Female Novel
Chapter 305
It would be acceptable if the Flynn Family and I were insulted by peers. However, Gunnar, a mere childfrom the generation of grandchildren, is truly astonishing for daring to meddle in my affairs.
It seems luck is finally on my side if Gunnar truly has feelings for Olivia. I can seize complete controland take the initiative!
“Grandma, will Gunnar be displeased if we appear too passive?” Leyton Alix asked.
Leah sneered. “He?! Displeased of us?! So what?”
“Yes, Grandma, you’re right! Right now, Gunnar has to beg us since he couldn’t win Olivia’s heart.”
A smug smile spread across Leyton’s face. He envied Gunnar very much. They were peers, but whywas he the center of attention? Why did he get this much attention from the girls?
I’m no less capable. In terms of skills, I’m outstanding for my age. In terms of appearance, I’m equallycharming. Why don’t I receive the same treatment? It’s time to put him in his place!
Creak! The presidential suite door swung open, followed by a man walking in to hand over a documentto Leah. “Ma’am, here are the specific details of Miss Olivia that you requested us to investigate.”
Leah took the document and quickly skimmed through it. “Tell me what you’ve found.”
“Currently, Miss Olivia is working at Keyshire Property. We’ve noticed an increased presence ofunfamiliar individuals around the area. Although they seem capable, judging by their appearance, theyshow no ill intentions toward Miss Olivia; instead, they seem responsible for discreetly protecting her.Our agents hesitate to enter Keyshire Property easily because Rafael himself developed this company,and we fear provoking his displeasure.”
At this, Leah furrowed her brow as things got more complicated. Initially, she had considered forcefullytaking Olivia from her workplace if necessary, but now it seemed like wishful thinking.
She might disregard the bodyguards responsible for protecting Olivia, but she dared not easily offendRafael. Rafael’s status was too exceptional, and unless necessary, it was best not to provoke thatprominent figure.
“Cease the investigation and recall our operatives!” Leah commanded.
“Yes, Ma’am!” The man turned and left to carry out the order.
After Leyton observed his grandmother’s pale face, he couldn’t help but wonder, What startled her somuch upon hearing the name “Rafael”?
“Grandma, what’s wrong? We don’t need to recall our members as no one would dare to oppose us inIrieson, even if there are protectors around Olivia. If we withdraw now, taking her away later forciblywon’t be easy,” he suggested.
Leah shook her head helplessly. She understood the logic behind Leyton’s words. It was just that shereally couldn’t afford to offend Rafael!
Leyton became even more puzzled after noticing his grandma’s silence. “Grandma, who is this Rafael?Is he mighty?”
“Stop asking. When you are older, you’ll know all these things.” Leah refused to answer his question.
Sometimes, the more you know, the worse it gets and the more knowledge you possess, the moredangerous it becomes.
At Irieson International Airport, Gunnar wore black sunglasses and walked to the entrance. He feltdissatisfied after glancing at the people in front of him.
“Leah, oh, Leah, what tricks are you playing again?” Gunnar monologed.
Indeed, the only forces waiting to greet him were the Flynn Family while Leah was nowhere to be seen.
“Mr. Gunnar, should I call Leah?” a follower behind Gunnar asked softly.
Gunnar shook his head. “No, I want to see how well she can control her temper. Hmph!”
With that, he got into his Mercedes and drove off.
He had initially assumed that Leah must have had an urgent matter preventing her from making it tothe airport in time; moreover, he thought she would call and apologize later. However, he rested untilevening without receiving the expected apology call.
This made Gunnar quite impatient. He picked up his phone and called Leah directly.
“Hello,” came Leah’s lazy voice from the other end of the phone. She sounded like she had just wokenup.
“Madam Wilkerson, your status is truly esteemed. I hope I didn’t disturb your rest by calling you out ofthe blue,” Gunnar said sarcastically, as he felt extremely annoyed. During my last visit to Irieson, Leaheagerly came to the airport to welcome me. But this time, I have already been in Irieson for half a day,and Leah hasn’t popped a note. The difference in treatment is like night and day. What’s the meaningof this? Does she look down on me?
“Haha!” Leah let out an indifferent laugh. “Gunnar, how can my esteemed status compare to yours? Mydear future son-in-law, I was busy communicating with Olivia and momentarily forgot to pick you up.You must understand my good intentions!”
Upon hearing Leah’s words, Gunnar felt a wave of disgust. Future son-in-law? What a joke! I haven’tmarried Olivia yet, and she dares to call me that!
Leah remained unfazed when facing Gunnar’s silence as she was well-prepared for this. “Gunnar,Olivia told me that she’s willing to meet you, and there’s even a possibility of marrying you. However,Wilkerson Family is currently facing some trouble. Since your Flynn Family is our in-laws, shouldn’t youhelp us resolve it in advance?”
Of course, Olivia would never say such things. Leah was utterly fabricating this to deceive Gunnar. If hefell for it, that would be perfect as the Wilkerson Family’s issues would be resolved, and she wouldn’thave to live in constant fear every day; if he didn’t, it would also be beneficial to delay things for a while.
“Hmm?” Gunnar paused for a moment. He understood that Leah knew he had developed feelings forOlivia, so she took this opportunity to make such excessive demands. If I want to have Olivia, it’spossible, but the condition is to help resolve the trouble for the Wilkerson Family first!
He responded while suppressing his anger, “Let me consult my dad and see what his thoughts are onthe matter.”
“Good, then I’ll be waiting for your good news. Haha!” Leah burst into laughter and hung up the phone.
Olivia, oh, Olivia, you are my excellent granddaughter who inherits all my outstanding genes. Youpossess exquisite beauty, and even the talented Gunnar, the top genius in Capitalis, fell in love withyou. You’re making Grandma proud!
While Leah reveled in her happiness, Gunnar, on the other hand, was taking out his anger on hissurroundings.
Bam!
Crack!
His phone, television, coffee table—anything within sight was smashed.novelbin
