Chapter 78


    Seeing a sure thing being messed up, Gianna felt like she was about to explode with anger.


    “I told you that Lee was unreliable, but you wouldn’t listen. You insisted on throwing your daughter


    under the bust” After returning to her apartment from the hospital, Gianna sat on the sofa to vent her


    dissatisfaction.


    Although she also wanted to make a fortune from Wayne Lee through extortion and return to her high


    and mighty life, she still felt that the fat man was not worthy of her.


    She still had her heart set on William Kinsman!


    Moreover, now that she had the goods on Olivia, she might be able to use it to turn the tables and


    return to the top.


    After hesitating for a moment, Gianna returned to her room to dress up. After a while, she emerged


    with the makeup of a scheming but innocent woman and went straight to the Kinsman Group building.


    At this time, William should be in his office.


    “William! William, you’re finally here!”


    The Kinsman Group building, where Gianna used to go in and out of at will, had be a restricted


    ce for her. Marshall Foster’s bodyguards were wary of her, as if she were a thief.


    She was forced to wait downstairs under the scorching sun for three hours. Her lips and tongue were


    dry, and she almost pa**ed out. When she finally saw a familiar figure, her voice was choked with tears.


    William did not even turn to look at her, but his eyes were filled with disgust.


    “What are you doing here?”


    Since she was already in front of him, he only asked when there was no way for him to avoid her.


    His deep and dark eyes were filled with bone-chilling coldness.


    The coldness in his eyes made Gianna’s heart sink instantly.

    “William, I have something to tell you. The current Olivia is actually the Olivia from before. She’s not


    dead! You must stay away from her. She hurt Grandpa, and she might hurt you too! She’s always been


    vicious. She would do anything… Holding on to thest bit of leverage to turn the tables, Gianna used


    the tricks she was best at to nder Olivia desperately. She wanted to wake the hatred in William’s


    heart and to use him to get rid of Olivia, the thorn in her side.


    Gianna was so busy listing Olivia’s “crimes” in detail that she failed to notice how William’s eyes kept


    darkening. “Gianna, you’d better behave yourself. Otherwise, you’ll be in a much worse situation than


    you are in now!”


    William had always felt guilty about wronging Olivia in the past. Naturally, he would not allow anyone to


    nder her. anymore. His deep growl interrupted Gianna, who was crying her heart out.


    Gianna’s heart trembled, and she was instantly stunned. Tears welled up in her beautiful eyes. Despite


    being filled with questions, she didn’t dare say another word.


    After all, the so-called crimes that Olivia hadmitted were all fabricated to frame her.


    However, why didn’t William seem surprised at all to learn that Olivia was alive?


    Did he know Olivia’s true identity already?


    What about the truth of the past?


    Did he know about that as well?


    Looking at William’s gloomy expression, Gianna felt extremely guilty and was scared out of her wits.


    She didn’t dare to say anything more and froze in fear.


    “William, I beg you, for the years we’ve spent together, don’t be so cold-hearted to me. Even if we’re


    only going to be friends. That way, we won’t be too embarra**ed on the surface, and the rke family


    will still have a chance to survive…”


    Gianna wasn’t sure how much William knew about the past, so she didn’t dare to act rashly.


    She had no choice but to take a step back and find a way out for the rke family.


    Gianna was crying so hard that her voice went h oa rse. A hint of rxation finally shed through


    William’s cold eyes. “If you behave yourself from now on, the past will be written off. The Kinsmans


    won’t make things difficult for you.”

    Marshall mustered up his courage and aked, unering every word in fear.


    Marshall, if you’re hard of hearing, retire to Srence to work as a farmer


    William’s tone was calm, but the words he spoke were so stem that they hit Marshall’s ears like


    thunder.


    It took him a lot of effon to calm down. He turned to the driver and showed him the way with trembling


    fingers. “Maple Vis. Hurry up!


    Marshall was so nervous that cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He was afraid that he would be


    sent to Srence if he was a second slower.


    Half an hourter, at the entrance of Maple Vis


    Under the panicked gazes of Marshall and the group of bodyguards, William actually rang the doorbell


    himself for the first


    time.


    “Didn’t you say that you’de after the shop closes? Why are you here…


    Olivia was busy cooking steak in the kitchen. When she heard the doorbell ring, she thought that


    Chelsea Peters hade in advance for a free meal.


    However, when the opened the door, she saw William’s wless but annoying face.


    The smile on Olivia’s face froze instantly. “Mr. Kinsman, why are you here again? Could it be that your


    brain is all confused from the wounds on your abs that you have trouble finding your home?”


    Olivia’s slender figure was blocking the door, and her hands were holding the door handle tightly. It was


    obvious that she did not intend to let William in.


    At first, Olivia couldn’t help feeling guilty and nervous when she saw him take the blow for her.


    Unexpectedly, less than two hours after she applied medicine to his wounds, he was already back on


    his feet. He even persisted in continuing to flirt with her.


    She avoided his advances, and finally made it to when it was time for William to go back to work for a


    board meeting.


    She thought that she was finally free, but after a while, the annoying man returned again.

    “It seems that you, Miss rke, do not wee me. Aren’t you being a bit heartless? After all, I saved


    life!”


    Seeing that the door was about to be closed on him, William took the initiative to take the moral high


    ground.


    “Yes, it’s true that you saved me, Mr. Kinsman. I’m also very grateful, but you did it voluntarily, and your


    injury is much better now. You can’t pester me forever for what you did, now can you?”


    Olivia did not intend to help maintain William’s pride at all.
