Chapter 116 Accusations among the Three
Hubert looked at Eugene and asked, "You just figured it out? Rebecca did this to me, and Elizabeth did that to him."
He added, "If you were there, you'd have some marks from Elizabeth too. Feeling left out?"
Eugene stayed quiet. Richard was right; Hubert was getting more twisted.
He frowned and asked, "What did you guys do to provoke them?"
Hubert and Richard must've done something to get beaten up.
Richard sighed. "We were just sitting and chatting, and they came over and beat us up. They even slapped Brenda and Hubert's girlfriend."
Hubert's face darkened. "Richard, if you can't talk properly, just shut up. Angela is my assistant, not my girlfriend. You deserved to be hit by Elizabeth."
Richard sneered, "Yeah, an assistant on your lap. Don't act like you didn't deserve it."
Eugene glared at Hubert. "Is it fun to mess with Rebecca?"
Hubert touched his bruised lip. "I wasn't messing with her."
What happened with Angela wasn't what Rebecca and the others thought. But now, he couldn't explain.
Eugene glanced at Angela, who looked pitiful and upset.
He sneered, "I'm not blind. Since my sister hit you, she's done chasing you. Don't go after her again."
Hubert didn't like that. "Could you give up on Elizabeth if I told you to?"
Eugene paused. "You really deserved to be hit."
Hubert raised an eyebrow. "If you were here, you wouldn't have escaped either, you jerk."
Eugene was speechless again.
Elizabeth even dared to hit Richard; if he had been there, he might've been beaten, too.
Then he remembered something.
He looked at Richard. "You asked me to restore the surveillance footage to sue Elizabeth and Rebecca?"
Richard leaned back on the sofa and admitted, "Yes."
Eugene couldn't hold back and punched Richard in the face. "You're really awful. Elizabeth is your sister, and you want to sue her? Do you have any humanity left? Rebecca hit Hubert; what does it have to do with you? You won't even let my sister go."
He never realized Richard was so ruthless.
He hated himself for once teaming up with Richard to hurt Elizabeth for his own selfish reasons.
Richard, unprepared and with a sore chest and stomach, got punched several times in the face by Eugene.
Brenda saw this and immediately rushed to hug Eugene's arm. "Eugene, stop hitting him. Elizabeth and Rebecca came out of nowhere and hit them first. They even planned it and deleted the surveillance footage. Don't misunderstand Richard."
Eugene, with his arms hugged, stopped hitting Richard.
Then, as if contaminated, he immediately shook off Brenda's hand and stepped back a few steps, distancing himself from her.
He said coldly, "Don't come near me," and warned, "Also, don't let me hear you badmouthing Elizabeth and Rebecca again."
Brenda looked at him in disbelief. "Eugene, you're bullying me too."
Hubert sneered, looking at Brenda flippantly. "How did he bully you? What did he do to you?"
Although he didn't like Elizabeth leading Rebecca astray, he disliked Brenda's weak demeanor even more.
She was just a plaything for the Clark brothers.
And she badmouthed Elizabeth and Rebecca in front of them. Did she think they were that stupid?
Eugene's face darkened, and he shot a cold glance at Hubert. "Shut up."
Hubert shrugged. "Just going by what she said."
Richard, in pain, sneered, "Eugene, why didn't you act all noble earlier? Think this will make Elizabeth notice you and get back together? Dream on. She can be ruthless to her own brother; what are you, an ex?"
Eugene's face hardened. "Whether she notices me or not is none of your business. Just stay out of Elizabeth and Rebecca's way, or I won't be polite."
He then looked at Hubert. "You too."
Hubert laughed. "You're really something, Eugene."
Eugene felt he couldn't deal with these two anymore. "Let's not contact each other unless it's important."
With that, he left, looking cold.
Hubert still smiled, but his eyes were icy. He turned to Richard. "I feel the same as Eugene. Let's forget about the investment too."
He stood up and left, with Angela quickly following, feeling heartbroken and embarrassed.
Richard spat out blood. "Two bastards."
In pain, he told an attendant, "Drive me to the hospital."
The attendant helped him up. "Yes, Mr. Clark!"
Another person supported Richard on the other side, helping him downstairs.
Others didn't know what had happened. 'What was going on today?'
They had come out for a drink, and the three of them ended up like this. But the other people had to admit, today's events were quite thrilling to watch.
They also left one after another, leaving a stunned Brenda.
She was furious that Richard just left without caring about her. Brenda felt her face burning even more, stomped her foot, and followed.
She needed to go to the hospital for a check-up too. Since she couldn't use surveillance footage and witnesses, she would get a medical examination and some ointment.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth and Rebecca were huddled together watching a phone, showing what had just happened on the second floor.
After returning to the apartment, Elizabeth had hacked into the surveillance to watch the follow-up.
After everyone left, she turned off the video on her phone.
She looked at Rebecca and said, "Looks like Hubert will come to explain he wasn't leading you on. What do you think?"
Hubert and Angela probably weren't in that kind of relationship. But Eugene and Brenda weren't either, and she still felt disgusted and couldn't forgive.
So no matter Hubert's reason for keeping Angela around, Rebecca was still disgusted and hurt.
If it were her, she wouldn't forgive or go back to the way things were, no matter the reason.
Just like Eugene's actions earlier, she wasn't moved but rather agreed with Richard.
To be honest, the mutual accusations among the three were quite entertaining.
Rebecca sneered, "I find him boring. No matter the reason, I won't get involved with him again."
Elizabeth smiled and asked, "What if he comes back to chase you? I think it's very likely."
Rebecca rolled her eyes. "Then I'll hit him every time I see him. After all, he said he likes being hit by me. How can I not fulfill such a masochistic request?"
Elizabeth gave her a thumbs up. "Nice!"
