Chapter 5
Olivia returned home. The moment she entered the door, she saw two heads sitting in front of the computer, staring at the computer intently for some reason. “What are you guys doing?”
Kate Thomas looked back. “Oh, you’re back? Do you know that you’ve become the hot, trending topic? Many posts are criticizing you all over the internet right now and North is helping you deal with it.”
Kate Thomas was Olivia’s best friend, and she was also the only person Olivia had told about her return to the country this time.
Upon hearing that, Olivia was completely bewildered. “What posts?”
She glanced at the screen and immediately saw the report about the collapse of moral values. “I was rescuing a person! Why does the report claim that I am stealing?! Would anybody steal anything so openly in broad daylight?!”
Kate pursed her lips. “You should continue reading. Those saying that you are a thief are being polite. There are also some saying…”
The words were on the tip of her tongue, but she glanced at the little boy in front of her, who was not even seven years old. Then, she swallowed her words. In the end, she leaned close to Olivia’s ear and whispered the indecent words, “Some claimed you were molesting him.”
Olivia was so angry that she nearly cursed out loud. “Who could have taken my actions so out of context?! Did they not see me rescuing the man?! Didn’t they see me following the ambulance to the hospital? Didn’t they see me paying for that man’s medical fees from my own wallet? I’m such a gorgeous woman; how can they paint me in such a terrible light?!” The more she vented, the angrier she got. “North, investigate who on earth reported that article and block his account! Just because I
failed to browse the almanac before I left the house today, I seem to have met all the bad luck in the world!”
North made a noncommittal sound in response, his small hands flying across the keyboard without stopping. He was extremely focused, and the screen was filled with all sorts of constantly changing codes. It was confusing to look at.
Just then, Kate looked over at Olivia and said, “By the way, didn’t you go for an interview? How did it go?”
Before the topic was mentioned, Olivia still had her emotions under control. However, the moment it was brought up, she burned with fury. “Don’t bring it up! I was so pissed off!”
Kate frowned slightly. “What’s the matter? The president of the Nolan Group, Eugene Nolan, is a renowned businessman in the industry. Rumors have it that he is both handsome and wealthy—he is the most eligible bachelor across the entire Summer City! Most importantly, I heard that he has been looking for a woman—” Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Olivia waved her hands, feeling a headache coming on. “Shut up! That b*stard isn’t as great as you say he is!”
Upon hearing that, North, who was sitting in front of the computer, pricked up his ears to listen and the frown on his face gradually deepened.
On the other hand, Olivia sighed and recounted her entire experience during the interview. At the end of her story, she concluded angrily, “He claimed that my moral character was poor and even harshly threatened to end my career! What a joke! If I, Olivia Maxwell, want to find a job, who wouldn’t be scrambling over themselves to hire me? Who does he think he is to end my career?!”
Kate patted her back gently. “Alright; there, there. Don’t be angry. Let’s have North teach him a lesson.”
Olivia nodded her head in response to those words.
At that moment, North felt emotionally exhausted. That daddy of mine sure doesn’t know the meaning of digging his own grave.
To be honest, he had already investigated the truth behind his birth. His mom had told him that his dad had died a long time ago. She also asked him not to bring the subject up and forbade him from asking about it. However, he did not believe her. After investigating behind her back for a long time, his investigation led him to Eugene Nolan.
Taking advantage of Nathan’s family issues, he coaxed his mom to return to the country and tried every trick in the book to cajole his mom into attending an interview at the Nolan Group. He wanted to arrange for his mom to be next to his dad. If he let them meet each other every day, then it was only a matter of time before they fell for each other.
However, the two of them had gone and done it. Despite having a good hand of cards, they destroyed the entire game.
“Rest assured, Mommy. I’ll get you your revenge,” he replied, looking up at her with a solemn expression.
Upon hearing those words, Olivia leaned over and kissed him on the cheek. “Aww, North loves me the most. Tell me; how are you going to help me get my revenge?”
He looked at her earnestly. “How much money do you want him to lose?”
She mulled over it and replied, “I spent around five minutes inside and outside his office. So… 50 million.”
As North’s small hands busily flew across the computer, a message popped up suddenly. It was a message from the Will-o'-Wisp Headquarters. ‘There’s a large order to locate a genius doctor by the name of Skye Bailey. The upfront fee is 10 million. Do you accept?’
His small hands paused for a moment. Frowning slightly, he typed out a few words in quick succession. ‘Do you have any information on the poster?’
‘It’s a guy named Curtis Wood. There’s not much other information on him.’
Curtis Wood? That name sure sounds familiar. That’s right; isn’t that the name of Daddy’s special assistant?
Then, North lifted the corners of his mouth in an evil smile, looking like a little devil as he typed out his reply: ‘Rejected.’
How the tables have turned. After offending Mommy so thoroughly just now, you turn around and beg for Mommy’s help? Find somebody else to help you out; Mommy is busy.
All these years, they had been working while keeping a low profile. Therefore, even though Olivia constantly treated many diseases and saved many people, nobody was aware that she was actually the famous genius doctor, Skye Bailey.
Right now, I better teach that clueless daddy of mine a lesson.
