Chapter 228 Disappointment
Henry faked a chuckle. “Olivia, I understand that you are mad. I’m furious too, but if something serious were to happen to her, I think that you would be in trouble too.”
Olivia sneered, “Don’t worry. I won’t let her die; I want her to live in such a miserable state that she would wish she were dead. You’d better remind your daughter to not fall into my hands again, because I’ll make sure to take her life then!” Her voice was bone-piercingly cold, resembling the wind from a snow-capped mountain which could freeze a person to death!
He took a deep breath and spoke in embarrassment, “Olivia, I’ve failed you. I-Is the child alright?”
She was like a porcupine that was full of spikes, especially when she was facing her father. If it weren’t because he messed with Amy, allowed the mother and daughter to enter their house, and indulged them, her child and her wouldn’t have fallen into such a state.
Therefore, how could a simple sorry make up for what he had done?
“What do you consider serious, then? He was injured all over when he was in Anna’s hands for only three or four hours. He kept having nightmares at night, and this fear will affect his entire childhood. If it weren’t for his clever escape, I doubt that my son would have been able to survive through that. Is your daughter insane? After all these years, haven’t you taken her to go for any check-ups?”
Henry replied, “I’m sorry, Olivia. I was blind; I didn’t know that she’s such an extreme person.”
She coldly uttered, “There’s no need for you to say that. You have nothing to do with me anymore. If the purpose of you calling me was to say these words, just forget about it. I’ll never forgive her. The reason I didn’t take her life was not because for your sake; I just wanted her to live on to endure the pain that she’s inflicted on my son!”
Upon hearing that Olivia seemed to have the intention to hang up the phone, he immediately said, “Olivia, this is not what I wanted to say. I wanted to talk to you about something else…” He paused for a moment at this point because he found it really embarrassing to ask for her help, but he couldn’t just watch his company go bankrupt. “Olivia, please help me. Eugene has started to target Maxwell Company. I’m really at my wits’ end.”
Hearing that, she was stunned for some time. She thought that he called her because he was worried about his grandson’s injuries and was pissed off by Anna’s action, so he wanted to apologize to her.
Yes! He did express his concern just now.
