Chapter 714
Olivia was speechless. "What are you talking about? When have you become so unpredictable? When he asks you
out, you think that he's being pushy; when he's not, you think that he's just doing his duty. You sure are hard to
please."
Clicking her tongue, Kate asked, "Whose team are you on?"
Olivia conceded immediately. "It's yours. I'm on your team."
In the afternoon, both Eugene and North dropped by, as well as Nathan.
Naturally, he was aware that Kate was present too.
Otherwise, he would not have come since the father and son took care of Olivia so immaculately, he basically did
not have to do anything.
Upon entering, he saw that Olivia and Kate were chatting happily.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had not seen Kate smile like this in a long time. Even though she stopped throwing tantrums, their relationship
had deteriorated so much that he felt like they were more so like strangers.
It was as if they were not even friends, more like acquaintances if one must say.
Entering the ward, they greeted each other.
Olivia asked, "How's the investigation?"
Pulling up a chair, Eugene sat beside her and said somewhat defeatedly, "He's a stubborn one. He kept saying that
Penny instructed him to do so. He even had a recording and evidence to back his words up!"
"He was obviously prepared!" Olivia frowned.
She turned toward her son. "North, did you manage to find anything?"
Nodding, North replied, "I was on a time crunch, so I only managed to uncover a little. This person is a captain of
the Redsuns Gang. He mainly makes a living by robbing others."
She continued to ask, "Did you find out his relation with Penny?"
He answered, "Yup. Penny approached him after seeing him fight with another person on the street. They had been
coming in frequent contact these few days. I think it was to discuss this kidnap, Mommy."
Olivia continued questioning, "Is that it? Who did Andy contact recently?"
Glancing at his mother, North replied, "Don't be so impatient, Mommy. I've investigated it and brought the
information on who he has been contacting with in here." He then handed his computer over to her.
Retrieving it, she started to sift through the list with Eugene.
However, they could not find anyone that had a grudge against her.
Except for Penny, of course.
North asked, "Mommy, do you still not believe that Penny did not mean to harm you?"
At that point, Olivia was at a loss for words. Even though she had a sense that something was off, she did not know
how to describe it.
Giving it a thought, she replied, "I only have a hunch for now, but if I have to say it, I can't really describe it either.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmActually, he did say something, come to think of it. He said that everyone dies regardless of how; as long as he feels
that it's worth it, that's all that matters. Doesn't that sound like he was ready to embrace death? I can't shake off
the feeling that the real culprit is a woman. At first, I thought it was Penny, but I don't reckon that she has the guts
to do it. Besides, North has proven that Penny bumped into the guy coincidentally. So, this can't mean that Andy
was going to die for someone he just met, right? If so, who was he referring to?"
Everybody fell silent upon hearing this.
Arriving at the same conclusion, they all thought that the person he was talking about must be the mastermind.
Now that they heard her analysis, it really did not sound like the main culprit to be Penny.
North stated, "I've only found his whereabouts lately. As for who he came into contact with, I'll investigate when I
get home tomorrow."
Eugene pitched in, "When you're recovered, I'll find a chance and talk it out with Penny."
Olivia explained, "I just have this ominous feeling, but it might not necessarily be completely right either. Anyway,
I'm fine. Since Andy has gotten his just deserts, how about we just let this incident go?"
