Chapter 231
Mia’s clothes were a little wrinkled, so she needed to change. Fortunately, she had brought spare clothes, so at least she would not embarrass herself.
After changing her clothes, she sat on the sofa in a daze.
Sensing that Mia was in a bad mood, Olivia tilted her head to look at her. and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Mia shook her head and bit her lip as she looked at Olivia. “Olivia, you…”
“Yeah?” Olivia glanced sideways.
Thinking of the scene of David being pulled out by the male attendant, Mia felt a little sympathetic. She sighed and said in a low voice, “That David looks young. He seems to have been tricked by someone. That’s why he barged in and said those nasty things.”
Mia paused for a moment and looked at Olivia curiously. “Olivia, you… really have nothing to do with the Taylor family in Evervale?”
Olivia nodded with a calm expression.
“Not anymore.”
“How could one make such a mistake?” Mia frowned. “That David must have been angry because she thought you were his sister.”
“It’s not just that.” Olivia sat on the sofa with a cold expression. “He’s being manipulated.”
“What?” Mia was surprised.
David, who was hiding in the bathroom, also clenched his fists.
Olivia’s eyes were indifferent. “The truth he knows is obtained from somewhere else. It’s not accurate. Many things are wrong. First of all, Samuel and Amelia don’t just want to apologize to me. They really plan to use public opinion to pressure me. They just didn’t have the time to use it.
“I don’t know who told him the information, but it’s not hard to guess. It’s either Emma or Yvonne. He was just instigated.”
Mia was stunned. “Then why didn’t you explain and tell him the truth?” Olivia’s expression did not change at all. She only raised her eyebrows slightly and asked calmly, “Why should I tell him the truth?”

Olivia lowered her gaze. “You’re the person I care about, so I’ll explain it to you. But who is he? He’s just an irrelevant person. Telling him the truth, teaching him, guiding him, and pointing out who are the people. who have ulterior motives around him, are his parents‘ responsibility, hist elder brother’s and sister’s responsibility.
“When he was my brother, I was willing to teach him. I was willing to nurse him back to health and point out the abnormalities of his bad. temper.
“But he’s not anymore. Not only that, he even has ill intentions toward me. Why should I do anything unnecessary?”
Olivia had never been an unconditionally soft–hearted person. She was only kind to some people.
There was a line drawn in her heart. The inside and the outside of the line divided the people she cared about and the unimportant people crystal clear.
When David was inside the line she drew, she would be sad because of some of his words, but it was only based on the fact that she cared about. him.
Now, David had been moved out of the line. To her, he was just an insignificant, slightly familiar stranger.
Why would she spend so much effort to teach him and correct him?
If it was a misunderstanding, so be it. If he was deceived, so be it. If he could not differentiate between sincerity and hypocrisy, so be it. If he was hot–tempered, so be it.
What did it have to do with her?
There were so many muddle–headed people in the world. She was not a saint and did not have the habit of being a teacher to others.
With that, Olivia’s gaze swept across the bathroom door subtly. Then, she stood up and said softly, “Let’s go.”
A long time passed after Olivia and Mia had left, but David remained where he was, motionless.
It was as if his body had been thrown into an icehouse. All the blood in his body was frozen and then turned into ice blades that twisted in his flesh.
It was so painful that his teeth chattered.

“David, what’s wrong?” Athene nudged him.
David was over 5 feet and 10 inches tall, yet he was as light as a feather right now. Athene only poked him lightly, yet he staggered.
He looked up blankly and glanced at Athene. Then, he quickly lowered. his head, opened the door, and left.
The first thing David did after leaving Duke Devonstern’s mansion was to call Amelia.
“Mom, tell me the truth. Are you and Dad planning to use public opinion to force Olivia to compromise?”
Amelia was not a very shrewd person. When she heard her son’s question, she subconsciously became nervous. “David, how did you know?”
“Hehe…” David laughed at himself.
He felt that he was really f*cking stupid and deserved it!
He continued, “What about Emma? Does she know?”
Before Amelia could reply, David added, “Mom, don’t lie to me. If you lie to me, I won’t believe you for the rest of my life.”
Amelia was silent. After a while, she said with difficulty, “The three of us discussed it together.”
David understood. He raised his hand and pulled his hair. “So, you guys wanted to force Olivia to do something, but you failed. Then, you were reported by her. Emma deliberately vagued the main point and misled me to find Olivia to settle the score?”
“David?” Amelia frowned. “How can you say that about your sister? Olivia reported her. It’s a fact that she’s going to jail. So what if you help her as her younger brother?”
“Help her?” David kicked the table, and there was a loud bang.
On the other end of the line, Amelia was shocked. “David, what’s wrong?” “What’s wrong?” David was so furious that he laughed. “Would I not have helped her if she told me the truth? Why lie to me and hide key information? Do you think it’s funny to see me run to Olivia and yell like a clown?
“Why can’t you make it clear? Is it fun to mislead me? If Olivia was not in the wrong and she’s not a member of our family, I would have a more suitable way to communicate with her instead of…
