Chapter 169
“No! Dont call the police!” Olivia ran to Lucas, crying, and grabbed Lucas by the arm.
Lucas flung her away in disgust. Olivia stumbled two steps and fell to the ground.
Reba finally realized what was going on here. She thought Olivia was joking about patching things
up between Lucas and Jessica. But Reba never thought that Olivia would actually do it.
Justin also had a rough picture of the whole story.
Justin had originally put pressure on Reba in hopes that she would be the mediator. He chose
Reba simply because she was the only one in the Thomas family who never had any conflicts with
Jes sica
However, Reba proved to be useless. Not only was she rejected by Jessica many times, but she
leaked her task to Olivia.
“If I dont turn you over to the police, I have no idea what wrong you will do next.” Lucas held Olivia’s
wrist tightly and dragged her to the door.
“Lucas, where are you going? She is your sister!” Reba had never seen Lucas like this.
But she was a coward and could not stop Lucas.
“Enough, Lucas!” Justin mmed his palm on the table and shouted.
Justin also thought Olivia had done a stupid thing, but he would by no means let anyone disgrace the
family’s name.
Lucas stopped, but he did not let go of Olivia.
Anger was written all over his face.
Justin let out a sigh and said, “Lucas, let go of your sister. Let’s calm down and straighten things up.”
With that, Lucas loosened his grip, and Olivia ran to Reba, weeping.
Justin knocked on the floor with his walking stick and looked at Olivia. “What did you do? Tell us about
Olivia nced at Justin and Reba. She did not dare to hide it anymore.
She quickly said, “Grandpa, you asked Mommy to talk to Jessica, right? I know you hope Mommy
could persuade Jessica into getting back together with Lucas. But Jessica kept shutting her door. Even
ifter she agreed to have dinner with Mommy, she refused Mommy’s proposal. I was just trying to help
Mommy…”
But you were not helping!” Reba looked at Olivia, not knowing what to say.

Justin frowned and snorted. “I warned youst time. You know how powerful the Hall family is in New
York, right? And you still dare to set Jessica up? Even if Lucas doesn’t deal with you, do you think the
Hall farnily will let you get away?”
“I didn’t set Jessica up!” Olivia said loudly. Sensing Lucas’ sharp gaze, she lowered her voice and said,
“I originally wanted to, but I didn’t have much pocket money, so I couldn’t find anyone to help me. Later,
Jer ry told me that a woman named Grace asked him to set up a trap for Jessica.”
“So you colluded with that woman?“ Justin asked.
Under Justin’s gaze, Olivia hurried to say, “I didn’t dare to contact Grace directly, but I learned about
her
n from Jerry. She originally put another man in that room. But I asked Jerry to put Lucas into that
room and put that man in another.
Olivia turned to Lucas as if she suddenly recalled something. “Lucas, I know I did something stupid, but
I only wanted you and Jessica to get back together this time. If it weren’t for me, Jessica might have
been…”
Lucas tossed a cold nce at Olivia. She then shut her mouth up.
Lucas said, “What? So you want me to give you credit for that?”
“It’s just … you and Jessica like each other, but you don’t have any chance to spend time together. Sol
came up with the idea. I did want you two to get back together this time.”
Justin sighed and said, “You are such a foolish girl. Even if you want your brother to marry Jessica
again, you shouldn’t have done it this way.”
“I know I did something stupid, grandpa, but I meant to help,” Olivia said.
“Lucas, I think Olivia has done something bad out of kindness, so why don’t you just forgive her?”
Justin said, trying to calm Lucas down,
“It’s not the first time she made such a mistake. Are you still going to cover it up for her?” Lucas
sneered.
