Chapter 649 Gloating
"Belle breathed a sigh of relief, and her expression was still heavy. Octavia''s gaunt face emerged in her
mind. As she expected, Zoe had pushed all the me to this woman. If thewyer''s team leaked the
evidence, Octavia would face a serious catastrophe of imprisonment, which she did not want to see."
Belle took out her cell phone and dialed Octavia''s number.
"Mrs. Harvey, thank you for sending my mother and brother to Sovento. Their illness depends on your
care. As soon as Octavia picked up Belle''s phone, she cried and eximed excitedly."
"Belle held the phone and did not speak for a long time until she calmed down. Then, she uttered
slowly, ""Octavia, you have to be mentally prepared. Zoe has med you for all the crimes, and you
have be a scapegoat."""
"Hearing this, Octavia smiled sadly. ""Madam, I have known about it for a long time. I have done

something wrong, and I deserve it. I am willing to be punished as long as my mother and brother are
safe and healthy. I have been with the wrong person and I can''t distinguish between right and wrong.
This is my retribution. I have no regrets."""
"Octavia remained calm and undaunted even though she might have to bear Zoe''s crimes. She was
well aware of this, and she didn''t me anyone."
"Belle sighed. ""No, Octavia, all this is not for you to bear. Although you have done wrong, you should
not bear the responsibility that doesn''t belong to you. This is also sphemy in the eyes of thew. You
should utilize thew, find evidence for yourself and clear your name. To tell the truth, Octavia, I don''t
want to see you be a prisoner. I am willing to help you, but the premise is that you have to fight for
yourself and cooperate with me."""
"Octavia''s face shed a gloomy light of pain. She held her cell phone tightly. She understood what
Belle was saying, but she did not have the courage to clear her name. These had long been nned,
step by step, by Zoe. It was not easy to overthrow the evidence. Could she defeat Zoe?"
"Madam, thank you for your kindness. I''m already happy that the Harvey Group can remove the charge
against them. My matter is not important. So, let''s forget about it, Octavia responded and hung up the
phone hopelessly."
Belle closed her eyes and sighed.
The door knocked again.
"Belle turned back, and Luca appeared in the office. She was so shocked that her mouth opened wide."
"Luca, why are you back? Where is Mr. Harvey?"
"Madam. Luca smiled and answered respectfully, ""Mr. Harvey asked me toe back to protect
you."""
"Nonsense. Belle''s face fell upon hearing those words. ""I am fine now, and there is no need for you to
protect me. At this moment, Yadriel is the main opponent, a powerful figure. You should go back to help
Mr. Harvey immediately."""
"The charge against the Harvey Group would be lifted soon, and Liya had already been moved into the
hospital. So, what else could she do? If they did not get rid of their rival, Yadriel, even if she removed
Zoe''s attempt on framing the Harvey Group, he would use all other excuses to ce it on the Harvey
Group. He would not let the Harvey Group off. Furthermore, if he were to be elected, then he would be
irresponsible towards the citizens. Belle would not be unable to distinguish this order. Hence, she
anxiously requested Luca to return and protect Calvin."
"Luca understood that Belle did not know about Calvin''s recent situation in Capital City, and she did not
know that he had already gone to the war-torn country. Thinking that Calvin did not tell her this because
he was afraid that she would be scared, Luca smiled. ""Madam, what Mr. Harvey is most worried about
is your safety. As long as he can protect you, he will be able to handle the big matters. It would help if
you trusted Mr. Harvey''s arrangement. Since I''m back, I don''t dare disobey his orders anymore."""
"Belle was stunned for a moment, and she secretly sighed slightly. There was no other way."
"Alright, then go back to Harvey Manor and get some rest. I''ll call you if there''s something. Belle
thought for a moment and could only order in this way."
Luca had just left when Lomen returned.
"Madam, the matter at Octavia''s ce hase to an end. Her mother and brother have safely arrived
in S City. We have also arranged for the doctors, Lomen reported to her."
"Belle nodded and sighed. ""Lomen, I don''t think the current result is the best. Zoe has pushed all the
me to Octavia. Although the charge against our Harvey Group will be removed, the real murderer,
Zoe, is still atrge. This is not a good thing. The woman is scheming. I am afraid that she will do
something unfavorable to the Harvey Group in the future. Moreover, I can''t just let Octavia be framed
like this. At this time, I have to ask you to continue to watch Zoe and see if you can find a
breakthrough."""
"Belle spoke with much distress, and the expression on her face was a little pained and regretful."
"Lomen nodded, and he replied softly, ""Madam, when you and Mr. Harvey were still in Wullen Town,
Mr. Hudson asked me to follow Zoe for a period of time. At that time, she was still preparing for the
Miss Universepetition. She came up with a new online shopping mode. This mode is still profitable
and popr. Zoe is smart and capable. It''s a pity that her mentality was twisted, and she chose the
wrong path. She had many killers by her side. It wasn''t easy to follow her closely. I followed her for a
period of time, and it didn''t work. If we follow her now, then it won''t have much effect. Madam, you are
the one who can get the evidence for the Harvey Group. It''s incredible for you to make a move through
Octavia. However, we are really not sure about what to do next."""
"This kind of analysis was pertinent, and Belle was also well aware of it. She was pacing around in the
office. ""Shall we let her go unpunished like this?"""
She couldn''t say how heavy her heart was.
"Lomen sighed slightly and responded, ""Madam, don''t worry. Her thoughts are seriously distorted, and
she will not give up. On the contrary, she will definitely give herself away. The Public Security
Department has discovered her identity and regards her as a key person of interest. Let''s wait and see.
Something will happen to her sooner orter. It won''t be too long."""
"Well, it''s the only way now. Belle gently sighed. ""You''d better pay more attention and try to help
Octavia."""
"Belle was not worried that Zoe would kill Octavia. After all, she had to take the me for her."
"Okay, Madam, I will. Lomen smiled, and then he left."
"When Liya woke up from hera, she saw the white curtains. There was a dull paining from her
belly, and her face was also in severe pain."
She opened her eyes and only realized that she was in the hospital after a long while.
How did she end up in the hospital?
"Gradually, she shivered and recalled what happened."
"She was forced to drink the medicine by a bunch of gangsters, and then she was thrown out like a
piece of trash. She took out the little money she had, got on a bus alone, and was helpless."
"She remembered that before she fainted, there was only one thought in her mind. That was, she must
return to Harvey Manor. Only when she returned could there be hope for her to live, and only then
could she avoid dying in vain."
"At that moment, she thought of what Reid had said before he died. He wanted her to live a peaceful
life in Harvey Manor and live a happy life. He would look after her in heaven."
"At this moment, she finally realized how absurd her acts were before."
Shey quietly on the bed and rested for two days.
"In the past two days, Liya had found out that she had lost the ability to give birth. She took the mirror
and saw the face wrapped with gauze. There were so many stitches on it. She could not remember
how many stitches there were, and neither did she want to remember."
She was thinking about how to continue her life.
"On the third day, she was lying in bed."
The door opened.
She opened her eyes and was shocked.
"Zoe was standing in front of her, looking at her expressionlessly."
What are you doing here? Liya asked coldly.
"I''m here to see you make a fool of yourself. Look at your miserable state, and look at what happens
after you went rogue. Zoe''s face revealed a gloating smile, and her words were cruel and shrill."
"Liya''s face turned pale and she sneered. ""B*tch, if youugh at me, then you''ll only end up worse
than me."""
She retorted without mercy.
"Zoe''s eyes were dark and fierce, and the expression on her face was so cold that it made her
terrifying."
"She bent down and red at her. ""Liya, do you know why you ended up in such a pathetic state?"""
"When Liya''s eyes met Zoe''s unfathomable gaze, she trembled all over."
What do you mean? Liya asked vigntly.
Zoe suddenly burst outughing.
"Liya''s face was full of anger. ""B*tch, I was living well, but you found me. Now I''vee to this end
because of you. How dare youugh at me? You are f*cking shameless. You even told me that you
gave me the money to support me. In fact, it was always Sophia who sponsored me. You''re really
audacious. I ended up in this state, and you''ll suffer even worse than me."""
Liya gritted her teeth and cursed. The anger in her eyes was so strong that she wanted to kill her.
"Zoe''s smile gradually froze, and the light in her eyes was as cold as frost."
"Do you think that Matteo is Oscar? I have long expected you would end up like this. In this world, only
when you''re strong will one have dignity, and others will respect you. Don''t expect anyone to do
something to you. That''s just fantasy! Think about it, why did Sophia give you that sum of money? It
was because she wronged your mother. As for what she gave you, it''s nothing. Don''t you think that she
was just being kind to help you? Don''t forget, how did Reid die? He died in Harvey Manor and was
assassinated. I came here today to remind you kindly that a woman like you, who has been disfigured
and unable to bear a child, that which man would want you in the future? What kind of life do you want?
Zoe''s words were like a sharp knife that pierced Liya''s heart."
This was the question that Liya had thought about the most in the past two days. She had nothing at
all. How could she continue to live in the future?
"It was impossible for her to stay in Harvey Manor. With her current state, even Calvin wouldn''t even
spare her a nce. What right did she have to stay in Harvey Manor?"
What the Jones family had done to her made her lose the courage to stay with the Harvey family.
