Chapter 1400 Which Matters More to You
Olivia replied, "No, I'm not surprised. Even people in an ordinary family would fight to the
death over a small sum of money, not to mention a royal family, where the supreme
power is involved. Where there are people, there'll always be conflicts. Some fight over
money, others over power. But even without these things, people can still get into fights
over a meal or a bit of favoritism. It's nothing that can't be understood."
Albert looked at her, his eyes suddenly sparkling with admiration. "You're really incisive."
As soon as he finished his sentence, he caught sight of Eugene's intensely murderous
gaze. He hurriedly added, "Which makes you a perfect match with Mr. Nolan!" And sure
enough, the intimidating gaze was gone. What was left was a man gently holding his
wife's hand and massaging her fingers one at a time, his eyes lowered.
A perfect match? Olivia looked at Eugene with a smile. I like this phrase.
Eugene also looked at her, upon which they exchanged a smile, their eyes filled with
affection for each other.
How could Albert not read the situation? He promptly suggested, "It's getting late now, so
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwhy don't you two rest for the night? I'll have an audience with Her Majesty tomorrow
before taking you two to check on my godmother."
"Okay," replied Olivia.
After ordering his servants to show them to their room, Albert finally took his eyes off the
couple. River has always said he's fallen for Olivia. He's fond of her, perhaps, but not the
kind between men and women, because he doesn't get angry or jealous at seeing her with
Eugene. Perhaps he has pure admiration for her and found this woman fascinating and
intelligent.
Olivia replied, "No, I'm not surprised. Even people in an ordinary family would fight to the
death over a small sum of money, not to mention a royal family, where the supreme
power is involved. Where there are people, there'll always be conflicts. Some fight over
money, others over power. But even without these things, people can still get into fights
over a meal or a bit of favoritism. It's nothing that can't be understood."
After returning to their room, both Eugene and Olivia sank into deep thought. Olivia said,
"Blanchett's first husband was Beatrix's father. Does that mean Beatrix and I are biological
sisters? It's impossible to have a DNA test done on members of the royal family without
alerting anyone. How can I find out who my father and mother were?"
Holding her in his arms, Eugene comforted her, saying, "Don't overthink it. Let's wait until
we've seen Doreen tomorrow."
Olivia frowned. "Should I take out my necklace?"
"No, not now. Never take it out until we can ensure our safety. Now that both forces are
coveting the necklace, you'll become a target if you take it out now."
Olivia replied, "Yeah, I know that. I'm just a bit confused right now. I thought I might be
somehow related to Albert and his sister by blood, but now, things seem even more
complicated. It seems like I'm more closely related to Beatrix instead. By helping Albert
like this, would I be harming Beatrix in some way?"
"Which matters more to you, then? Your blood relationship with her or her character?"
Olivia said, "I only care about my patients. I'm a doctor, so it's my duty to treat and save
lives. To me, it's not my place to judge whether that patient is right or wrong. I'm just
scared that someone might die because of a wrong decision I make."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEugene replied, "No, it won't happen. Everyone has their own destiny, and it's not
something you can control. We just have to do whatever we can. As for who your parents
are, we'll look into it as much as we can, but if we can't, then let it be. It's not like you
have no family. You have me, our sons, and such a big family waiting for you. Even if you
do turn out to be Blanchett's daughter, she's already deceased. Looking into it or not isn't
that important to you anymore, isn't it?"
Snuggling her head in his chest, Olivia replied with an obedient nod, "Uh-huh. It's not
important anymore."
It was already past 9.00AM when they came out of their room the next day.
Everyone they met in the large house greeted them politely. Unfortunately, there wasn't a
single familiar face among them, which gave a sense of strangeness.
Shannon and Everett were already waiting in the living room when Olivia and Eugene
came downstairs. At the sight of the couple, they greeted them separately.
The four of them were led to the dining room by the servants. Compared to the grand
dinner of the night before, today's breakfast was relatively simple, though there were also
dozens of dishes for them to choose from. Fortunately, there were no servants standing by
and serving them at the table like the night before, making Olivia feel much more at ease.
