Chapter 908 Long Time No See
“Are you talking to those two losers?” Jesper asked in a cold, mocking manner.
Olivia started to get anxious when she did not get the answer she expected. “W-Who are you? Why is Tom’s phone with you?”
“Whatever it is, you’re still a daughter of a prominent family, Ms. Jones. If it was revealed that you’ve done something so vicious, wouldn’t the Jones family be utterly humiliated?” the man continued.
“Are you threatening me?” she fumed.
“What do you expect? I hope that after what had happened, you will finally learn that the woman isn’t someone you can mess with. Only your bodyguards will be implicated since this is the first time it happened. However, if this were to happen again, you will definitely be implicated too.”
“You—”
Olivia’s face was pale. She wanted to continue to argue, but the man had ended the call the moment he finished speaking.
Fury burned within her as she listened to the beeping noise from her phone.
In her eyes, that woman was no different from a lowly and cheap ant. Olivia thought she could easily destroy her even if she had a face that could mislead everyone else. However, what had happened now was like a slap to her face
Nonetheless, this incident made her realize the reality.
There must be someone powerful behind this woman.
Olivia was in distress that she wasn’t able to teach that woman a lesson but was warned instead.
Jerry walked over to her and asked worriedly, “What’s wrong, Olivia? Why do you look sick?”
“It’s nothing.”
“Really?”
“Yes,” Olivia said as she looked up. Then, grabbing hold of Jerry’s arm, she said sternly, “Jerry, you’re the only son of the Jones family and my only brother. Some of the things I said may not be pleasant to hear, but it’s all for your own good. You’re finally an adult as of today. You must never be deceived by good-for-nothing women. The woman you’re going to marry in the future must be evenly matched with our family.”
Jerry knew that his sister still didn’t believe that he actually had an asthma attack, but he was too lazy to explain things again. He clasped his hands on her shoulders and said, “Don’t worry, Olivia. I won’t be deceived so easily.”
“Okay.”
After hearing his reassurance a few more times, Olivia was finally feeling a little better.
She had no idea why, but she couldn’t bring herself to like that woman even though she wasn’t such a narrow-minded person. It was as if they were both fated to be enemies to the point where there was no way of reconciling.
Back home, Emma said with a smile when she saw that Natalie had returned, “Welcome home, Ms. Nichols.”
“Mmm-hmm!” The latter nodded with a smile, then asked, “Where are the kids? Were they good today? Did they cause you any problems or did they bully you?”
Having been working as a housekeeper for so many years, this was the first time Emma had met such a nice lady or children of the house. Shaking her head, she quickly replied, “No, no. They were really good. Not only were they polite, but they also did most of the things themselves. I wanted to help them out, but they declined and said that they were worried they would tire me out. Not only are the kids beautiful, but they are also so obedient and well-behaved. It really is rare to see children like them.”
The corners of Natalie’s lips slowly tilted upward when she heard that her children were well-behaved. “Just tell me if anything happens, Emma.”
“Of course.”
“Where are they now?” she asked.
“They should be in the room in the south of the second floor.”
“All right. I’ll go check on them.”
Natalie made her way upstairs and knocked on the door once she reached the room Emma spoke of.
“Come in,” Franklin’s voice sounded from inside.
Pushing the door open, she found the five children huddled in front of the twenty-inch computer screen. As she entered, they turned to look in her direction in unison.
However, Natalie froze in her tracks when she saw the man on the screen.
God, can my fate get any more twisted?
Why did you have to make me walk in when the kids are having a call with Samuel?
