Chapter 39: Chapter 39

Chapter 39 Illegitimate Son North continued, “Uncle Eugene is quite understanding.”

At this point, Olivia reckoned that North would never understand what she was trying to get at. Instead of explaining to him, she held his hand and walked him toward his room. “Look at you. What I’m trying to say is that there’s no possibility between him and me, so please save your energy on that. Why did you even address his grandpa as Great-grandpa?”

North responded calmly, “I did that entirely for Nathan. If I were to address him as grandpa, that would make me Nathan’s uncle.”

Olivia was rendered speechless.

Who taught this kid these things?

The next day, when Olivia got up, it was already 7 AM. Even though she did not think that she had too much alcohol last night, it still affected her routine when she realized she missed her 6 AM alarm.

Perhaps she did not miss it; she might have heard it and subconsciously snoozed it.

Nonetheless, she got up late.

So, she quickly woke North up and made him breakfast. Sending her boy to school today was like a battle.

Finally, they made it to school. However, when they arrived at the school, no teachers were seen but an opened gate.

It was fortunate that there was a plump kid who was also late today. While that kid was running toward the gate, he ran into North who was about to turn around and bid her goodbye.

Nevertheless, North was not hurt; he merely took a step back while the other kid fell to the ground.

Eventually, he could not get up no matter how hard he tried. Kicking his legs in a fit, he was shouting about how his butt was hurting and that he did not want to go to school anymore.

Olivia turned around and just as she was about to help him up, a chubby middle-aged woman rushed over and pushed North.

“Why did you knock into him?”

As a kid, there was no way North could resist that force. Alas, he fell to the ground.

Olivia’s face changed completely. She let go of the other kid who was still on the ground and tugged at that woman. “How could you push a child?”

That lady fiercely looked up, and when she looked at Olivia with her angry eyes, she was instantly stunned for an instant before coming back to her senses. “It’s you?”

Olivia took a deep breath. She did not expect to bump into Hugo’s mother—Florence Horner!

Is that kid... Hugo and Anna’s son?

Olivia let go of Florence before walking up to North and helping him up. “North, are you okay?”

North shook his head. “I’m fine.”

Olivia directed, “Go in then. Don’t be late.”

She did not want her son to know about what happened a few years ago.

At this moment, Florence walked up and grabbed North. “Where do you think you’re going? You knocked into my grandson—

shouldn’t you apologize before leaving?”

Olivia looked at her with a scowl and growled, “It was your grandson who knocked into my son and fell. Not just that, but you pushed my son without knowing what happened. You should be the one apologizing!”

Florence did not give in. “What’re you talking about? If my grandson knocked into him, why would he fall?”

Olivia still looked angry. “Why don’t you ask your grandson about what happened? You shouldn’t blame this on my son!”

Florence quickly looked at her grandson who was still on the ground and grabbed North by his arm. “I don’t care. Your son has to apologize to my grandson today. Otherwise, you aren’t going anywhere.”

Olivia had somewhat lost it. Just as she thought that Florence was elderly so she better let it slide, Florence did not seem to be going easy on her.

Without any words, she forcefully gripped Florence by her arm, which caused Florence much pain. In the end, Florence had to let go of North. Being agitated, Florence pushed her with another hand.

“Ah... Let go of me!”

Olivia looked callous. “Apologize to my son!”

Florence shot North a disapproving look. “Me? That’s a joke, isn’t it? Why should I apologize to the b*stard son of a beggar? Let go of me or I’m calling the police.”
