They parted on bad terms!
With Mrs. Jenkins at the helm, Seraphina and the others sought a lawyer to prepare for a lawsuit.
Olivia Jenkins remained noncommittal, returning to her villa by Pearl Lake.
Daniel Marshall wasn’t home.
Olivia stayed in the guest room, opening the box her father had given her before.
Inside were the toys from her childhood, which her father had preserved so carefully.
Suddenly, Olivia’s tears fell silently.
She examined each one carefully, touching them, and her tears flowed even more intensely.
Underneath the toys was a folder and a small box.
Surprisingly, when Olivia opened the small box, there was an official seal.
Inside the folder was a letter and two expert reports.
Olivia read them all, learned the truth, and sobbed out loud. Everything was now clear, but her heart twanged with pain.
She could only imagine how much her father must have suffered in his final days.
She could imagine how hard it was for her father to bear it all alone.
She resented herself for opening the box only now, missing the chance to apologize to her father, to share his burden, to accompany him through his treatment and illness…
Olivia cried bitterly.
After a long while, her tears gradually subsided.
Olivia made a decision, starting from today, she would protect the Jenkins Group for her father and live up to his trust.
She had heard from her assistant these past few days that her father had wanted to cooperate with the Bennett Group before he died. This was the best way for the Jenkins Group to obtain funding. However, her father had been unable to contact Jordan Bennett, not even to arrange a meeting.
No matter what, for the sake of business, Olivia was determined to meet with Jordan Bennett.
In the president’s office at Marshall Corporation, Martin Wallace and Adam Howard were present.
Martin eyed Daniel with an inquisitive look, “Aren’t you going to help your wife? The Jenkins family isn’t willing to accept Andrew Jenkins’ will and is preparing to go to court. They’ll definitely apply for pre-litigation asset preservation. The Jenkins Group is twenty billion in debt and more vulnerable than ever. Your wife is now practically a lamb waiting to be slaughtered!”
Daniel’s lips pursed tightly, and his indifferent face gave no clue to his true emotions.
After a moment of silence, Adam smiled and said, ‘You’re virtually taking over the Jenkins Group effortlessly. Daniel, you knew your sister-in-law was the inheritor of the Jenkins Group, didn’t you?”
At Daniel’s icy glare, Adam’s smile froze instantly.
Martin reminded, “Let me just say this beforehand, I have a high standard of professional ethics, and I’m fully responsible to my clients!”
Coldly, Daniel told Adam, “Keep an eye on Henry Charles, don’t let him escape.”
Pressing his lips together, Martin asked, “That’s all?”
Daniel swept a cold, sinister look at Martin, and instantly, Martin fell silent.
Living under the same roof, Olivia left early and returned late, deliberately avoiding Daniel.
Daniel also didn’t seek out Olivia.
For two days, the pair hadn’t seen each other or exchanged a single word.
Just after a meeting, Olivia received news that Jordan Bennett had appeared at the Wuji Ice Hockey Arena.
Olivia rushed over immediately.
During the third match, with victory in sight, suddenly, a lightning-fast figure streaked past Jordan Bennett, stealing his ball.
The opponent also broke through his team’s defense and scored a goal.
Jordan Bennett pursed his lips, furrowing his brows as he stared at the opponent.
It turned out to be a woman, who was provocatively staring back at him.
A sexy smirk curled up at the corners of his lips, and Jordan Bennett let out a chuckle, intrigued.
At the next serve, Olivia went all out, competing with Jordan Bennett multiple times, just to catch his attention.
Under siege, Olivia ingeniously passed the ball, breaking through the defense and making a stunning assist.
To her surprise, the score was tied, and Jordan Bennett took an interest in the only woman on the field.
With the final minute ticking down and pressure mounting, the experienced Jordan Bennett got past five people and scored a crucial goal, winning the game!
Removing her helmet, Olivia gave a slight smile, looking towards Jordan Bennett, “President Bennett, my name is Olivia Jenkins, may I have 5 minutes of your time?”
Jordan narrowed his eyes, smirking roguishly as he studied Olivia. With a hand signal, his assistant handed over a room card.
“If you want to talk, come to my suite tonight.”
Raising an eyebrow, Olivia locked gazes with Jordan, accepted the room card, “President Bennett, see you tonight!”
In the evening, wearing a burgundy one-shoulder gown and carrying a proposal, Olivia went to the N&N Hotel.
After swiping the card, Olivia entered the presidential suite.
The living room was empty. As she ventured deeper inside, Olivia was surprised to see Daniel.
Daniel, not using his wheelchair, burned with anger in his hawkish eyes as he glared at Olivia.
Before she could explain, Daniel grabbed her and tossed her onto a chaise longue.
There was a ripping sound—
Olivia’s gown was torn apart by Daniel..
