Chapter 43
Liam called Olivia, and it was still Susan who answered. She said that Olivia was conducting a very important experiment and wouldn’t be out for a while, so she couldn’t disturb Olivia.
When Amelia heard this, she subconsciously frowned and said unhappily, “Olivia is really getting more and more insensible! What experiment is so important? Is it more important than seeing her family? Go in directly and ask her to come back.”
Having been a rich lady for many years, Amelia was used to instructing others. Since Susan was Olivia’s life assistant, Amelia felt that she was a servant who could be ordered around at will.
Susan hesitated.
Liam knew a little more about the laboratory. He was different from Amelia, who had been raised in a rich family for decades and only knew how to enjoy her life every day. He knew that a laboratory at Ember University was built for over 20 million dollars or even a few billion dollars.
Moreover, it was not just the price. Many experimental products could not be bought with money.
More importantly, something like an experiment could cause safety accidents if one was not careful. If there was sulfuric acid or an explosion, one would be dead.
Therefore, he asked, “Is it a very important experiment?”
Susan did not know much about this, but she asked the students around her and replied, “Yes, it’s very important. I heard from the students here that some substances have a time limit. They change in the air in a few seconds. If we don’t observe them in time, we won’t be able to find them later.”Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Upon hearing this, Liam became nervous and quickly said, “Then don’t call her. When Olivia comes out, ask her to go home. Tell her that Amy is back.”
“Alright,” Susan replied cheerfully. “I’ll tell Olivia as soon as she comes out.”
After hanging up, Liam looked at Amy.
Amy smiled. There was no displeasure on her face. Instead, she was completely happy. “I didn’t expect Olivia to be so amazing.”
All these years, Amy had thought of many possibilities regarding Olivia’s future. The worst outcome would be to be sold to a remote village as a child bride. The best outcome would be to be adopted by a kind couple and live a peaceful and happy life.
However, she did not expect Olivia to be better than she had imagined. She was indeed the daughter of the Taylor family. She was outstanding to the core.
All these years, in order to pray for Olivia’s safety, Amy had done many good deeds and donated a lot of money to the poor mountainous areas. She had a glimmer of hope. As long as she donated more, Olivia might be able to use any sum.
Now that she had found Olivia and Olivia was living such a good life and was so outstanding, Amy would not care about such a small matter as her not being able to come back in time.
“Perfect. I’m tired too. I won’t eat lunch. I’ll go upstairs and sleep for a while. We’ll talk when Olivia comes back tonight.” As she spoke, Amy got up. Before she left, she was still worried and reminded them, “Dad, don’t rush Olivia. I heard that safety is the most important thing in an experiment. Don’t disturb her mind. It’s fine if something goes wrong. The key is not to hurt her.”
“Got it.” Liam nodded.
The servant quickly led Amy and Yvonne upstairs.
Liam watched them go up before turning to Amelia.
Just now, there was an outsider like Yvonne around, so he didn’t embarrass Amelia. Now that Yvonne had gone upstairs, he reprimanded Amelia mercilessly, “Have you become stupid from staying at home? How dare you spout nonsense!”
The head of the family must be wise. Liam was a generous head. He rarely said anything harsh to Amelia, his daughter–in–law. This was the first time he had spoken so harshly.
Amelia was dumbfounded. She looked at Liam in shock.
Liam did not want to reprimand her. It was just that she was getting more and more overboard. She was no longer young. It was fine if she was getting stupider and stupider, but she did not even have the heart of a loving mother.
“In the future, don’t get involved in Olivia’s matters. I’m not asking you to be fair. I just hope that you won’t drag Olivia down.”
Upon hearing this, Amelia’s face turned red.
Amy and Yvonne weren’t around, but there were still so many servants in the house. There was also the junior, Emma. Liam didn’t show her respect at all and reprimanded her directly. She couldn’t be more embarrassed! “Dad, why am I dragging Olivia down? I was just asking. Shouldn’t she return home immediately when Amy is back? What experiment is more important than Amy?”
Upon hearing this, Liam looked up at her with disappointment in his eyes. “Even Amy knows that safety is the most important thing in an experiment. As a mother, you only care about your own face and don’t care about Olivia at all.”
“What danger can there be in an experiment?” Amelia subconsciously retorted. “Isn’t she a biology student? She’s just observing the leaves and extracting microorganisms. What danger can there be?”
Liam closed his eyes and was extremely disappointed. “I won’t talk to you about this. Don’t interfere in Olivia’s matters in the future. Since you didn’t raise her and don’t plan to give her your shares, don’t get involved in her matters.”
Share?
Amelia’s expression suddenly changed. She thought that Liam was eyeing the Green family’s shares and immediately said, “The Green family’s shares are to be reserved for Emma.” Olivia already had the Taylor family’s shares and Emma still had nothing. Amelia had to plan for Emma.
“That’s enough.” Liam waved his hand impatiently. “Who cares? I’m just telling you not to get involved in Olivia’s business.”
If she interfered, she had to give her shares to Olivia!
Amelia did not dare to care. Anyway, Olivia was not close to her. Since Liam asked her not to get involved, so be it.
Amelia stood up and led Emma upstairs.
When they were far away, Liam suddenly became mad and threw the pillow on the sofa at Samuel. “It’s all your fault!”
Samuel knew that he was indeed guilty according to Emma’s matter. No legitimate daughter should give her shares to the mistress‘ daughter.
However, Emma was also the Taylor family’s daughter. They were both the Taylor family’s daughters. Olivia had shares, but Emma didn’t. Moreover, Emma was so obedient and filial.
Sometimes, Samuel would be glad that he lost Olivia back then. Otherwise, Emma would not have returned to the Taylor family.
Samuel straightened his neck. “If you also gave Emma shares, Amelia wouldn’t go so far!”
“Get lost!” Liam was so angry that his neck turned red.
In the bedroom on the second floor, Emma was comforting Amelia and occasionally teasing Amelia.
“Sweetie.” Amelia was amused by her. She pinched Emma’s soft face and sighed in her heart. Emma was still the most considerate. Raised outside, Olivia was just so indifferent.
She didn’t intend to care about Olivia anymore. So be it.
It wasn’t that she didn’t care about Olivia, but that Olivia didn’t care.
Amelia was also unwilling to use her warm side to face Olivia’s apathetic side.
After making Amelia laugh, Emma heaved a sigh of relief. She leaned against Amelia and said, “It’s all my fault. I misunderstood Olivia and thought that she was related to Ryan.”
“It’s not your fault.” Amelia was angry when she heard this. To think that her heart ached for Olivia for a long while. She thought that Olivia was a young lady with only beauty and no background, so Olivia became a mistress. In the end, Olivia was very powerful.
Olivia looked weak, but she actually had another identity and deliberately hid it from them.
It was better not to have such a hidden daughter who didn’t open her heart to her mother.
“In the future, stay away from her,” Amelia warned. “You’re innocent and pampered. You don’t have so many schemes in your head. But a girl raised outside is different. She has a lot of thoughts. Perhaps she caused the car crush on purpose this time. Otherwise, why didn’t she explain clearly at that time and let you misunderstand?”
Amelia disliked Olivia more and more. She might have a motherly heart before. However, after being reprimanded by Liam downstairs, she was furious. She no longer had any love for Olivia, only disgust.
It was all because of Olivia that she had embarrassed herself in front of the servants.
