Chapter 185
Olivia was eating.
She made herself a plate of snacks. They were small, soft, and sweet like cotton candy.
She ate very quickly. There was still soft icing at the corner of her lips, but it did not seem rough at all.
The maid came over with a tissue and pointed at her right cheek. “Here.”
Olivia was stunned. Then, she smiled at the maid. “Thank you.”
In fact, the previous Olivia used to love to smile, like a little sun, and everyone would naturally or
unconsciously gather around her, just like planets orbiting a star.
It was an instinctive attraction.
But later on, Olivia gradually disliked smiling.
Fortunately, her thoughts were clear now. No one in this world could shackle her anymore.
After eating the snacks, Olivia leaned on the sofa. Her eyelashes fluttered, and it was obvious that she
was in a good mood.
Seeing this, the maid was a little surprised and asked, “Ms. Olivia, are you not angry?”
Olivia slowly lifted her eyelids and looked over in confusion. “What’s there to be angry about?”
“Aren’t you angry that Lindsay said that to you?” The maid was indignant. She had learned Lindsay
from the butler and felt that the girl had gone too far. If it were her, she would definitely scold and mock
Lindsay back. “However, Ms. Olivia’s status was higher than hers. It was not good for Ms. Olivia to
scold Lindsay like this. It was also low–class. It was best to fight back, just like the domineering female
lead in s,” thought the maid.
“Ms. Olivia, you could just look up and slap Lindsay fiercely.”
Olivia was amused by the maid’s idea. She collapsed on the sofa and laughed.
The maid rubbed her nose in embarrassment. “Then what should we
do?”

It was very rude to scold Lindsay back, but it felt a little too much to hit her back.
After Olivia laughed, she leaned forward and placed her arms on the table, supporting her chin with her
palms.
Her slender legs swayed casually.
She really knew how to answer this question.
When she was in high school, there was a boy who had just been promoted to junior high. He kept
pestering her and wanted her to be his girlfriend.
The boy came from a good family and was very spoiled. He was a domineering student in the
elementary school.
No matter where he went, a group of children followed behind him, and he was like their leader.
At that time, Olivia was pestered by him and felt annoyed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was hard to reason with him. He was unreasonable, causing confusion and refusing to listen to
reason.
If she scolded him, it would make her look like a shrew. Besides, it was clear she didn’t have
experience in verbal arguments. If they started exchanging insults, he would just bring her down to his
level, and with his extensive experience as a troublemaker, he would easily outwit her! Besides, he was
just a young kid, only 12 years old, much younger than her. It wouldn’t be right to physically harm
someone who still had a childish and immature demeanor.
In the end, Olivia thought of a solution.
She found the boy’s mother and presented her top–ranking report card, saying she wanted to tutor him.
She even said that if he wanted to improve his grades, he had to respect her and call her Ms. Taylor in
the future.
Moreover, she persuasively and convincingly convinced his mother, making her believe in the saying
“spare the rod, spoil the child,” insisting that her misbehaving son must be disciplined and punished
severely.
Hence, when the boy failed in English, his mother pounced on him and beat him up.
If the little brat did not write his essay for the exam, his mother would pounce on him and beat him up.

When the little brat fell asleep in class, his mother pound
pinched him.
In less than half a month, the boy knelt down and begged her with a swollen butt
He cried until his voice was hoarse. “Ms. Taylor, I beg you. Don’t tutor me or call my mother. I swear I
won’t pester you or appear in front of you again!
Olivia supported her chin with one hand and agreed. “Alright, but there’s no need not to meet. After all,
I quite like your sister’s tiramisu cake.”
Hearing this, the boy cried miserably.
“Was I unable to get rid of her? Why was I so unlucky?
“I clearly wanted to find a beautiful girlfriend to show off, but in the end, he only suffered.
“My mother liked Olivia a lot now. No matter what Olivia said, my mother would believe it. Olivia was
simply her confidant.
“For the past 12 years, my mother could not bear to touch a single strand of my hair.
“Olivia had only appeared for half a month, and my mother was already going to beat me to death!”
thought he.
After that, Olivia told Augus about this.
Augus patted her head and praised her for doing well.
He said, “In the future, you will encounter many such unreasonable and low–quality people in your life.
You are unable to communicate with them.
“Just as you said before, you can’t reason with them.
“You can retaliate with sarcastic remarks, but it is merely a momentary satisfaction of your quick wit,
and it also lacks grace and manners.
“It’s not worth it to attack.”
At this point, Augus paused and continued.
“When dealing with such individuals, the best approach is to improve oneself and distance oneself from
the environment where toxic people exist. When you elevate your social status to an unreachable level,
the people around you will be of high quality and excellence, and there will be no room for toxic
individuals.

“The average approach would be to counteract with a downgrade, just

like how you dealt with that middle school student. There’s no need to pay attention to them at all.
Instead, find someone of higher authority than them who can keep them in check.
“In the rudst of confrontation, it is best to avoid direct engagement with individuals of different social
status. It is like soldiers facing each other, generals against generals.
“Just like the current leaders, they always maintain a friendly demeanor and never directly confront
lower–level employees. If a lower–level employee truly annoys them, all they need to do is find the
immediate supervisor of that employee and give a simple order. The lower–level employee will have no
choice but to leave.
“The worst approach would be to retaliate directly. Even though it may provide temporary satisfaction, it
is highly inappropriate.”
Olivia did not care about Lindsay’s mockery and ridicule at all.
Who would argue with a barking little poodle? She just needed to remind the owner to mind his pet
when it was too noisy.
Such naughty and disobedient pets would naturally be disciplined by their owners.
There was no need for her to dirty her hands.
Olivia replied indifferently to the maid, “Her grandfather will discipline her.”
The maid felt that Lindsay was too lucky. She muttered, “I heard that Lindsay is Healix’s only
granddaughter. She will inherit Healix Pharmaceuticals in the future.”
Hearing this, Olivia sneered:
Then, she looked up and said unhurriedly, “Who said that his only granddaughter will definitely inherit
Healix Pharmaceuticals?”
The maid was stunned and subconsciously looked at Olivia.
However, Olivia had already lowered her eyes to hide the schemes in them.
Perhaps it was because she had been good for a long time that they really had the illusion that she was
easy to provoke.
She had once been soft–hearted toward Amelia. Now, she was soft–hearted toward her grandfather. In
the past, she had also tolerated Gillian.

However, she was not so kind to others.

Lindsay was sitting on the sofa and scolding Olivia.
If it weren’t for her, they wouldn’t have been so embarrassed and chased out of the Patterson family.
“She must have done it on purpose. She deliberately didn’t say that she was treating Anthony. Don’t
you think so, Grandpa?” Lindsay turned to Healix, seeking approval.
Healix was resting with his eyes closed. When he heard this, he suddenly opened his eyes. His gaze
was sharp and oppressive with scrutiny. “Did you say that Olivia wanted me to see her?”
“Yeah.” Lindsay pouted. “And she was so aggressive. Who does she think she is?”
Healix frowned. Olivia would not let him see her for no reason. There should be a reason.
“Did you do or say something?”
“So what?” Lindsay did not care. “Not only did I mock her, but I also wanted to hit her. Humph, what a
self–righteous fellow. She didn’t take me seriously at all. She said, ‘Your grandfather is here too, right?
Ask him to come and see me. What is that?”
“Shut up!” Healix was furious. His eyes were filled with disappointment as he looked at Lindsay.
This was his granddaughter, the granddaughter he had high hopes for.
She did not inherit any intelligence from him. Instead, she was as stupid as a pig.
“Tracy and the others don’t know, but you should know that your Grandpa Isaac originally wanted Olivia
to be the head of the Smith family. He even gave Yanis and Blake to Olivia in advance. Do you know
what this means? It means that Olivia’s position as the head of the family is set in stone!”
Lindsay frowned and said disapprovingly, “So what?”
Healix closed his eyes. “What kind of person is Isaac? Do you think he would choose an idiot to be the
head of the Smith family? Olivia didn’t even study medicine. She went to Evervale and didn’t go back
for a few years. Even so, Isaac still can’t forget her and wants her to inherit the Smith family.”
11:16
Lindsay was stunned and looked at Healix in a daze.
Healix added, “A person that Isaac values so much must have something extraordinary. Although we’re
on Gillian’s side, it’s for benefits and the Smith family’s prescription, not to offend Olivia!”
At this point, Healix’s tone was dejected. “Now that Gillian’s status is not stable, Olivia might have a
chance to make a comeback.” Especially Gillian was so stupid.
“Grandpa,” Lindsay called out, a rare look of panic on her face.
Healix said, “I’ll send you overseas. Don’t interfere in the company’s matters.”
“Grandpa!” The color drained from Lindsay’s face. “You’re banishing me just because I offended Olivia?
I’m your only granddaughter!”
Healix lowered his eyes. “You still don’t understand. Do you think she really wanted to see me when
she asked me to see her?”
Lindsay did not understand.
Healix sighed. “The purpose of her words was to let you tell me that you offended her.”
Olivia was so smart and cunning.
Could Gillian and Jarron really be her match?
It was as if Healix had aged more than ten years in an instant.
