Chapter 617
"Why do you keep standing up for such a woman? For her sake, you didn't even hesitate to set Mom up to have an
affair and forced her to leave the Nolan Family! You even found someone to kill her, but you were still unwilling to
give up. You ask someone to pick on Brian, wishing that you never had this son. If it wasn't for Grandpa's protection,
I probably wouldn't have made it until today. I really don't understand. Is your heart made of stone? Who else do
you have in your heart besides this woman?"
The moment Eugene said those words, the conference room fell into an odd silence where no one spoke for a long
time. Everyone looked at each other and exchanged hinting gazes with their eyes. What's the situation? Eugene has
actually spilled out all the scandals from that year?
Meanwhile, Edward was simply angered to the point that he did not know how to refute. He slammed his hand on
the table. "Eugene! Don't you dare say whatever you want just because you're the president! You say I did all those
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtvillainy acts, right? Then, tell me: when did I kill your mom and was still unwilling to give up? You say I wish I never
had a son like Brian, but when did I pick on him? And you, if I really want to act against you, do you think you can
still make it alive to this day, considering that you were a teenager back then? Do you think I can still let you point
fingers at me?"
Hearing that, Eugene retorted, "If it's not you, ask your wife then!"
Edward frowned fiercely and he glanced at Lara in a daze. Then, he immediately said, "I know you have issues with
Lara, but don't blame her for everything. Even if she doesn't like you, she won't argue with you out of her respect
for me. Stop making slanderous charges against her!"
However, Eugene snorted, "How much is your dignity worth?"
Feeling the panic in her rising, Lara pulled Edward and advised sensibly, "Hubby, forget it! Don't get into an
argument with Eugene for my sake. Since Eugene is fine now, the company can also get back on the right track.
Let's just leave!"
Edward still wanted to say something, but only gave Eugene a stern look when he received Lara's hinting gaze.
Then, they rose to their feet and planned to leave.
Eugene sneered when he saw them leaving. Then, he threw the pen in his hand on the table with a snap.
How loud would the sound of a pen dropping on a table be? Yet, it managed to cause everyone's hearts to tighten.
North also stopped spinning the pen in his hand as he had already mastered the pen spinning skill a little bit under
Merlin's patient guidance.
Seeing Eugene throwing the pen, North instinctively glanced at his face. Daddy's expression is considerably quite
relaxed.
Then, North secretly winked at Olivia again, to which she smiled.
Everyone had a tacit understanding. This is a whole set of traps for Lara? How can he let them leave just like this?
Even so, the shareholders in the conference were clueless about it since they still thought that Edward and Lara
had really left.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOne after another, everyone stared at the two. However, they saw that the people standing outside were all
bodyguards when Edward and Lara opened the door of the conference room. It was like a layer of dense mass.
At the same time, everyone's facial expression was like they had already expected this situation. Told you so! How
can Eugene possibly let them leave so easily?
An enraged Edward yelled, "Eugene! What's the meaning of this? I didn't even mess with you, but you're so
enthusiastic about it!"
Sitting on the swivel chair, Eugene turned around. The curvature of his lips when he looked at Edward and Lara was
a total mockery. "Remember what I said to you in the office?"
Edward frowned upon hearing that. He was unable to recall which sentence Eugene was referring to for a while.
However, Eugene did not really let him think hard about it. Looking at Edward, he curled the corner of his lips into a
faint smile. "I said I hope you won't have a day that you come to regret. Otherwise, I will let you be so overwhelmed
with grief that you hardly wished to live. Initially, since it's almost New Year, I was thinking of letting you have a
joyful New Year, but your wife was discounted with her lot. So, I have no choice but to act beforehand!"
