Adam's expression wasn't any better than hers, rubbing his brow, he said, "I asked around and it seems like it was Mr. Welch's idea."

Oliva tightly gripped the rosary in her hand, murmuring restlessly, "Wasn't Mr. Welch transferred from Nemmington? How could he possibly be involved in this?"

The new mayor of Melcester, was, in fact, from the renowned family of Nemmington. He was merely here to add a feather to his cap.

After staying for two years, I still had to go back.

People like this generally wouldn't interfere in local trivial matters.

They looked down on me!

Adam pursed his lips. He had been deeply involved in Melcester for many years and had some connections. He turned to ask his mother, "Would Mr. Payne know Mr. Welch?"

The beads in Oliva's hands were twirling rapidly, her eyelids twitching. She always felt that the truth wasn't as it seemed, but for a moment, she couldn't think of any other possibilities.

"I had met Mr. Welch a few times before, I'll go and try to replace him. Perhaps he would do me this favor out of respect for this old lady."

No sooner had her words fallen than Clifton's call came through.

Oliva had aged, her hearing was not good, so she usually turned on the speaker when answering the phone.

She had just fed.

The voice from Clifton across was as if on fire, so urgent that it seemed. to blister his mouth.

"Ms. Herring, what exactly is Myrna's background? Didn't you tell me before that this was just a case of a student causing trouble, and that she only had the Payne family behind her?" "Yeah, did I need to lie to you?"

"Why then is the state police department also investigating me? Since this morning. I've received three or four calls, all about the Melcester Central High School incident. Ms. Herring, think carefully about who Myrna really is, we haven't offended someone we shouldn't have, have we? If it really doesn't work out, I'll buy some gifts and go to their house to apologize."

Just a second ago, Oliva had insisted that Myrna must come and apologize in person before she would even consider letting it go.

In less than half an hour, the situation had completely turned around.

She comforted Clifton with a few words, hung up the phone, but still felt uneasy.

Subconsciously furrowing his brow, he looked at his son, "Since when did the Payne family have such a wide network?"

Lawrence from the state police department was notoriously difficult to get along with. Despite living for several decades, she had never seen him stand up for anyone.

But that Myrna gradually became a thorn in her heart. Every time she thought of her age and the humiliation she had to endure, her heart ached as if it was being pricked by a needle. "...Let's talk about it later, let's see." Olivia, feeling annoyed and confused, brushed off the conversation with a few perfunctory words, allowing Kenny to help her back to her room.

At that moment, a rush of cold air surged to her head, making her so angry that she felt dizzy and saw stars.

She feared that if she didn't go to rest in the room, she would faint here out of anger.

At the age

of seventy, she was surprisingly slapped in the face like this by someone!

Phaeton drove home smoothly.

At home, Cedric was scratching his head, not knowing how to persuade the little guy on the sofa who was acting tough.

"Mr. Alfredo, if you spoke to Mr. Gaven like that just now, he would get angry."

Alfredo didn't even bat an eye, equally indignant, "If he doesn't help my sister, I won't love him anymore!
