Compared to Rachel, who was so relaxed and content.
The Cruise family was suffering from a terribly heavy atmosphere.
Ever since Richard Cruise found out that Olivia Cruise had been forced to kneel down and apologize in
public, he had been sitting on the sofa smoking one cigarette after another.
Olivia and her mother exchanged looks with one another. She wanted to speak several times, but her
mother stopped her. She held Olivia’s hand and gestured for her to remain silent.
According to what she knew about Richard over the years, speaking up at this time would only make
Richard angrier.
Ever since the Cruise family’s company started to go downhill, Richard’s temper was no longer as
gentle and refined as before. Instead, it was difficult for others to guess his thoughts, and it was normal
for him to be suspicious and overthinking.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOlivia gritted her teeth and clenched her fists on her knees. Her face flushed different shades of red
and white.
The current state of the Cruise family was not as good as before. It was because of this that they could
not wait to befriend the Smith family, hoping to get a share of the profits.
However, now that things have made such a turn, not only would the Cruise family’s reputation be
damaged, but the Smith family would probably also be dissatisfied with them.
After all, she was the one accompanying Jane Smith when it happened.
If they were no longer welcomed by the Smith family for this, everything she had done previously would
be in vain.
At that moment, there was the sound of a car stopping outside the door.
Olivia got up from the sofa and rushed to the door without a word.
She happened to see Louis Smith open the door and get out of the car from the driver’s seat.
The moment she saw Louis, Olivia’s heart finally relaxed slightly.
Fortunately, Louis did not blame her….
Otherwise, she would be worried sick to beg for Louis’s forgiveness.
Olivia couldn’t help but feel tears welling up in her eyes as she looked at Louis dressed in a suit and
leather shoes.
“What’s going on?” Louis could not help but quicken his pace when he saw Olivia’s tearful expression.
He raised his arm and Olivia pounced into his arms immediately. She snuggled against his chest. “I
didn’t expect to see you again…”
“What nonsense are you saying?” Louis bent down and kissed her forehead. “We’re all fine. How can
we not see each other?”
Olivia sniffled, but tears continued to roll down the corners of her eyes.
The scene of his beautiful girl crying really made Louis’s heart ache.
He carefully wiped away the tears on her face with his fingertips and held her waist as they walked into
the house.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Richard found out that Louis had arrived, he put out the cigarette in his hand. His serious
expression softened a little. “Louis is here.”
“Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Cruise.” Louis nodded slightly to greet the two of them.
Bertha looked at her prospective son–in–law with a smile on her face. “Louis, you haven’t eaten yet,
right? I’ll ask our cook to prepare dinner and you can have a drink with Richard tonight.”
Louis pursed his lips and said calmly, “Sure.”
After Bertha left, Louis and Olivia sat down on the sofa on Richard’s side.
“Louis, I’m ashamed to say this, but Olivia did not handle this matter properly, causing Jane to suffer.”
Richard sighed softly. “I was just planning to visit your family and apologize in person. I wonder if your
parents are available recently?”
“Richard, you’re too kind,” Louis declined politely.
Actually, he also knew that this was not Olivia’s fault alone.
If it weren’t for Rachel’s aggressiveness, things wouldn’t have taken such a turn. She pushed the
Cruise family and the Smith family to the center of public opinion.
