Daniel Marshall and Olivia Jenkins sat on the sofa, with Daniel embracing Olivia, apparently telling everyone in the room that as long as he was there, no one could bully Olivia.
Michael Marshall didn’t take Daniel’s statement seriously. He glared at Olivia without disguising his disdain that stabbed sharply like a knife.
No emotions wavered on Olivia’s face. She ignored her father-in-law’s opinion. A trace of disdain swept across her eyes as she coldly glanced at Bella Thompson.
Bella was definitely up to her old tricks of stirring up trouble and sowing discord
There was an emotion of disdain still present in Olivia’s eyes. Deep down, she looked down on the actions of the Marshall family, especially her father-in-law who seemed blind, unable to distinguish right from wrong.
Bella didn’t dare make a sound; it wasn’t her turn to express her opinion. She secretly observed the old man’s reaction, guessing the old man’s thoughts, she was only concerned about her own interests.
No matter how much Olivia, this despicable woman, disliked her mother-in-law, Bella was still her mother-in-law. She would always be above Olivia. Bella didn’t deign Olivia’s disregard for her, still maintaining an air of superiority.
Daniel and Olivia had arrived, sat for a while, and yet the living room remained quiet. No one took the initiative to break the icy silence. Alexander Marshall’s sharp gaze scanned around like a hawk’s.
Frustrated, Alexander could see everyone’s intentions. Biting his lips, he said, What an disappointing family! Everyone scheming their own plots.
Are they here to gaze at each other? Even a blind date wouldn’t be this silent. Suddenly, Olivia was the first to break the frozen atmosphere.
“Grandfather, what do you want to say?”
Alexander’s stern gaze lightly swept over Olivia. “They think you’re wrong. Do you know what you’ve done wrong, girl?”
Olivia blinked in confusion, “Where is the mistake?”
Alexander stared sharply at Bella, “You think she’s wrong. Tell us what wrong she’s done. What grievance do you have with her? What’s causing all this fuss?” The old man suddenly turned his accusatory finger toward her, startling Bella. As Bella stared back at the old man, she shivered under his menacing gaze, a wave of panic and fear swept over her.
In the midst of her hesitation, Michael spoke coldly. “Dad, you’re clearly favoring one side. Can’t the elders in the family monitor their daughters-in-law? Ever since this woman married into the Marshall family, what has she done that’s been reassuring? When did she not cause chaos in the
Marshall family?”
Daniel revealed a scornful and sarcastic smile, dismissing them casually. “When was it not someone deliberately sowing discord? When was it not someone hoping the Marshall family fell into chaos? When was it not someone fantasizing about reaping the benefits of the fishermen? The intentions of some are clearly laid on the table. Dad, can’t you see? Do you think everyone is blind?”
Michael’s gaze turned stern, rage boiling in his chest. He shouted angrily, “Shut up! Daniel, you’re getting more and more insolent! How can you be so confused by the lies?”
Daniel’s gaze was like a frosty blade, cold and ruthless. His deep voice brought a chilling sensation, “Dad, I suggest you get a good pair of glasses, and make sure you clean them properly. I’m worried that you’ll stumble one day without
Imowing it.”
Bursting into laughter, Olivia couldn’t help herself. Everyone was looking at Olivia except for Daniel..
