Chapter 24: Suppressing the Garcia Corporation
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“What about the one in your womb? Is it okay?”
Olivia was at a loss for words. This Brian was really abnormal. She thought that he was concerned about her, but in the end, he was only concerned about the child in her womb. However, Brian being here was really quite a surprise to her.
“No,” Olivia answered that brainless question unhappily.
She was really afraid that Mia would inherit this brainless trait from this fellow. If that happened, the gains would not make up for the losses. She rubbed her belly and silently said in her heart, ‘Mia, you can’t be as brainless as him!’
Brian turned around and walked out. Looking at his back, he actually felt a little relieved. He was very touched and felt sorry for his suspicious behavior today.
When she arrived outside, Olivia could clearly see what was going on. A boundless azure sea surrounded her, and the word “dock” was written at the place where the ship had left. It felt like a peaceful time, and she almost fell in love with this place. Waves of sea breeze blew over, and it was slightly chilly.
Olivia subconsciously tightened her clothes, and her body felt like it was curled into a ball. Seeing this, Brian took off his suit and draped it over Olivia.
Paul’s face turned red upon seeing that.
When the police arrived, Derek and the others had already been subdued.
Brian asked the police to return. He would settle this matter himself and didn’t want the police to interfere. If there was a need, he would ask for their help.
Brian had always been a law-abiding citizen and had never caused any big trouble. After understanding the situation, he recorded a statement and ended the police activity before returning home.
Brian asked Paul to bring the three kidnappers back and lock them in the basement. He wanted to interrogate them personally. He then brought Olivia to the dock and hailed a cab back to the hospital.
Now, it was time to expose Sophia. Olivia was also very puzzled. The two of them were together, but she had never appeared from beginning to end when something had happened to her. This was somewhat unbelievable.
When she arrived at the hospital, Olivia walked toward Joseph’s ward. However, Hersha and her daughter were nowhere to be seen in the ward. When Olivia left, she bumped into her stepmother, who was preparing to visit Joseph. She only heard harsh words.
“Look at you, you’re really a jinx. You just caused your father to be hospitalized, and now my daughter fainted. I really don’t know why you’re here.”
Sophia had fainted? It seemed that this matter really had nothing to do with them.
Olivia didn’t want to make small talk with her stepmother. Just looking at her felt disgusting, so she naturally didn’t want to get into an argument.
“If it weren’t for you and your good daughter urging me to come, why would I be here? My good stepmother, you must be very tired. You have to take care of my father and your precious daughter. I won’t disturb you anymore.”
She coolly turned around and left, leaving Hersha, who was gnashing her teeth and stomping her feet behind her. Olivia felt much more at ease now. It was really satisfying to see Hersha not being able to pick on her.
“We’re leaving just like that?”
Brian looked at Olivia with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes. How could he let them off so easily? Sophia had actually done such a thing under his watch. He had to teach her a lesson so that she won’t do it again.
Brian asked Paul to send Olivia back to the villa while he went to the basement to interrogate Derek.
Even if he interrogated the guy, he did not get anything out of him. He hadn’t met the client before either. However, Olivia had more or less guessed Miss Smith’s identity. Moreover, there was only one Miss Smith who was being overbearing; there was no mistake about it.
Since Brian wanted to ask her personally, Olivia wanted to see how he would react to this. He had protected that b*tch Laura previously. If he continued to protect her this time, Olivia did not know how she would feel, but she definitely had a conflicted emotion.
Olivia hoped that Brian would protect her. She didn’t know why she had such thoughts. Could it be that she had fallen in love with him?
Olivia forcefully shook her head, wanting to push this terrifying thought to the back of her mind. How could that be possible? That person was annoying! How could she possibly fall in love with him!?
Looking at the scenery outside the car window, Olivia felt a myriad of emotions in her heart. She only wanted to live a peaceful and ordinary life with someone she loved.
Couples who were passionately in love on the streets were eating in various small shops, their faces brimming with happiness. These things might be something that Olivia would never experience in her lifetime.
The old man sitting beside the fountain looked at the stars in the sky while holding hands with the old lady, who smiled like a child as he whispered in her ear. The old man held the old lady’s hand, and the two of them left slowly with their backs hunched.
Olivia’s eyes followed the old man’s departure. Would she be able to live a life like this one day? She didn’t know, nor did she dare to think about it. This kind of life was just wishful thinking. In this life, she had carried too much hatred from her previous life.
Olivia rolled up the window and entered the villa. She was so tired that she fell asleep on the bed and soon fell into a sweet dreamland.
Sophia, who was lying on the hospital bed, was secretly delighted as she had effortlessly obtained $700,000. She wondered whether Brian had realized that she had participated in it. Seeing that he had not come to look for her, it should be fine.
Brian had left Derek at the entrance of the Public Security Bureau to be dealt with by the police. In his heart, he wanted to pay more attention to Olivia since someone wanted to cause her a miscarriage.
He couldn’t allow such a thing to happen again. He dialed Paul’s number and started reminding him. “We’ll suppress the Garcia Corporation tonight. We’ll do that until Olivia takes over the company. Also, pick a group of people to work at the company and assist her. Then pick a few skilled bodyguards to protect her. If anything happens…”
Paul did not wait for Brian to finish. “I understand. Don’t worry, boss. It’s getting late. Rest early.”
Only then did Brian feel much more at ease. Paul had followed him for more than ten years, so they were no longer like boss and subordinate. Brian had already treated him as a brother, but he had to trouble him so much today.
After some thought, he transferred a large sum of money to Paul’s account as a token of his appreciation. When he returned to the villa, he didn’t even notice the smile on the woman’s face.
A series of phone calls woke up Olivia, and she felt extremely comfortable. She felt something on her waist. It turned out that Brian had hugged her to sleep the entire night. Brian’s tired, sleeping face made Olivia very happy.
She took her phone and dialed.
“Oh no, Vice President! The Garcia Corporation is being suppressed for no reason. Please come to the company to take charge.”
An anxious female voice sounded from the other end of the phone, and Olivia instantly lost all sleepiness.
Brian was obviously woken up as well. He threw her phone aside and kissed the woman beside him.
Olivia felt a lack of oxygen in her brain and could barely breathe.
