Chapter 81 Handle Him as You See Fit
When the CCTV footage of over ten minutes ended, everyone looked at each other. Although the
exchange isn’t quite intelligible, judging from Luca Matthew’s expression, it’s obvious that the two
women were telling the truth. I never expected him to be such a person.
Luca’s knees grew weak. An immense wave of helplessness surged within him, and he imperceptibly
inched closer to Harriet as though grasping onto his last glimmer of hope.
Meanwhile, Harriet’s expression was utterly grim. Never have I thought that this b*stard would be such
a flirt. He’s whispering sweet nothing to me while hooking up with other women on the side. Staring at
him, she slapped him right across the face.
Her slap was much stronger than Kate’s, so much so that Luca felt half his face had gone numb even
as a buzzing started in his ears. He gazed at her imploringly. “Miss Harriet, I’m sorry. Actually, I was
only doing so to drive her away—”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore he’d even finished speaking, Harriet cut him a severe look. “Shut up!” Then, she looked at
Eugene. “I’m sorry, President Nolan. It was my brother’s fault.”
Eugene’s face started darkening even as he stared at her with a frosty look in his eyes. “Who exactly is
your brother? Is he the president that he can have any woman sleep with him?”
Embarrassed by his remark, Harriet inhaled deeply before saying, “He’s an artist with Metrostar
Entertainment. I invested in his recently premiered movie and felt an affinity with him, so I took him on
as a brother. I never thought he’d be so insensible. Since he’s at fault in this incident, I’ll hand him over
to you, President Nolan. Just do with him as you see fit.”
Eugene gave a nod of satisfaction. “I’ll spare your life for President Grant’s sake.”
Upon hearing that, Luca panicked and hastily tugged at Harriet. “Miss Harriet, please save me. Miss
Harriet—”
Harriet shook off his hand hard. “Think of a way to save yourself, for I can’t save you,” she remarked
indifferently. If it weren’t for Eugene Nolan’s remark earlier, I would’ve gotten even with that woman as
well. Not only does this idiot want to die, but he even wants to drag me down with him!
Luca frantically pleaded, “I’m sorry, President Nolan, I didn’t know that they’re your friends. Please
spare me this once.”
“You were incredibly conceited earlier. If I weren’t here, would you have spared them this once?”
Eugene commented placidly.
Luca kept bowing and apologizing. “I’m sorry, President Nolan. I know I was wrong. I’m from Metrostar
Entertainment, and President Cohen is probably acquainted with you. President Nolan, please spare
me for President Cohen’s sake.”
Olivia who’d been sitting quietly beside Eugene suddenly interjected, “Go ahead and call President
Cohen to see whether he’ll intercede on your behalf.” Upon hearing this, Luca froze. Lifting his eyes, he
stared at them blankly, uncertain whether she was being serious. “Go on!” Olivia snapped.
Terror-struck, Luca trembled and took out his cell phone to make the call. The call was swiftly
connected, upon which Luca hurriedly said, “Mr. Cohen, this is Luca Matthews here. I accidentally

prosper the company in the future. I beg you, Mr. Cohen.”
A man’s voice drifted out of the phone. “Hand the phone over to President Nolan.” Luca was startled for
a moment, having not expected that things would go so smoothly.
Not daring to give Eugene the phone, he merely placed the cell phone on the coffee table in front of
Eugene and put the call on loudspeaker. “President Nolan?”
“President Cohen,” Eugene greeted reluctantly. In actual fact, they weren’t all that close, nor did they
usually interact. He merely knew of the existence of such a company and such a person.
“Nice to meet you, President Nolan. I’ve heard about Luca’s incident, so I hereby apologize to you first.
It’s my company’s mismanagement that has caused you trouble and hurt your friends. I’m not trying to
ask you to spare him, but I just want to express my stance on this matter. From this moment onward,
Luca Matthews is no longer Metrostar Entertainment’s artist, so just handle him as you see fit,
President Nolan!”
