Chapter 1173 Why Are You Here?
"The day before yesterday," Olivia replied, "I heard from Carter and the others that you
would regularly give them injections. What injection is it? I don't dare to give them any
medication at the moment, so I can only ask you for help."
"One of them wards off viruses and the other strengthens their immune system. Don't
worry, neither of them will conflict with treatments for leukemia," Hector explained.
"Mr. Gedding, are those injections necessary? Can't they make do without them?"
An unfamiliar male voice rang out, and Hector looked in the direction of the voice. When
he saw Eugene's face, he froze on the spot. "Y-You're—"
Eugene nodded slightly when he met eyes with Hector. "Mr. Gedding, it's me, Eugene. Do
you remember me?"
Of course, I remember him. It was exactly because he remembered Eugene that he was
surprised. Why is Eugene here? When had he arrived? Had he been here all along? Why
didn't I see him?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOriginally, he thought that George found North and told Olivia about this, and the two
found the three children with North's help. He never thought that Eugene was involved as
well.
It was impossible for Hector not to notice a significant person like Eugene. He caught sight
of a blurry figure but didn't give it much thought. He thought that it was someone from the
clinic, and he was so worried for the children's safety that he overlooked the people
around him.
Did Eugene hear everything we talked about? No, wait. I think he knows everything.
"Why are you here?"
Before Eugene could say anything, Olivia explained, "Mr. Gedding, Eugene is my
boyfriend, and also North's biological father."
If Hector wasn't shocked before, he was now. North's biological father was none other than
Eugene! This is too coincidental to be true.
Hector looked at the three children in panic, then back at Eugene. Could it be that Eugene
already knew about the three children's backgrounds? What should I do? Why do I have a
feeling that he's here to take the kids away?
He looked at the crowd, each with their expression, then calmed himself and said, "Great,
your family is reunited now."
Eugene smiled lightly, naturally understanding Hector's trail of thoughts.
Hector had raised the three children, so he treated them like his own. It went without
saying that he would be reluctant to part with them, but what choice did Hector have?
Eugene and Olivia were the children's biological parents, so they also had the selfish wish
to have the children back by their side!
Eugene said, "North, take Carter and the others to another room to play. I have something
to say to Grandpa."
North nodded, then took the children with him and left.
Olivia told him, "North, there's a first-aid kit in my room. Apply some ointment on Carter's
hand."

North replied, "Got it, Mommy."
After the kids left, only Eugene, Olivia, Hector, and George remained in the room.
George knew that Eugene had diverted the children away so that he could talk to Hector
about them. By the looks of it, Eugene seriously wanted to raise the children himself.
George pouted in secret. That accursed Eugene was too lucky.
He decided that he would donate some of his own after a while, and then perhaps he
could have a son after a few months too.
Hector was a little shaken, however. He knew very well who the children's father was. He
looked at Eugene and feigned calmness as he asked, "Is there something you have to talk
about?"
Eugene looked at Hector and said earnestly, "Mr. Gedding, we never got to meet after our
last parting. I always wanted to thank you. Later, I got to know Olivia and learned she had
an amazing teacher. Only then did I know that the expert who saved my mom's legs was
you. I'm very grateful to you for saving her, and my mom can walk normally now."
Hector tried his best not to be involved with Eugene. "There's no need for thanks. We were
just getting what we needed. I contributed what was expected of me, and I received what I
wanted to get. Since Olivia likes you, and you're the child's father, you should treat Olivia
well. The child has been through a lot."
