Chapter 1450

Olivia didn't beat about the bush. "Grandpa, what are you going to do withnovelbin

Aunt Molly and Yale?"

Mason gave her a fleeting glance. "Did you come as the middleman?"

"I'm a woman, and I've gone through a lot. Yale has indeed been involved in many awful deeds, but he

did all those for Aunt Molly. Her body is weak to begin with. If they break up, I'm afraid..."

Grabbing a paintbrush, Mason continued painting. "Do you know what I told the two men that night?"

"I can't read your mind."

"I have two conditions for Yale. First, it's to cut ties with the Kingston family."

"He has fulfilled that."

A meaningful smile appeared across his lips. "How naive. To cut ties for real is easier said than done,

other than the blood running in their veins, it takes many other factors into account. Even if he wants to

leave them for good, they won't grant his wish."

"What's the second condition, then?" If the first was that difficult, the second one should be definitely on

another level.

"Molly can marry him only if he gives her the Kingstons' fortune."

Olivia's eyes widened.

Businessmen were nowhere near the politicians when it came to playing dirty games.

If Mason wasn't her grandfather, she would've burst into a string of curses.

"Are you criticizing me inwardly?"

Olivia flashed a smile. "Not at all."

"It's not weird to criticize me forthat. I might appear cruel to you guys, but Olivia, the political world is

scarier than you imagine. As long as the

Kingstons aren't eliminated, I won't be able to have a good night's sleep.

"And Yale is the best candidate to do the job. Only he can root them out. I have faith in him."

"Did he give his word?"

"I didn't receive a response. I reckon there's a scale in his mind. He knows what's the most important

thing to him."

How cruel.

One option was his family while the other option was his lover.

Which one would Yale choose?

"What about Ethan? What kind of conditions did you give him?"

If Mason didn't hold himself back against Yale, Ethan wouldn't have it easier either.

"I want Connor," blurted Mason.

"He didn't agree to it." Olivia could guess the answer without asking further.

"Yup. And the other condition is to have him become one of the Heaths."

"And he didn't agree to that either."

"Yes, that brat."

Unlike Yale, Ethan rejected the conditions on the spot.

Olivia wore a wan smile. "Because he knows that you're not the biggest

hurdle in our relationship-it's our past. I still can't completely forgive him until today. Even if he agrees

to your conditions, he can't do anything without my forgiveness.

"Besides, he's the only son in his family. How could he agree to that?"

"To agree or not is a different matter from wanting to agree or not. Olivia, Ethan has options, unlike

Yale. That's why Ethan has the power to not agree to my conditions, still, we can see that you're not the

most important existence to him."

Mason's expression turned stern as he continued, "I know that he chose his family instead of you back

then without hesitation. Will he abandon you again in the future? You're doing the right thing by not

forgiving him."

That remark rained on Olivia's parade. She shook her head. "When there's no expectations, there's no

disappointment. That is why I don't dare to remarry him. I'm afraid too."

"Ethan has choices, and so do you. Wayne's feelings for you are genuine. Tell me, are you interested in

him? He hasn't been married, let alone have a woman. His status is as good as Ethan's. If you want it, I

can arrange a marriage between the two of you."
