Chapter 641
Olivia was prepared for the worst. She was only there to introduce herself to Janice,
If Janice didn’t like her, she would just leave.
Before Janice could speak, a familiar voice said, “Ms. Procter, has Ethan returned?”
A familiar figure appeared from the corner of the second floor. It was Nikdd, who they had met in Arlandia not long ago.
Ethan could feel goosebumps all over his b*dy when he heard Nildd’s voice. His expression turned cold.
“What are you doing here?”
Nikki quickly walked to Janice’s side and held her hand tenderly,
She said, “Ethan, I have been keeping Ms. Procter company these past two years.”
Olivia finally understood why she had been so cocky. So she had been currying favor with Janice. Nikki’s trump card was
Ethan’s mother.
What a plot twist.
Olivia didn’t feel jealous at all. She was still trying to guess what else Nikk had up her sleeve.
She felt relieved that she had already eaten at the airport. Or else, she would probably have to starve now.
Olivia didn’t try to start anything. She just waited silently for the scenario to unfold. Was Janice going to tell her that her social standing wasn’t on par with Ethan?
Olivia rubbed her chin and wondered how Janice would react if she just didn’t care about what Janice had to say.
Nikki looked at Olivia smugly, but things didn’t go as she had anticipated.
Janice glanced at Ethan, and then her gaze fell on Olivia for a good moment.
Janice broke the heavy silence. “Let’s eat. The food is getting cold.”
Nikki was disappointed. She thought Janice would side with her since she had taken good care of her for the past two years.
On second thought, it was still carly.
Janice had an image to uphold. Nikki realized she had to give it time. She couldn’t afford to rush things along.
Nikki quickly got over her emotions and put on a virtuous act. She said, “Ms. Procter, I’ll help in the kitchen.”
Olivia watched as Nikki rushed toward her. When Nikki ran past Olivia, she even bumped into her. It was apparent she was provoking Olivia.
Janice descended the stairs slowly. Her movement was elegant.
Olivia stared at her as she walked. She realized that sometimes people do get bewitched by beauty.
If she were a man, she would love a woman like Janice to pieces.
Olivia wondered how pretty Kenneth Miller’s other woman had to be to make him give up on Janice.
As Olivia was deep in thought, Janice approached her and asked, “Are you not going to help in the kitchen?”
Janice’s tone wasn’t demanding. It was casual, like how someone’s tone would be when they asked about the weather.
Olivia knew that Janice didn’t like her, so she didn’t try to win Janice’s favor.
If Janice disliked her, there was nothing she could do that would change her mind.
So, Olivia didn’t even want to put up an appearance.
She said nonchalantly, “The Miller household has plenty of malds. Why would I need to help? They are paid to do that.”
Olivia thought Janice would be angered by her reply, but Janice remained expressionless.
She sneered lightly and said to Ethan, “Your wife is an interesting one.”
Olivia was taken aback. She didn’t know what Janice meant by that.
It seems Ethan only ever married Olivia to take revenge for what happened to his little sister. While Olivia is plagued by her sickness, he holds her chin and says coldly, “This is what your family owes me.” Now, she has no family and no future.
Her father becomes comatose after a car accident, leaving her with nothing to live for. Thus, she hurls herself from a building. “The life my family owes will now be repaid.” At this, Ethan, who’s usually calm, panics while begging for Olivia to come back as if he’s in a state of frenzy …
