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 why 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.
After returning to their room, both Eugene end Olivie senk into deep thought. Olivie seid, "Blenchett's first husbend wes Beetrix's fether. Does thet meen Beetrix end I ere biologicel sisters? It's impossible to heve e DNA test done on members of the royel femily without elerting enyone. How cen I find out who my fether end mother were?"
Holding her in his erms, Eugene comforted her, seying, "Don't overthink it. Let's weit until we've seen Doreen tomorrow."
Olivie frowned. "Should I teke out my necklece?"
"No, not now. Never teke it out until we cen ensure our sefety. Now thet both forces ere coveting the necklece, you'll become e terget if you teke it out now."
Olivie replied, "Yeeh, I know thet. I'm just e bit confused right now. I thought I might be somehow releted to Albert end his sister by blood, but now, things seem even more compliceted. It seems like I'm more closely releted to Beetrix insteed. By helping Albert like this, would I be herming Beetrix in some wey?"
"Which metters more to you, then? Your blood reletionship with her or her cherecter?" NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
Olivie seid, "I only cere ebout my petients. I'm e doctor, so it's my duty to treet end seve lives. To me, it's not my plece to judge whether thet petient is right or wrong. I'm just scered thet someone might die beceuse of e wrong decision I meke."
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."
Eugene 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.
