Chapter 30: Questioning
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Olivia’s words lingered in Robert’s mind for a long time. Every word was like a feather that brushed past his heart, making him feel both ticklish and blissful. The feeling of the two of them touching each other was truly wonderful. A strange feeling arose spontaneously.
‘It’s a pity that you’re already married to him. You’re only a stepping stone to help me rise to power. Other than that, it’s meaningless.’
Tiffany was worried about Olivia’s appearance, so she brought her back to her villa on Wisteria Road. The house was a European-style building, and when she entered the house, it gave off an ancient feeling. It was decorated in a retro style, elegant and luxurious.
She called the maid over to help Olivia freshen up and help her sleep. As for herself, she stayed by her bedside for the entire night. She felt too guilty toward her cousin.
The morning sun was very bright, shining through the white curtains and onto the soft carpet. The air was also filled with the smell of sunlight.
Olivia rubbed her sleepy eyes. The light at this moment was somewhat blinding.
It took her a while to get a clear look at her surroundings. The entire room was a light pink color, completely matching her maiden heart. When she got up, she startled Tiffany, who was lying by the bed and waiting.
“Olivia, you’re awake? You drank too much last night and even knocked Robert down.”
At that moment, Tiffany had no make-up on. Although she was not as exquisite as before, she was still very beautiful.
Olivia was stunned. Robert? Wasn’t Brian back last night? Why did it become Robert? Could it be that the person yesterday was Robert!?
“Oh my God, what did I do!? No one saw it, right? Otherwise, people with evil intentions will make an issue out of this. How could I drink so much?”
‘Drank too much?’ Tiffany transformed into Detective Conan and began to analyze.
“First of all, Lina ordered alcohol that isn’t too strong and is suitable for girls to drink. Secondly, you didn’t drink much yesterday, and I drank almost all of the alcohol with Lina. Lastly, when the maid took care of you, she said that you seemed to have been drugged and that her sister had also experienced it.”
Olivia was rendered speechless.
Why was she always drugged? Wait a minute! She had only drunk the wine from Sophia’s cup yesterday. If she was drugged, it could only be her.
Anger burned in Olivia’s heart. Sophia schemed against her all the time, so if Olivia didn’t retaliate, it would feel that she was easy to bully.
Olivia got off the bed and prepared to wash up before heading to the office.
She brought Tiffany to visit the Garcia Corporation. Everyone in the company looked at her strangely. She quickly walked into her office only to find a striking newspaper on the table.
The title stung Olivia’s eyes. Tiffany quickly took out her phone to search, only to discover that the video from last night had been posted online. She could see everything clearly from that angle.
However, Tiffany had verified that there was no one yesterday. What was going on? When she thought about how Olivia had been drugged, it made sense. Someone had deliberately set Olivia up so that her and Robert’s adultery could be confirmed.
“I didn’t expect anyone to film it yesterday. When I saw you two, it was just you and Robert. There was no one else.”
How could Olivia not know what Tiffany was trying to explain? These people were the ones that had banded together to harm her in her previous life. This time, they were no exception.
“Cousin, don’t worry too much. Since they want to play, then we will play with them properly. It’s not the first or second time. It’s time to deal with them properly.”
When Tiffany saw Olivia like this, she felt that she was very unfamiliar. The rooms in the house were designed according to her preferences. Why did that naive and innocent person become so sharp? What exactly had she experienced to become like this?
If she knew about the family matters…
There were too many questions in Tiffany’s heart, but she decided to focus on the present and nodded solemnly.
There was no news from Brian at all.
Joseph looked coldly at Olivia, who was sitting in her office chair. He could not help but curse, “You wretched sl*t, you are ruining the reputation of our Garcia family. You are going to ruin our company! You are already a married woman, yet you are still acting intimately with other young men.”
Olivia had long heard of such abuses, but Tiffany was different. She opened her mouth in shock, and only then did Joseph recognize that this was the relative of his deceased wife. He was momentarily at a loss.
“Oh? Your Garcia family? Have you really forgotten what happened in the past? Since when did you become so arrogant and curse your own daughter like this? What kind of life have you been living all these years?”
Joseph panicked and quickly apologized. “It’s not like that. I only said those words out of anger.”
Tiffany looked coldly at the useless man who was nodding and bowing, and her eyes were filled with disgust.
“Why are you so angry? Don’t you know what your daughter is like? If you don’t figure out what’s going on, why are you scolding her with just a piece of tabloid news? It seems like the benefits brought by Eiffel have fattened your guts.”
Benefits? So this was the reason that people had constantly been sucking up to Joseph, and there were so many who gave him gifts during festive seasons. Although they did not have as much power as Brian, they were still a powerhouse in the fashion industry.
The most ridiculous thing was that this was something that they, the Garcia family members, did not know. They only thought that their father’s business had grown bigger and that people liked to interact with him.
“You’re really capable. How many things have you hidden from me all these years?”
In the face of Olivia’s questioning, Joseph couldn’t say a word. For example, the Garcia Corporation was Stacey Garcia’s dowry, and 1/3 of the family belonged to her. He didn’t dare to say anything now.
“Even though I’ve made so many mistakes, I still managed to raise you all these years. Now that you already have your own family, how can you cause such a mess? What should I do if the Ford family asks for an explanation?”
Olivia had been under the impression that he was worried about her marriage with Brian, but she did not expect that he was just afraid that the Ford family would find trouble with him. Olivia’s heart turned completely cold. She no longer had any hopes for this irresponsible father of hers.
“I’ll take care of my own matters. Instead of worrying about me, you’d better take care of your precious daughter. Persuade her to stay far away from me and stop trying to smear my reputation. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Her voice wasn’t loud, but it was very serious. This time, Olivia was not kidding. She couldn’t just sit still and wait for death, and she had to take the initiative to attack. Olivia started to contact the news outlet to inquire, but they refused to say anything.
When Olivia returned to the villa, Uncle Ford invited her to the second floor expressionlessly, saying that Brian had been waiting for a long time.
The moment she opened the door, the room was silent. There were many cigarette butts piled up on the floor.
Brian looked at Olivia coldly. “The last time was an accident, but what about this time? I hate betrayal the most. I got someone to investigate this video, and there’s no trace of it being fake. Are you really that impatient? I’ve only left for one night.”
