Chapter 1002 I Believe You, But
Olivia tried to persuade George, "Calm down! Please hear him out!"
George glanced at Eugene only to see North and Shannon standing protectively in front of Eugene. It's bad enough
that Olivia is protecting Eugene. I can't believe North is protecting him too. I guess he really is that b*stard's son.
He did not know for a time whether he was disappointed or sad. Hence, he simply sat motionless on the couch.
Eugene walked over and took a seat opposite George. "This is a misunderstanding. I brought Shannon here today to
explain the situation to Olivia. Azalea is the princess of Nambahd. When I was wounded by a gunshot six years ago,
Azalea was the one who saved me. Therefore, I simply could not ignore her circumstances when she came to me
for help recently. That's also the reason why I arranged for Shannon to be brought back. I wanted to prevent an
incident similar to what happened today. However, what actually happened today was different from what was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtreported online. The three of us were together the entire time. If you don't believe me, you can ask Shannon."
George sneered, "She is your subordinate. Wouldn't she say whatever you want her to say?"
Shannon interjected, "Mr. Nolan cares about Mrs. Nolan a great deal. Although he received more than a dozen
phone calls inquiring about the incident this morning, he patiently explained to each person that the story posted
online was fake and that he was already taking measures to handle the situation. If he did not care for her, then
why would his friends and family be so worried and concerned about her feelings?"
George huffed, "What does that prove? It simply indicates that it's not the right time for him to reveal his cards yet."
Shannon protested, "It's really not what you think. In the picture where Azalea was hugging Mr. Nolan, Azalea was
sexually harassed and beaten when we were at a restaurant. She most likely hugged Mr. Nolan out of fear, but he
immediately pushed her away. The rest is pure nonsense. I was with them the entire time. Here, take a look at
this..."
She hastily whisked out her phone and efficiently searched for the article regarding the incident. "Mrs. Nolan, please
take a look at this picture. This is my hand. Also, can you see the restaurant in the background of this picture?
These are the shattered plates that broke when the men shoved Azalea to the ground. It's just that they only
cropped out a certain part of the picture. There's no doubt that their actions are intentional. They are deliberately
creating a scandal by reporting the situation out of the proper context to garner attention from the public. Mrs.
Nolan, please don't believe the nonsense reported online."
Olivia looked at the pictures. To be honest, she did not believe the articles posted online in the first place. It was just
that she needed to provide George with a reasonable explanation for the incident, so she chose to listen in on their
entire conversation quietly.
When Eugene saw that Olivia hadn't said a word the entire time, he hurriedly reassured her, "Olivia, Shannon is
telling the truth. Please believe me. I did not do anything to betray your trust"
She nodded. "I know. I also believe that Azalea was the one who threw herself into your arms. But, you can't deny
that you have given her the opportunity for her to succeed this time. Stop relying on my trust in you to act

or the resources to explain the situation on your behalf. I hope to never see such articles again in the future. Do you
understand? Disappointment is accumulated little by little over time!"
Her words sent a shiver of fear through his heart. Thus, he instinctively got up from the couch and approached her.
"I'm sorry, Olivia. It's all my fault. I never imagined that she would throw herself at me, so I couldn't react in time.
Please rest assured, I will reduce my contact with her in the future."
Still, she merely responded blandly, "I'm not that unreasonable. Besides, it's not as if I disallow you from having any
contact with the opposite sex. You owe her a debt, so you want to repay her for her help all those years ago. I can
understand your feelings. But, you shouldn't have allowed the situation to explode online. It doesn't matter if you
replace me with a new girlfriend. However, I still need to go to work while North has to go to school under such
circumstances. We still have our daily lives to return to and we do not need any unwanted criticism and judgment
from the public, making our lives so difficult that even leaving the house is a nightmare and a half."
