“Tell me everything, starting from when you first met Olivia.” Natasha sat back down on the
sofa.
Roderick knelt tremblingly before the two of them, the bad premonition he’d had since losing contact with Olivia finally bing reality.
He resignedly began recalling memories. “Olivia and I…”
Things were just as Sadie had predicted. Roderick’s appearance was a scam from the start.
After her mother’s death, Olivia moved into the rk family home. Materially, her life was many times better than before. However, psychologically, she was still that little girl covered in bruises from domestic abuse, envying her younger cousin’s sun–drenched happiness.
During her first year living with the rk family, she often had nightmares.
In her dreams were her father’s menacing face and fists, along with her mother’s shrill cries and unwilling, resentful gaze.
She kept telling her, “That was the life you were supposed <i>to </i>have. Madeline owes me, and Andrew owes me too. Whatever you demand from them is only fair.”
“You must live better than her daughter. I have already lost. You cannot lose again. Olivia, I love you. Escape, escape…”
Whenever Olivia saw Natasha, she was immediately reminded of her mother’s mangled face
at the car crash scene.
Every time she smiled, she would hear the cries of her mother and the little girl.
The immense emptiness within her made Olivia resort to any means to grasp more, until shepletely reced Natasha,
She seeded. She took away her parents, her older brother, her younger brother, and gained a new<i>, </i>perfect family.
However, she could never carn that young man’s exclusive favor.
The Wright family and the rk family were close. Lucas and Natasha were childhood sweethearts, and their bond was deep from childhood.
That pure bond between them seemed to mock her, reminding her that she was always an outsider, a monster forcing her way into their circle.

She had also grown up with him. But it was Natasha who had won his favor.

Olivia put a lot of effort into Lucas, until that time on Mount Misty, she saw him rush back without a second thought, risking his life to save Natasha.
She suddenly realized that she could never get the kind of love Lucas had for Natasha.
But it didn’t matter. If she couldn’t have it, Natasha shouldn’t dream of getting it either.
The moment Olivia met Roderick, she knew her chance had arrived.
Natasha wanted to escape the rk family, but Olivia wouldn’t allow her to do so. What Olivia carried was her mother’s life.
Since she refused to stay home and suffer, she had to speed up and findpensation
elsewhere.
With her guidance, Roderick sessfully befriended Lucas.
Roderick had excellent appearance, personal ability, and a well–fabricated reputation, which wouldn’t make anyone find her association with him strange.
However, his family was ordinary, and they were all parasites, making it easy for Olivia to manipte them.
The chance to date beautiful women for money, even if it meant losing his status and eventually leaving the country, was too tempting to resist. Thepensation Olivia could offer him was more than he could hope to earn in a lifetime, even if he started over from
scratch.
Roderick quickly chose the shortcut without much hesitation.
Olivia didn’t need him to confront or attack anyone. She only needed him to be a perfect, unassable person.
Although he had to constantly act like a good person, it was the most glorious and triumphant period of Roderick’s life.
Using his status as a friend, Roderick subtly instilled in Lucas’s mind the image that he deeply loved Olivia, and that she was more important than his own life.
Furthermore, with him mediating, their rtionship genuinely improved significantly.
Although Olivia could not win Lucas’s love, the effort she put in over the years made her understand him better than anyone else. Perfection was his greatest weakness.

Lucas’s growth had been smooth sailing. He had to be someone people looked up to, wless, and beyond reproach.
Emotionally, he was somewhat naive and indecisive. Of course, there was his unrevealed selfishness.
Otherwise, when Olivia offered to help Natasha reconcile with her family, he wouldn’t have actually wanted to facilitate their reconciliation.
After Lucas bore the burden of his friend’s death, he couldn’t ignore Roderick’s girlfriend, no matter his personal considerations.
After all, Roderick had entrusted him to take care of her before he died.
After Roderick left, the false anger and drama disyed by Roderick’s bribed family toward Olivia made him feel even more sympathetic. He knew that he was the one who had taken Roderick out to sea–and that Roderick died saving him.
With so many witnesses that day, he couldn’t be an ungrateful person.
Fate thus deviated from its course.
Every time Olivia called him away, he would repeatedly pick up his phone to monitor Natasha’s situation and gauge her mood.
Yet the next time, he would still leave.
Olivia watched them drift apart with a cold gaze, feeling an inexpressible delight in her heart.
She liked Lucas. She liked his kindness and unique tenderness towards Natasha.
Even now, it seemed unremarkable. She still didn’t want to let go.
Olivia thought, ‘Since this is our fate, we might as well all suffer together.‘
Roderick continued, “That’s how it is. I took the money and went abroad. She forbade me from ever returning, but would send me money periodically.”
In fact, Roderick and the Watson family had all harbored even greater greed, but Olivia was truly vicious.
They also feared that she might be ruthless and resort to killing. After all, she was capable of being so wicked even to her nominal sister, to whom she owed a favor. She also possessed the patience to spend so much time orchestrating a grand scheme.

While acting as her love interest, Roderick would asionally feel a chilling sensation, like daggers in his back.
Olivia had deeply traumatized him.
Sadie pped Roderick across the face. Unsatisfied, she pped him again.
She pped him repeatedly until Roderick’s face was swollen beyond recognition.
Sadie said, “Olivia is toxic, and you’re no good either.”
No one could have imagined that the once honorable and upright Roderick was so rotten and vile on the inside.
After his “death,” countless people glorified him further. Those he had saved naturally became allies of Olivia, causing endless trouble for Natasha.
Emilia’s death had already almost crushed Sadie once. Roderick’s incident was undoubtedly a nightmare revisited.
Sadie became furious recalling how Lucas and his group used their supposed kindness as a
weapon.
Roderick didn’t dare to resist.
He had just learned that Olivia was jailed. When he was being beaten, the people guarding outside thought something had happened and even knocked on the door to check.
Those bodyguards all carried guns, and the formidable aura about them suggested they were battle–hardened.
If he dared to fight back, he wouldn’t be able to walk out of here in one piece.
Roderick was crying uncontrobly, his face bruised and swollen, havingpletely lost the elegant demeanor he had when he first entered.
He kept apologizing <i>to </i>Natasha. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I know I was wrong. I had no choice, Olivia forced me. I was just following her script. Miss rk, spare me, please. I’ll do anything.”
When he uttered thest suggestive words, he instinctively tried to bat his eyshes like he did with other patrons.
Unfortunately, with his current appearance, he only looked ridiculous.
Sadie kicked him again with disdain. “What an eyesore.”

She looked at Natasha. “What do you say? Bring him back to the country to expose that
woman?<b>” </b>
Natasha’s scrutinizing gaze fell on Roderick, “If you want me to let you go, what leverage will you use to beg me?”
Roderick and Olivia had been together for a long time. Even after their breakup, he still managed to get Olivia to send him money regrly. She didn’t believe he trusted Olivia to the point of beingpletely unguarded. <fne7ed> Checktest chapters at Find~Novel</fne7ed>
