Chapter 277
Olivia turned around and saw Mrs. Jameson standing at the door with some supplements in her hand.
“Mrs. Jameson?”
“Ms. Larson.” She put the supplements on the table. “Ms. Jones, I heard you were hurt, so I brought some supplements to see you with.”
Zyla did not like the Jameson family, especially when she recalled how Rainie hit Olivia. They irritated her.
“Take it away! I don’t want supplements from you people.”
“This is just a small gift from us, Ms. Jones.”
As Zyla was about to retort again, Olivia stopped her and shook her head. Then, she looked at Mrs. Jameson. “M
Jameson, why don’t you tell me why you’re here this
time?”
Olivia had disliked Mrs. Jameson since the day she knelt before her in the garden.
Mrs. Jameson pursed her lips and said, “I’m sorry about what happened last time. Whether it was the time Rainie hurt you or the time I knelt before you in the garden, we overstepped our boundaries. I hope you can forgive me.”
Forgive?
Olivia said coldly, “Mrs. Jameson, you’re my elder, so it’s inappropriate for you to kneel in front of me, but I know you’re doing this because of your love for your daughter. So, I won’t blame you for it.
“But I can’t forgive Rainie for what she did. After all, she was trying to kill me.”
“Ms. Larson,” Mrs. Jameson said with a wry smile. “Rainie’s father knows about this, and he has punished her. He made her kneel and face the wall for a few hours.”
Zyla could bear it no longer and said, “Mrs. Jameson, Sis Liv was hurt once because she tried to save you, yet your family keeps hurting her. Don’t you feel sorry for what you’ve done?
“What’s more, that doesn’t mean Sis Liv should forgive Rainie no matter how you’ve punished her.”
Olivia could not forgive Rainie, but she did not want to disappoint this mother who was trying to apologize on her daughter’s behalf. Thus, she chose to remain silent.
Mrs. Jameson knew she was asking for too much, so she said, “I know it’s too much. to ask you to forgive me, Ms. Larson. I won’t mention it again.”
