“Also, what do you mean I did something wrong? By your logic, I should’ve listened to him and changed into sexy underwear in front of him, is that it?”

“Olivia, stop being stubborn at this point, for God’s sake. I will believe that he hit you, but I cannot believe you and Ophelie’s claims that he flirted with you. Gavin is an educated man, and he knows the blood relation between you and him very well, so why would he flirt with you? You’re just spouting nonsense!”

“Educated? Are you saying that Ophelie and I aren’t educated? Fine, since you refuse to believe us, I don’t have anything else to say.”

“W-Why are you like this?” Norman’s expression turned dark. “Olivia, he’s your younger brother despite everything. How can you let him die because of something he did without thinking? Please let him off the hook for my sake. Raising you wasn’t easy, and I always bought you the things you wanted. You attended the most prestigious school, and I had to spend a lot of money for you to study overseas. It wasn’t easy for me!”

When Norman finished speaking, even Quincy and Samuel couldn’t bear to watch it anymore. What was Norman saying? Olivia was his daughter, so he was obliged to raise her. How did it turn into a favor for her? How shameless could Norman be?

Olivia felt her heart turn cold, and she no longer had any hope for the Pearsons. Even when things had come to this point, Norman still couldn’t believe that his son was a beast in human skin. What else could she say?

It didn’t matter; she didn’t care about Norman’s thoughts anymore. She had given Thomas the right to decide, so Thomas would have the final say.

Olivia gave her father a meaningful look. Without another word, she turned around and walked toward the bed.

“Olivia, how could you be so cruel? Can’t you just forgive your younger brother? I… I have raised you for nothing! You’re as stubborn and rude as your mother!”

Norman was so furious that he seethed. Olivia refused to let him have his pride even in front of so many people; how was he supposed to face them in the future?

“What did you say, Norman?”

Harrison was mad. “You’d better be honest about it. In what ways was my daughter stubborn and rude?”

Harrison’s daughter was one of the top young ladies in Irieson. She was good-looking and talented, and countless young men vied for her hand! If it weren’t for the Pearsons’ powerful history, she wouldn’t have fancied Norman at all! It was the Pearsons’ utmost honor for Harrison’s daughter to marry into their family!
