Chapter 1127

Tatiana's expression darkened at the mention of that matter. "Shut up. You knew very well that it's

taboo to talk about that around your dad."

"What sort of taboo is that? My dad must have abandoned his family for wealth and glory back then.novelbin

"After that, he slowly climbed up the ranks with you. To be honest, my dad is quite the jerk."

"Nonsense. Who told you all that?"

Krystal stuck out her tongue. "M-My grandma told me that."

"Your grandma is spouting nonsense. Times are different now. Now, it's the Benson family trying to gain

your dad's favor. You should be aware of your dad's temper.

"If you mention this matter in front of him, you'll get slapped for sure."

Krystal said, "I know. I'm just asking. That woman is so normal-looking, and she doesn't look like my

dad at all. Don't take it to heart, Mom."

"Yeah. You've seen how things turned out. Your dad and your brother were too good to that wench, and

they would even fire Alfred without hesitation.

"You'd better be careful around that woman, too. She's very smart. You're no match for her."

Krystal snorted. "So what if she's smart? She's still an orphan without a family. She's a commoner who

can never catch up to me!"

"Alright, enough of that. Just behave around your dad for the next few days, and don't get into any

conflict with that woman."

"Got it, Mom. About Mr. Warner …"

"Your dad is still mad about it, so we can only let Alfred endure for a while longer. That woman will soon

be forced off her high horse."

A vicious look appeared in Tatiana's eyes.

Olivia brought Mason back to the living room. Mason looked at Olivia with a remorseful gaze, saying,

"I'm sorry you had to be mistreated again, child."

Mason knew very well who had brought about this incident, but Tatiana was his wife. He couldn't just

humiliate Tatiana in public, so he played along and put all the blame on Alfred instead.

"It's okay, I don't mind it at all."

"You're just too soft."

Olivia smiled. Letting go of the wheelchair, she began to make tea for him. "Mr. Heath, I'm not soft at

all. If I were truly soft, I wouldn't have gotten Mr. Linus to come over.

"I didn't mean to blow it out of proportion, but if I endured it today, I might have to endure even worse

things in the Heath residence in the future.

"You and Mr. Linus are always very busy, so I can't make you two come over every day just to defend

me.

"Moreover, if I don't want to be at a disadvantage, leaving is the best option for me. But if I leave, Mr.

Linus might have to go through the trouble of getting me back here.

"If this goes on, we'll only go back to square one. So, I'd rather make a huge fuss out of it. With this

incident as an example, even if someone wants to bully me in the future, they won't dare to."

Mason smiled comfortingly. "You're quite smart. It's a pity that you're a woman. If you're a man …"

"What happens if I'm a man?"

"You'll be able to achieve great things on the battlefield. But these days, women aren't inferior to men in

any way. There are quite a lot of female diplomats, too.

"Child, do you have any needs in the future? You have great potential, and I don't want you to waste

that potential."

Olivia shook her head. "I just want to be a casual doctor. I don't have such great ambitions."

"Alright, as you wish."

Olivia looked at Mason. "Mr. Heath, why are you so nice to me? You didn't have to go to such lengths

for my sake in the incident just now."

"I share the same opinions as you. I'd either refrain from fighting or beat them up so badly that they

won't be able to fight back. I don't want them to be a bother in the future.

"I think we'll get along quite well, child."
