Chapter 1380 Unveiling Deception
A flicker of panic passed through Mikaela's eyes, and she stammered, "W-What do you mean by that?"
With a cold glint in her eyes, Olivia persisted, "Isn't this your child? Why would you treat your kid like that?" This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
Feeling her heart sinking, Mikaela hastily attempted to deflect. "I don't know what you're talking about."
Olivia's lips curved mockingly. "You purposely made him cry just to find an excuse to see your dear George, didn't you?"
At that moment, Mikaela was stunned. How does she know? Is she trying to deceive me? She must be. She retorted defensively with a mix of fierceness and timidity, "What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I make him cry for no reason?"
Olivia retorted, "I'm wondering the same thing. Even a vicious tiger will not eat its cubs, but you? You're not even worth as much as a beast. Do you honestly think you can rekindle your relationship with George? Well, you're not even deserving!"
"D-Don't make baseless accusations. We're simply here to see a doctor."
Olivia held her phone threateningly. "Do you want me to call the cops?"
Mikaela snatched her child from Jewel's hands and angrily cursed, "You're crazy."
Olivia firmly stated, "That's your child, not a bargaining chip! I hope you have some morals and treat him well. Don't let me catch you hurting him again, or I'll call the cops."
Mikaela's heart trembled, and she dared not stay any longer. Clutching the child tightly, she left without looking back.
Penny's bright eyes gazed at Olivia, and she unexpectedly found her mesmerizing at that moment! She had noticed that Mikaela had developed an ulterior motive for George lately. When the child was sick, she dressed up daily and wore revealing outfits, yet there was no sign of worry on her face.
Thus, Penny did not like her and wanted to drive her away. However, being just a guest, she could only observe and prevent them from getting too close. Much to her surprise, Olivia effortlessly drove her away and appeared to see through her tricks. Otherwise, that woman would not have left so dejectedly.
"Liv, you're incredible! How did you see through her like glass?"
Olivia glanced at Penny indifferently. She bore no fondness for her either, but she had no choice because Penny was Eugene's sister. Why did she suddenly become so understanding? And she even called me Liv. Well, for the sake of this title, I'll tolerate her and give Eugene some face.
"Didn't you notice that the child was scared when he saw her?"
Penny could not comprehend. "Is that how you knew she deliberately made him cry?"
"When the child was in her arms, his thigh suddenly twitched. If it didn't hurt him, why would he cry?" With that, Olivia looked at her disdainfully and walked toward the backyard. Eugene immediately
followed, firmly taking his wife's side.
As Penny still had many questions to ask, she hurriedly caught up with her. "Hey, Liv, can you tell me what's the relationship between her and George? What did you mean by her wanting to reignite the relationship?"
Olivia replied, "Stop following me. I'm tired."
Penny stopped in her tracks and naively agreed. "Okay. Then, can I see you tomorrow, Liv?"
Olivia did not reply and quickened her pace.
Eugene frowned. "So, you don't like Penny pursuing George?"
Olivia glanced at him. "Do you think I should like it, then?"
He was puzzled, wondering why she would be disturbed by that match. Does that mean she likes George? However, asking such a question would only anger her, so he could not say it aloud.
After a moment of contemplation, he said, "We're married, and George is single. It's good for him to have someone to accompany him and help him move on faster. Isn't that a good thing?"
