The Secret Heir Return To Wealth And Love novel Chapter 496

Chapter 496

“Wayne, I think I might’ve messed up big time.” Olivia covered her face, shaking as she spoke.

Wayne’s face turned serious.

Rosalynn was planning to leave the living room, not wanting to listen to their phone call.

But Wayne, as if worried about her leaving, grabbed Rosalynn’s hand with his injured one.

He immediately frowned.

Rosalynn glared at him, mouthing “I won’t go!”

Without giving her a chance to explain, Wayne pulled her to sit beside him.

“What mistake?” he asked.

“About today’s proposal… I actually had it done together with some others. I just found out that the proposal was actually the one that Jered had discarded before,” Olivia sounded like she was falling apart, “The person who sold me the proposal has disappeared, and I’m worried that Ms. Jared will think I plagiarized their previous proposal on purpose.”

Olivia’s biggest concern was Gabriella complaining to Wayne. She had thought long and hard, and this was the only thing she could come up with.

Wayne looked at Rosalynn. No wonder the people from Jered’s side all looked like they were going to explode during Olivia’s presentation.

“Wayne, I just wanted to win the project for Bane Corporation. Ms. Jared is very capable, and I already admired her a great deal before our meeting. So the pressure was huge. When that person. came to me with the proposal, I was indeed amazed by its content, and I was a bit muddled for a moment… You have to believe me, I repeatedly confirmed that the proposal was their original work before buying it… I really didn’t expect things would turn out like this! I have no idea how Jered Ventures‘ proposal got into that person’s hands…”

Wayne was practically hugging Rosalynn, so she could hear Olivia’s voice.

How to put this?

Rosalynn stayed silent.

“Is she there? Why don’t we all have dinner together tonight. My treat, so I can explain everything to her face to face?” Olivia’s tone was soft and pleading, with a tinge of humiliation, “Wayne, you’re planning to marry her, right? I won’t be able to avoid seeing her in the future, so it’s better if we don’t have any conflicts.”

“No need.”

Wayne declined without even asking Rosalynn.

“Is that her decision, or yours?” Olivia asked sadly after a brief silence.

“Mine,” Wayne answered.

Olivia laughed sadly, “Wayne, are you guarding against me? Do you think I’d hurt her?”

Before Wayne could answer, Olivia asked with a self–mocking tone, “So that’s what you think of me? We’ve known each other for over a decade, have you ever seen me hurt anyone?
