Chapter 176


    Matthew had received the favor of the Cruise family many years ago, so he had been secretly helping


    the Cruise family all these years.


    At this moment, when Matthew heard Olivia’s words, he put down the knife and fork in his hand, and


    slowly wiped the corners of his mouth. Matthew looked up at Olivia. “Olivia, to be honest, this matter


    was too sudden. Two minutes after I received the notice, your father was taken away. I don’t know


    much about the details.”


    Hearing this, Olivia clenched her fists under the table. Her nails dug into her palms as Olivia tried her


    best to remain calm.


    “Uncle Matthew, is there no room for negotiation? To be honest, ever since my father was taken away,


    my mother has been bedridden. I really don’t know what to do.”


    Even though Olivia tried her best to control her emotions, her voice still revealed the panic in her heart.


    Matthew looked at Olivia and pondered for a moment. “Olivia, think about it. Did your family offend


    someone recently?”


    Hearing this, Olivia frowned and fell into deep thought.


    The current Cruise family was far inferior to the Cruise family five years ago. Otherwise, Olivia wouldn’t


    have returned to Louis’s side.


    Moreover, ever since the news of Olivia’s engagement to Louis spread, many people had offered the


    Cruise family olive branches. The Cruise family had used this opportunity to climb up. How could they


    offend someone at this critical moment?


    “Or have you offended anyone recently?” Matthew looked at Olivia meaningfully.


    Olivia met Matthew’s gaze. Rachel’s face immediately appeared in Olivia’s mind.


    Olivia was about to get engaged to Louis and was on good terms with people everywhere. Why would


    Olivia seek revenge at this juncture?


    The only possibility was Rachel!


    Even though Rachel was a first–ss Cultural Relic Restorer and a special advisor of the Cultural


    Relics Bureau, she was not capable of doing such


    a thing or secretly targeting the Cruise family.


    Therefore, Olivia quickly denied this possibility.


    “Uncle Matthew, I really don’t know who the Cruise family has offended recently. Can you please ask


    around so that we can personally visit and apologize?” Olivia looked at Matthew eagerly.


    Whoever targeted the Cruise family was able to get past Matthew and aim directly at them. It meant


    that the identity and status of this person were not ordinary.


    This matter had to be dealt with properly. Otherwise, it would be a cmity for the Cruise family.


    If anything happened to the Cruise family, it would be difficult for Olivia to marry Louis sessfully.


    “I can only do my best,” Matthew said. “Since the other party has made a move on the Cruise family,


    they won’t just make a small move.”


    Olivia nodded. “I understand.”


    However, there was an ominous feeling lingering in Olivia’s heart, and she could not shake it off.


    After Rachel and David finished eating, they walked out of the private room. Rachel received a call


    from Lucas. “You’re not at the office or at home at this time. Tell me the truth!”


    Although Lucas had someputer skills on him, he had never vited Rachel’s privacy.


    “I got a boyfriend,” said Rachel.


    Lucas said, “Rachel, you’ve really forgotten the pain after your scar healed. With your past experience


    with bad boys, you still dare to choose a man yourself!”


    Upon hearing Lucas‘ words, Rachel said unhappily, “Lucas, believe it or not, I’ll beat you up!”


    What did Lucas mean by past experience with bad boys?


    Others might not know why Rachel chose Louis back then, but it wasn’t like Lucas didn’t know either.


    “I’m telling you,e back immediately!” Lucas said. “Otherwise, I’ll tell


    my father. You’ll suffer when the timees!”


    Rachel frowned slightly. “If you dare to say another word, I’ll smash your garage!”


    Lucas treasured his garage the most.


    There were many limited edition sports cars parked there.

    “Rachel, I’m warning you onest time. Come back immediately!”


    Rachel sensed the seriousness in Lucas‘ tone. Rachel pursed her lips and said angrily, “Got it.”


    After hanging up the phone, Rachel kicked the flower pot in front of her as if she was venting her anger.
