Andrew and Thomas were busy withpany affairs and had no time, so today only Madeline and Noel came to pick her up from prison.
Seeing Olivia, who had lost a lot of weight and was in worrying condition, both their eyes filled with concern.
Despite her anger over Olivia’s wrongdoings, it hadrgely dissipated.
The price she paid was too great. Pampered Olivia had never endured such hardship.
Madeline said, “Let’s go home.”
Olivia’s eyes welled up with tears, her face full of emotion. “Mom, thank you for still epting me.”
“Don’t talk such nonsense. You are my daughter. How could I not ept you?” Madeline wiped away her tears and patted her thin back.
She was the one at fault. It was her fault for not taking good care of her own daughter and for not raising her sister’s daughter well.
“Mom…” Olivia expertly embraced her, seeking affection.
Noel watched this scene from the side, but inexplicably thought of the scene where Natasha, with a cold expression, severed ties with her family at the birthday
party.
He wondered if there had ever been such a tender moment between Natasha and
their mom.
“Noel?” Olivia called out to a distracted Noel.
Noel snapped out of it and shook his head.
Never mind. His sister was miserable enough. Natasha wouldn’t be petty enough to be jealous over this.
He hugged her. “Wee home.”

Back home, Olivia couldn’t wait to take a shower, wishing she could wash away all the grime from prison.
As she passed Natasha’s room, she saw the open door.
She stopped and asked the maid behind her, “Is this being redecorated?”
The maid nodded. “Yes, Mrs. Madeline rk said the original room was too small, so she had the designer open up two adjacent rooms and redecorate it ording to Ms. Natasha rk’s preferences.”
Upon returning home, Olivia’s slightly improved mood instantly plummeted, and a flicker of hatred and mockery appeared in her eyes.
As expected of a biological daughter, Natasha was impossible to get rid of.
Olivia thought they were trying to win Natasha back because her reputation was ruined and she was deemed worthless.
Those two rooms next door happen to be her dance studio and piano room.
They started construction without even consulting her. Olivia thought, ‘Is this what Madeline meant by treating me like a biological daughter?‘
The maid wondered why Olivia had stopped. Just as she looked startled by the intense anger in Olivia’s eyes.
She quickly lowered her head.
up, she was
For some reason, she thought Olivia looked even more frightening after her trip abroad.

Andrew and Thomas didn’t appear during the day, but they both made time in the evening to return for Olivia’s weing party.
Seeing Olivia, whose face was full of shame, not even daring to walk too fast, and having personally cooked their favorite dishes, Andrew sighed. “That’s enough. Stop bothering. Let the servants do it.”

Thomas hadn’t visited Olivia in prison many times, but he was surprised to see herpletely changed in just two months.
Her former confidence and pride hadpletely transformed into cautiousness.
He couldn’t help but feel a little soft–hearted. “Have the kitchen prepare more nourishing food for you during this time,” he said.
With everyone willing to ease the tension, the atmosphere at the dinner table gradually improved. No one brought up the live broadcast that had ruined their reputations.
Olivia’s grip on her spoon loosened. Fortunately, the rk family was still as easy to manipte as ever.
Next, she should reconnect with her friends and admirers.
She could no longer dance. She had to make other ns for her future.
However, halfway through dinner, Andrew’s phone suddenly rang.
Immediately after, a furiouspany shareholder’s voice came from the other end of the line. “Mr. rk! Can you manage your family affairs properly? Thepany cannot withstand this kind of turmoil right now!”
“I don’t care! You must bear most of the losses from the stock price drop yourselves!”
One retort after another left Andrew dizzy from the scolding.
He frowned deeply. “What do you mean?”
The other party replied, “What I mean? Just look at today’s news!”
Just then, Thomas’s phone next to him also rang. His assistant’s anxious voice came through, “Mr. rk! It’s over! Ms. Olivia was caught on camera upon her release from prison!”
His voice was loud, and others next to Thomas also heard it.
Everyone suddenly focused their gaze on the pale Olivia.

When Olivia was taken away for investigation on live broadcast, the public could only be certain of her giarism. However, the authorities never announced anything about the subsequent act of hiring someone tomit assault.
The rk family spent arge sum of money to pull strings. Even with rumors circting within the industry, the general public did not know that Olivia had truly served time in prison. <fn0af9> Get full chapters from find?novel</fn0af9>
The rk family publicly stated that they sent an apology letter, indicating that Olivia would go abroad for a period of time to improve her professional skills and correct her mistakes.
Thomas also bought some celebrity scandals to quickly cover up the incident.
No matter how many rumors circted, without evidence, they firmly insisted Olivia had gone abroad.
They never expected that once Olivia she was released, the news would spiral out of control.
Before Olivia’s incident, the rk family enterprise often used her fame as a genius dancer to project an image of harmony and affection.
News of her giarism had already caused stock prices to fall, and now the revtion of her imprisonment was adding insult to injury for the already precarious rk family.
The previously warm dinner atmosphere instantly turned cold.
Andrew red at Olivia.
It was all because of her. All his tireless efforts to save thepany had been in
vain.
Thomas’s face also darkened.
He was in no mood to y the good brother anymore. He took the call and hurried to his study for a crisis management meeting.

Madeline’s smile froze. She held her spoon awkwardly, unsure of what to say.
Distraught, Noel flipped over his phone, which kept buzzing with messages asking, “Is your sister really going to jail?” and “Did she really bribe a driver to hit someone?” He then grimly pushed his bowl away. “I’m not eating!”
The more he had bragged about how amazing Olivia was then, the more humiliated he felt now from the bacsh.
The thought of going to school tomorrow made Noel want to run away.
Olivia looked at the dining table, where only she and Madeline remained. Anger swirled in her eyes.
If it weren’t for the good–for–nothing members of the rk family, she wouldn’t have exposed.
She thought, ‘How dare they give me attitude? Didn’t they coddle and adore me
back then?‘
Olivia remembered Natasha’s smile before she left, and her heart turned cold.
She told her to stay close to the rk family, but she never said she would help
her.
Now it seemed her twisted pleasure was to asionally stir up their crumbling family bond.
She thought, ‘This time it’s jail, what will be next?‘
Olivia knocked over her te and abruptly stood up.
She couldn’t be this passive.
If the rk family was destined to fall, she must secure more leverage for herself before that happened.
The maid, carrying newly prepared dishes from the kitchen, looked at the empty seats at the table with confusion. Then, as if realizing something, she nced at Olivia, whose expression was grim.
She thought, ‘Oh, so Olivia didn’t go abroad. She went to jail.‘
They were hiding in the kitchen just now and had a lot to gossip about.
