Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 52

Chapter 51

The long–overdue class gathering was merry. Everly was a social butterfly. She managed to make conversations with almost anyone at the event. The attendees were more shocked to see Olivia.

A lot of her classmates went up to her and asked, “Olivia, I heard you’re married. Why didn’t you invite us to your Are we not good enough for you?”

wedding?

Before Olivia could say a word, a woman interjected with a shrill voice, “It’s not that we’re not good enough for her. It’s the other way around, isn’t it? She probably hid from us because her family went bankrupt.”

The woman was Calista Davies, who saw Olivia as her archenemy. Back in the day, the Davieses were not as wealthy as the Fordhams. So Calista always ranked second to Olivia in whatever she did. She should have been the wealthy, popular girl in school, but her spark went out when she was next to Olivia. That was the reason behind her vengeful attitude.

Now that the Fordhams went bankrupt, Calista would not miss the opportunity to humiliate Olivia.

As the class president, Calvin Atkins immediately came up to mediate. “Calista, that’s a bit harsh. Everyone goes through ups and downs in life. There’s no need to rub salt into the wound. It’s been a while since we met up. Let’s not spoil the fun.”

Calista rolled her eyes at Calvin, but out of respect for him, she dropped the topic. “Fine, I’ll drop it. But isn’t it kind of shameless of her to skip all our gatherings over the years only to show up now for a share of the pie?”

“What share? I thought this was a classmate gathering.” Olivia looked confused.

“Are you faking it, or do you really not know? Everyone came to this event to get in on the Oakland Hospital project.”
