Alexander Marshall started laughing, dismissively saying.
“Braggadocio, utter drivel, your sharp tongue is all you have, you insolent girl!”
Olivia Jenkins’s beautiful face shone with self-confidence and pride. Without uttering a single vulgar word, she fired back, “Grandfather, you’re already at an age where you should understand your destiny. Even with your scheming and manipulations, do you really think you can outsmart fate itself?”
Suddenly, Alexander Marshall’s face turned ashen. His gaze darkened, he fixed a stern gaze at Olivia Jenkins, “How dare you, you insolent girl, curse me with death! It’ll be you who meets a terrible end!”
“Grandfather, honestly speaking, you’re quite arrogant! While you are alive and well, you can suppress the unrest in the Marshall Family. But plans can’t beat changes, and no one knows whether misfortune or blessings strike first. Are you so sure the Marshall Family will remain untroubled?”
Alexander Marshall stared at Olivia Jenkins with an intimidating gaze.
Still, he felt a flicker of unusual emotion within him.
This mischievous girl has some wit; her words were not without reason, which
was precisely what he was worried about.
Alexander Marshall remained obstinate, emotionlessly saying, “No matter what you say, you need to leave Daniel. You are nothing but trouble, causing him nothing but problems.”
“As I’ve said before, give me two billion and I’ll leave him. You’re reluctant to shell out the cash, yet you want things done your way? Grandfather, where on earth do you think you can get such a cheap deal? Since you’re so eager for me to leave, why don’t you loosen your purse strings? Once you’ve parted with your money, Daniel and I can part ways in peace. This way, you won’t have to endure this annoyance anymore. Isn’t that great?”
Alexander Marshall stared at Olivia Jenkins with sunken eyes.
This insolent girl sure knows how to infuriate people, and moreover, without uttering a single vulgar word. Her tactics are far more sophisticated and grounded than Bella Thompson’s.
If this insolent girl was obedient, not rebellious, not always clashing with the Marshall Family, willing to extend the Marshall family line, then he wouldn’t need to worry so much. Perhaps she could even become a good wife for Daniel.
However, this insolent girl was like a wild horse that refused to be tamed; at times fierce, stirring up unrest in the Marshall family.
He despised the fact that she was a flirt, leading men on.
Daniel had already ended up losing respect and decorum within the family because of her. After weighing the matter, Alexander Marshall was still determined not to let Olivia Jenkins stay. He couldn’t afford to invite another disaster to the Marshall Family.
“You married Daniel for money, didn’t you? I never thought you’d love him, you didn’t even bother to pretend. So, I won’t give you two billion. I have my means to make you leave Daniel willingly. As for the Jenkins Family, watch your back. I won’t touch you, but I’ll make those you care about suffer.”
In an instant, Olivia Jenkins glared at Alexander Marshall venomously, warning fiercely, “If anything happens to the Jenkins Family, I will make sure to tear down the Marshall Family. Moreover, I will see to it that your lineage ends.”
“This insolent girl sure has a temper, let’s wait and see then!”
“Grandfather, you’re old. Serene City is no longer under your absolute control. For the sake of your descendants, I urge you to be virtuous, to accumulate some good karma for them. Otherwise, they will be the ones to bear your retribution. In this world, what goes around comes around. Your retribution will come; it’s only a matter of time. You better live a long life because it would be such a shame if you missed such a fantastic show!”
Without a trace of fear, Olivia Jenkins locked eyes with her grandfather in a silent showdown.
Alexander Marshall’s eyes involuntarily narrowed, his pupils contracting, his facial expression seemed to violently twitch.
“You won’t get your way! You insolent girl, you better live long too. Otherwise, it would be too lonely for me to enjoy the happiness of a family without you as the foil!” Leaving with a huff of anger, a disgust flashed in his eyes..
