Chapter 47


    Over the past few days, Anna kept hearing Olivia’s name being mentioned. Was Summer city always


    this small? How is it that we would even run into her at the elementary school?


    “That’s right. You didn’t see that attitude of hers; it was exceptionally arrogant! She even threw me out!


    Even now, my arm still hurts.” Florence rubbed at her arm, curling her lips with all her might.


    When Anna heard that, she was stunned for a moment. Following that, the gears in her mind spun


    quickly, and she pretended to rush over to Florence worriedly. “She dared to hit you? Where were you


    hurt?” As she spoke, she squatted down in front of her. “Let me see; is it serious?”


    Florence broke into a smile immediately and grabbed her hand. “I’m fine. It was a little swollen this


    morning, but I rubbed some medicinal oil on it. Don’t worry; it’s fine now.”


    Then, Anna sat down on another chair. “Mom, don’t confront her directly next time. Let her say


    whatever she wants to say. You’re not young anymore; your health is more important.”


    Florence had a pleased expression on her face. “I’m so d Hugo married you. If he had married that


    sister of yours, she would have taken years off my life. Shepletely drove me up the wall today! Not


    only did she refuse to apologize, but she also hit me! Whoever marries that woman would never find


    peace! She is so unlike you—you are so kind and considerate.”


    Having achieved her purpose, Anna pretended to sigh helplessly. “Olivia came back a few days back.


    As soon as she got back, we got into an unpleasant dispute. Just the day before, she drove a wedge


    between Hugo and me. I don’t know what she said to him, but he pped me the moment he came


    back. He even said that if it wasn’t because of me, he wouldn’t have broken up with her. Right now, he


    refuses to sleep in the same room as me. I don’t even know how long more I can remain as your


    daughter-inw. At this rate, it may not be long before you have a new daughter-inw.”


    Florence widened her eyes at those words. “What did you say? Is that true? Hugo wants to marry


    Olivia?”

    “I don’t know either. However, I believe that if Hugo continues to be seduced by Olivia, it may happen


    very soon. You didn’t see the look Hugo gave me! He looked like he wanted to kill me! Perhaps all men


    are like this—they stop cherishing something once they’ve obtained it. Currently, he thinks Olivia is so


    great and amazing—so much so he even began to doubt the paternity of Mitch, iming that he wasn’t


    sure whether the child is his. Mom, don’t you think he’s acting like a possessed man?” Anna looked


    extremely aggrieved, and her eyes filled with tears.


    “She must be delusional!” Florence cursed viciously, “If she wants to marry my son, it’ll still depend on


    my approval! A woman of loose morals like her, trying to enter the Gray family?! Don’t even dream


    about it! Anna, don’t worry. You are the only daughter-inw I have. Nobody will ever break the two of


    you apart.”


    Anna smiled slightly and said in an understanding manner, “Okay; thanks, Mom. I made you worry


    about us again. I just can’t help feeling that she’s always lurking about everywhere. Even now, her child


    is going to the same school as Mitch. Moreover, I’ve seen that child of hers. He looks rather smart. So,


    I’m worried Mitch might be bullied by him.”


    Florence snorted, “How dare he?! In a few days, I’ll get somebody to teach that little b*stard a lesson


    so that he remembers it forever.”


    Thus, Anna secretly raised her brows with a faint smile on her lips.


    Time passed quickly. Olivia had found a location for her studio, and it was being renovated. Thus, she


    had been watching over things at the studio during this period.


    Today, she received a call from the program crew of the mor Vogue’s grandpetition, asking her


    to participate as a judge for tomorrow’s final show for the ready-to-wear collection.


    This time around, the scale of the grand fashionpetition was veryrge. Manypanies had


    sponsored it. Moreover, it was very well advertised and held considerable prestige. Out of thousands of


    works, only the top ten most popr and most promising designs were selected.


    After that, the designer’s team was required to create ready-made garments of their designs, which


    would be showcased on the runway by models or the designers themselves. Then, they will be scored


    by judges and voted on by the audience.


    If one ced among the top candidates, the benefits wouldn’t stop at the prize money; they would also


    receive the promotion and publicity of various media outlets, TV stations, and the inte.


    Unfortunately, her studio was not ready yet. Otherwise, she would have taken the opportunity to ride on


    the poprity of thepetition to promote her studio. That would have been more effective than


    whatever advertisement I could put up!
