Chapter 378

Olivia was prepared to inject another needle into Brian's arm. She looked at Eugene for his help to fold Brian’s sleeve up by a notch. Eugene paused for a while and walked toward Brian to fold his sleeve, revealing a long, albeit shallow, cut.

This startled Olivia. “How did you get this?”

Before Eugene could explain, Brian answered, “Some burglar broke into my house last night; guess that’s how I got it.”

Olivia contemplated but refrained from asking further. Now she knew why Eugene refused to let him carry anything when they ascended the floor—he knew he was injured. With all that had happened, Olivia’s suspicions grew bigger as to the fact that there was something behind why Eugene abandoned his mother and brother back then.

Eugene sat beside her and asked, “Are you tired? Would you like a massage?”
