Chapter 1410 Equal Rights

Eugene wasn't even interested in batting an eye on Beatrix. Instead, he turned his attention to his wife and asked, "You said you were tired just now. So, why don't I carry you upstairs for some rest?"

"Alright." Olivia replied with an affirmative hum. Due to her calm and submissive reaction, she appeared to be sympathetic. At the same time, her innocent eyes and pitiful look only served to make her the woman that any man would want to protect upon laying eyes on her.

Eugene smiled in amusement, knowing Olivia was just putting on a show. Oh, come on. How can I not know my beloved wife? Due to his love for her, he would embrace everything about her, good or bad, including her bad temper and jealousy. However, it was precisely Olivia's submissiveness that melted his heart and made him crave her even more. Thus, he bent over and carried her in his arms, ready to head upstairs.

"Stop right there!" Beatrix furrowed her eyebrows, but Eugene ignored her and continued to step forward. No one has ever given me the cold shoulder again and again! Humiliated, she gestured to the guards behind her, whereupon they quickly overtook Eugene and stood in his way right before the stairs. "The princess told you to stop. You heard her."

At that moment, Shannon and Everett quietly stepped in and stood in front of Eugene, staring down the guards who were blocking their way. Then, Eugene's eyes were filled with rage as his face slowly darkened. "What's the meaning of this, Your Highness?"

"I was talking to you! Didn't you hear me?" Beatrix knitted her eyebrows and walked toward the couch where she sat. She then gave them all a disdainful look as if they were all her despicable slaves.

Olivia soon patted Eugene's shoulder as a signal to tell him to put her down, but the man somehow refused to listen. However, when Olivia insisted, he reluctantly put her down and glared at Beatrix with a glacial gaze. "I heard you, but I just didn't think we're so close to you that you'd want to especially greet us."

"Are you kidding me? Did you really think I was greeting you?" Beatrix was piqued by Eugene's words.

"Please forgive us, Your Highness. We were by no means being rude, but that's just the way we talk to each other as ordinary civilians. What my husband was trying to say was that you're the princess, which was why he didn't think you came all the way here to talk to a nobody like us." Olivia smiled, trying to defuse the situation.

"Seriously? How shameless of you to call yourself a guest here!" Beatrix grunted with a sneer.

Olivia tilted her head, pondering on Beatrix's words. Yeah, I'm a guest, aren't I? Having her eyes fixed upon Beatrix, Olivia was suddenly overwhelmed by a feeling of helplessness when she failed to talk some sense into the former's head. "Fine, I'd like to excuse myself for some rest if there isn't anything else important, Your Highness."

"Stop right there!" Beatrix grew more annoyed when she saw Olivia walking away. As Eurosia's princess, she was used to being greeted and bowed to by anyone who saw her. Thus, she couldn't fathom why Eugene and Olivia were both so daring to ignore her.

"You didn't come here to see us, but you also won't let us leave. What is that you want from us, Your Highness?" Olivia's face was written with a worried expression.

"Aren't you the doctor who's supposed to treat General Bleu? Show me what you've got as a doctor. I'd like to see what you can do! If you don't have what it takes, you'd better leave before you make a fool out of yourself!" Beatrix grunted arrogantly while challenging Olivia.
