Chapter 715
"No can do," the father and son said in unison. Looking at each other, Eugene and North smiled; the little guy had
finally interacted with his father.
Holding onto Olivia's hands, Eugene stated, "We can't leave a time-bomb ticking like this. Otherwise, I can't go to
sleep at night knowing that someone is constantly plotting against you."
North nodded in agreement.
Nathan pitched in too, "That's right. We have to get to the bottom of this. It will be terrifying to live with a constant
threat lurking in the shadows."
Hearing this, Olivia thought they made sense too.
"Okay. Let's dig deeper, then."
She then looked at Eugene again. "Eugene, can I be discharged already? I'm fine now and it's so suffocating to stay
here."
Patiently, he replied, "The doctor said you need to be observed for forty-eight hours. We'll discharge you if you're
okay by tomorrow. Just one more day, alright?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"But, I want to go home and shower. I feel filthy," whined Olivia.
Raising his eyebrows, Eugene had a thought and suggested, "How about I bathe you tonight?"
At that moment, the air became still and Nathan, Kate and North were all speechless. My God, he really is bold,
thought Nathan; My God, have the two become that close already? thought Kate; My God, I'm still young! thought
North.
Olivia's face instantly flushed red as she stared at him. Does he have a death wish?
Looking at everyone's gaping mouths, Eugene finally realized what he just uttered.
Innocently, he purely meant what he said as he did not bear any ulterior motives. All he was thinking about was to
wipe her down with a towel as an alternative for showering.
Since they were already together and had done all sorts of things a couple would, wiping her down was not a big
deal, right?
At this point, Kate was afraid that Olivia might ask for her help instead. If that happened, would it be wiser to run or
stay?
If I help her, Eugene will think that I'm an eyesore.
If I don't, that petty girl would say that I'm heartless!
In the end, she came to the conclusion that she should just leave!
Smiling, she said, "Since President Nolan is here, I'll leave for now. Call me if anything happens." With that, she took
her bag and went out.
"Hey-"
Just as Olivia was about to stop her, Kate was already out of her sight.
Oh, well. She slipped away faster than a rat.xo.com fast update
I was just trying to ask her to bathe me instead...
With Eugene helping me, that's no different than playing with fire.
Understanding the situation, Nathan quickly said, "I'll be leaving too. Do call if you need me, Uncle." He then exited
the ward.
North looked at the two innocently and asked, "Should I do the same too?" The two escapees left in a hurry as if
Eugene was about to bathe Olivia right here and then; the situation was all deciphered by the little guy.
"And where would you be going?"
North answered, "Home, of course!"
"Why didn't you ask Nathan to send you back?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPouting, North rebuked, "He must have gone to chase god-mother. I don't wanna be a third-wheel."
This made Olivia look at him with a questioning gaze before she averted her gaze at Eugene.
The father and son were perplexed by her gaze.
"What's wrong?" asked Eugene.
Olivia stated, "Don't you think our son is maturing a tad too fast? He seems to know about everything."
At a loss of words, North uttered, "Mommy, I'm already eight years old."
"And is that supposed to be old? Besides, you haven't even celebrated your seventh birthday."
"I'm already considered eight!"
Eugene laughed upon hearing their conversation.
Haha.lf only she knew... that North wanted to board an airplane to visit Dora and that he'd even enquired about the
ticket pricing already. I wonder what her reaction would be by then?
"It is natural for kids to know more since they are receptive to all the vast information around them. Besides, our
son is into computers, so isn't it natural for him to know more than something? Relax. With a mother like you by his
side, I'm sure nothing bad will happen. I even believe that he's mature thanks to you."
