Female Novel
Chapter 104
What sort of request was Thomas asking for? He was being too cruel!
Terrence couldn’t just sit by and accept the fact that someone had just threatened to cripple hisgrandson in front of him!
Terrence wasn’t an ordinary man. Just like Blake of the Hind Family, he had learned martial arts sinceyoung, and he was also a skilled fighter in Irieson in his youth. Later on, when he grew older, hegradually left the public scene and passed the position as the head of the family to Norman, retiringbehind the scenes.
However, this didn’t mean that he was without a temper.
Just as Terrence was about to teach the arrogant youth a lesson, Norman reached out and tugged atTerrence, shaking his head at the latter.novelbin
It was only then Terrence remembered that Thomas wasn’t a nice person either. He once sent Blakeflying with just a punch, after all! No matter how skilled Terrence was, he couldn’t win against Blake,much less Thomas. It was only then that Terrence took a deep breath to suppress the rage in his heart.
Norman spoke up. “Thomas, we were at least acquaintances in the past. Moreover, this incident is afamily matter concerning the Pearsons, so I’m afraid it’s not appropriate for an outsider like you tointervene.”
“An outsider, you say?” Thomas puffed out a ring of smoke. “Well, since Olivia has already left thePearson Family, I hereby adopt her as my sister. My sister was bullied, so as her brother, there’snothing wrong with me standing up for her, right? I’ll give you half an hour. If I don’t see Gavin by then,I’m afraid your son will become a cripple. I’ve already given you a chance, after all.”
“You’re being unreasonable!”
Norman was completely furious now. He was the head of the Pearsons, and he was already being verynice to Thomas, but what did he get in return? How could Thomas threaten him?!
Thomas sneered. If he was unreasonable, what did that make Norman? Norman believed in his sonunconditionally, and he even treated his biological daughter like a sacrifice, giving her away like that.What sort of father was he? What point was there reasoning with a biased and rotten father likeNorman?
Thomas played nice with Norman only because of Olivia. If Norman weren’t Olivia’s biological father,Thomas would’ve killed him before wasting his breath on the man!
Who did Norman think he was?
“Norman, I never had much of a friendship with you, nor am I obliged to reason with you. Anyway, I’vealready given you two choices, and it’s the best I can do. It’s your call now.”
Norman’s chest suddenly heaved. Thomas was too arrogant and willful. If he knew that things wouldturn out like this, he wouldn’t have allowed Thomas to join the Pearson Group and become Olivia’sdriver. What was he supposed to do now? Did he have no choice but to get Gavin here and haveThomas deal with Gavin as he wished?
No way! Thomas even killed Drake, so if Gavin came here, Norman didn’t dare imagine what Gavinwould have to go through!
Terrence stood at the side with a dark look on his face. Likewise, he didn’t have a good solution, and hecouldn’t win against Thomas in a fight. If he could, he would’ve done it already!
“Young man, just forget this ever happened. After all, Olivia is fine now.” Harrison spoke up. ThePearsons were powerful, and it wasn’t a good thing to turn against them. Thomas might gain an upperhand for now, but if the Pearsons attacked him in return, he would be in trouble too.
A young man like Thomas couldn’t challenge the sheer power of the Pearsons just like that.
“‘She’s fine, you say?’ It’d be too late if she’s not!” Thomas’ eyes were filled with burning rage. Who didHarrison think he was? Thomas didn’t even know him! An old man like him should just stand by andwatch the show. If Thomas was provoked any further, he would send Harrison to hell right away!
“You—” Harrison never thought that Thomas would be so rude to him. He had tried to coax Thomas forthe latter’s good, after all.
Thomas took a puff. “You have 20 minutes left.”
He wasn’t so patient that he would waste time on Norman here. He couldn’t just forget about the factthat Olivia was hurt, not even if it involved Norman’s biological son!
What sort of beast was Gavin? He forced Olivia to put on sexy underwear without any warning, andwhen Olivia resisted, he started kicking her!
Norman and Terrence panicked. What should they do? Thomas was serious about it. Gavin mustn’tcome, or he might lose his life!
“Olivia, please convince Thomas to let this matter go, eh?”
Thomas glanced at Norman in disdain. He never thought that Norman was shameless enough to begOlivia for mercy!
Meanwhile, Olivia was in a dilemma. It was true that she hated Gavin, but her biological father hadreached out to her. What should she do? The blood of the Pearsons was still running in her veins! Ifshe declined her father’s request, she probably wouldn’t have anything to do with her father for the restof their lives.
However, if she didn’t decline, Thomas would’ve done everything in vain. Thomas would be hurt!
No, she shouldn’t speak up for the Pearsons!
“Thomas, just deal with it as you wish. I’m not interfering!”
Thomas smiled and nodded. He was glad that Olivia didn’t disappoint him.
He could feel that Olivia had already completely given up on the Pearsons.
If Olivia decided to pardon them, Thomas had no reason to pursue the matter. Fortunately, she didn’texplicitly reject Norman’s request. Instead, she gave Thomas the right to decide. It was a wisedecision, for she avoided direct conflict with her biological father.
Norman and his father were stunned. What did Olivia mean by that? Gavin was her brother, so even ifhe hurt her, that was the Pearsons’ business. Why would Olivia ask an outsider to make the decisions?
Was she even part of the Pearsons anymore?
“Olivia, it couldn’t have been a one-sided assault. You must have done something wrong. If not, Gavinwouldn’t have attacked you, would he?”
Olivia was so pissed that her slender body trembled. What mistakes had she committed? According toNorman’s logic, should she have just put on the sexy underwear in front of Gavin just because Gavintold her to? Did she deserve the beating just because she refused to comply?
Norman had completely disappointed her.
“Olivia, Gavin is still young, so he might do things emotionally and without thinking. You’re his oldersister, so you should tolerate him. It’s nothing serious.” Seeing that his daughter wasn’t sayinganything, Norman continued coaxing her.
As long as Olivia pardoned Gavin, Thomas wouldn’t have a reason to attack him.
Judging by Thomas’ temper and tendencies, if Gavin came, Thomas might just kill him. Gavin wasNorman’s only son, and he had hopes for Gavin to continue the Pearsons’ lineage in the future.
Olivia turned and got out of bed, then walked up to Norman slowly. “Nothing serious, eh? If it weren’tfor Thomas’ medical skills, I’d probably be dead by now.”
