Chapter 923 A Plot

Olivia shot him a glare. "Are you going to tell me or not?"

Eugene hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes. Seven years ago, the Nolan Group had just set foot in Nambahd. At that time,

Hayes wasn't the king, but he had helped me a lot. He gave me the green light on many projects and helped me

earn a considerable amount of money, so we became good friends. The next year, after the old king passed away,

Hayes would supposedly take over the throne. However, he faced some obstacles since Sirius wanted to snatch

power from him. Sirius and Hayes were equally matched and had roughly the same number of supporters. The war

was in a stalemate. Then, they contacted me respectively. I wasn't powerful back then, but since Hayes had helped

me, I decided to side with him to repay his favor."

After a pause, he continued, "At that time, Promise Island was developing rapidly, so I had quite some enemies.

One night, just as we ended a fight with Sirius and were ready to retreat, someone opened fire in our direction. I

initially thought those from Sirius' side were ready to strike again, so I told some people to take Hayes away while I

took action with several subordinates separately. After exchanging moves, I realized they were not Sirius' people.

Instead, they were assassins from different parties. My life was worth a lot at that time. My subordinates were soon

killed, and I was shot in the chest."

He looked at her and said, "You saw it before, didn't you?" Here." He pointed at his left chest.

Olivia was speechless, wondering when she had seen it before. Although they slept in the same room, they were

usually fully clothed.

"I thought I was dying," Eugene continued as he looked calmly at the sea while recalling the past. "I had lost my

sense of direction. When a house came into my sight, I staggered toward it and knocked on the door repeatedly

before passing out."

As Olivia looked at him, she felt her chest tightening for some reason. She asked, "Did Azalea save you?"

He nodded. "At that time, I didn't know who she was. When I woke up, she was already seated by my side. She said

I almost lost my life as the bullet was close to my heart. She was worried that I would lose my life before I even

arrived at the hospital and that the turmoil in the country would make me fall into danger, so she found a doctor to

remove the bullet for me. However, since the doctor didn't have the best equipment typically found in a hospital, I

was still infected. For the entire week, I suffered from a fever and was in a groggy state. However, I could feel

someone taking care of me."

He stole a glance at Olivia, not daring to speak any further.

Even if Olivia claimed she would not mind such matters, she certainly would not feel pleased in her heart.

Just as he was thinking if he should continue narrating the story, she said, "Go on. Did you fall in love with her?"

He took a deep breath and replied, "No. You were already in my heart at that time. Although we weren't a couple, it

was better than having no one in my heart. Azalea took care of me for over ten days before I gradually recovered.

Soon, I discovered that she was Sirius' daughter. I was determined to find you, and since her father was my

opponent, I'd never fall in love with her. Then, Sirius discovered that I stayed in Azalea's house, so he surrounded us

with soldiers and gave me two options. I would either help him or go to hell. I hadn't fully recovered yet, so it wasn't

like I had a choice. Azalea knew what was on my mind, so she passed me a gun and told me to hold her at

gunpoint. That was how I managed to escape."

Then, he explained, "I feel like my trip to Nambahd this time was a plot. Not long after I arrived, I was taken to the

police station for an investigation. Then, Sirius found me and asked his subordinates to take me away. He claimed

that Azalea wanted to see me, so he wanted me to visit his house. However, my phone had been with him the

entire time. Although I could move freely in the City Palace, I couldn't leave."
