Chapter 4: The Second Will?

"No, no." Melvin avoided eye contact with Olivia. Olivia looked at him suspiciously. Could it be that Melvin not only had an affair with her best friend but also with Hillary? Because of her best friend, Olivia had overlooked the intimate exchanges between him and Hillary. So, it turned out that the real victim was her! She would definitely not let them off the hook! "Melvin, drive her out," Hillary reminded him. "There are so many people here today. If she causes a scene, she will embarrass us." "You're right," Olivia sneered. "If anyone should be mocked, it should be you guys!" "Olivia, we are over." Melvin naturally wouldn't let his reputation be tarnished. "But I heard that you slept with Chace. Is that true?" Melvin wanted to know. When Olivia was together with him, they were only holding hands and kissing. He never expected that Olivia would become so unrestrained. He felt resentful in his heart. Olivia's face darkened. "It's none of your business!" "Melvin, don't bother asking her. She wouldn't dare to admit that she is a slut," Hillary sarcastically remarks. "Yesterday, someone saw her flirting with Chace. She is that kind of person." Olivia's dark eyes turned sharp. But she had already forgotten about what happened last night. Did she really take the initiative? "Someone, drive her out!" Hillary ordered. This time, Melvin did not stop. He looked at Olivia with disappointment and anger. If he had known it earlier, he should have forcefully slept with Olivia when they were together! Then, he wouldn't have been longing to have sex with her. Two fierce bodyguards were already approaching Olivia. At this moment, Olivia had already understood why Chace forced her to come here. He was to let her know what these three people had done to her and the company. He wanted to make her understand who the real troublemaker in the company was! How annoying! At this moment, one bodyguard was already reaching his hand towards Olivia. Just as his rough and powerful fingers were about to touch Olivia, there was a sound of a slap, and his hand was slapped away. All of a sudden, a tall figure appeared in front of Olivia, carrying a fresh scent. He had a majestic figure, broad shoulders, and a slender waist. "A group of people bullying a young girl. Isn't it shameful?" There was a mocking expression on Chace's noble and handsome face. "Mr. Baker, you've misunderstood," Melvin explained. "Mr. Baker, it has nothing to do with us. Olivia provoked us first." Hillary shifted the blame. "How can a notorious woman like her appear here?" "Notorious?" Chace's eyes turned cold. "Is it a bad thing to get involved in a scandal with me?" Everyone was stunned. Olivia was speechless. "No, no, that's not what I meant," Hillary stumbled. "Mr. Baker, what I meant was that getting involved in a scandal with her would tarnish your reputation." "I only find it gross to get involved in a scandal with you." Chace's voice turned icy cold. "Besides me, who else has she got involved in a scandal with?" Hillary didn't know how to answer. "And you! You marry the former fiance of your stepsister with the reputation of the Hampton family. Your stepfather just got buried today and you are holding an engagement ceremony here tonight. Don't you know about principles and ethics? Aren't you the one to be laughed at?" Chace's charming eyes revealed a chill. "Let me see who will speak up for you. When he dies, I will have someone dance in front of his grave. Let's see who dares to criticize me." Everyone fell silent. At this moment, Melvin's parents approached. "Mr. Baker, it's all a misunderstanding," Melvin's father, Aaron Conley, explained. "You are our guests. Olivia, no matter what, we're family. Let's not argue." Olivia sneered, "Who said we were family?" Aaron felt awkward. He wanted to lose his temper. But looking at Chace, he could only hold back. "Everyone, just go." "Let's go." Melvin pulled Hillary away. As they left, he gave Olivia a meaningful glance, He seemed to say, "Wait and see." Olivia gave him a dirty look and mouthed the word, "Coward." Melvin gritted his teeth and left. "Mr. Baker, thank you," Olivia expressed a hint of gratitude towards him. It was all thanks to his protection. Chace replied disdainfully, "You seemed quite reluctant to leave your fiancé just now." "What are you talking about?" Olivia was speechless. Chace let out a cold snort, his eyes filled with warning. "What I meant was absolutely not!" Olivia explained. "Olivia," a gentle voice called softly. Olivia turned her head. "Mr. Frazier?" Freddy Frazier, her father's lawyer. Olivia didn't expect him to come. Freddy walked up to her and said, "Can we talk alone for a moment?" "Okay." Olivia agreed without thinking much. Freddy looked at Chace and said, "Mr. Baker, my apologies for interrupting." He took Olivia with him and left. Chace's handsome face turned cold and fierce. She didn't even look at him and walked away with another man! Olivia and Freddy arrived in a secluded corner. "Mr. Frazier, is it about my father's second will?" Olivia's eyes brightened. "What did he say? Did he leave me any money?" Freddy sighed, "Olivia, as you know, the Hampton Group has been able to sustain until now all because of your mother's hard work back then. I know you will face great difficulties this time." The light in Olivia's clear eyes slowly dimmed. "My mother worked tirelessly for the company, but when she passed away, my father was with another woman, embracing her and holding another child, celebrating the birthday together. If it weren't for my mother's dying wish, I would never sacrifice so much for the company!" Freddy sighed softly, "What I'm about to tell you does indeed concern the second will of your father, but it is related to your mother." Olivia was taken aback. "In fact, this will was left by your mother," Freddy explained, "but she didn't consult a lawyer, and your father hid this will all along, never giving it to you. Now that he has passed away, according to his original request, I will give you this second will." "Now?" Olivia frowned. "No," Freddy clarified, "your father had a request." "What is it?" Olivia asked curiously. Freddy sighed, "Your father wants you to bring your grandparents, uncle, and aunt to live with you. Only if you can fulfill this request will I give you the will." "What!" Olivia exploded in anger. "They were the ones who almost caused my mother to have a miscarriage. My mother struggled to drive them away, and now that both my parents have died, I have to bring them into my home. Was my father insane?"
