okay, I’ll send him a message now.”
“Tell him to come to see me alone!” I warn you.
Edmund’s POV
When I received the message, I arranged everything and arrived at London on the second day. I didn’t expect that Eugene had been here for 4 years.
By the sea, he and I sit side by side towards the sea, and a table in the middle separated us.
There was only a table in the middle of the room, but it made people feel as if there was a few light years between them.
The sea breeze blew up the waves, one after another, accompanied by a huge sound, reaching people’s ears.
The waiter brought the beer and put it on the table. I picked it up and took a sip. I looked at the sea horizon in the distance. The sunset was about to fall, and the sky was dyed red.
On the beach, there were many hot blonde beauties in colorful sexy bikini, lying on the beach and enjoying the [the setting sun.
“Do you like the beer here?” After a long silence, Eugene suddenly spoke and turned to look at me.
“You invited me here not only because you want to buy me beer, right?” I looked back into his eyes and asked.
He smiled, “you are really the same as before, without any change.”
“You too.” I’ll pay you back.
“How long has it been since we last drank together?”
“I remember that you can’t drink.”
“Yes, last time we drank with you, when we were five years old, we stole grandpa’s whiskey. He found us and taught us a lesson.” Thinking of the funny things happened in his childhood, he couldn’t help smiling more happily.
“How could you still remember what happened in the past?”
“I only remember one thing. I don’t remember what happened after that.” When he said this, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
That’s right. After that, my brother had a relapse one after another, first me, and then Eugene.
But at that time, there was only one heart that could save my life. Originally, he was in the front row, but because of old master’s words, he forced me to carry out a heart transplant operation first.
From then on, he began to hate the King family, grandfather and me who used to be close to him.
He didn’t understand why we are all the grandsons of the King family, but he has to sacrifice his life.
It was also because of this that our relationship gradually distanced itself from each other. Later, the two of us didn’t have much interaction, and naturally, we didn’t have much memory.
“I heard from your secretary that you have recovered. In that case, go home with me.” I don’t want to talk about what happened in the past. At that time, I was still young, just like Eugene, who knew nothing and could only be at the mercy of the adults.
Later, I got to know that my life was supposed to belong to Eugene. But as time went by, and Eugene was indifferent to me, I had nothing to say, so I didn’t mention it.
“Go home? Are you sure you want to take me home?” When he heard these two words, his expression was somewhat ironic. His bright eyes shone with a faint red light.
“Yes, I’m sure.” I said seriously.
The smile on his face widened. “Do you know the consequences of taking me home?”
“I know.” How could I not know?
“Once I come back alive, as the nominal wife, do you think you can continue to be together with Leanna? And the child’s nominal father is me. Edmund, are you sure you have the courage to face the public’s gaze? Can you solve the doubts of the King family?”
“I will take care of all these things. You don’t have to worry about it.” My voice was firm. “If it’s something I have to bear with Leanna, I will face it.”
“Don’t be silly.” However, he shook his head. “Do you think your mother will agree to your marriage? Do you think Leanna can enter the mansion?”
“She doesn’t need to go in. I will live outside with her.”
“Edmund, are you too naive or too optimistic? Don’t you know your mother? If she knows the relationship between you and Leanna, do you think she will let Leanna live well and ruin your reputation?” He warned.
“What do you mean?”
“You probably don’t know your father’s death, do you?” He said.
My father’s death is like a thorn in my heart, and no one dares to easily touch it.
“You may not believe it. If I hadn’t heard the driver’s words, I wouldn’t have believed that there would be such a cruel woman in the world.” After a pause, he continued, “your mother knew that your father eloped with that woman.”
“What do you mean?” I frowned.
“To be exact, your father’s elope with that woman was caused by your mother. Back then, when your mother found out that your father had an affair with another woman, she had also thought of a way to stop them from continuing to be together. However, perhaps your father really loved that woman, so not only was he not torn apart, but the relationship between the two was getting deeper and deeper. Your father was planning to divorce, but for the sake of you He didn’t want to be too ruthless, so he just mentioned and didn’t insist on divorcing her immediately. Later, your mother was probably heartbroken and knew that it was impossible to change, so she wrote a letter to each of them, saying that they could be together. However, she had to keep everything under your father’s name, including the position of the King family’s lady, for her. They could leave. Uncle received the letter and thought he was free, so he drove away with his beloved woman. He didn’t know that they were on a road that your mother designed for them. ”
When Eugene was describing the story, his tone was extremely calm, as if he was telling a long story.
I heard it, but my heart was surging.
I have never dreamed that my father was killed by my mother.
However, my mother always looks like an abandoned woman in front of me.
Over the years, I have suffered too much from my mother’s resentment against my father. I always feel sorry for my mother, who was betrayed by my husband. Even my grandfather often let me endure my mother. Therefore, no matter how sad I am and how I can’t understand, I still dare not disobey my mother to hurt her heart.
Now the truth was torn up and bloody appeared in front of me. It was cruel and dark, which made my heart suffer a huge impact.
“What do you think? Are you shocked? Do you still dare to let Leanna appear in front of your mother now?” He said lightly.
“Where is the culprit now?” I took a deep breath and asked.
“What? Do you want him to pay for your father’s life?” He smiled and said, “if you want to kill him, it’s as easy as killing an ant. But he’s just a man who takes money to work. Do you think you can do that? Besides, I’ve helped you teach that man a lesson. He’s living worse than death now. Or do you want to hear him personally describe how your mother entrusted him to create a car accident and kill people in the past?”
I clenched my fists and asked myself, ‘do I really want to hear the driver tell me what happened in the past?
No, I don’t want to.
Even though I’m strong minded, it’s hard for me to accept that my mother is the one who killed my father.
“I’m telling you this not to make you sad. I just hope you understand that Leanna can’t fall into your mother’s hands. So, if you really want Leanna to be happy, please let her stay away from the King family.”
“That’s impossible. She is Edmund’s wife. I won’t let her hide behind me all her life.” I promised to marry her. One day, I will let her stand by my side and let the whole world know that she is my wife.
“Maybe she doesn’t care about it anymore.” Eugene asked.
“That’s also the matter between me and her. Since you are alive, go back to the King family with me to see your parents.”
“Go home?” A bitter smile appeared on his face. “Do you think I can go back?”NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
“Why can’t you go back? Your parents have been sad for your death for a long time. If you appear in front of them now, they will be very happy.”
“Yes, they were very happy. And then? About my death at that time, about Leanna, and about the baby, how should I explain it to them? Haven’t you been curious about why I married Leanna?”
“In order to take revenge on me for robbing your heart back then.” I looked at him firmly.
Hearing this, he nodded at first, and then shook his head. “Not only that, you probably won’t believe it if you tell me. All this is arranged by our dearest grandfather.”
“What do you mean?”
Today, I learned a lot from Eugene.
At first, I changed my opinion of my mother. But now, even my closest grandfather has something to hide from me?
“Grandpa has already known about your relationship with Leanna. You are the most proud heir in his heart, and he has been monitoring your every move. From the day you took Leanna back to City Y, he has known everything about you, including Leanna’s pregnancy. With the background of Leanna’s family, of course she can’t be accepted by grandpa. In Grandpa’s heart, he just wants to give you the best, power and gold Money, woman, everything related to you must be the best, and most suitable for the identity of heir of the King group. ” He sighed, “He knows you’re stubborn. If he forces you to break up with him, you won’t succeed. At this time, he came up with a very good idea to separate you. And even if the misunderstanding is cleared up in the future, you will never be together.”
When I heard this, I was so shocked that even my self-control, which I had always been proud of, couldn’t hold on any longer.
“You mean it’s grandpa who asked you to marry Leanna?” My voice was trembling.
What was the feeling of being betrayed by the person, relied on and closest to?
It’s my first time to taste it.
“Yes, sir!” He nodded.
