Unfinished Business with You

Chapter 102

“Alright, just don’t find trouble with her in future.”

“Alright, just don’t find trouble with her in future.”

“Of course, Mr. Mccarthy. Don’t worry,” Joe replied.

In high spirits, Brian declared, “Consider the half a million debt you owe me repaid!” After he’d said that, he hung up the phone, leaving Joe dumbfounded.

Shortly after Olivia arrived at the studio, Eugene came. Olivia was rather surprised upon seeing him, so she smilingly joked, “Is this an Undercover Boss visit, President Nolan?”

Walking into the room, Eugene looked around before proclaiming with a serious expression, “I’m just here to see whether you’re slacking on the job!”

“Look how dedicated I am.” Olivia stretched her dirty hands out to him.

“Just leave the grunt work to the others. You don’t have to do it.”

Olivia curled her lips. “You’re still looking down on the working class?”

Throwing her a sidelong glance, he said, “Don’t simply put words in my mouth. I obviously meant that each person has his or her own forte. While you’re poor at such a task, they’re definitely not as good as you when it comes to design!” NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

Olivia nodded in satisfaction. Well, his explanation passed muster. “Oh yes, I’ve got something to ask you. Was it you who did that to the two people on Jordan Bridge yesterday?”

Eugene cocked an eyebrow. “What do you think?”

“It was you!” Olivia’s voice was filled with conviction.

Neither affirming nor denying it, Eugene turned and asked with a smile, “Where’s North?”

“He’s inside.” As Olivia said that, she called out in the direction of the inner room, “North, come here!” In no time, North came running out, his hands dirty as well. “Gosh, why did you get all dirty as well?” Olivia took him to the sink.

“I wanted to help them finish faster,” North explained.

While Olivia rolled up his sleeves, she chided, “Didn’t you hear your Uncle Eugene say that each person has his or her own forte? This is not our forte, so you should just focus on studying.”

When the two of them came out after washing their hands, Eugene said, “I noticed that Grandpa was in a good mood yesterday, and it was all thanks to North. I’m just thinking of going back to Nolan Residence, so I’d like to ask North whether he’d like to go and visit Grandpa.”

Knowing what he meant, North hurriedly piped up, “Sure!”

Olivia quickly tugged at him. “No, I don’t think he should go. North is too rambunctious, so he’ll disrupt your grandpa’s rest. Just take him over when your grandpa’s health has improved.”

“I’m aware of your concerns, but you don’t need to worry about anyone saying anything with me there. You might think that Grandpa has plenty of people keeping him company that he doesn’t even have time to rest, considering the vastness of the Nolan Family and its businesses, but in reality, he’s actually very lonely. There isn’t even anyone to talk to him usually. I think he loves chatting with North because he always asked why North didn’t come along every time I went back. As you said, keeping a

patient’s spirits high is extremely crucial. If you don’t have any other concerns, please allow me to take your child with me. In any case, I can even pay for the privilege.”

Since he’d said as much, Olivia couldn’t possibly refuse anymore. Besides, she just felt a tad distressed at the thought of that adorable old man without any company. “Will you be there as well?”

“Yes. I usually leave at noon so that I don’t disrupt Grandpa’s nap,” Eugene replied.

“Do you want to go, North?”

Nodding, North answered, “Yes.”

Only then did Olivia look at Eugene, her tone solemn. “I don’t need any payment. North is going over to keep him company out of the kindness of his heart and because he enjoys a close relationship with him. Thus, it won’t be good if people gossip about us, mistaking his good intentions for bad.”

Eugene inhaled deeply. This little lady is truly eloquent. “Okay, I got it. I promise there will be no gossip.”

Olivia then gave North a few reminders, saying, “Don’t make noise there, and just visit for a short while, okay?”

“Okay, Mommy!” As North said that, he walked out with Eugene.

After the two of them had driven a fair distance away, Eugene asked, “Will your mommy think that I abducted you?”
