Marrying
Chapter 503
Valerie continued, âAnd about the Anderson family, Iâll keep Olivia company as before.â
Matthew agreed one by one. Olivia had watched them grow up since they were kids. If he could strengthen their relationship, he would be happy to do so.
After all, Olivia also liked Valerie, hoping Valerie could spend more time with her.
Valerie looked at Matthew and saw that he had completely forgotten the topic of where he was going. She heaved a sigh of relief.
Two days later, Olivia was discharged from the hospital. Everyone went to pick her up, including Valerie, who had been at the hospital to stay with Olivia for the past two days and had put in a lot of effort to prepare every meal. Oliviaâs originally disappointed mood gradually improved under Valerieâs meticulous care.
The group arrived at the hospital entrance, and the Anderson familyâs cars came to pick them up.
Valerie held Oliviaâs arm. âOlivia, I will visit you often after you get home. Please follow the doctorâs instructions and recuperate well.â
Olivia nodded with a smile. âAlright, alright. I love listening to your stories. Iâll be happy if you come and visit me more oftenâ¦â
Before Olivia could finish her sentence, a figure suddenly flashed before her eyes, falling to her knees with a thud!
Her hair was disheveled and her expression was miserable. She no longer had the usual attitude of a superstar. It was Angel.
Olivia was shocked!
When she saw it was Angel, she pulled a long face. âWhy are you here? What do you mean by this?â
Angel looked pitiful. âOlivia, I know I was wrong. Iâll get along with Valerie in the future. I was insensible in the past. I used to hate Valerieâs guts because of Matthew. But I thought about it back home and understood we were each for our love. Forced love wonât be happy. Matthew wonât accept me, and I wonât go to a dead end again!
âOlivia, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me, okay?â
Olivia looked at Angel without saying anything. She had watched Angel grow up and always believed that girls were kindâhearted, but she did not expect that after these few encounters, she would discover Angelâs other side, which had blown her away!
Seeing Angel on her knees, Olivia had no idea what Angel was up to. Angelâs pitiful and red eyes won some of Oliviaâs sympathy, but Olivia didnât want to talk to her when recalling what Angel had done.
Seeing Olivia not reacting, Angel felt anxious and quickly pinched her thigh. The pain forced out a few tears, and Angel immediately sobbed silently.
Owen raised his eyebrows and spoke up for Angel. âMom, Angel is a celebrity. With her on her kneels here, people might see it and gossip. Besides, Angel has realized her mistake and gone straight. Please give her another chance. After all, what she did was excusable.â
Olivia said coldly, âExcusable? You think you can bully others just because youâre excusable?â
Angel quickly shook her head and pretended to be weak, wondering why Olivia had become so stubborn. In the past, when Angel shed a few tears, Olivia couldnât bear to be harsh on her. It seemed that Olivia had indeed forgotten about her for the sake of Valerie,
Seeing she couldnât work it on Olivia, Angel looked at Owen. âMr. Owen, please help me. I know I was wrong, reallyâ¦â
Owen deliberately pulled a long face. âAngel, do you dare to make the same mistake again?â
âI wonât. I promise. Blinded by love, Iâve done stupid things before. Iâve thought it through now. Itâs impossible between Matthew and me.â
As she spoke, Angel turned around to look at Valerie. âValerie, Iâm sorry. Itâs all my fault. Iâve regretted making things difficult for you time and time again. I swear that I wonât do this again. Please forgive me!â
Valerie sneered in her heart. âAngel, your acting skills have improved a lot recently! Those tears were so real and touching. I might have been soft- hearted in the past. But when I see that look on your face now, I find it ironic. You want to play the sympathy card with Olivia, huh? No way! Whatâs the big deal of pretending to be innocent and weak? I can do that quite well!
Valerie bent and pretended to be concerned. She leaned close to Olivia and persuaded, âOlivia, please just forgive Miss Santos, though she slapped me impulsively the day before yesterday. Since she knows what she did wrong, I wonât take it to heartâ¦â
As soon as Valerie said that, the surrounding people were shocked.

Oliviaâs face darkened even more. âWhat? Angel slapped you! How dare she do such a terrible thing!â
Angel was also dumbfounded. âValerie, donât slander me. When did I slap you? I never did. That day, I clearlyâ¦â
Halfway through her sentence, Angel suddenly stopped. That day, Valerie had indeed hit her in the hospital, but at the moment, with people around, if outsiders knew that she, Angel, the superstar, was slapped in the face, she would probably become a laughingstock.
Angel hesitated. The nurse behind Olivia said hesitantly, âThat day, I passed nearby and heard Miss Santos and Miss Warren arguing. Someone got slapped.â
When Olivia heard that, she slammed her walking stick hard. âAngel, Iâm so disappointed in you!â
Angel freaked out. âOliviaâ¦â
âShut up. What a shame to have loved someone like you for all these years! Those who donât know the whole thing might think I taught you to be arrogant and despotic! Angel, I think the person you should apologize to the most is not me, but Val!â
Angel was dumbfounded. She looked at Oliviaâs unyielding attitude and knew it would not be easy to fool her this time.
She could only bite the bullet and turn to Valerie. Gritting her teeth, she raised her hand and slapped herself. âValerie, Iâm sorry. Please forgive
meâ¦â
