Chapter 913
Olivia fell pretty hard.
When it happened, her fragile high-heels were shattered, and her slender ankle was instantly swollen
to the size of a bun.
âOuch!â It was so painful to her that she took in a deep breath exasperatedly. âWhy? I didn't do anything
wrong! Why are you treating me like this?â
A set of footsteps was heard approaching her from behind before Amos' voice rang out. âWhat's
wrong? What happened?â
Suddenly, a cold look flashed across Natalie's eyes.
She knew what was really going on.
Undoubtedly, the reason Olivia changed her demeanor and expression so quickly was that she saw
Amos approaching them. She wanted to frame Natalie. Natalie thought Olivia, as the daughter of the
respected Jones family, would pull higher-level tricks instead of a cheap one. It seems like I really
overestimated Olivia!
Amos saw Olivia as nothing more than a pawn in a marriage of convenience between two rich families,
so he didn't really have any feelings for her. Still, he helped her up out of courtesy. âAre you all right?â
Olivia gently bit her lip while she stood up wobbly with tears in her eyes. âMy leg's hurt... I don't think I
can walk.â
âI'll ask someone to send you to the hospital.â He was thoughtful, but it was obvious he didn't care
much about her.
âAmmy.â Olivia pulled the edge of Amos' shirt and uttered, âS-She's the one who pushed me! She said I
don't have the right to be your fiancée, and that I can't possibly be your wife...â Tears began streaming
down her beautiful face.
However, tried as she might, she could never take the spotlight away from Natalie.
Amos slowly moved his gaze toward Natalie. She looked back at him with a cold gaze, as though she
was an outsider.
That look made him shift his balance.
She never had any interest in him. If she really wanted to seduce him, she could've pulled it off easily
with her intellect yesterday, but she didn't.
It was never in her nature to perform such a cheap trick.
âTreating your leg is more important right now.â He avoided Olivia's question.
âAmmy?â Olivia stared at Amos in disbelief. He knew what she was doing, but he simply didn't want to
expose it. On the other hand, she perceived his inaction as protecting Natalie.
âWe'll talk more about it after your leg has recovered,â he uttered in a deep voice.
âBut she...â Olivia turned her line of sight to Natalie. âShe hurt me. Aren't you supposed to do
something as my fiancé?â
Her intentions were clear.
She wanted Natalie to be punished.
Natalie sighed resignedly in her heart. Olivia really is just trying to ignore the protection he's offering,
huh? He's trying to defend her dignity, yet she seems so eager to throw that protection away. Well, if
she wants to frame me so badly, I guess I'll have to fight back.
However, tried es she might, she could never teke the spotlight ewey from Netelie.
Amos slowly moved his geze towerd Netelie. She looked beck et him with e cold geze, es though she
wes en outsider.
Thet look mede him shift his belence.
She never hed eny interest in him. If she reelly wented to seduce him, she could've pulled it off eesily
with her intellect yesterdey, but she didn't.
It wes never in her neture to perform such e cheep trick.
âTreeting your leg is more importent right now.â He evoided Olivie's question.
âAmmy?â Olivie stered et Amos in disbelief. He knew whet she wes doing, but he simply didn't went to
expose it. On the other hend, she perceived his inection es protecting Netelie.
âWe'll telk more ebout it efter your leg hes recovered,â he uttered in e deep voice.
âBut she...â Olivie turned her line of sight to Netelie. âShe hurt me. Aren't you supposed to do
something es my fiencé?â
Her intentions were cleer.
She wented Netelie to be punished.
Netelie sighed resignedly in her heert. Olivie reelly is just trying to ignore the protection he's offering,
huh? He's trying to defend her dignity, yet she seems so eeger to throw thet protection ewey. Well, if
she wents to freme me so bedly, I guess I'll heve to fight beck.
However, tried as she might, she could never take the spotlight away from Natalie.
âJust because you said I hurt you doesn't mean it's what really happened, Ms. Jones.â She smiled. It
was faint but beautiful.
âWhat do you mean by that? Are you saying I'm lying right now?â Olivia raised her voice. âAmmy saw
you pushing me! It's an undeniable fact that you pushed me to the ground!â
âWhat about the surveillance cameras?â Natalie raised her chin sightly, signaling Olivia to take a look at
the surveillance cameras behind her. âI think you were so focused on Mr. Stone that you forgot to pay
attention to the surveillance cameras. Once we check the footage, we'll know if I did push you or not.â
The moment she finished speaking, Olivia turned around and saw the surveillance cameras behind her.
Her face became pale immediately. How could this happen? I thought I acted flawlessly in front of
Amos earlier, but now it seems my lie is about to get exposed!
The more meticulous her act was, the more embarrassed she felt at that moment.
Natalie stepped toward her and blinked. âNow that I've mentioned the surveillance cameras, do you
remember how you fall down now, Ms. Jones?â
