Unfinished Business with You novel

Chapter 553

He was ultimately the person to blame for all of her suffering today.

Eugene looked at her and instantly rushed forward to take her into his arms. "Olivia, don't be mad. I'm investigating this right now. Once I find the culprit, I'll definitely hand her over to you so you can vent your anger, alright?"

However, Olivia merely stared soullessly at the lights refracted from the window. The light rays felt warm on her body, but the words that came out of her mouth were cold and lifeless, "Ever since I've gotten together with you, I've been subject to all sorts of rumors and speculations. The number of times that I've trended on social media since we've gotten together have been way more than the number of times combined in the past."

Momentarily stunned, he quickly replied, "I'm sorry, Olivia. It's indeed my fault for implicating you. I've got a lot of things to tell you, but I've been riddled with my stupid family matter. I can't seem to figure things out for the time being. Could you give me some time? I'll figure out a solution soon, alright? By then, I'll tell you everything that happened."

Truth was, Eugene felt as bad as Olivia. The guilt, pain, and anxious feelings he had all this while troubled him very much. He didn't quite know what to do.

He was tempted to tell her the truth and explain to her that he was the man she had slept with back then. However, he was afraid that she would break up with him in a fit of anger, especially right now.

She coldly responded, "You're quite right. There are indeed a lot of stupid issues in your family. I just want to lead a peaceful life with North but you've forcefully barged into our lives and now, I've been implicated and subjected to all these attacks and insults. You keep mentioning that you'll settle this as soon as possible, but when are you actually going to settle it?"

Olivia had a very aggressive stance and she looked at him with an exceptionally fierce look in her eyes.

Somehow, Eugene felt guilty. What does she mean by that? Is it because of the triggers from today, so she's just trying to vent her anger at me?
