Chapter 115 There’s Trouble With the Olsen Family
Hugh’s face tightened, his voice low and intense. “Grandfather, as long as you swear not to touch the Olsens, I’ll make sure everything falls into place.”
Harvey handed his cane to Logan and eased into his chair, signaling the end of the discussion.
Hugh left the study.
His car had barely cleared the gates when Megan stepped out from a parked vehicle, waving him down.
Months of subtle cosmetic work had sharpened her
features.
She was prettier now, almost sculpted like the polished influencers online.
After the car rolled to a stop, the rear window lowered.
Hugh frowned at her. “What are you doing here?”

“What do you want?” His voice was sharp and clipped.
Megan hesitated, her tone tentative. “Can I get in to talk?”
After a brief pause, Hugh nodded.
Megan slid into the backseat, her words tumbling out as if to preempt any misunderstanding.
“Hugh, I heard your wife was taken by the police before your divorce hearing yesterday. I was worried about you both, so I came to check in.”
Hugh’s eyes narrowed. “Where’d you hear that?”
Megan’s voice carried a trace of hurt. “Hugh, your
marriage troubles are all over the rumor mill. Everyone’s been talking about it.”
When he didn’t reply, she pressed on, her concern edged with urgency. “I looked into it, Hugh. In cases like hers, she could get bail.”
Hugh’s tone was cool and detached. “Megan, I’ll handle my wife’s situation properly. This is not something you
ould involve yourself in.”

She has tolerated my son and me living in New York, and I’ve always been grateful. Because of us, you’ve had misunderstandings with each other, and I’ve felt guilty. Now that she’s in trouble, how could I not care?”
Hugh’s response was measured, almost distant. “You don’t need to worry. Let the legal process take its course.”
The driver opened the door, and Megan stepped out.
As Hugh’s car pulled away, a sly smile curled her lips.
Bethan had been detained for over a day, but Hugh
seemed utterly unfazed.
His feelings for Bethan were clearly as thin as mist.
Inwardly, she prayed Bethan would be sentenced to ten years, maybe more.
Ideally, she’d never leave prison.
At ten that morning, Jacob stepped into the Cavill Group’s executive office.
Ble knocked lightly before entering. “Mr. Cavill, the 20:13

Hugh didn’t look up from the documents he was signing, his focus unwavering.
Jacob hesitated, then ventured, “Should I meet with them, Mr. Cavill?”
Hugh’s reply was curt and final. “No.”
During the midday break, Jacob knocked softly on the lounge door.
“Mr. Cavill, there’s trouble with the Olsen family.”
Hugh emerged, his face shadowed, a storm brewing in his
eyes.
Jacob stepped closer, urgency in his voice. “Barry somehow heard about Mrs. Cavill’s arrest and skipped school. He got hit by a car and is in the hospital. Mrs. Miranda Olsen fainted from the shock when she got the news and was rushed there too.”
Hugh’s expression darkened, a muscle ticking in his jaw. “Get them the best doctors. Make sure they’re okay.”
Jacob hesitated, then pushed forward. “Mr. Cavill, the0:13

Mrs. Cavill out. Mr. Vincent Olsen wants to meet you.”
Hugh glanced at his watch, his voice cold as frost. “Get the car.”
As he moved to leave, Gwen burst in, her eyes flashing with fury.
“Hugh, why are you blocking Mason from helping Bethan? What’s your game?”
Hugh’s face hardened. “Stay out of it, Gwen.”
She planted herself in the doorway, blocking him. “You’re keeping Megan and her kid on the side while refusing Bethan a divorce. You’re nothing but a cheating scumbag, and scumbags get what’s coming to them!”
