Chapter 227 It’s Over
Henry anxiously shouted, “Hey, wait—”
But the call was hung up from the other side.
He abruptly slumped on the chair as his body had instantly lost all energy. “It’s over. It’s all over now. Eugene has taken action, as expected!” he mumbled.
He had been feeling uneasy for quite some time. During the wedding anniversary back then, he was worried that Eugene might take actions against Maxwell Company. He specially went over to visit Olivia and barely managed to get through that point.
But now, these two women went to target Olivia. Are they not ever going to be satisfied unless they destroy our family?!

Amy couldn’t hear the telephone conversation, but when she saw Henry in a soulless state, she knew that something bad must have happened.
“What’s wrong?”
He abruptly looked at her with a pair of eyes that were filled with viciousness. “Are you now asking me what’s wrong? It’s all because of the two of you! Eugene has started to take action against our company. You guys should just wait to be thrown out on the streets!”
Startled, she roared, “How could he do that to us? He beat her up to this state, but he is still unwilling to let us go?”
He was beyond furious. “Shut up! Why did I marry a woman like you?!” With that, he turned around and left.
“Where are you going? What are we supposed to do now?” Amy yelled from the room, but Henry had already left the room.
He first went to the company. Just like what his assistant had explained, the company, which initially had only a few dozen employees, seemed to have gone bankrupt overnight, and the few workers that stayed behind were interns.
The interns were surprisingly rather dedicated to their job. Upon seeing him, they voluntarily greeted him, “Good day, President Maxwell!”
He mumbled a reply before returning to his office and instructed someone to hand him the cancelled orders. He took a look at them and found that the cancelled agreements consisted of not only those unsigned agreements; even the companies that had signed the agreements were willing to cancel their orders and pay the damages for breach of contract.
For an inexplicable reason, he had a feeling of bitterness, and it made his heart feel heavy. It’s my own fault that things ended up this way. Seven years ago, I was an unworthy father to my elder daughter; seven years later, I didn’t do any good as well. Regarding the incident where my younger daughter bullied her, I just gave a gentle scolding to the former. I have finally gotten what I deserve today. Eugene is really planning to take me down this time!

On the other hand, Olivia didn’t go to the studio today, but she didn’t sleep as well. The man’s words kept echoing in her mind. I understand. I’d overestimated myself!
And his pair of eyes, which revealed his pain, haunted her.

As a matter of fact, she was actually the type of person who was slow to warm up to people. There were only a handful of people whom she had actually accepted as real friends and were able to get close to her. However, he was able to dominate most of her thoughts within merely three months.
Therefore, she was a little afraid when he intended to take another step closer.
The only rash action that she had ever taken in her life was to sleep with a stranger to take revenge on Hugo, and that incident had influenced her for 7 years. Ever since then, she would think twice about anything she did.
Eugene was the only unexpected variable after all these years.
Buzz! The vibration of her phone interrupted her reverie. In a daze, she looked at the phone, which was thrown at one side, and her eyes inexplicably gleamed with hope. She got up and picked it up to take a look at it.
Upon seeing the familiar numbers, the luster in her eyes instantly disappeared, and all that was left was boundless coldness.
After some time, she slid on the screen and accepted the call. She put the phone by her ear, but she didn’t say anything.
The person on the other side tentatively called out to her, “Olivia—”
She scoffed, “What, now? Are you calling me to stand up for your daughter?”
Henry’s words momentarily choked in his throat. He immediately explained, “No. She has gotten what she deserved!”
Olivia continued to press on, “If you felt that she deserved this, why did you save her? Shouldn’t you have allowed her to feel the pain of being beaten so that she would learn her lesson?”
