Chapter 458
North dragged himself to move on before he suddenly decided to turn around and run toward the little girl. After
that, he took out a yellow ladybug keychain from his pocket and gave it to her. "This is for you! I hope you'll be
happy for the rest of your life!"
She smiled as she took it from him. "Thank you so much!"
North chuckled. "You’re welcome."
Just as he was about to leave, he heard her voice. "Wait."
As she spoke, she took a hairband with two red balls off her hair and passed it to him. "I don’t have anything for
you, but please take this with you!"
North really liked that hairband. He cracked a smile and said, "Thank you! I love it!" As he finished, he cautiously put
it in his pocket and waved at her. "I'm leaving now."

earlier when we were collecting our gifts. Why did you give it away?"
Seeing the bulge in his pocket, Eugene asked, " Is that a love token?"
North placed his hand on his pocket and explained rather embarrassedly, "What are you talking about? She was
crying earlier, and that plump kid bullied her because of me!"
Olivia joked, "What a gentleman!"
Eugene put his arm around Olivia's shoulders and stated rather suddenly, "My son's better than me!"
Olivia's face lit as well. "He's my son."
…
In the evening, while Eugene was making dinner, Olivia helped carry out a physical examination on Ellen. Even
though she looked fine on the outside, Eugene insisted that Olivia carry out an examination.
Olivia knew that this was Eugene's attempt in trying to justify himself. The real reason he wanted her to be here
was for her to treat Ellen, and after ten minutes of examination, Olivia concluded that she was perfectly fine.
"Mrs. Nolan, you are perfectly fine, and maybe it has something to do with you living on this island for such a long
time. This island seems perfect for recuperation."
Ellen giggled and responded, "Uh-huh. That's what the old man said too."
Olivia asked while she put her tools away, "You mean the doctor who treated your leg?"
Ellen replied, "Yes. He's really good, just that he's somewhat eccentric and unsociable, and of course, he doesn't like
us snooping around for news about him. Otherwise, Eugene was still hoping that he could treat Brian back in the
days. The old man told me that it was because of the help that Eugene rendered him that he was willing to treat my
leg."
Upon hearing this, Olivia sniggered. The more skillful a person was, the more particular they became—just like
Olivia's master.
"How did Eugene help him?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEllen shook her head. "No idea. It was something Eugene negotiated with him in private. He didn't even ask for
payment!"
Olivia nodded, not giving too much thought to it given how wealthy Eugene already was a few years back. Naturally,
he was able to help a lot of people.
"No matter what, I'm just glad that it was treated."
Ellen nodded. "Eugene told me how amazing you were! I'd like to thank you, Olivia. Ever since Eugene met you, he's
been smiling a lot more and has become a kinder human being!"
Olivia glanced at Eugene who was currently cooking in the kitchen and let out a sweet smile, responding, "He's
been taking care of me a lot more than I've been of him."
Ellen giggled and said, "He's a man. Of course, he has to take care of his girlfriend."
Olivia smiled. Initially, she thought that she would be looked down on for already having a child, but be it Eugene's
grandfather or his mother, she had been welcomed and treated extremely well. This made her feel that it was not
as challenging as it seemed to date Eugene, as being welcomed into such a wealthy family didn’t seem to be such a
difficult thing.
After dinner, Eugene recounted to everyone what happened today in the indoor theme park.
Then, Brian bantered, "North, you like that girl, don't you?"
