Chapter 144
Dean felt that he was so unlucky. Gianna had just offended William and caused Dean to end up like
this. Now, even Olivia, the murderer, was still alive.
This was like adding fuel to the fire. It was a bolt from the blue!
Dean looked at Griffin, hoping that he would tell him that he was only joking. Unfortunately, Griffin was
very excited and emphasized it again.
“Oh, Mr. Clarke, you didn’t hear wrong. Miss Olivia is back, and Mr. Kinsman has personally announced
that she is the only Mrs. Kinsman!”
“What?” Was William out of his mind?
He hated Olivia so much in the past. How could he admit openly that she was his wife now?
Dean was very confused.
He felt that the nerves in his head were throbbing because of Griffin’s words. He suspected that he
could not stand the stimulation and that his blood vessels might explode at any time.
However, what Griffin said did arouse his interest. Dean pulled him into the apartment and was ready to
listen more carefully.
“Calm down, Mr. Clarke. This is a video that has been trending on the Internet. You’ll know when you
watch it yourself!”
Griffin took out his phone, opened Twitter, and played the video for Dean.
When Dean heard William say that Olivia was Mrs. Kinsman, he felt that he could finally see hope for
survival.
Olivia was his daughter. If Olivia were William’s wife, wouldn’t that make him William’s father-in-law as
well?
T
Dean chuckled. This time, he was William’s legitimate father-in-law. Olivia had even given birth to

William’s children!
Dean was overjoyed. He held Griffin’s arm and kept asking him if it was true.
“Griffin, you are not lying to me, are you?”
“Hurry up and prepare yourself, Mr. Clarke. The Clarke family can live!”
“That’s right. My daughter is Mrs. Kinsman. Does the Clarke family have to worry about not having any
investors now?”
Dean was overjoyed and quickly ran to wash his face and change his clothes. He wanted to see Olivia
immediately so that he could make her talk to William and help the Clarke family out.
He might even be able to pick up a few big projects for free!
Dean washed his face quickly as he calculated his chances. He was even secretly happy that Olivia
had always been soft-hearted and easy to manipulate. She was much easier to control than Gianna
ever was.
Moreover, Olivia had proved herself useful by giving birth to a son for William. In the future, half of the
properties of the Kinsman family would belong to the Clarke family.
He was confident that as long as he asked, Olivia would never refuse him.
Thinking of this, he felt as if he had been injected with steroids, and his whole body began to shine
from the inside out!
At Maple Villas.
Olivia did not expect William to be so easy-going as to let her bring both children back home.
However, the two children were tired after playing in the mountain area for more than half a day. As
soon as Olivia came home, she was ready to arrange for them to rest first.
To her surprise, the two children seemed to have made up their minds and had their minds set to sleep
with her.
Olivia had no choice but to take the two children upstairs and have a good sleep with them in her arms.
Probably because the identities of the two children had been revealed and William had agreed to get
along with her peacefully, she slept exceptionally well.
Unfortunately, just as she was sound asleep with her two sons in her arms, she was woken up by a
loud noise.
Olivia opened her eyes in a daze and saw that the two children beside her were still asleep. She put on
a jacket quickly and went downstairs.
Meanwhile, in the living room on the first floor, Dean began to lose his temper because he was stopped
by Gideon.

“Who do you think you are? This is my daughter’s home. Why can’t I be here? Do I need your approval
to come in? What a joke
Dean pointed at Gideon and cursed angrily. It was as if this was truly his home.
Gideon remained modest and polite on the surface, but he had no intention of giving in.
During the days he had been with Olivia in Melburgh, he knew exactly what kind of person Dean was.
The reason why he came in such a hurry now was nothing more than the fact that he needed a new
cash cow.
Such a man didn’t deserve to be Olivia’s father.
Gideon didn’t throw Dean out directly only because of his upbringing and for Olivia’s sake.
“Mr. Clarke, I just told you this. Miss Clarke is resting. Please come back another day, or wait in the
living room.”
“As her father, why should I sit here and wait to see my daughter? I think you are meddling in other’s
businesses. Go and get Olivia to come out to see me! Now that she’s alive and back, how can she not
come home to have a look? She’s so heartless!”
Dean cursed angrily, but he was also worried.
He was worried that Olivia had changed her mind and was avoiding him deliberately.
“If you aren’t going, I’ll go get her myself!” Seeing that Gideon was unmoved, Dean decided to barge in
immediately.
Olivia wrapped herself in a coat and came downstairs lazily. She had already recognized Dean’s voice,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmso she shouted deliberately, “Gideon, who is being so noisy here? Don’t you know that the children are
resting?”
Gideon understood immediately and got into the role of an incompetent housekeeper.
“I’m sorry, Miss Clarke, it’s Mr. Clarke. He knew that you and the young Mr. Kinsman were resting, but
he insisted on breaking in…” Gideon looked at Dean in embarrassment and explained to Olivia pitifully.
Before Gideon could finish his words, he was pushed away by Dean, who was behind him.
Gideon wanted to stop her, but when he saw Olivia winking at him, he exited the room worriedly.
“Olivia, you are really alive and back. I missed you so much!” Dean rushed up and wanted to grab
Olivia, but she took a step back and dodged his arms.
“Who are you?” Olivia narrowed her eyes and asked in confusion deliberately.
“Olivia, it’s me. I’m your father. Don’t you recognize me?”
“Father? I did have a father five years ago, but he thought I was the murderer at that time. He was
afraid that I would implicate him, so he made a statement to disown me. I guess he must be too
ashamed to come to me, so I advise you not to come to my house to try to trick me!”
After saying that with a poker face, Olivia yawned and turned around. She was ready to go upstairs to
go back to her sleep. However, Dean had no intention of giving up such a good opportunity to get Olivia
to recognize him as her father, so he took another step forward and blocked her way.
“Olivia, take a closer look. I’m really your father. It was my fault for not trusting you in the past, but now
I know I was wrong and I’m here for you. Please forgive me, okay?”
Dean grabbed Olivia’s arm in exasperation. He was grabbing her arm so tightly that it hurt.
“Let go of me! You’re hurting me!” Olivia had almost recovered from the injury on her arm, but she had
grabbed William in the mountain stream too tightly in the morning, and now, the wound on her arm that
had already healed was about to split open again.
After she came home, she applied medicine to it and was extra careful to not strain herself.
Nevertheless, she didn’t expect that Dean would come and grab her arm so suddenly.
Blood oozed out of her slender arm in an instant, and Olivia was in so much pain that her forehead was
covered with
sweat.
