Betrayal At The Altar

Chapter 600

After reading these messages, Olivia sat on the sofa in a daze.

At this moment, Bertha pushed open the door and walked in. Bertha noticed that Olivia looked a little embarrassed and could not help but frown. “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?” Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’m fine.” Olivia suddenly came back to her senses.

Olivia was just worried that Rachel would use David to target the Cruise family.

If David really wanted to deal with the Cruise family, the Cruise family stood no chance.

However, judging from the Tory family’s situation, Mr. Jones was indeed decisive and cold-blooded.

Olivia gripped her phone tightly as the uneasiness in her heart intensified.

“Drink this.” Bertha brought a bowl of black soup to Olivia.

A strong smell of herbal medicine mixed with a faint fishy smell made Olivia instinctively frown. Olivia covered her nose and shrank back. “What is this?”

“Don’t ask so much. In short, it’s something good for your body. Bertha said and stuffed the bowl of black soup into Olivia’s hand. “Drink it while it’s hot. The effect will be reduced when it’s cold.”

Olivia looked at the soup in front of her and instinctively felt disgusted. “Mom, what the hell is this?”

“I told you not to ask so much. The usually gentle Bertha looked at Olivia with a serious expression. “After all, I won’t harm you. Listen to me and drink now

Olivia looked at Bertha, and she drank it half-heartedly.

However, just as Olivia put down the bowl in her hand, she suddenly covered her mouth and rushed to the restroom.

In a short while, Olivia spat out all the soup she had just drunk.

“Mom, what the hell is this?” Olivia knelt in front of the toilet bowl weakly, her face slightly pale.

“It’s a good thing to help you consolidate your position in the Smith family.” Bertha walked to Olivia’s side with a glass of warm water. As the ancient saying goes, a mother rises because of her son. Now that you’ve seen the Smith family’s snobby true colors. If you marry into the Smith family just like that, you might suffer a lot. However, if you’re pregnant, it’ll be very different.”

Olivia slowly raised her hand and stroked her flat stomach. Olivia furrowed her brows imperceptibly, and a hint of seriousness flashed through the depths of her beautiful eyes.

“Think about it. Mr. Smith is old now. If you’re pregnant with Louis’s child, his family will treat you well. If you can get the shares under Old Mr. Smith’s name with the child, your status in the Smith family will be completely stabilized.”

Bertha held Olivia’s hand and said earnestly, “It’s a hard way to go to be above others. This thing tastes. bad, but good medicine is bitter. Even if you don’t want to drink it, you have to drink it, understand? Don’t forget how you slowly pulled Louis’s heart over and almost lost your life. You can’t let all your previous efforts go to waste now.”

Olivia looked up at Bertha, and her lips moved slightly. After hesitating for a long time, Olivia finally swallowed the words that were on the tips of her tongue. Olivia said indifferently, “I understand.”

Olivia could create a car accident and save Louis once to win Louis’s heart.

But Olivia couldn’t do this every time.

Moreover, the car accident at that time had far exceeded Olivia’s control. It almost cost her her life. Olivia did not dare to take the risk easily.

However, the way Louis jooked at Rachel tonight vaguely made Olivia feel that Louis’s heart was starting to waver again.

This was not a good thing for Olivia.

How could Olivia not know the benefits of a mother relying on her child? It was just that…

Olivia touched her flat stomach again and slowly lowered her eyes to hide the coldness in them.

“By the way, how’s Miss Jones?” Bertha suddenly changed the topic.

Olivia could not help but be stunned for a moment. After thinking for a moment, Olivia slowly said, “She accepted the item, but her attitude was ambiguous.”

“Does that mean she won’t come to your engagement party?” Bertha frowned slightly. The gentleness in her eyes suddenly changed into seriousness.

“She just said she’d come when she had time.”

“Are you really going to attend Miss Cruise’s engagement party?” The male assistant Albert’s well- defined fingers landed on Marina’s temple. He massaged Marina’s temples with moderate strength, sizing up the expression on Marina’s face from time to time to determine if he was using too much strength.

Marina’s lips curled into a mocking smile. “It’s already the greatest gift to her and the Cruise family that I’m willing to take her in as my g*ddaughter.”

How could Marina not know what the Cruise family was thinking?

The Cruise family just wanted to use Marina’s reputation to raise their status in Seaxas.

In this world, Marina was the one who made use of others. It was not up to others to make use of her.

Moreover, the Cruise family was useless.

Initially, Marina wanted to use Olivia to deal with Rachel. However, Marina did not expect Olivia to be a useless thing. Olivia was not Rachel’s match at all.

Instead, Marina got herself into trouble. In the end, Marina even had to bail Olivia out.

Fortunately, the Cruise family was still a little useful to Marina.

Otherwise, Marina would not even give Olivia a look without feeling stained.

“How’s the matter I asked you to do?” Marina waved her hand and raised an arm, signaling Albert to help. her up.

Albert walked forward slightly and pulled Marina up. He handed Marina the caviar on the table and said,” “Our people have been secretly buying the shares of the Cruise Group, but we found that there is another group of people buying it at the same time.”

“Another group of people?” Marina suddenly looked up at Albert.

Albert’s heart s*ipped a beat and he quickly explained, I’ve already sent people to investigate, but the other party’s whereabouts are hidden and our people can’t find them.”

Marina’s beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of contemplation. She held the spoon and slowly stirred the

caviar.

Suddenly, a meaningful smile appeared on Marina’s red lips. “Making such a big fuss over a woman. I didn’t expect the old man to make a mistake one day.”

In the entire Seaxas, Marina could not think of anyone else who could do this except for David.

“In the end, they are still too conceited. Now, they don’t even care about the old man and the others.”

Albert’s expression changed slightly. “But Mr. Jones has always been cautious and meticulous. He doesn’t look like a conceited person…”

Marina snorted without hiding anything. “He’s targeting the Cruise family for a woman, and now he’s even expelled the Tory family girl. I’m afraid that S****s’s people are already panicking. Moreover, he’s punishing the Tory family with so much force for Rachel. He’s helping Rachel vent her anger and pamper her! However, the old man isn’t out of his wits. The old man notices everything.”

“He knows the old man’s abilities and methods, but he still made such a big fuss. Isn’t he not taking the old man seriously?”

The old man was already suspicious of David staying in Seaxas. Now that this matter had happened, the old man would probably come personally soon.

At that time, Marina wanted to see how David would protect the little b*tch Rachel.
