Chapter 948 Ruthless
Jerry hurried out of his bedroom and went to Olivia’s bedroom.
Raising his hand, he knocked on her door.
Knock, knock!
“Who is it?” Olivia called out lazily inside her room.
“Olivia, it’s me, Jerry.”
Hearing his voice, Olivia said, “Jerry? Come on in.”
After gaining her approval, Jerry turned the doorknob and opened the door. Inside, he saw Olivia clad in a white robe. With her legs crossed, she was applying nail polish on her nails carefully, not forgetting to blow on her nails to dry them.
“I need your help, Olivia. You need to help me!” Jerry scurried over to her earnestly.
Confused, Olivia placed the nail polish down and asked, “What happened? Tell me why you need my help. Did you cause trouble in school? Do you need me to settle it for you?”
“No. I didn’t cause trouble in school.” After a pause, Jerry added, “It’s related to Natalie Nichols. I was scrolling on my phone and discovered that Dream Jewelry got into trouble. Yvette wore their jewelry in a shoot and suffered from a severe allergic reaction. As of now, she’s receiving emergency treatment in the hospital now. Everyone is cursing the company online now. Olivia, Farrington Jewelry is a renowned company selling jewelry, too. Can we issue a statement to help them out? After all, it might not be the jewelry that gave her an allergic reaction. Perhaps Yvette ate something or came into contact with something that triggered her allergy.”
He had barely finished his words when Olivia let out a snort. “Jerry, are you all right?”
“Why are you asking me that, Olivia?”
A smug and vicious look flashed across Olivia’s eyes. “Yvette’s fans are focusing on the matter. This has nothing to do with Farrington Jewelry at all. Why do we have to get involved in this mess?”
“Because this must be a misunderstanding, Olivia!” Jerry knew that Natalie was not someone who would do that.
“So what if it’s a misunderstanding? It doesn’t matter at all. Now, the allergy reaction is obviously related to Dream Jewelry, and our jewelry collection will be released in three days. As for Natalie, she has to fend for herself,” came Olivia’s frosty answer.
“Olivia—”
“Stop calling my name!” Olivia slapped Jerry’s hand away and warned, “Dream is our rival. If she’s in trouble, we’ll get a chance to succeed. Even if you go to Mom and Dad, they won’t help you!”
“You—”
“This is how ruthless the corporate world can be, Jerry.” Olivia folded her arms and stated viciously, “You get to see how harsh reality can be. That’s how things work! You lose some, and you win some. It’s late, so you should go to bed soon. I’m going to sleep.”
Jerry wanted to protest, but Olivia told him to leave.
Despite his reluctance, he had no choice but to trudge out of her room.
After Jerry left, Olivia got herself a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet nonchalantly. Pouring it into the decanter, she took a deep breath to take in the scent of the wine.
It was a celebration for her.
“Natalie, oh Natalie…” Swirling the glass in her hand, Olivia flashed a smug smile. She enjoyed seeing the red liquid splashing around the glass. “He who laughs last laughs longest. You tried to take what’s mine away from me, huh? I shall see how you’ll do that.”
It would be pretty difficult for Natalie to prove her innocence in the allergy scandal.
Even if she managed to clear her name, Dream and Muse’s reputation would still be affected.
Natalie brought this upon herself! Anna picked the wrong person to collaborate with. She refused to collaborate with us and chose to work with Dream instead. She deserves this!
Olivia raised her glass and toasted herself before finishing the wine in one gulp.
