Chapter 1330 Eugene’s Stance
Olivia instantly felt a great deal better after noticing the devastated look on Eugene's face
as she commented, "You'd better pray that I'm having a daughter this time."
Eugene's eyes immediately glimmered with a sliver of hope as he gazed at her belly and
whined sadly, "My daughter, grow up quickly, okay? Look at the situation in our family. It's
one against five and I don't have a place in the family at all."
Olivia failed to stifle her amusement as she giggled at his antics. Meanwhile, he felt more
at ease now that her mood had brightened. So, he held her hand and said, "Dear, it's not a
problem for me when you lecture me, but please keep in mind that you're pregnant now.
You really shouldn't get worked up so often. There's really no need for you to be so upset
when it doesn't even affect us. What if all the mood swings you're having negatively
impacts the baby in your womb? Wouldn't that be a shame?"
She snorted derisively. "Why did you bring it up if it doesn't matter, then?"
A frown appeared on his face. "That's clearly not my point. Can't you grasp the main
point?"
"No, I can't. The first part of your great speech was so annoying that I couldn't even focus
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇton the latter part," she said, and Eugene pinched her nose playfully in frustration. "Baby,
your daddy is bullying me!" Olivia immediately pounced at this opportunity to complain to
their unborn child right then and there.
On the other hand, Eugene couldn't help but chuckle at the sight. He found it amusing
that Olivia was acting as silly as him, talking and staring at her belly even though she
knew that there wouldn't be a response. Yet, he cherished such heart-warming moments
with all his heart.
She calmed down after a while and started to think about what had happened in the
morning as she turned to him. "So, you mean that they're the ones who made the news
viral?"
"Yes," he answered promptly.
The knot between her brows deepened. "Didn't you just spoil your sister and her family's
plan by forcibly removing the headlines?"
Eugene looked into her eyes. Perhaps it was due to his unborn daughter as he sometimes
had the urge to dote and spoil her like he would toward his daughter. So, he ruffled her
hair gently as he flashed her a warm smile and said, "So be it. They now know my stance
after I've removed the headlines, at the very least. Besides, I was never interested in
getting involved in their family affairs, but since they made my wife so angry with their
actions, I should definitely seize this opportunity to make my stance known."
All of a sudden, she felt that it was a little inappropriate for them to poke their noses in
such matters. Even though it was true that she became hopping mad after seeing the
report this morning, it wasn't really her business, after all. She really had no right to force
Eugene to stand by her side unconditionally because of her friend. I think I went overboard
this time. If Eugene and Jade fall out because of this…
Judging from her silence, it was easy for Eugene to deduce that she was probably
overthinking yet again. "Don't brood over it. I'm the one who can't stand their actions. It's
not an issue at all if they want to strengthen their ties through arranged marriages, but
they should at least get the consent of the two individuals that would get married for the
sake of their business. They certainly can't just force two people into a marriage just like
that."
"Will your sister get even with you over this?" Olivia asked in concern.
He chuckled. "That doesn't scare me at all. Don't worry. I know that she'll listen to my
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmadvice, and I can talk her around if she comes looking for me."
"I just called Nathan and he claimed that he didn't spend the night with that woman," she
uttered. "I don't know whether I should trust him."
This information surprised Eugene. "Did he say that?"
"Yeah," she replied. "It looks like he isn't aware that he's trending nor that his mother had
looked for Halma."
Eugene was bewildered. "Jade even went to look for Halma?"
Olivia rolled her eyes at him and shot him a look that read, 'Duh?'
Still, after a few seconds, she confided, saying, "Not only did she ask Halma to leave
Nathan, but she also wanted Halma to talk Nathan into the arranged marriage. Honestly, I
have no idea what they're thinking. Did they really take Halma for a pushover?"
Eugene let out a helpless sigh. "It's true that they went overboard in this matter. I'll speak
to Jade about this matter."
"Forget it. It's just like you said, they should solve their relationship problems by
themselves. I've given Nathan a lecture earlier and spoke with him about this. Let's see
how he'll fix this mess. If he fails to come up with a good explanation regarding that hotel
incident, Halma will leave him even if it kills her, with or without your sister's
interference."
