Chapter 85
Chapter 85
Olivia found that the Taylor family’s reasoning was rather illogical. She did not want to argue with them
about things that did not matter. Whether or not Amelia and Samuel were biased towards her was no
longer her concern.
Her purpose ining this time was just to clear her name.
Without emotional maniption, no one could harm her.
Seeing that Samuel was getting more and more outrageous, Liam cleared his throat and said,
“Enough, what’s the point of dwelling on matters between a father and daughter?”
As he spoke, he patted the seat next to him, beckoning Olivia. “Come and sit next to me.”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room was shocked.
Especially Yvonne, who was beside Liam. Her eyes were as dark as the night. Hadn’t Liam already
given up on Olivia? Why was he suddenly changing his stance?
Olivia raised an eyebrow, casting a meaningful look towards Liam.

Samuel could not stand to see Liam being good to Olivia. He said unhappily, “Liam, do you still hope
for her to marry into the Turner family?”
He sneered, his expression full of disdain. “It’s not that I look down on Olivia, but even without the Stars
Bay incident, Ethan would never be with her. Even though she’s my bloodline, I still need to be fair.”
“Does she understand the etiquette of a wealthy family, how to interact with others? Does she
understand the intricacies of various prominent families? Does she possess any notable talents? Let’s
talk about the violin, has she even touched one before?”
At this point, the contempt in Samuel’s eyes was undisguised. “For someone who can’t even measure
up to societal standards, how could the Turner family possibly ept her?”
“Alright, that’s enough. Stop talking,” Liam furrowed his brows. “Have you ever heard of someone
speaking ill of their own daughter like this?”
Speaking of his daughter, Samuel calmed down a little.
He hadn’t always disliked Olivia. After all, she was his own daughter, and there was no inherent conflict
between them. Even when he knew that she had been found and brought back, he initially held
thoughts of making amends.
He nned to give her a sum of money, around 200 thousand dors. This sum wouldn’t mean much
to the Taylor family, but for Olivia, who had been living outside for so long, it was a considerable
amount.
It was just that she had been brought up by a vige doctor with limited horizons. What kind of
perspective could she possibly have? If he gave her that amount of money, she would be overjoyed.
Give her a sum of money and find a rich family for her to marry into. She did not expect to be rich. She
would just follow behind the Taylor Group and pick up some rice grains. That would be enough for her
to live a rich life.
Samuel felt that he had given her enough money and fulfilled his responsibilities.
However, Olivia was not satisfied!
Liam had said that he would give her shares of the Taylor Group, but she did not even reject it and
directly asked for it.
Olivia had even dared to ask for the shares of Taylor Group. While Samuel only had a 5% stake in the
company, she was dared to ask for 3%, as if she wouldn’t be overwhelmed.
There was also the engagement with the Turner family.
The Turner family’s matriarch should be someone elegant and sophisticated like Emma, a refined and
cultureddy who had studied abroad and had a broad perspective. And yet, Olivia, a rustic girl from a
small vige, actually dared to dream of such a match. She better took a good look in the mirror to see
what she looked like.
“Please, have a seat.” Liam gestured to Olivia. Then he turned to Samuel. “You should say less. Why
are you two acting like enemies? You have to act like a father.”
Samuel frowned. “I don’t want to be enemies with her either. It’s just that she’s so out of line. Look at
what’s happened in our family since she returned; all the bad things that have happened in our family
are rted to her.”
Upon hearing this, Olivia could not help butugh out loud.
All these things that happened in the Taylor family were caused by
Yvonne and Emma, yet they had somehow shifted the me onto her. The perpetrator was innocent,
and the victim was being treated as the guilty party. Truly, they were finding excuses to me her for
anything. “That’s enough.” Liam frowned. “Everyone, let’s calm down. We’re all family. There’s no need
to be so hostile.”
When Samuel heard this, his face twisted. He did not expect Liam to care so much about Olivia and
even speak up for her.
He looked down at Emma’s pale face and thought to himself, “I can’t let Olivia stay any longer. She has
to be married off. If I let her stay in the Taylor family, Emma might be affected by her negative influence
and be ruined!”
Thinking of this, Samuel said, “Olivia must be married off!”
He turned to Olivia, speaking with a tone of benevolence. “You’re not young anymore. Get married and
have children sooner rather thanter. Stop daydreaming about the Turner family. That’s not something
you can aspire to. I have a few good choices for you. They’re all graduates of prestigious universities,
ambitious young men. Although their family backgrounds might be less privileged, they’re a better
match for you.”
“Both of you were raised in ordinary families. In the future, you’ll have moremon ground to share,
and thepany will train him and promote him to be a department manager. As long as the
Taylor family exists, you two will always have food on the table.”
Those who didn’t know better would think that he was talking to his servant.
It had the tone of rewarding someone for their service.
Emma, who was leaning against Amelia’s chest, heard Samuel’s words and a glint of light shed in
her eyes.
That would be perfect. As long as Olivia married a junior employee, she would always be inferior to her,
having to live ording to her whims.
Amelia was quite satisfied with Samuel’s arrangement. She leisurely spoke as if her tone filled with
concern for Olivia. “Samuel is right. With both the Turner and Taylor families supporting you, the two of
you will have a good life. Also, in the future, you should get along well with Emma. When Emma
marries Ethan, as long as she speaks well of you, and promotes you a bit, it will be enough to benefit
you for a lifetime.”
After saying that, Olivia remained silent.
After speaking and seeing Olivia remain silent with a pensive expression, Amelia felt she was
unappreciative and couldn’t help but scold her. “Are you still thinking about Ethan? I’m saying this for
your own good. You should appreciate what’s appropriate for your status. While you’re only worthy of
simple meals, don’t even think about having extravagant delicacies. Ethan is beyond your reach. You
better get a grip on yourself, find a reputable family, and settle down. When you graduate in the future,
the Taylor family will provide money for you to buy a house and you can stay in Evervale.”
Amelia felt she had done all she could. If Olivia still did not know how to appreciate kindness, she
would not care about her anymore.
She had intended to give Olivia a warning. So, she nced at Liam and asked, “Liam, when are you
going to retrieve Olivia’s shares? Since shecks the ability, giving her such arge sum of money will
make her arrogant. Her character will change, and giving her several hundred thousand dors will be
enough.”
In fact, Liam had wanted to say something just now, but Samuel and Amelia had been speaking rapidly,
making him stunned and unable to interrupt.
Liam was an experienced individual; how could he change his mind so easily? Just a few days ago, he
had wanted to give up on Olivia, but now he was embracing her again. There had to be a reason for it.
Unfortunately, Samuel and Amelia were too naive to notice.
On the other hand, Yvonne was much smarter. She wouldn’t act rashly without understanding the
situation. Thus, she didn’t say anything. Liam finally had a chance to speak. He red at Samuel and
ignored Amelia. Instead, he looked at Olivia gently and asked, “It’s been quite a while. Is Mr. Sullivan
still waiting outside? Should I invite him in for a seat?”
Mr. Sullivan? Who was that?
Samuel suddenly had a bad feeling. In his panic, he almost knocked over his cup.
