Chapter 829 "Pride?"
Sam nodded his little head and said, "Yes.
You said youâd look worthless if you forgave him.
So, it means you donât want to give in, right? "You think he hurt you so much in the past that you don't want to forgive him, but no one asked you to forgive, Godmother."
Olivia was puzzled.
"How can I accept him if I donât forgive him?"
"Godmother, maybe you can try differentiating your forgiveness and feelings for him.
Dating him doesnât mean forgiving him.
The mistakes that have been made can't be forgiven no matter what.
"It's like how Iâll never be able to forgive my dad.
However, if my dad gets better and starts loving me enough to give his life for me, I won't mind calling him âDadâ."
After hearing these words, Olivia froze and looked at Sam in disbelief.
It had never occurred to her that a child of ten could see things more clearly than she did.
She never expected to need a childâs words to enlighten her...
Sam shook Oliviaâs hand when he noticed she was in a daze and said, "Godmother, I'm not saying this because I want you to accept Godfather.
After all, Iâm not speaking on behalf of him.
I just donât want to see you making things difficult for yourself."
Olivia sighed and forced a smile.
"Letâs go and have some ice cream, shall we?"
"Yeah, let's go."
Maybe Sam was right, but she did not want to decide so soon.
She had to wait until she got an answer about Mr.M.
When she returned from the hospital the following day, she called the atelier and left Sam with Mrs.Simmons before heading out with the lunch box.
Since that day, she had not seen Zac again.
She told him to come back for dinner, but he never did.
It was probably because he had not thought it through.
Thus, she decided to go to Quinton Group to clear the misunderstanding between him and her.
Moreover, she wanted to ask him about Jessâ matter from four years ago.
After all, she felt she needed to give Sam an answer.
She drove to Quinton Group and met Elaine in the lobby.
They got into the elevator together, keeping a distance.
Suddenly, Elaine spoke, "Mrs.Quinton, thereâs something I want to tell you."
"What is it?"
"Itâs not convenient here.Follow me later."
Elaine, perhaps afraid Olivia would not take it seriously, added, "Itâs really important."
Olivia nodded but did not think too much about it.
When they arrived, Elaine led her to a storeroom.
After observing the surroundings and ensuring no one was around, Elaine called her in.
"What can't be said outside?"
Although she seemed to have overcome her fear of the dark last time, she did not like the enclosed environment.
"Mrs.Quinton, I remember the favor you did me by helping Fabian and me.
So, in return, I also want to tell you what Dorothy has been up to recently."
Olivia frowned slightly as she beckoned Elaine to continue.
"Since the video of Mr.Clarins and her was exposed online, she suspected you were behind it.
So, she wants to get back at you by chasing Zac out of Quinton Group.
"Recently, she has been planning on redistributing the shares.I heard Mr.Quinton seems to have agreed to it and has also started to persuade other shareholders recently.I think...Zac doesnât have enough shares to give him enough say."
Olivia observed Elaine before asking, "Are you telling me this to repay me?"
"Well, I know you might not believe me, but I think I should tell you.
As for whether you choose to believe it or not, itâs your business."
That caught Olivia by surprise.
She always thought Elaine might harm her in return, but unexpectedly, Elaine was sharing information with her.
That made her want to keep observing Elaine.
It seemed she would not need to use the video of Elaine and Fabian for now.
