Chapter 997 George’s Suspicions
Olivia's nose became sour as she couldn't resist grabbing his hand. She didn't know how to comfort him or explain
the entire matter to him.
There was no reason or explanation that she could use for love.
"I'm sorry, George. I never planned on falling in love. In fact, Eugene has been wooing me for quite some time now
as I've been refusing him. I won't dare to take the next step either. When Anna snatched North that time, he
accompanied me for the entire night in search of North. I was really worried that North would have nightmares, so
Eugene accompanied him for the entire night. In fact, both North and I had nightmares. I was so scared that I
stumbled into his room and when I saw that he was still asleep, I collapsed onto the floor. I really regretted not
listening to you and returning. I thought that if I didn't return, the child wouldn't have faced such danger. That's the

Later, Eugene asked why I wouldn't seek his embrace when I was so sad. I mentioned that he would want more if I
had done so. Maybe he was upset by my words, but he left at that moment. I was suddenly terrified because I
never felt such emotions before, but my pride wouldn't allow me to call out for him as I watch his figure slowly
disappear.
"Then, my dad called me, not to apologize but to plead for mercy on Anna's behalf. I felt my world darkening, so
when Eugene came over, I told them that we could try getting along first."
George refused to wait for her to continue speaking as he interrupted, "What's wrong with you? Is it because his
appearance has fulfilled your desires? Even if the man is not Eugene Nolan, I'm sure you'd have agreed too. Olivia,
are you sure you love him?"
Olivia nodded before she elaborated, "I also thought so, where I only accepted him because he fulfilled what I
needed at that moment. I know I don't warm up to people easily and it's difficult for me to fall in love. However, I
agreed to be his girlfriend in a short, few months. I was apprehensive, but after mingling with him, I noticed that
he's a good man. He takes good care of me and North, unlike how those rich men behave. He has self-discipline
and gives me enough security. I find that I jell in well with his family too, so don't worry, George, I know what I want.
He really treats me well."
Now that she had said those words, he couldn't find it in himself to retort her. He was now relieved because he
knew that apart from him, no one else could take care of her.
He slowly stood up and returned to his room.
Olivia glanced at North, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation silently at the side. It was as if he
intentionally exposed the matter.
"Did you do it on purpose?"
North feigned innocence as he asked, "Huh?"

She looked at him. "You knew that Mr. George is in the dark about my relationship with your father, so why the hell
did you say it was your father's watch?"
He retorted, "If I didn't say it, how are you going to explain it to Uncle George?"
Olivia was speechless.
Then, North grinned. "Uncle George already noticed that it's Daddy's watch. Would it matter if you continue to hide
the truth? You might as well be honest."
By him doing so, he would no longer need to be worried that Mr. George would snatch his mommy.
It was an excellent move!
So, he figured he should drink a glass of milk to reward himself.
At that thought, North went to the fridge to get his milk before returning to the table.
"Why are you acting like it doesn't affect you at all? Uncle George really treasured you for nothing."
North shook his legs and explained while drinking his milk, "Even though Uncle George treats me well, he's still not
my father! I can't justify my receiving my future inheritance that way!"
