Chapter 323 How She Did It?
“It’s fine because I’m not really bothered by it,” said Olivia. Eugene assured her, “I understand and I know how to
handle this.”
She then nodded slightly at him before leaving. Meanwhile, North gave him a wink and bade him farewell. “Uncle
Eugene, see you next time!”
Eugene nodded at him with a smile. Staring at their figures which were getting further and further away from him,
he slowly adopted a solemn face as he turned around and made his way back to the mansion.
Looking guilty, Alex and Hayden followed behind him. For some reason, they felt responsible for the matter
although they were not the culprit.
After all, Eugene had entrusted Olivia to them because he was worried about her, but what happened in the end? If
Olivia had not been alert enough, she would have been the one who was looking like a mess now instead of Aleena.
No wonder Eugene was so pissed with them!
It was only after they walked into a room did Eugene turn around and glare at the two guys behind him

Feeling coldness creeping down his neck, Alex tried to excuse himself guiltily, “Why are you staring at us like that?
We had no clue that she pulled off so many tricks just now!”
Eugene confronted them in his exasperation, “What exactly took place at the table just now?”
Alex responded resignedly, “In fact, I really have no idea. Hayden, did you catch anything?”
Hayden answered, “Nope because no one left the table throughout the entire time. Right from the beginning until
the end, Aleena only proposed a toast to Doctor Maxwell once and they didn’t interact much with each other later
on. I really have no idea when she drugged the drink.”
Alex pointed out, “But when Olivia broke a plate when they were drinking, no one was looking at the wine glasses as
everyone’s attention was on the broken plate. Perhaps it’s during that time that Oilvia swapped her drink with
Aleena’s!”
Alex had been busy observing Eugene’s expression while talking. “Why are you so angry over this matter? You
should be pleased to have such a smart girlfriend who was not only sharp enough to tell that her drink was
drugged, but she even knew how to give Aleena a taste of her own medicine!”
To be honest, Eugene was really pleased by what he said because he knew his girlfriend was indeed a brainy one.
However, did that fact have anything to do with them?
Once again, he shot them a baleful stare and criticized, “If she hadn’t been smart enough, she would have been
drugged.”
“Fine, I admit it’s our fault for failing to take care of her properly,” Alex conceded.
Still looking sullen, Eugene asked, “Where did Aleena get that glass of wine?”
Knitting his brows together, Hayden wondered, “Now that you mention it, it was rather odd. She took it from one of
the waiters so no one would have thought it could be drugged!”
Alex, who was stroking his chin in puzzlement, commented, “Don’t you think Olivia is even odder? She had been
with us the whole time and she didn’t go anywhere after sitting down at the table. How did she find out that the
wine was drugged?”
“You’re the odd one!” Eugene shot him another glare.
Alex chuckled, “I’m serious. If you were in her shoes, would you have been able to tell whether that glass of wine
was drugged or not? I’m sure I wouldn’t be able to do that, let alone come up with a plan to get back at Aleena so

Feeling proud of Olivia because of Alex’s comment, Eugene spoke airily, “I’m going to the control room.” He was
curious to know how Olivia did it.
Alex quickly followed after him. “I’m going with you.”
Hayden too followed suit because he was keen to know how Olivia managed to realize the problem.
When the three of them reached the control room, Eugene instructed one of the security officers to play the CCTV
footage of when they were drinking at the table. Soon, the footage reached the part where Aleena was taking the
glasses of wine from the waiter.
Eugene narrowed his eyes to examine the waiter. Could he have colluded with Aleena?
“Wait a minute. Let’s see where the waiter got the drinks from.”
The security officer first glanced at Eugene before rewinding slowly.
In the footage, the waiter was shown to be walking out of the kitchen with a tray of drinks and then walking into the
kitchen after serving them. Meanwhile, the footage of when he stood by the table to serve them the drinks was not
shown.
Upon closer look, the security officer found that there was something wrong with the time stamps.
