Chapter 14
Seeing that Olivia did not cry as much as they had expected, her parents felt relieved.
"It's good that you don't blame us’’ This was the reality.
If the Clements offended the Tubman family, they would have to suffer the consequences.Olivia smiled.
"How could that be?"
Not only did she not get angry, she was also looking forward to it.
In her previous life, it was because of Leonard's true love that he asked Olivia to go to prison.
In this life, she would not make the same foolishness.
At that point, Olivia herself did not know what would happen in the future.
She was so lost in thought that she had not noticed her mother waving her hand in front of her face.
"What are you thinking, kid?" Madam Enya asked.
"I've been talking to you, but you're not saying anything."
"Ah? Mom, what did you say?"
"I just asked you what you did when you were in the back garden."
Olivia suddenly remembered what had happened in the backyard: Bruce's handsome face, his pair of deep, dark eyes, and his mischievous smirk as he looked down at her...
'Why is he still lingering in my mind?’ She pinched herself.
She looked at her parents' probing gazes and said, "I just enjoyed the flowers…”
Fortunately, her parents were not nosy people, so they did not ask any more questions. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
The matter of the Clements canceling the engagement should have been kept secret, but inevitably, it leaked out.
LC City was not that big, so there were only so many people in the upper-class circle.
However, the fact that the Tubman family had stopped the Clements from completely calling off the wedding led to people believing that the Tubmans were actually the ones who wanted to put an end to this but the Clements refused to withdraw.
Many people were indignant.
"Olivia is truly shameless.They were about to cancel the marriage, but in the end, she refused to agree she might never let this engagement go even when she dies!"
"That's right, that's right.I really feel sorry for Bruce to have someone as brazen as Olivia engaged to him.."
Those were what Olivia heard when she arrived at school on Monday.
She was originally isolated in class, but now, she was the public enemy of all the girls in school! However, she did not care at all; she did not seem to be affected at all.
When Leonard heard the rumors, he initially wanted to help her clarify it.
But when he remembered how Olivia ignored him, he got lazy to say anything.
He himself was puzzled why the engagement had not been completely called off.
Last night, his parents even tried to tell him to treat Olivia better; they were insistent to have Leonard marry her.
The more they tried to push that, the more he hated being arranged and wanted to resist.
He should clarify these rumors.
Unfortunately, he had waited for Olivia to beg for him to do it, and now, his silence had turned into acquiescence.
More and more people wanted to trouble Olivia for Leonard's sake.
At noon, in the school cafeteria, Olivia had just finished her meal and was about to get up from the table when a long-haired girl approached her and bumped into her.
The soup in the girl's hand unfortunately fell onto Olivia's leg; it was greasy and stick.
Laughter rang out in the cafeteria, and someone secretly gave the long-haired girl a thumbs up.
"I'm really sorry" he long-haired girl said embarrassedly, but her attitude betrayed her words.
"My hand slipped."
She thought that she had finished apologizing and was ready to leave when Olivia suddenly grabbed her arm.
"I've already apologized.What else do you want?" She frowned.
She wanted to break free, but she could not.
Olivia laughed.
She grabbed the girl's hair and dragged her all the way to the trash can.
She then pushed her backwards into the bucket used to store leftover food.
The smell and feel were more nauseating than the greasy soup.
Despite everyone's dumbfounded expressions, Olivia smiled apologetically.
"Ah, I'm sorry, my hands slipped, too."
Everyone was speechless.
In the afternoon, Olivia went to the bathroom.
When she came back to the classroom, there was a snake spitting out venom on the floor next to her desk.
She casually took a book and threw it onto the snake's head.
She then grabbed its tail, her expression still calm.
Everyone's faces slacked.
Before they could recover from their shock, Olivia casually threw the snake away! Her classmates went crazy, screaming and fleeing In the midst of the commotion, only Olivia sat quietly in her seat.
After the snake was finally taken out, everyone was still stunned.
Olivia walked up to the podium and swept her cold gaze across their faces.
Then, she sneered contemptuously and said word by word, "With all due respect, everyone here is a jerk.Anyone who wants to tease or play a trick on me, I will play with you.But if you lose, you'll have to serve me in the future."
The whole classroom was silent.
Olivia's unprecedented words were truly arrogant.
However, no one dared to retort.
Olivia had never suffered a single loss after experiencing the school’s bullying.
She would immediately hit them and teach them a lesson in minutes.
After that, no other idiots begged for another beating.
Under Olivia's ruthlessness, the bullying stopped: no one dared to overestimate themselves and cause trouble for her again.
Even the rumors gradually subsided...
Leonard witnessed all of this.
Not only had Olivia not cried a single tear, but she had also dealt with all the attacks by herself! For a moment, he was in a daze all of his preconceived notions about Olivia had been squashed time and time again.
Before he could figure it all out, the notice from the dormitory branch finally arrived.
Leonard was completely stunned when he opened it; he was assigned to live with Olivia!
