Chapter 52
Olivia went back to work, immersing herself in her work so that she could forget Everett.
Forget the pain.
The next morning, she got up early and went to work, but as soon as she got in the car, her phone rang.
Olivia took the phone, looked at the screen, and pressed the answer button.
“Mom-”
“Olivia, come back soon.Something happened at home!”
With a crying voice, Olivia’s foot, which had just stepped on the accelerator, immediately stepped on the brake.
Then she asked, “Mom, what’s wrong?”
“Your father lost five million, and now the debtors are at home!”
Olivia’s face turned pale.
Five million was not not a small sum.
“Mom, don’t worry.Calm down.I’m telling you, call the police now and don’t let them hurt you.I’ll book a plane ticket right away”
“Okay! Okay! Come back quickly!”
“Ok!”
Olivia hung up the phone and asked Frank for a leave.
She told him that there was an emergency at home and she had to go back immediately.
Frank agreed and asked if she needed help.
Olivia said that she didn’t need it for the time being, but she would definitely call him if she needed it.
Frank was satisfied with the answer.
He was afraid that she would be too polite to him.
livia quickly booked a flight back to C City.
She rushed home without stopping.
Before she reached the door, she heard the chaos sound from the house and her mother’s screams.
Her face changed immediately and she ran in.
“Stop!”
The men who were smashing things stopped and looked at her.
Elizabeth and George, who were huddled in a corner, pointed at Olivia and said, “Our daughter is back.She is a very powerful
designer.She will pay you off, definitely!”
Afew men were tall, strong and full of banditry.
They were not easy to provoke at first sight.
One of the men with a scar on his forehead looked even scarier.
He threw the microwave on the floor and looked up and down at Olivia,”Are you George’s daughter?”
“I am Olivia walked over with her hands clenched.
Her usually clean and tidy home was in a mess, and one could imagine the brutal destruction it had suffered before she came
back.
The man pointed to George, who was shivering in the corner and didn’t dare to speak, and said, “Your father owes me five
million dollars, could you deal with it?”
Olivia looked at George.
“Dad, is that true?”
George looked into Olivia’s eyes and his lips trembled.
He was unable to utter a word.
Five million.
He knew exactly about her daughter.
She couldn’t have so much money.
Elizabeth saw that he was silent, so she slapped him angrily.
“George, say it! Do you want to die?”
George was shocked by her beating and said, “It’s five million...But I didn’t owe that much at first! When I first started, I kept
winning, winning more than a million dollars, and I wanted to stop winning for another million dollars.However, I didn’t expect I’m
so unlucky that I didn’t win.Instead, I put more money into it.I wanted to win back all that I put into it and in the end...I lost more
and more...”
At the end of the conversation, George was almost silent, and Olivia closed her eyes.
Before she got married, her dad never gambled, but ever since she married Everett, her dad learned to gamble.
