Chapter 624
The moment when Albert appeared, Olivia seemed to have grabbed onto her last life-saving straw.
Albert smiled faintly and said, “Miss Jones knew that you are engaged to Mr. Smith today, Miss Cruise. She specially asked me to send a gift to the two of you. Please accept it.”
Olivia nodded in a daze. Olivia hurriedly stood up and walked forward to accept the gift.
“What is it?”
“Since it’s from Miss Jones from Aureliana, it’s naturally not bad.”
“Miss Jones specially sent someone to deliver a gift. I think Miss Jones is still very concerned about Olivia.”
The surrounding discussions made Olivia gradually calm down from her panic.
Even if these photos were exposed and the Smith family was extremely dissatisfied with Olivia, they had no choice but to swallow their anger for the sake of Marina.
After all, the Smith family valued Olivia’s identity as Marina’s godd aughter the most.
As long as Olivia was Marina’s godd aughter, the Smith family would behave themselves in front of Olivia!
Under everyone’s envious gaze, Olivia slowly opened the box.
Inside the box was an emerald necklace with a hundred carats. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Each emerald was round and smooth, giving off a clear luster under the light.
The combination of diamonds and emeralds was luxurious but not lacking in elegance.
“I can tell this necklace is worth a fortune.”
“Miss Jones is so generous. I’m really envious of Miss Cruise.”
“Miss Cruise is really lucky to be accepted as Miss Jones’s godd aughter. Many people can’t have such a good chance.”
“Mr. Smith is lucky to be able to marry Miss Cruise.”
When Mrs. Smith heard this, her face alternated between gloomy and pale. Mrs. Smith snorted softly. “I would rather wish you were the lucky one.”
Mrs. Smith’s voice was neither loud nor soft. When it entered the Cruise family’s ears, they felt awkward.
“The gift has been delivered. I’ll take my leave first,” Albert said at the right time. “Miss Cruise, congratulations.”
As Albert left, the atmosphere fell into dead silence again.
Everyone looked at each other and secretly sized up the expressions of the Smith family and the Cruise family.
The Smith family’s expression was the most intriguing.
They clearly hated Olivia, but because of Olivia’s identity as Marina’s godd aughter, they couldn’t say anything. This feeling was as disgusting as swallowing a fly.
“Louis, Marina still cares about us,” Olivia said as she reached out and h**ked her arm around Louis’s hand.
However, just as Olivia’s fingertips touched the corner of Louis’s shirt, Louis avoided Olivia without a trace. “I still have something on. I’ll leave first.”
“Where are you going?” Olivia grabbed Louis’s hand. Olivia’s eyes were filled with panic. “This is our engagement ceremony. What should I do if you leave? You knew that Rachel hates me. She hates me for snat ching you away from her. You know that these are all her schemes to sow discord between us. She deliberately wants to destroy me…”
“If you don’t want others to know, you shouldn’t have done it!” Louis interrupted Olivia coldly. “If you didn’t do these things, how could she have caught you? Now that things have come to this, not only are you unrepentant, but you also want to play the blame game. Olivia, you really disappoint me!”
With that, Louis turned around and left without looking back.
When Richard saw Louis leave, Richard blocked Louis in a flash. “Louis, what do you mean by leaving Olivia here alone?”
Things had come to this, and they had already fooled themselves in front of so many people. If Louis left just like that, the Cruise family’s reputation would be completely destroyed.
Louis raised his eyes and looked at Richard indifferently. “Do you really think there’s a need to continue the engagement ceremony? You don’t find it embarrassing, but I do!”
“You…” Richard’s eyes widened in anger. “Then how can you leave Olivia alone here?”
How could Louis leave Olivia here alone…
This sentence made Louis involuntarily think of Rachel, whom he had abandoned at the wedding ceremony back then.
At that time, Rachel had tried her best to persuade Louis to stay, but in the end, Louis still chose to abandon her.
Bitterness filled Louis’s heart without warning, making his stomach churn.
Louis took a deep breath and looked at Richard calmly. “Since we’ve already gotten married, we’re legally husband and wife.”
With that, Louis walked around Richard and left without looking back.
Seeing that Louis had left, the relatives of the Smith family had no need to stay here. They left in twos and threes.
Mrs. Smith and Mr. Smith left without even saying goodbye.

When Mrs. Smith passed by Olivia, she looked at Olivia deeply and sneered without hiding it. “The Cruise family is qui capable!”
With the Smith family leaving. Olivia became a complete joke.
Olivia finally couldn’t take it anymore and pushed down the champagne tower in front of her. “Rachel, this bit*h! Bit**h!”
Even Olivia’s exquisite and flawless makeup could not hide her twisted and ferocious expression.
Olivia gritted her teeth tightly and wished she could bite off Rachel’s throat and drink her blood.
Olivia’s fingers gripped the table tightly, and her nails scratched the table with a harsh sound.
“Olivia, what’s going on?” Bertha walked forward and grabbed Olivia’s arm. Bertha was no longer as gentle as before, and her expression was abnormally stern. “When did you get pregnant? Who’s the father of the child? Where is the child now?”
Olivia’s head was buzzing. The anger that Olivia had suppressed in her heart was jumping up and down, but she had nowhere to vent it.
When Olivia heard Bertha’s series of questions, impatience and frustration appeared in her eyes. “I don’t know! I don’t know!”
“How can you not know?” Bertha’s eyes turned cold inch by inch. “Tell me what you’ve experienced overseas all these years!”
“I said I don’t know!” Olivia finally couldn’t take it anymore and pushed Bertha away. “Is there any point in asking me this now? It has already happened, and the photos have already been exposed! What should have happened has already happened. Now that Louis’s attitude toward me is so cold, what can you change even if you know?”
The empty venue was filled with Olivia’s hysterical shouts. “You can’t change anything!”
“Even if we can’t change anything, we can’t let Rachel live happily,” At this moment, Richard, who had always been silent,
said.
Richard took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it up. He took a deep puff and his eyes flickered with a sinister and cold light. “Rachel will be a big problem for you sooner or later!”
When Olivia heard this, her eyebrows twitched fiercely. After hesitating for a while, Olivia said carefully, “Dad, you want
to…”
The answer had already jumped out of Olivia’s mind, but she did not dare to say it out loud.
Richard looked at Olivia and said calmly, “Eliminate the root of the problem and prevent future troubles!”
When Olivia heard Richard’s words, her heart ski pped a beat, but her eyes flickered with excitement.
