Chapter 785

Hayden frowned upon hearing that. "What happened to the two of you?"

Alex glanced at Eugene. "Didn't Eugene explain the situation to you guys? Mrs. Nolan was nearly assassinated, and

Jewel and I were on the scene coincidentally, so we fought off the assassins. The three of us have varying degrees

of wounds."

As soon as Hayden heard that, he gasped loudly before turning to look at Ellen. "Mrs. Nolan, are you hurt too? How

are you feeling?"

Ellen was busy explaining to Brian about the incident that day and as soon as she heard Hayden, she hurriedly

replied, "I'm fine. Alex and Jewel sustained much more serious injuries than I did. One of them had a concussion

and the other was slashed on the back. This was all because they wanted to save me…"

Meanwhile, Nicole pursed her lips and studied Eugene's expression furtively. What is he trying to do right now?

Penny's brows were also furrowed tightly. What does this mean? Don't tell me that I'm a suspect?

Eugene spoke to Olivia as soon as he came up the stairs before greeting the others, "That's enough, let them have

a rest. We can talk downstairs."

As such, Hayden followed Eugene down the stairs while still in confusion. For some reason, he felt anxious.

Evidently, Eugene had wanted him to see for his own eyes the wounds of the three of them before seeking justice

for them afterward.

At that moment, Nicole seemed dispirited and she had been in turmoil ever since Brian had sent his men to come

and get her.

On one hand, she tried to comfort herself that Eugene had also sent for Penny and Hayden too, so perhaps he had

some suspicions but without any concrete evidence. However, there was another nagging voice in her mind that

said, Eugene hasn't sent any men to keep an eye on Hayden and Penny. He held me captive only. This is proof that

Eugene already knows that I'm involved in this.

This doesn't make any sense at all because the assassins would never disclose information so easily. Even if the

assassins did disclose the information, they would not be able to access information about their employers too. As

such, if they didn't know anything about their employer, then how can they possibly link my involvement? What

went wrong exactly?

She was busy trying to figure out how much Eugene knew and she was unsure whether to admit or deny it

vehemently.

Meanwhile, Penny was stunned the entire time as she did not grasp why she was told to come over. She was unsure

about how Nicole was involved in the assasination attempt on Ellen somehow. As such, she remained silent and

followed the group up and down the stairs without questioning.

As they arrived downstairs, Hayden could not help asking, "What's wrong? Eugene, who sent the assassin?"

However, Eugene merely turned to look at Nicole and spoke coldly, "Do you still intend to keep denying things?"

At that moment, Hayden instantly turned to look at Nicole apprehensively.

Yet, she piped up indignantly, "Eugene, what do you mean by that? Do you suspect me?"

If this exact same conversation had happened yesterday, then perhaps Eugene would not be as unperturbed as he

was right now. Now that he knew that everyone was fine, he wanted to see her final, desperate look as she

struggled. He also wanted Hayden to witness this and give up on her.

Hayden persistently stands up for this woman, so I want him to see for his own eyes her true colors!

Eugene maintained a smile. "Are you saying that I'm mistaken and this has nothing to do with you?"

Nicole instantly argued, "I have nothing to do with this, of course! I don't even know why you've captured me."

He scoffed, "You never seem to learn your lesson, huh? I warned you before to behave yourself, otherwise, you'll

end up losing more than just your hair!"

Despite her anxiety, Nicole could only continue to deny things vehemently since she did not know how much

Eugene was aware about the truth.

She purposely put on a flustered and angry front. "You're being such a big bully! What did I do wrong? You accused

me wrongfully the last time and I didn't mention it to my parents because of our ongoing friendship. What else do

you want from me?"

Yet, Eugene sneered coldly, "You're quite bold with your words, huh? You must be so adept at lying that you've even

fallen for your own lies. Hayden's the only one who would be fooled by your cheap acting."
