Chapter 709 âLi V, how was my performance just now?â
Olivia burst into laughter. âI almost believed you were filial.â
âJimmy loves to be complimented. Also, he always wanted me to submit to him. So, thereâs no reason for him to be unhappy now that I was all over him like that.â
âZac, whatâs your next plan?â
âI will need to look at a lot of information when Iâm in the Legal Department. That way, Iâll be able to find flaws.â
Zac looked at her and chuckled coldly, iâll bring Quinton Group down, make him beg me to help him, and then Iâll help him build Quinton Group up again.â
âHowever, Quinton Group is your grandfatherâs blood, sweat, and tears. If it collapses...â
Zac smiled mysteriously. âDonât worry. I wonât let that happen.â
âAt most, Iâll just cripple it.â
The two went back to Elegance Gardens. After lunch, Olivia pushed Zac as they took a stroll in the yard.
Mrs. Simmons smiled gladly as she watched from one side.
Compared to how she was with her previous husband, Mrs. Simmons felt that Olivia was much happier now that she was with her current husband.
Even though they still encountered a lot of trouble, this one never made Olivia worry.
On the other hand, the previous one always made Olivia cry.
From the looks of it, Mrs. Simmons could tell that Olivia felt grateful for her current husband. They were more like close friends compared to lovers.
However, Mrs. Simmons was happy as long as Olivia had someone to spend her life with. It would not matter if it was love.
As she was thinking about that, someone rushed in to push Mrs. Simmons away. Then, the person rushed before Olivia.
âPheebs, help me!â
Olivia was surprised by her. When she was about to push her away, she saw Jennie kneeling in front of her, her eyes red from crying. Furthermore, her hair was in a mess, and her clothes looked like they had been torn apart by someone.
âPlease help me, okay?â
âWhat are you doing? Get up.â
âPheebs, Iâm sorry. I shouldnât have done that to you, and I shouldnât have gotten mad at you. I also shouldnât yell at you, but please help me for the sake of our past relationship, okay?â
Jennie was very arrogant. If it was nothing big, she would not come and beg Olivia for help.
âGet up and tell me whatâs going on. Only then can I decide if I will help you.â
âYou can!â
Olivia was agitated. âIf you donât get up, I wonât help you.â
When Jennie heard that, she got up. âPheebs, please, I canât show my face around people anymore.â
âWhat happened?â
âI... Iâm being blackmailed.â
âBlackmailed?â
âI was sad last night so I went drinking at the bar. I got drunk and a guy came to flirt with me. I was so drunk I thought he was Ken, so... so...â
Jennie wailed as she told Olivia what happened. âWhen I woke up in the morning, I found out I slept with someone. I thought it was just a normal one-night stand. Even though I was devastated, I tried my best to forget it...
âBut I didnât expect him to take photos of me, and thereâs even a video!â
She sniffed and started crying even louder. âThey want me to give them ten million, or else theyâll post the video and photos online...
âI canât bring myself to face Ken anymore. I donât want him to know about this. I will be so embarrassed if that happens, so please help me...â
Olivia had mixed feelings. âYou should have the money, right? Didnât you sell the house? I also gave you the money for the atelier. Do you not have it?â
âBut... itâs not in my account yet. I only have three million right now, and they asked me to give it to them before midnight.â
Zac had not said a word the entire time, but now he suddenly interjectedâ Only that? Nothing else?â
Jennie bit her lip and looked at Olivia. âThereâs another thing. They asked me to bring the money to this one place myself. If not, they wonât give me the backup.â
âWhat? Do you have to do that yourself?â
Olivia frowned. âLetâs call the police.â
âNo! Pheebs, donât.â
Jennie looked at Olivia in terror. âI think they know you...â
