Chapter 253

When Chloe heard that, her expression softened considerably. “I knew it. This woman was indeed pestering you. You hear that, Liv? Now gather your things and go home with me.”

Chloe reached out to grab Olivia’s hand. “I was a little worked up just now, so don’t take my words to heart. I’m doing this for your good.

“Since you’re already divorced, you should completely cut ties with him. Clinging on will only hurt everyone…”

Olivia pushed her hand away. “You’re right, you should completely cut ties after a divorce. When your ex-husband is about to die on the sick bed, you don’t have to visit him-not even once.”

Chloe froze. When she thought about it, she truly hadn’t taken the initiative to visit Jeff since her return.

“Are you blaming me? When I came back, your dad was in the ICU, so outsiders weren’t allowed to visit.”

Olivia found her explanation pathetic. “Ms. Parker, I’m seriously doubting your sincerity. When the Parker family was almost going bankrupt, Dad was the one who saved them.

“You didn’t want to marry him, so he waited for you. But when you did marry him, you did it reluctantly. You even thought of that marriage as a disgrace.

“But what has my dad done against you? Once your true love returned, you left without a trace. But even now, my dad has never married another woman.

“You can complain about anyone in this world, but you have no right to complain about my dad.”

Olivia’s words caused Chloe’s face to redden. Olivia was just one step away from calling Chibe an ingrate.

With that, Olivia looked at Ethan. “I didn’t do anything wrong. Why did you fire me?”

Ethan looked at her coldly. “Because you caused quite a lot of trouble in the few days you were here. You’ve affected the company’s image. Miller Group doesn’t need an employee like you.

“I’ll ask HR to pay you three times your salary, as per the contract. You can go downstairs and eattle it now.”

Olivia was frustrated. She was so close to figuring out the truth, but this had to happen.

Also, she had just said that she had nothing to do with Ethan. She couldn’t plead with him to change his mind.

Ethan studied her expression. She looked like she was holding something back. He said with intention, “Isn’t this what you want?”

Olivia clenched her fists, then let go in the end.

“Yes. Understood.”

Now that Chloe’s goal was achieved, she instantly turned gentle again.

“Liv, tell me if you need money. The Carltons have a lot of assets. If there’s anything you’d like, I’ll have it arranged for you.” “I’m not worthy.” Olivia nodded slightly at Ethan, then left without looking back.

When Olivia went back to Team C, everyone looked at her with curious gazes. Some even looked like they were eager for gossip. Seeing that Olivia was gathering her things, Norma didn’t mock her for once.

“Are you leaving, Ms. Fordham?”

“Yes,”

Olivia didn’t have many things in the first place, so she was done in a few minutes. Norma saw her off at the entrance.

“Ms. Fordham, why don’t you talk it over with Mr. Miller? You’re such an excellent employee. How can he fire you just like that?”

Olivia knew what Norma was thinking. She had finally gotten on Olivia’s good side, but Olivia was already leaving. The efforts she put in had gone to waste.

But Olivia still had some use for Norma, so her attitude was gentle.

“It’s okay, I’ll be back.”

With the shares she currently owned, she was one of the biggest shareholders of Miller Group. When she came back next time, she would be attending the shareholders’ meeting.

Olivia revealed the information to Norma so that Norma could keep working for her.

“Now that my mom has caused a ruckus here, Mr. Miller has to avoid suspicion somehow. You know how it is.”

Norma instantly understood. “Oh, yes. Mr. Miller is about to get engaged, so he doesn’t want any rumors to spread. Hang in there, Ms. Fordham.

“Mr. Miller pampers you so much. You won’t have to worry.’

Olivia said, troubled, “But I’m worried about the case with Jackson…”

“Don’t worry, Ms. Fordham. Leave it to me. I’ll investigate this matter for you. We’ll see who’s the wretch that’s trying to harm you.”

Olivia patted Norma on the shoulder. “I’m counting on you.”

It wasn’t like the teasing from before. Norma could already see herself at the height of her life just by clinging to Olivia

“I promise that I’ll complete my mission.”

Olivia made a gesture of zipping her mouth. Norma immediately replied with an “OK” gesture.
