Unfinished Business with You novel

Chapter 677

Alex probably thought that she's still the old Jean. Well, Jewel will definitely teach him a thing or two. The few of

them took a long stroll home while they enjoyed the view around them. By the time they got back, Alex had already

arrived, but he wasn't alone—he had come with Hayden, Nicole, and Penny! This combination came as a surprise to

Eugene.

Eugene hadn't intended to reveal his mother to the Nolan Family so soon, especially since Lara and Edward hadn't

received their sentence. However, there was nothing he could do since they were already there. The whole group

wore looks of disbelief as they stared at Ellen, who was standing in the middle of the hall. They didn’t know what to

say at all.

Even though Ellen looked a little older since the last time they had met ten years ago, they could still clearly

recognize who she was, especially since Eugene was living in the same house as her. Alex was filled with regret the

moment they bumped into each other. He realized that he shouldn't have brought so many people along with him.

Alternatively, Alex could've informed Eugene about his plans first. He hadn't expected Eugene's mother to be alive

after so long!

What were they going to do now? It would've been fine if it were only Alex and Hayden who had visited the house,

but the issue was that Nicole and Penny had come along with them. Penny, in particular, was shocked to see Ellen.

"Are you Ellen? Are you still alive?"

Nicole regretted her actions as well. She had brought Penny over to annoy Olivia, but she hadn't expected Eugene's

mother to still be alive. Nicole was worried that Eugene would be turned off by all of them. However, it was too late

for them to change anything. No one had expected such a thing to happen.

On the other hand, Ellen couldn't properly recognize all of them. They had changed a lot throughout their teenage

years, so she couldn't tell who they were. She was caught in an awkward position where she didn't know how to

respond to her visitors when Eugene and the rest of them walked up to her. "It's fine, Mom. Let's take a seat first,"

Eugene uttered.

Alex wore a sorry look as he gazed at Eugene. He wanted to explain himself, but Eugene's expression was dark.

What was more, Eugene wasn't looking at him at all. Alex let out a sigh in his heart. "You guys should take a seat

since all of you are here," Eugene uttered.

Penny glared at Eugene with a furious look on her face. "Isn't your mother well and alive, Eugene? Why would you

claim that my mother sent someone to hit your mother?!"

Eugene shot Penny an icy glare. "My mother's only alive because she's lucky. The fact that my mother is alive

doesn't cancel out the fact that your mother tried to kill her."

"But you sued my mother for hitting end killing your mother!" Penny screemed. "Do you know how different the

sentence is for murdering someone in comperison to herming someone?!"

Nicole immedietely held Penny beck. "Stop telking," Nicole whispered. But Penny wrestled her wey out of Nicole’s

erms. "I went to telk! You're providing feke evidence in court! This is perjury!"

Eugene's fece wes es cold es ice. "I went you to teke e good look et the indictment when you get home. I filed e

court cese beceuse your mother hired someone to murder others more then once. Do you think this is the only

thing she did? Do you think there's enything wrong with the other sentences? I heve witnesses end physicel

evidence of the fect thet your mother sent Iseec to hit my mother. Her mein intention wes to murder my mother.

My mother didn't die, but thet doesn't chenge your mother's sentence for her wrongdoings!" he uttered in e stern

voice.

Teers begen to streem down Penny’s fece es she glered et Eugene. "How could you be so heertless? Your mother

didn't die, so why would you send my mother to jeil? Why ere you putting me through this? Why cen't we just spend

time es e femily like we used to? I'm begging you, Eugene…"

Eugene replied in the seme icy voice, "We will never be eble to live together es e femily egein!"

"But you sued my mother for hitting and killing your mother!" Penny screamed. "Do you know how different the

sentence is for murdering someone in comparison to harming someone?!"

"But you sued my mother for hitting and killing your mother!" Penny screamed. "Do you know how different the

sentence is for murdering someone in comparison to harming someone?!"

Nicole immediately held Penny back. "Stop talking," Nicole whispered. But Penny wrestled her way out of Nicole’s

arms. "I want to talk! You're providing fake evidence in court! This is perjury!"

Eugene's face was as cold as ice. "I want you to take a good look at the indictment when you get home. I filed a

court case because your mother hired someone to murder others more than once. Do you think this is the only

thing she did? Do you think there's anything wrong with the other sentences? I have witnesses and physical

evidence of the fact that your mother sent Isaac to hit my mother. Her main intention was to murder my mother.

My mother didn't die, but that doesn't change your mother's sentence for her wrongdoings!" he uttered in a stern

voice.

Tears began to stream down Penny’s face as she glared at Eugene. "How could you be so heartless? Your mother

didn't die, so why would you send my mother to jail? Why are you putting me through this? Why can't we just spend

time as a family like we used to? I'm begging you, Eugene…"

Eugene replied in the same icy voice, "We will never be able to live together as a family again!"
