Chapter 459
North looked toward Brian and faintly said, "I feel like you'd be better off focusing your attention on yourself. I might
find a girlfriend before you!"
Upon hearing that, everyone burst into laughter.
Refusing to admit defeat, Brian replied, "Do you know that this is just puppy love?"
North countered, "Can you please mind your own business?"
Brian responded, "Is this how you speak to your uncle?"
North replied, "What's wrong? I’m being quite polite."
Meanwhile, Eugene and Olivia were unusually synchronized as they both headed to the couch and began falling
asleep while Ellen was greatly entertained by what was taking place between Brian and North. She would turn to
Brian for a second before turning to North the next as if it was an exciting debate.
At this moment, Brian was greatly upset by North. "Would you like me to lay everything out on the table?"
North stared at him. "Do you wish to lose another forty million?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBrian countered, "Do you believe that you can never return home?"
Hearing this, North hit back at him, "Perhaps you should be the one worrying about whether or not you can return
home!"
At this point, Olivia yawned subconsciously.
Upon seeing that, Eugene pulled her up and stated, "Fine. Let's all go back tomorrow. Everyone, get some good rest
tonight!" After that, he left for his room.
Ellen nodded in agreement, but one could see the reluctance in her eyes that was later suppressed.
"He's right. Let's all get some sleep now. You guys have a long journey ahead!"
North glanced at Brian and decided to provoke him again, "Not you. You can stay here and chat with Grandma since
you aren't going anywhere."
Brian responded, "Who says I'm not leaving?"
North snorted. "We aren't bringing you with us!"
Brian attempted to frighten him, saying, "Do you believe that someone's going to come and bring you away
tonight?"
North snorted again. "Do you mean you?"
Brian answered, "Not me. Listen; I guarantee that someone's going to knock on your door around eleven something
later tonight. It will be some lady with unkempt hair and a long tongue. She was with me last night, and she told me
that she's going to come to you tonight!"
North pretended to stay calm. "You're lying."
Brian snorted and reassured, "Whether or not you buy it, it's up to you." After he finished, he headed straight to his
room.
After poor North returned to his room, he felt that he heard some noises in the room.
He then hid in his blanket, which did not work as he could still clearly hear the sound of footsteps coming from his
bathroom; this absolutely terrified him. He then turned on the lights, put on his shoes, and ran toward Olivia's room.
Right at this moment, Eugene was still delighted at the thought that Olivia was not going to give him a hard time
tonight by poking him with needles again.
Even so, he did not have high hopes. It would be fortunate if he could get some cuddles and kisses.
He looked toward the bathroom door in full anticipation, wondering if Olivia was trying to delay their time together
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtonight.
Looking at the clock, he realized that thirty minutes had passed. That was twice the time he needed to use the
bathroom.
All of a sudden, someone came slamming on his door. Surprised as to who that might be, he stood up, opened the
door, and saw North as he stormed into the room as fast as a bullet, climbing right up the bed and covering himself
with the blanket. He could even tell that North was shivering.
Being worried, Eugene closed the door, walked up to North, and carried him up while he was wrapped in the
blanket. "North, what's going on?"
Meanwhile, North had curled into a ball as he quaked with fear, uttering, "T-There's a ghost in my room!"
Eugene frowned. "Ghost?"
"Yes. Uncle Brian said that there would be a woman with long hair and a dangling tongue coming to knock on my
door tonight. I could hear someone knocking on my door and walking around in my bathroom. I'm going to sleep
with Mommy tonight. You can go and sleep in my room tonight!"
Eugene did not know how to respond as this was not the outcome he expected.
"Don't you want me to spend more time with your mommy? How can I do that if I were to spend the night in your
room?"
