Chapter 1270 Are You Injured?
Olivia nodded earnestly. "We should leave at least one of us behind, or else there would be
no one to take care of our four babies."
Eugene couldn't help but laugh upon hearing her logic, yet he also felt a tinge of sadness.
"Why don't you live instead?"
She pondered for a moment and said, "Joseph is after me. Even if you die, he will still
come after me, but if I die, he won't have a reason to come after you. You can take care of
our sons and live a good life."
He was so infuriated by her words that he wanted to spank her if it weren't for the fact
that she was covered in injuries.
How could she say such a thing?
"Do you think that without you, our sons and I can live a good life?"
Olivia innocently pouted her lips and muttered after seeing Eugene's sullen expression, it
seemed that he was genuinely angry, "It's just a hypothetical situation."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Don't speculate. If you're in danger, I guarantee that I will be by your side," Eugene's
voice remained as domineering as ever.
Olivia furrowed her brows slightly as if such a situation could really happen. She was
annoyed and anxious as she retorted, "If we both die, what will happen to our sons?"
She was so angry that she even pushed him.
Eugene was both furious and amused. He reached out and rubbed her head. "If that's the
case, you'd better protect yourself and avoid getting into danger then."
Olivia fell silent at his words.
...
The following day, both Olivia's and Jewel's bruise marks became more obvious after
getting a good rest.
How could they go out looking like this?
They would surely scare Eugene's mother and the children.
The injuries on their bodies were easy to handle. They could just cover them with long
sleeves and pants, but how could they conceal the injuries on their faces?
They couldn't just stay inside forever, could they?
Wouldn't it be obvious if they both stayed in their rooms?
So, the two of them procrastinated and loitered in the room until they had no choice but to
leave.
Ellen noticed something was off right away.
It seemed like they had both worn makeup today.
So, she looked at the two of them suspiciously. "Are you two going out?"
Olivia and Jewel exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Yes. We made plans with
friends."
Ellen nodded in response but continued to stare at them with suspicion as she felt that
something was off.
Before she could ask further questions, North furrowed his little brows and inquired,
"Mommy, what happened to your face?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOlivia's expression changed, and she could clearly feel her heart sinking. Then, she
blurted in his panic, "It's nothing. I didn't sleep well last night. You guys need to behave at
home today. Jewel and I are going out for a bit."
The instant the last sentence fell from her lips, she started moving toward the door.
Ellen said, "Go after you've had your meal."
North quickly stepped in front of them and his big obsidian-like eyes were staring intently
at them. "Are... Are you injured?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the other children joined in.
Carter scrutinized them. "Mommy, Aunt Jewel, are you really hurt?"
Blake furrowed his little brows tightly as he demanded. "Who bullied you?"
Even Terry tugged at Olivia's hand. "Let me see."
Ellen was also alarmed and walked over to them while asking, "What happened?"
Olivia and Jewel exchanged a helpless glance. It seemed like they couldn't hide it
anymore.
So, she hurriedly explained, "It's nothing, we're both fine. We got into a fight with a few
hooligans during dinner last night, so we suffered some injuries. We didn't tell you
because we didn't want you to worry."
