Chapter 1410 Equal Rights
Eugene wasn't even interested in batting an eye on Beatrix. Instead, he turned his
attention to his wife and asked, "You said you were tired just now. So, why don't I carry you
upstairs for some rest?"
"Alright." Olivia replied with an affirmative hum. Due to her calm and submissive reaction,
she appeared to be sympathetic. At the same time, her innocent eyes and pitiful look only
served to make her the woman that any man would want to protect upon laying eyes on
her.
Eugene smiled in amusement, knowing Olivia was just putting on a show. Oh, come on.
How can I not know my beloved wife? Due to his love for her, he would embrace
everything about her, good or bad, including her bad temper and jealousy. However, it
was precisely Olivia's submissiveness that melted his heart and made him crave her even
more. Thus, he bent over and carried her in his arms, ready to head upstairs.
"Stop right there!" Beatrix furrowed her eyebrows, but Eugene ignored her and continued
to step forward. No one has ever given me the cold shoulder again and again! Humiliated,
she gestured to the guards behind her, whereupon they quickly overtook Eugene and

At that moment, Shannon and Everett quietly stepped in and stood in front of Eugene,
staring down the guards who were blocking their way. Then, Eugene's eyes were filled with
rage as his face slowly darkened. "What's the meaning of this, Your Highness?"
"I was talking to you! Didn't you hear me?" Beatrix knitted her eyebrows and walked
toward the couch where she sat. She then gave them all a disdainful look as if they were
all her despicable slaves.
Olivia soon patted Eugene's shoulder as a signal to tell him to put her down, but the man
somehow refused to listen. However, when Olivia insisted, he reluctantly put her down and
glared at Beatrix with a glacial gaze. "I heard you, but I just didn't think we're so close to
you that you'd want to especially greet us."
"Are you kidding me? Did you really think I was greeting you?" Beatrix was piqued by
Eugene's words.
"Please forgive us, Your Highness. We were by no means being rude, but that's just the
way we talk to each other as ordinary civilians. What my husband was trying to say was
that you're the princess, which was why he didn't think you came all the way here to talk
to a nobody like us." Olivia smiled, trying to defuse the situation.
"Seriously? How shameless of you to call yourself a guest here!" Beatrix grunted with a
sneer.
Olivia tilted her head, pondering on Beatrix's words. Yeah, I'm a guest, aren't I? Having her
eyes fixed upon Beatrix, Olivia was suddenly overwhelmed by a feeling of helplessness
when she failed to talk some sense into the former's head. "Fine, I'd like to excuse myself
for some rest if there isn't anything else important, Your Highness."
"Stop right there!" Beatrix grew more annoyed when she saw Olivia walking away. As
Eurosia's princess, she was used to being greeted and bowed to by anyone who saw her.
Thus, she couldn't fathom why Eugene and Olivia were both so daring to ignore her.
"You didn't come here to see us, but you also won't let us leave. What is that you want
from us, Your Highness?" Olivia's face was written with a worried expression.
"Aren't you the doctor who's supposed to treat General Bleu? Show me what you've got as
a doctor. I'd like to see what you can do! If you don't have what it takes, you'd better leave
before you make a fool out of yourself!" Beatrix grunted arrogantly while challenging
Olivia.

only because of the princess' arrogance that she disliked her but also because of her
ignorance and stubbornness. "I'm sorry, Your Highness. I've been engaged only to treat
General Bleu, which means I'm only responsible for her."
"What do you mean?" Beatrix furrowed her eyebrows, puzzled and confused.
"Well, I don't have any other plans to treat any other patient besides General Bleu at the
moment. So, if you're unwell, I'd advise you to see another doctor." Olivia patiently
explained to the princess.
"Is that a rejection? How dare you!" Beatrix couldn’t believe her ears as soon as she
understood what Olivia meant. Having intimidated and chased away so many doctors, she
had never come across anyone who dared to defy or reject her.
"In our country, we are all treated equally. As much as you're entitled to your own rights to
make a request, I'm also entitled to mine to reject one. No one should be coerced into
doing anything they won't want to because everyone gets to choose what they want."
Olivia smiled in response.
"Then, why won't you want to treat me in this case?"
