Chapter 560
Olivia stopped in her tracks and subconsciously retreated. “No! I’m innocent!”
“Whether you were innocent or not, we naturally have our considerations.” As she spoke, the policeforcefully took her from the scene, disregarding her willingness.
Bertha Cruise saw the situation and rushed forward. “You can’t take her away! My daughter iswronged!”
The police officer said expressionlessly, “If she were wrongly accused, we would naturally clear hername. Now, we have to take her away for investigation. I hope you can cooperate. Otherwise, we willtake measures against you on the grounds of obstructing official business.”
When Bertha heard this, she immediately wanted to retreat.
She looked at Olivia Cruise and pursed her lips. “Olivia, don’t worry. Your father and I will think of away.”
As she spoke, she took a step to the side.
Seeing Olivia being taken away, Mrs. Wright immediately went up to her. “Miss Cruise, you promised togive me one million dollars previously. You can’t go back on your word!”
“Get lost!” Olivia was extremely annoyed. When she saw Mrs. Wright, who could not do anything right,she immediately kicked her away without thinking.
Mrs. Wright (sta gg ered) and fell to the ground. “Ouch!”
She clutched her chest and struggled to get up. When she looked up, she saw a pair of high heels.
Her gaze slowly moved up.
The moment he saw Lynn, the embarrassment on her face was swept away, and she returned to herusual bossy attitude. “What are you standing there for? Hurry up and help me up!”
As she spoke, she slowly raised an arm, like a queen waiting for someone to serve her.
However, Lynn acted as if she did not hear her and did not move at all.
Seeing that Lynn did not react for a long time, Mrs. Wright frowned, and her eyes were filled with anger.“You (da mn bit*h! Do you really want to see your mother make a fool of herself?”
“Are you talking to me?” Lynn’s tone was flat as if she was talking to a stranger.
Mrs. Wright frowned. “Nonsense! You’re my daughter. Who else can I talk to if I don’t talk to you?”
“But we’ve already broken off our mother-daughter relationship. From now on, we have nothing to dowith each other.” Lynn said, “You said yourself that you don’t want me as your daughter. Everyoneheard it.”
Over the years, Mrs. Wright had long been used to Lynn’s submissive attitude. Now that she sawLynn’s indifference, she was at a loss.
“You… Child, what are you talking about?” Mrs. Wright smiled awkwardly and got up from the groundwith her hands and feet. “We’re mother and daughter. As the saying goes, blood ties are deep. Howcan you sever your relationship with me?”
“Then just take it that I’m dead,” Lynn answered.
She did not want to be entangled with her mother anymore, nor did she want to waste her breath. Shesimply turned around and left.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wright hurriedly chased after her. “What right do you have to sever ties with me?Besides, if you leave, what will happen to your brother? He’s your biological brother. You can’t ignorehis life!”
As Mrs. Wright’s voice faded away, the reporters at the scene slowly came back to their senses.
No one expected that a press conference would cause so much trouble.
Although the theme of the press conference was obviously off track, the reporters gained a lot. Theywatched one drama unfold after another.
Meanwhile, the Cruise family members were already very embarrassed.
In just half a day, the Cruise Group was trending on the internet.
Some mischievous netizens even made memes of Mrs. Wright asking for Olivia Cruise for one milliondollars and watched them repeatedly.
Rachel could not help but smile happily as she watched the drama unfold.
At this moment, there was a knock on her office door.
“Come in!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Linda Galler led Haley Bean and Lynn Wright in.
The moment the two saw Rachel Grey, their pupils constricted and their expressions changed. Theylooked at her in disbelief.
“Please take a seat.” Rachel gestured for them to sit opposite her.
Haley and Lynn looked at each other and sat opposite Rachel nervously.
Rachel looked at their hesitant expressions and said frankly, “If you have anything to say, feel free toask.”
Lynn was the first to speak. “Since you’re managing the Johnson Corporation, why don’t you just buyover the Cruise Group?”
Not long after Johnson Corporation’s Ms. Grey took office, she resolved many of the company’sshortcomings neatly. With continuous innovation, Johnson Corporation became famous in the industry.
At the same time, Ms. Grey’s name became more and more popular.
However, everyone only knew that Ms. Grey’s surname was Grey, and her gender was female. Therest was unknowIL.
Lynn would never have thought that Johnson Corporation’s Ms. Grey was actually Rachel Grey, whowas targeted by Olivia Cruise.
“The current Cruise Group is not as good as before. Moreover, my analysis of its operations over thepast two years shows a huge problem with its operating funds. In that case, why should I take over?”
The corners of Rachel’s mouth curled into a faint smile. She clearly did not have many expressions, butit made people inexplicably afraid. “I’m in business, not charity. Even if Johnson Corporation has a bigbusiness, we can’t afford to squander like this, right?”
Hearing this, Lynn choked and was unable to refute it.
No one knew the current situation of the Cruise Group better than she did.
It was just a huge paper tiger. If not for Marina Jones’ sudden appearance and secret support, theCruise Group might not have survived this year.
“What about the Smith family?” Haley asked. “You clearly have the ability to make the Smith family andthe Cruise family pay the price, but you let them off time and time again. You’re indecisive. It doesn’tseem like a characteristic of a decision maker.”
When Rachel heard this, a bright smile appeared on her lips. Her almond-shaped eyes contained afaint. layer of mockery. “Indeed, I don’t lack the ability and capital to make them lose everythingovernight, but a quick death is far less painful than living a life worse than death, right? Compared toslashing them. down quickly. I prefer watching the fish struggle in the mud.”
Haley and Lynn stared at the woman in front of them.
Her body was clearly filled with powerful aggression, but she smiled innocently and elegantly like anuninvolved expert. This attitude was probably something Olivia Cruise would never be able to learn inher life.
The two looked at each other, and a dark, complicated smile flashed across their eyes.
They secretly prayed for Olivia Cruise, hoping she could rot in hell.
“Take a look at this first. If there are no problems, sign it.” Rachel handed them the two contracts shehad prepared in advance.
Lynn was not in a hurry to take it. She looked at Rachel and asked, “Will you continue to sue OliviaCruise?”
“No,” Rachel replied.
Continuing the prosecution could land Olivia in jail, but that was not what she wanted to see, nor was itwhat she wanted.
“Then why did you use me to deal with her?” Lynn looked at Rachel in confusion.
