At that moment, Michael stretched his slender legs and enjoyed his beloved wife’s leg massage. Sophia lifted his legs onto her knees, on which she kneaded and rolled them, appearing to be working as his ‘nanny’.
Olivia silently cursed, What a busybody nanny! At the same time, she mediated the situation between Natasha and Michael with a smile. “Taylor, it’s my fault this time for making that bad plan. If you want to blame someone, please blame me. Don’t blame it on Natasha. She’s still young and naive after all.”
Trying hard to shoulder the blame, Olivia slickly attempted to find the point of balance when dealing with Natasha and Michael; she had to be on their good sides and try to matchmake them. “I know you’re angry and that I have done something wrong. Taylor, could you forgive me?”
As she spoke, she even tugged at his sleeve, pouting her lips to act cute. It was a pity that her looks were not born for those expressions, which resulted in an uncomfortable sight.
Unfortunately, Olivia and Natasha were determined to stay put until Michael finally talked to them. Then, Natasha pitifully bit her lower lip and almost sobbed. “Taylor, are you unwilling to forgive me? I’m sorry… I didn’t intend to upset you…”
Standing there firmly, she seemed to have come to a hard decision as she uttered, “Taylor, in order to be forgiven by you, I’m willing to do anything!”
She’s acting pitiful! Hah! Sophia was the most skilled at handling those ‘innocent cutie-pies’ who were acting pitifully. Thus, she blasted Natasha first. “Since you know that you’re in the wrong, why are you still standing here doing nothing? Because of you, Taylor is being criticized all over the Internet and he has lost quite an amount of fans. Everyone is saying that he uses women and abandons them, and that he’s an adulterous jerk. That’s all thanks to you!”
Turning to Olivia, Sophia snapped, “And you, Olivia, are you touched in the head? As Taylor’s cousin, you should have known that he’s married. Why would you have Natasha wear something that exposing like she’s a mistress and have her dance around him? What was your intention?”
Sophia didn’t stop there at all. “Did you both think that Taylor’s trending too much? That he’s too popular already? So that’s why you two decided to create a scandal to reduce his popularity? I’m begging you, Natasha, for Taylor’s future prospect, please leave and never show up in front of him again. Once someone takes a photo of you two and uploads it online, Taylor’s reputation will be damaged. Shoo, shoo! Stop standing here! Don’t you know what it means to keep a safe distance? If you do, just leave now!”
After Sophia’s long speech, Natasha’s face changed from beet red to a ghastly pale shade. No matter how angry she felt, she could not reveal her emotions. With much difficulty, she had to act in accordance to her socialite persona and maintain her dignity in front of her idol. Pouting and stomping, she urged, “Taylor, why aren’t you saying a thing?”
“My apologies. Your idol can’t speak to you now. Once he speaks to you, I’m sure you can imagine what the press would write for tomorrow’s news articles. It’s still a very sensitive time now. Taylor’s image as an idol has just recovered slightly, so it’s impossible for him to talk to you now. Your idol has truly forgiven you. You can really leave. If not, you’re going to create more trouble for him.”
As for Michael, he was still pretending to be fast asleep as if he could not sense the three women surrounding him. Exploding in anger, Olivia thought, Where is this ignorant b*tch from? Even if she’s going to act out, she should not stand in the way of Taylor marrying into wealth! Taylor must marry into the Mitchell Family; he has to lift the status of the entire Murray Family along with his marriage!
Natasha was the only daughter of the leader of the Mitchell Group. Although she was shy of eighteen, she already had a net worth of billions, a proof of Alex Mitchell’s love for his daughter.
“Watch your mouth, nanny! When your employers are talking, you have no right to interfere. Get lost!” Olivia kept her words sufficiently sharp, but not to the point of being rude, so that she wouldn’t be hated by Taylor and at the same time, so that he would drive Sophia away. Surprisingly, Sophia was unaffected at all. “My employers? My only employer is Taylor and he never asks me to shut up!”
