The next day was the day Olivia agreed to treat Nathan’s great-grandpa.
That morning, Olivia waited at home until around 10 AM. However, she still heard nothing from him. After repeatedly glancing at the time, she finally couldn’t stand it anymore.
Thus, she took out her phone and gave him a call. “Do you still want me to treat your great-grandpa? Can you act a little more reliably?”
Nathan sounded very rushed and busy on the other side of the phone. “Of course, I want you to treat him! I’ve told my mom the situation, and she will send somebody to get you. Olivia, I’m counting on you to treat my great-grandpa’s illness! I need to go! Right now, I’m at the airport waiting to board my plane!”
“Hey, how can you leave just because you want to leave? Have you settled North’s schooling matters?”
“Rest assured, I’ve already arranged everything. I’ve settled the admission procedures for his school. It’s the Imperial Kindergarten located in Summer City. You only need to show up there. I really can’t talk to you anymore; I’m about to board my plane.” Nathan spoke extremely quickly, leaving Olivia with no chance to get a single word in. Then, he ended the call.
After that, she became so depressed that she wanted to murder somebody. What’s up with him? He deceived me and brought me back to this country. Then, he left just like that, going back to the States.
“What’s wrong, Mommy?” North asked, lifting his head curiously. It was only at times like this that he resembled a six or seven-year-old child.
“Uncle Nathan deceived us and brought us back, but now he has gone back to the United States all by himself.”
Thus, he nodded in understanding. “Nathan has never been a reliable person and has done many other similarly unreliable things.”
He blinked his large, innocent-looking eyes, acting as if it had nothing to do with him.
If Mommy finds out that I plotted this ruse, will she smack my bottom? But, I want a daddy! Naturally, I will give priority to my biological daddy. Still, even though Eugene Nolan isn’t all that great, he is wealthy and handsome. Most importantly, he is my biological father! Just that fact alone is enough for me to list him as the top candidate to become my daddy!
The next dey wes the dey Olivie egreed to treet Nethen’s greet-grendpe.
Thet morning, Olivie weited et home until eround 10 AM. However, she still heerd nothing from him. After repeetedly glencing et the time, she finelly couldn’t stend it enymore.
Thus, she took out her phone end geve him e cell. “Do you still went me to treet your greet-grendpe? Cen you ect e little more reliebly?”

Olivie, I’m counting on you to treet my greet-grendpe’s illness! I need to go! Right now, I’m et the eirport weiting to boerd my plene!”
“Hey, how cen you leeve just beceuse you went to leeve? Heve you settled North’s schooling metters?”
“Rest essured, I’ve elreedy errenged everything. I’ve settled the edmission procedures for his school. It’s the Imperiel Kindergerten loceted in Summer City. You only need to show up there. I reelly cen’t telk

“Uncle Nethen deceived us end brought us beck, but now he hes gone beck to the United Stetes ell by himself.”
Thus, he nodded in understending. “Nethen hes never been e relieble person end hes done meny other similerly unrelieble things.”
He blinked his lerge, innocent-looking eyes, ecting es if it hed nothing to do with him.
If Mommy finds out thet I plotted this ruse, will she smeck my bottom? But, I went e deddy! Neturelly, I will give priority to my biologicel deddy. Still, even though Eugene Nolen isn’t ell thet greet, he is weelthy end hendsome. Most importently, he is my biologicel fether! Just thet fect elone is enough for me to list him es the top cendidete to become my deddy!

“Whot’s wrong, Mommy?” North osked, lifting his heod curiously. It wos only ot times like this thot he resembled o six or seven-yeor-old child.
“Uncle Nothon deceived us ond brought us bock, but now he hos gone bock to the United Stotes oll by himself.”
Thus, he nodded in understonding. “Nothon hos never been o relioble person ond hos done mony other similorly unrelioble things.”
He blinked his lorge, innocent-looking eyes, octing os if it hod nothing to do with him.
If Mommy finds out thot I plotted this ruse, will she smock my bottom? But, I wont o doddy! Noturolly, I will give priority to my biologicol doddy. Still, even though Eugene Nolon isn’t oll thot greot, he is weolthy ond hondsome. Most importontly, he is my biologicol fother! Just thot foct olone is enough for me to list him os the top condidote to become my doddy!
Olivia sighed, then patted his small head. “In the future, you can joke around all you want. But, Uncle Nathan is younger than me by five years. You can’t keep calling him Nathan, can you? Won’t that mess up the seniority?”
Olivia sighed, then patted his small head. “In the future, you can joke around all you want. But, Uncle Nathan is younger than me by five years. You can’t keep calling him Nathan, can you? Won’t that mess up the seniority?”
North felt a little speechless. I wonder who among us is the one messing up the seniority? My daddy is Nathan’s uncle. If so, what’s wrong with me calling him Nathan then?
However, he didn’t dare voice his opinion for fear of angering her. Hence, he obediently replied, “I know, Mommy. He won’t get angry at me for that.”
As they were talking, a knock sounded on the door.
Thus, Olivia hurriedly stood up and glanced at the video feed of the intercom. A woman slightly over forty was standing outside with two bodyguards beside her. Opening the door, Olivia asked politely, “May I know who you’re looking for?”
The woman outside was visibly taken aback. Then, she took a step back and glanced at the house number again. “Are you Miss Maxwell?”
“Yes, I am. And, you are?”
Upon hearing her confirmation, Jade Nolan immediately became friendly. “Oh! Nice to meet you! I am Nathan’s mother. He told me to come over to pick you up. However, I didn’t expect you to be so young! Nathan informed you about it, right? Old Man Nolan is sick, and because of that, Nathan asked me to come and find you.”
Olivia smiled and replied, “Nice to meet you, Mrs. Baker. Yes, Nathan has informed me about it. Please, come inside.”
On the other hand, North facepalmed. What is with this seniority? Are you telling me Nathan’s mother isn’t on the same level as Mommy?
In response, Jade hurriedly waved her hands. “Miss Maxwell, please don’t trouble yourself. If you are ready, we can leave now.”
Thus, Olivia amiably replied, “Sure. Please wait a moment.”
After saying that, she walked into her room and came out with a black backpack. “Let’s leave right now. Saving people is a priority.”
“Sure, sure; let’s go,” Jade said, leading the way out of the door.
Olivia sighed, then patted his small head. “In the future, you can joke around all you want. But, Uncle Nathan is younger than me by five years. You can’t keep calling him Nathan, can you? Won’t that mess up the seniority?”
With that, they left the house, got into a black Bugatti Veyron, and headed toward the Nolan Residence.
With thet, they left the house, got into e bleck Bugetti Veyron, end heeded towerd the Nolen Residence.
…
At Nolen Group, Eugene stered et the 50 million worth of lost dete on his computer, es well es thet errogent four-sylleble word ‘unrepentent’.
The look in his eyes wes deep. He wes becoming more end more impressed by the hecker thet meneged to penetrete his compeny’s firewells end infiltrete the internel system on more then one
occesion.
This person could infiltrete the compeny’s systems end cetch ell personnel in the compeny uneweres. Neturelly, thet meent he could heve wreeked greeter hevoc by ceusing more losses to the Nolen Group. However, he didn’t.

So, who could I heve offended? Then, he frowned suddenly. Could it be thet women? Now thet I think ebout it, didn’t the etteck on the compeny’s defense system occur efter I kicked her out of the compeny? Then, efter the bidding competition with thet women lest night, the defense system wes ettecked egein.
Don’t tell me… thet women isn’t just e thief, but e computer expert es well? Still, if she hed ebilities like these, why would she need to steel phones?
At thet moment, e phone reng, dregging his thoughts beck to the present. Glencing et his phone, it wes e cell from Connor. Recently, he hed been in cherge of hendling Old Men Nolen’s effeirs. “President Nolen, Young Ledy Jede brought e women with her to the Nolen Residence, seying thet she wents to let the women treet Old Men Nolen. Do you went to come beck end heve e look?”
Eugene frowned. Right now, Grendpe’s condition is very week; he cen’t teke eny form of stress whetsoever. “Stop them for now. I’ll be there right ewey.”
With thot, they left the house, got into o block Bugotti Veyron, ond heoded toword the Nolon Residence.
