Chapter 217 Let’s Go Home
Anna sobbed while begging Olivia, “Olivia, I know it was my mistake. I honestly know that it was my fault. I just feel like you’re better than me in everything, and I’m so jealous of you. Let me go this time, and I promise you that I’ll never do such things to you in the future, okay?”
Olivia grabbed Anna by her collar while glaring at her viciously. “You should have thought of the current consequences when you did that to my son.”
After snarling, Olivia smashed Anna’s head against the ground again, producing a loud thud.
It was another huge blow, and Anna saw white spots blooming in her vision. After feeling as if her world was spinning, she fainted again.
When she was woken up by a basin of cold water the second time, Anna only had one thought in her mind. Please just let me die!
The same cycle went on several times before Olivia put aside her fierce and ruthless aura. She looked down at the disheveled Anna, who was slumped on the floor. “Have you learned your lesson this time?”
Anna seemed as if she had lost her mind; she did not scream in pain, nor did she beg for mercy anymore.
Olivia’s lips curled into a cruel smirk. “You’d better remember this—I’ll end your life if this happens again!”
Upon saying that, she stood up to leave the room.
Lone Wolf, who was standing just outside of the room, asked while chuckling, “Have you vented your frustrations?”
Olivia put aside her cruel and fierce aura, and she answered, “Can you guys please toss her out? Throw her away as far as possible; I don’t want to cause trouble for you guys.”
Lone Wolf answered while smiling at her, “No worries. Nobody has the courage to create trouble for us!”
Olivia chuckled when she heard that too. “North is still young. Thank you for looking after him.”
Lone Wolf replied to her, “No, North is very mature, and he doesn’t seem like a young child at all. Otherwise, our group wouldn’t have only realized that today.”
Olivia was slightly surprised. “You guys didn’t know about his age?”
Lone Wolf cackled while answering her, “Yup, only I knew about it, but the others didn’t. Before Peacock met him, she had been fantasizing on developing a love relationship with him! She was even asking him unhappily whether he would mind if his girlfriend were older than him by more than ten years.”
Olivia laughed in embarrassment. “You guys have such a good vibe. It is no wonder North fancy you guys so much.”
“His family is our family. From now on, just holler at us if you need any help at all!” answered Lone Wolf.
Olivia nodded. “Sure; I design clothes, and I’m practicing medicine. Just let me know if you need anything from these fields!”
Lone Wolf laughed. “Sure.”
They both chatted while making their way to the conference room.
At that moment, Eugene and North were no longer in front of the computer; instead, they were seated on the couch obediently.
North dashed to Olivia when he saw her. “Mommy—”
Olivia bent down to pick him up. “Let’s go home!”
North nodded while bidding farewell to the few people in the headquarters. Finally, they left the Will-o’-Wisp Headquarters.
Olivia was adamant on holding onto North until they got into the car.
Eugene offered to carry North for a few times, but she just wouldn’t let go of him. Eugene knew that the child was not the only scared one—Olivia was scared witless too.
The intensity of the cruelty Olivia had for Anna was directly proportionate to how scared she was!
Both mother and son had relied on each other to survive for many years, and so they always had each other’s best interest at heart.
After getting into the car, Kyle drove, whereas Eugene sat in the front seat.
Olivia and North sat in the back of the car. The pair were clinging onto each other, and they looked especially pitiful and helpless.
Eugene felt as if his heart was being stabbed over countless times, and it ached constantly.
They arrived at Muse Peninsula.
A man and woman welcomed them as soon as they got out of the car. “Olivia, is the child alright?”
“Kate, why are you here?” Olivia was shocked.
Kate answered anxiously, “I phoned you many times, but you didn’t pick up, and so I figured I’d wait here for you. How is the little guy?”
Olivia answered her, “He’s fine. Don’t you know the passcode to my house? Why didn’t you wait inside?”
Kate smiled while glancing at the man beside her. “Jasper mentioned that he’s a stranger, and so it’s inappropriate to enter your home. Therefore, we waited in the car.”
