Chapter 752
A week passed. Suddenly, the news of Dorothy getting engaged to Fabian had spread, and it was announced that they would hold their wedding at the Jasmine International Hotel in three days'time.
Even Ken was shocked by how fast it was happening.
When Ken ran over in a panic, Olivia and Zac were watering the plants leisurely in the garden.
"Have you seen the trending tweet?"
Zac nodded calmly. "Yeah."
"How are you so calm if you've seen it?"
Olivia did not know what had happened. She brought a cup of tea for Ken and said, "Ken, have some tea, and tell US calmly."
"Dorothy is getting married to Fabian!"
Olivia was shocked upon hearing that. She thought she misheard him so she asked, "What did you say? Dorothy is getting married to Fabian? When?”
Ken took the cup and downed the tea. Then, he nodded and replied, "You heard right. They will get married in three days."
Then, Olivia's phone rang.
"Mrs. Quinton, oh, no..."
Dorothy's voice sounded pleased and disdainful. "We will be sisters-in-law soon. You’re Mrs. Quinton, and so am I, so I can't call you that anymore. It'll sound like we're not close, don't you think?"
'She's provoking me!'
Olivia knew Dorothy called her to provoke her.
Thus, she lowered her voice and said, 'Too bad you got married to an illegitimate child. Even if you're Mrs. Quinton, you're still the wife of the illegitimate child."
"You!" Dorothy just wanted to fly into a rage, but she held herself back. " Whatever. I'm not as petty as you. Even though you don’t like me, we’re going to be relatives soon, and we'll be seeing each other quite often. So... you'll come to the wedding, right?"
Olivia wanted to say no, but she had to make sure to protect Zac's prestige.
Now, Zac and Fabian were still on good terms. If she did not go to the wedding, it would make Zac look petty.
"Yeah, of course! I'm not that petty. The illegitimate son is still the son, right?"
