Chapter 1281 Trouble Accepting the Reality
"How... How far along is she?"
Hector replied, "Six weeks."
Six weeks. So, the baby was conceived at that time when they were home.
They had been here for a little over a month.
"I'm going to see Olivia," Eugene said as he turned to leave.
However, Hector called out to him again just as he took a couple of steps, "Wait—"
Although Eugene stopped in his tracks, his heart had already flown to Olivia's side.
However, due to Hector's status, he could only patiently inquire, "Mr. Gedding, is there
something else?" Hector was a laid-back person, and he took his time to speak, "How did
you handle Mason's matter?"
Eugene replied, "I reported it to the police. They are investigating it through official
channels, and I'm investigating it secretly. I will seek justice for Mason. It's not only for him
but also for Blake."
As he spoke, his face darkened, and a hint of ruthlessness unconsciously flashed in his
eyes, which made people tremble with fear.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHector merely retorted calmly, "I don't care about how you handle it. I only want you to
ensure the safety of Olivia and the children. Since you've chosen to keep them by your
side, you will do your best to protect their safety."
Eugene nodded. "Yes. I promise I won't let them come to harm again."
Hector continued, "Also, you don't need to worry about Blake's condition. I think he's doing
well, all things considered. Since Mason is dead, you can keep the child you have with
Olivia. The umbilical cord blood of your child can also be used to treat Blake's illness."
Eugene suddenly came to a realization. Olivia was pregnant, and their child shared the
same biological parents as Blake. The umbilical cord blood could save Blake from a life of
despair.
"You're right. Thank you, Mr. Gedding. I'll be visiting Olivia."
After that, he turned and hurried away as he was afraid that Hector would stop him once
more.
This was truly a miraculous occasion!
He rushed into Olivia's hospital room.
She was still unconscious and maintained the same posture as when he left.
Shannon, seeing Eugene's hurried footsteps, thought something had happened and asked
worriedly, "Mr. Nolan, what's wrong?"
Eugene's expression was a bit excited as he vaguely replied, "It's nothing. Take care of
Blake. I want to be alone with Olivia for a while."
Shannon found it odd but didn't ask further. She simply reminded him, "Mr. Nolan, make
sure to call the nurse to remove the needle later once the intravenous injection is done."
Eugene merely gave her a distracted hum.
Then, she left and closed the door behind her.
Eugene's eyes remained fixed on Olivia. No wonder she fainted. It might be due to her
pregnancy.
He recalled the incident and felt a lingering fear. It was truly fortunate that she was fine.
Otherwise, the child might have been harmed in the process.
His gaze fell on her still-flat belly. It had already been six weeks. How hadn't she noticed?
His large palm gently covered her belly. This was their child and possibly Blake's last hope.
When Olivia woke up, it was already past 8.00PM.
When she opened her eyes, all she saw was white. White walls, a white ceiling, and a

fragments missing in her brain. Where was she?
She remembered...
Eugene said that Mason was killed by Blood Rose.
Was it a dream?
It had to be a dream!
She was probably too worried about the child's condition, so she had this nightmare.
"Olivia... Are you awake?"
A familiar voice came to her ears. She slowly turned her eyes in the direction of the voice.
It was Eugene.
He was still wearing the clothes from her dream and his face was filled with worry. His
hand holding hers felt warm. She wanted to move her fingers, but they refused to budge.
She looked at him somewhat bewilderedly and spoke softly, "Eugene, am I dreaming?"
A bitter feeling welled up in Eugene's heart. He tightened his grip on her hand and gently
asked, "What did you dream about?"
She seemed to be recalling and only spoke after a while, "I dreamt that Mason died."
Before Eugene could reply, tears welled up in her eyes and streamed down her cheeks.
He let out a soft sigh. In all honesty, she knew deep down that it wasn't a dream. She just
didn't want to accept such a reality.
