Chapter 398

How could they have an appetite to eat?

Jarron and the others‘ expressions were stiff and pale.

No one expected Joshua to be so good to Olivia.

They were still trying to please Joshua, doing their best to win his favor. But they didn’t expect that Joshua was actually trying to please Olivia.

Joshua even planned to make a trip to Evervale personally in order to meet Olivia.

Gillian could not sit still. Her fingers gripped her sleeves tightly, and her knuckles turned white and green.

She recalled that when she was young. Isaac would only bring the three children to visit Joshua on Christmas.

She could only visit once a year, and Olivia had no such restrictions. She could go whenever she wanted.

Gillian had always been jealous of Olivia, thinking that Isaac was favoring her. Now, looking back, she thought that it wasn’t her grandfather’s favoritism but rather Joshua’s fondness for Olivia that allowed her to do so.

Thinking of this, Gillian touched her cheek and talked inwardly to herself, ‘Gillian, how much longer are you going to be stubborn? Aren’t you going to give up?‘

All the facts were overturned.

Back then, when Olivia took away the position of the family head and left their hometown, she did not give up. After experiencing Olivia’s brainwashing and being attacked by Rose, she was indignant.

So what was she still holding out for now?

Did she have to put in all the effort and try until she hurt before giving up?

Did she need someone to point at her nose and say she was not as good as Olivia for her to give up?

After leaving Joshua’s manor, the three of them didn’t have the mood to talk. Gillian stood at the door and looked back. A great sense of grief and indignation suddenly surged in her heart..
