And, how much had he heard just now?
"Drake..."
Facing Drake, Olivia was somewhat scared. She couldn't help taking a step back.
"You are such a kind stepmother. Thank you for answering my doubts that had been there for so many years. I suppose I wouldn't know about it if I hadn't come back."
Drake walked towards her step by step, and Olivia was forced to step back.
"Drake, it's not what you think. I..."
Drake sneered. "Even till now, you are still lying? You expect me to believe you?"
Olivia had already seen that Drake was no longer under her control and it seemed she didn't have to play nice with him anymore.
"Yes, Drake. You heard me just now. What? You want to turn back on your word now? You aren't going to be with Cecelia anymore?"
Drake suddenly grabbed her neck and lifted her up from the ground. There was a gloomy look in his eyes.
Olivia's feet kicked in the air and she shouted, "Drake, I am legally your stepmother. You can't kill me..."
"I can't?" Drake sneered with disdain. "I can't kill you, but you can do all those shady things you have done?"
"What do you mean?"
Olivia didn't believe that he had known all those things she had done. She thought she had hidden them well.
"You think I have no clue. For your son, you have done a lot of things. You managed to have Grandpa give him the position of acting president. He wanted to prove his ability in front of Grandpa, didn't he?"
Olivia had known that Drake was smart, but she didn't expect him to even realize this.
But she couldn't admit it.
"I don't understand what you are saying. Put me down!"
"What if I don't?"
"I raised you up! Emma gave birth to you, but I raised you up all these years! I am more like a mother to you than she does!"
Drake sneered. "You raised me up so that you could destroy me with your own hands, right?"
Olivia had wanted to say something else when Drake threw her aside.
She felt so much pain that she could hardly breathe.
"I don't want to see you here from now on. Get out of my face!"
Olivia came here to ruin Emma's birthday. However, not only did she fail, but also, she pissed off Drake.
It was a wrong move.
Olivia didn't know how she got up from the ground. She left slowly with pain in her body.
No one helped her.
Drake had been staring at Sophia with blatant affection in his eyes.
For such a long time, he had thought that Olivia wanted to separate the two of them because she thought Sophia was low-born.
But Sophia wasn't low-born at all. It had been Olivia's scheme all along.
