He reached out to touch Bonnie’s face and said, “I won’t be home these few days. Mrs. Carter will help you take care of Bonnie for the time being. If anything happens, ask the butler to notify me.” Diana raised her head to look at him after registering his words. “Are you going on a business trip?” she asked. Why was he sending another person over to take care of the baby? Was he going to be away for a long time? “You don’t need to know about it. Your only responsibility is to take good care of Bonnie at home.” Simon never had to tell anyone about his whereabouts. Diana lowered her eyes in disappointment. She had crossed the line. She thought that she now had the right to at least ask him about where he was going.“Yes, don’t worry. Nothing will happen to Bonnie with so many people taking care of her. Do whatever you need to do,” she said as she lowered her head. “Alright,” Simon took a final glance at Bonnie before proceeding to leave. Robert had been waiting for him at
Quinn had just complained about Sharon. The butler then came in with a copy of the morning newspaper.There was an odd expression on the butler’s face, especially when he looked at Eugene.“What’s wrong? Why do you have such a grim expression on your face?” Quinn glared at the butler irritatedly. He then took the morning newspaper from him.“Old Master…” The butler did not want him to see the newspaper…“Why are you acting so strangely as well?” Quinn had already flipped open the newspaper. His clouded eyes became focused as he fixed his gaze on the newspaper. His expression changed as well.After glancing at the newspaper, he glanced at Eugene again. His brows slowly furrowed as his expression darkened.“This is simply wonderful. I was wondering why both of you are back home. Both of you are having relationship problems!” Quinn slammed the newspaper on the table as he glared at both of them. “I don’t have any relationship problems. Don’t accuse me.” Sharon immediately clarifie
Eugene’s gaze faltered. “It’s a problem with my company. You can’t do anything about it.” “Really?” It had nothing to do with her mother? Eugene nodded and said, “Go on. Otherwise, you’ll be late.” Rue got down the chair and told Quinn, “Grandfather, enjoy the rest of your meal. I’m going to get ready to go to school.” Old Master Newton still had a stiff expression on his face just a second ago, but a kind smile broke out on his face the moment he looked at Rue. “Alright, alright… Walk slowly, I’ll wait for you to come back from school.” After Rue left, Sharon and Quinn both looked at Eugene. They thought that he would give a clarification, but he stood up at once and told the old master, “I’ll handle this issue. You don’t need to be worried about the damage to the company’s profits.” Quinn still looked extremely dissatisfied. “Aren’t you going to explain what’s going on? Didn’t you say that you were going to obtain a marriage certificate with her and get married? Is she
Eugene had guessed correctly. The man had splashed acid at them! Sydney started to panic the moment she returned to her senses. The burning pain soon followed. She shouted out in terror, “Ah… My face…” Was she going to be disfigured? “Wyatt! Catch that man!” Eugene shouted coldly. The instigator could not escape.After giving Wyatt his orders, he carried Sydney and took her into his car. He then shouted at the chauffeur in a heavy tone, “Head over to the hospital at the fastest speed you can manage!”Sydney cried out in fear. She could not stop trembling all over.“I’m sorry, Sydney. I must take off your clothes,” he said while he removed her clothes. Her clothes were all splattered with acid. He had no choice but to take off all of her clothes to minimize her injuries.She had shielded him from the acid just now. Some of the liquid had splashed onto her face. The areas of her skin that had come into contact with the acid started to turn white.Eugene disregarded the differe
Fern was holding onto an iPad as she scrolled through the news article and comments online. She felt like the incident had truly blown up this time around.“Fernie! Crap, something happened!” Lena ran into the room in a hurry. “Fern, have you seen the news? Your fan splashed acid onto Eugene Newton! However, his secretary shielded him. He’s completely fine,” Lena said. The tone of her voice revealed her disappointment when she said the last sentence. Eugene was way too lucky. “I saw it,” Fern said. Her gaze was still fixed on the iPad in her hands. “You know about it already? Sigh… How can this be? It would’ve been fine if he had gotten splashed with the acid, but his innocent secretary is the one suffering from all the injuries now. Have you seen what the netizens are commenting? They said that he must be blessed by the heavens to have a secretary like her by his side. I wonder what was on the secretary’s mind. Why would she shield such a scumbag from acid? Isn’t her life ruin
Fern did not expect Jeremy’s assistant to have recorded the video under his orders! He immediately thought of the future consequences after seeing Eugene trying to force himself on her and calmly carried out all these preparations before taking action to help her.Jeremy suddenly felt like a stranger to her. He was not as simple as he seemed to be. Of course, he had mentioned to her that he had been in the entertainment industry for such a long time. That was why he always prepared himself before doing anything. Take this incident, for instance. If he had not asked his assistant to record the entire incident, nobody would believe them no matter how much they tried to explain themselves.She lowered her eyes and chuckled. “It seems like there’s a lot that I need to learn from you if I want to survive in this industry.”“If you have any questions, I’ll teach you everything. That’s why I think that it’s best for you to sign a contract with my agency.” He was still insistent on t
“She was splashed with highly concentrated acid. That’s why… there are burns on her skin. We’ve tried our best to treat her wounds, but even if the wounds recover in the future, they’ll still leave scars.” His words implied that Sydney had been badly wounded this time around. The areas of skin that had been splashed with acid were ruined.Eugene’s gaze darkened as his handsome features hardened. He lowered his head to look at Sydney. He was about to ask the doctor something else when Sydney suddenly grabbed his sleeve and cried out sorrowfully. “President Eugene, my face is ruined… How can I go out and meet other people now? I… I don’t want to live anymore…” She was in despair right now. She looked hideous. She would never be compatible with him, and she would not even have the right to become his secretary after this. “What nonsense are you talking about? Cosmetic surgery is extremely advanced nowadays. I’ll hire the best doctor for you. Your face will definitely be fixed.”
Fern watched as Eugene carefully brought Sydney to the ward. She had seen this gentle expression on his face before, but years had passed since then. Back then, they were still in university.Her gaze darkened as she pursed her lips mockingly. Perhaps it was a good thing that he had another woman by his side.When she left the hospital together with Jeremy, the media reporters, who had been crouching by the side, immediately crowded around them.“Are both of you here to visit the patient? Can you tell us about the patient’s condition?” Fern had to give a public statement. Although her fan hurting someone else had nothing to do with her, this news would affect her as well.“After the doctor’s emergency rescue, the patient is in stable condition. I’ll pay for all her treatment fees,” Fern said.“Do you mean that you’re going to pay for what your fan did? I heard that he wanted to stand up for you by splashing acid on Eugene Newton, but nothing happened to him at all. Don’t you fee
