Female NovelLeia had tortured Jacqueline so cruelly and almost drowned her just a while ago. Jacqueline and Leia were the same kind of people-cruelty ran in their blood. This was a chance for Jacqueline to avenge herself.
As Olivia's enemy, Leia knew that this wasn't a difficult condition for Olivia. Leia meant nothing to Olivia. The glint in Leia's eyes turned cold when she heard that condition. But she could only rein her anger in for Olivia's sake. After all, she owed it to Olivia.
Clenching her fists, Leia tried to keep her cool.
Ethan frowned upon hearing that. But Ethan shared the same notion as Leia-they owed Olivia. That was why he stayed silent, agreeing to the condition alongside Leia.
"No," Olivia rejected, and everyone looked at her.
No one saw it coming.
"Why? Think about what she did to you. Are you feeling sorry for her?"
"This is a different matter. Settle your scores with Leia yourself. This is between you and me. I don't have the right to drag someone else into this."
Jacqueline coldly snorted. "Do you know what I hate about you the most? The fact that you always put yourself above everyone and sympathize with others. Women can never keep their positions without cruelty. You'll lose your footing one day because of your generosity."
"If money is the only thing you want, you can contact that person behind you. We'll give you money, and you'll lift the curse on me."
Jacqueline was also cursed. Both the women needed to get rid of it as soon as possible.
"Other than two billion dollars, I need a hostage to guarantee my safety."
"Hostage? In your dreams," Olivia refused without a second thought.
Jacqueline glared. "Olivia, you're powerful. After I lift the curse and run away, I'm sure I'll be caught in no time. What else do I need a hostage for? Don't worry, I'll take the money and live in a place where people don't know me. If you let me go, I'll let the hostage go as wellTM
"I can be the hostage," Ethan offered.
Olivia subconsciously grabbed his hand. How could she let him be the hostage when Jacqueline was such a calculating fox?
"What do you take me for, Mr. Miller? An idiot? With you as my hostage, I might die before I realize it. I want her to be my hostage." Jacqueline pointed at Willow. "Your daughter. She's young and doesn't pose a threat to me. She's the best candidate." "No way I'm going to agree to that!"
Olivia cared about her children more
than anything in this world. She risked her life giving birth to them. How could she put Willow ina dangerous situation? S
The sound of the bell ringing resounded.
Willow came up to them and gestured at Olivia, "I can do it, Mom." She was willing to do anything as long as she could save her mother.
Despite their young age, Olivia's
children knew how rough she had. If Olivia hadn't put up with the
hardships, she would've pasvera

ago.
Although she couldn't speak, Willow was content to be with her family.
"Mom, let me be the hostage."
