Chapter 829
"Pride?"
Sam nodded his little head and said, "Yes. You said you'd look worthless if you forgave him. So, it means you don't
want to give in, right?
"You think he hurt you so much in the past that you don't want to forgive him, but no one asked you to forgive,
Godmother."
Olivia was puzzled. "How can I accept him if I don't forgive him?"
"Godmother, maybe you can try differentiating your forgiveness and feelings for him. Dating him doesn’t mean
forgiving him. The mistakes that have been made can't be forgiven no matter what.
"It's like how I'll never be able to forgive my dad. However, if my dad gets better and starts loving me enough to
give his life for me, I won't mind calling him 'Dad'."
After hearing these words, Olivia froze and looked at Sam in disbelief.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt had never occurred to her that a child of ten could see things more clearly than she did.
She never expected to need a child’s words to enlighten her...
Sam shook Olivia's hand when he noticed she was in a daze and said," Godmother, I'm not saying this because I
want you to accept Godfather. After all, I'm not speaking on behalf of him. I just don't want to see you making
things difficult for yourself."
Olivia sighed and forced a smile. "Let's go and have some ice cream, shall we?"
"Yeah, let's go."
Maybe Sam was right, but she did not want to decide so soon.
She had to wait until she got an answer about Mr. M.
When she returned from the hospital the following day, she called the atelier and left Sam with Mrs. Simmons
before heading out with the lunch box.
Since that day, she had not seen Zac again.
She told him to come back for dinner, but he never did. It was probably because he had not thought it through.
Thus, she decided to go to Quinton Group to clearthe misunderstanding between him and her. Moreover, she
wanted to ask him about Jess' matter from four years ago.
After all, she felt she needed to give Sam an answer.
She drove to Quinton Group and met Elaine in the lobby.
They got into the elevator together, keeping a distance.
Suddenly, Elaine spoke, "Mrs. Quinton, there's something I want to tell you.’
'What is it?"
"It's not convenient here. Follow me later." Elaine, perhaps afraid Olivia would not take it seriously, added, "It's
really important."
Olivia nodded but did not think too much about it.
When they arrived, Elaine led her to a storeroom. After observing the surroundings and ensuring no one was
around, Elaine called her in.
'What can’t be said outside?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough she seemed to have overcome her fear of the dark last time, she did not like the enclosed environment.
"Mrs. Quinton, I remember the favor you did me by helping Fabian and me. So, in return, I also want to tell you
what Dorothy has been upto recently."
Olivia frowned slightly as she beckoned Elaine to continue.
"Since the video of Mr. Clarins and her was exposed online, she suspected you were behind it. So, she wants to get
back at you by chasing Zac out of Quinton Group.
"Recently, she has been planning on redistributing the shares. I heard Mr. Quinton seems to have agreed to it and
has also started to persuade other shareholders recently. I think... Zac doesn't have enough shares to give him
enough say."
Olivia observed Elaine before asking, "Are you telling me this to repay me?"
'Well, I know you might not believe me, but I think I should tell you. As for whether you choose to believe it or not,
it’s your business."
That caught Olivia by surprise.
She always thought Elaine might harm her in return, but unexpectedly, Elaine was sharing information with her.
That made her want to keep observing Elaine. It seemed she would not need to use the video of Elaine and Fabian
for now.
