Chapter 516

When Louis walked towards Olivia, he placed his palm on her thin shoulders and squeezed earnestly.

“Olivia, the Cruise family is counting on you.”

“Dad, don’t worry. I won’t disappoint you,” said Olivia.

Before she could finish her sentence, her phone suddenly rang. When she saw that it was a call from

Louis, the corners of her lips curled up involuntarily. “I have to take this call.”

With that, she grabbed her phone and quickly ran upstairs to her room.

As soon as the call was picked up, Louis’s voice sounded on the other end, “Olivia.” “Louis,” Olivia

called out softly.

Louis took the initiative to ask about Marina’s invitation to the banquet. “You seem to be very close with

Miss Jones lately.”

Olivia was slightly stunned. Her expression was calm, but there was an unclear emotion in her eyes.

Her voice was still as gentle as before. “Miss Jones and I hit it off very well. Not only did she accept me

as her g*ddaughter, but she also agreed to help me support the Cruise family.”

“Louis, to be honest, I still feel like this is all a dream.”

There was no hint of humility in what was said. They were honest and grounded in truth.

In the past, Olivia never dreamed that she would one day be related to the Jones family of Aureliana,

let alone be taken in as Marina’s goddaughter.

She thought that perhaps the heavens finally felt sorry for her.

The heavens couldn’t bear to let her be bullied by Rachel over and over again. She also knew that this

was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Rachel was currently doing well in Seaxas because of the sugar daddy behind her.

Whether it was a sugar daddy, who was worth 20 billion dollars, or the richest family in Seaxas, the

Johnson family, these two supporters were not worth mentioning in front of the Jones family of

Aureliana.

She wanted to see how Rachel would fight her in the future!

Upon hearing her words, Louis fell into a short moment of contemplation.

After what seemed like an eternity, a shadowy spark flashed in his eyes, as if he had finally made up

his mind. “Olivia, when I’m done with my work, I’ll find time to visit your parents and propose a wedding

date,” he said.

Olivia did not seem too shocked to learn this. Everything seemed to fall smoothly

within her expectations.

“Sure.”

After hanging up the phone, Olivia leaned against the window and looked out at the endless night.

The next morning.

After a short gathering, the Chamber of Commerce of Seaxas announced the end of the meeting.

Rachel and Lucas silently followed behind Old Mr. Johnson.

They watched as the people of the other three families left.

At this moment, loud footsteps came from behind.

Rachel’s eyes moved slightly. She turned around and saw a group walking straight toward her.

of people

Jimmy and Landon walked in front.

David followed close behind them. Wearing a black suit and tie, he gave off an air of icy austerity.

There was an aura of authority about him.

He had thick brows and intense black eyes. His dark, lake-like eyes made it hard to see clearly or make

any guesses. They posed a threat of certain death.

He glanced over as if he could feel Rachel’s eyes on him. His eyes betrayed an underlying softness.

Arthur noticed that Rachel was in a daze and couldn’t help but cough softly.

Rachel suddenly came back to her senses.

They saw Thomas and Old Mr. Shain standing in front of them.

“Thomas, it’s been many years since we last met. You’ve really become more and more promising.”

Old Mr. Johnson smiled kindly and looked at Thomas with admiration.

Thomas remained calm while he apologized, ” Old Mr. Johnson, I’m sorry for coming back so abruptly.

I’ll visit you in a few days.”

When Old Mr. Johnson heard that, the smile on his face widened. “Alright, I’ll prepare some nice food

and good wine. Have a good meal with me.”

“Alright.” Thomas’s lips quirked up slightly. He looked at Rachel with unconcealed admiration.

It seemed to everyone inside that the sun was shining brilliantly, yet the temperature had fallen

significantly. Everyone could sense the oppressive presence of the air, and it made them shudder.
