Margaret has been bittered about Olivia and her useless husband, Charles all her life. She was bittered because Olivia was loved by their grandpa and was treated with exceptional care and attention despite that she was older than her.While their grandpa, Lord Marcus was still alive and headed the Marcus family and family business, he made Olivia the procurement manager of their family business and placed her on a salary scale higher than everyone else's own.Back then, Olivia was still in high school while Margaret, who was her elder cousin sister, was in college, yet their grandpa, Lord Marcus, hired Olivia over Margaret to be the procurement manager of Thompson Petrochemical Group.Even Benjamin Marcus, Margaret’s Father, was working under Olivia as her subordinates.Lord Marcus despised every other person in the family but chose Olivia as his favorite granddaughter and Andrea, Olivia's father who was equally his first son as his apparent heir.When Olivia finished high school and
Every other members of the Marcus family excluding Olivia, Charles and her parents were also seated waiting for Olivia's arrival so that they could tear her apart. Likewise, the staff members and trustees of Thompson Petrochemical group were seated for the emergency meeting.They've all been notified of the meeting the previous day.However, Olivia's parents, Andrea and Rose were not in the conference hall for the meeting. They were not informed of the meeting and they were not also at the company for work the previous day as they had taken a day off from work.When Andrea entered his office for work, he didn't see his subordinate staff members. He was the head of the logistics department yet he was unaware of the development.His younger brother, Benjamin Marcus and his family had played on his intelligence in their plots to override him and his entire family.Surprised and angry that none of his subordinate staff members were at the office for work even when it was already 9:00 O'Cl
Lady Marcus was annoyed with the way her two sons were fighting and disgracing themselves in public. She scolded them and called for order and tranquility amongst them. “Sorry, Mom!” Andrea said and took his seat. “Sorry, Mom but Andrea has formed it as a habit to always come late to meetings both in the family and at the company.” Then Lady Marcus asked, “Andrea, why are you coming now and where is Olivia?” Andrea responded calmly but in confusion, “Mom, I didn't know that there was a meeting scheduled to hold today. I only came here because none of our logistics department’ staff members were at the office and when I called Lily to ask her why nobody was at work, she sounded very abstract and absurd. As for Olivia and that she should be in her office because we both came to work together earlier today.” Then Lady Marcus then called Jack out and asked, “Jack, didn't you circulate the memo of the emergency meeting to everybody yesterday?” “Grandma, I circulated the memo as
He charged to fight Charles back.He flung his fist into the air across Charles' face but was however blocked by Charles' strong arm and he got both his phalanges and metacarpals shattered into pieces.“Argh! Ouch!” He screamed and moaned in pain and fell on the floor.“Ouch! Why did you break my hands, you good-for-nothing b*stard!” Jack growled angrily from the floor when he lay crying in pain. At the same time he cried out to his father and grandma calling for help, “Dad, grandma, This scumbag broke my bones. Please, don't let him leave this place alive!”It was as if he had hit his fisted hand on a strong sledge hammer.“How dare you hit your hands on my son, you b*stard of an unknown b*tch?!” came a cowering male voice that belonged to one of the attendees of the emergency meeting.Seeing what had happened to his son, Benjamin jolted up from where he was sitting and hurriedly rushed to confront Charles. “Who invited you here? Have you not been warned never to come or get yourself
Olivia shook her head dismissively, “I'm sorry Grandma, but could you please stop calling my husband useless and shameless he-goat because he is not a he-goat neither is he shameless nor useless. Also, I want to tell you again as I have done before that I will never divorce Charles no matter what may happen. That's Grandpa's last wish for me and it's my choice and decision. I can't also forfeit the car to the company because the car does not belong to me but Charles. He bought it with his own resources.”Stunned.Olivia's decisive response stunned everyone in the room including lady Marcus’s friends who were also among the members of board of trustees and directors of Thompson Petrochemical Group's and they began to exchange murmurs amongst themselves.“Unbelievable! This is quite unbelievable! Is she really choosing that scumbag over her grandma or something else??”“If you ask me, then who will I ask?”“Was Miss Marcus really telling the truth just now? Did Mr Damian Gold from Goldm
She brightened up and said, “Thank you so much Dad, for not being mad at me. I know that my decision will hurt us but I can't afford to fail grandpa and I have also begun to have some feelings for Charles.”“You're welcomed, my dear,” Andrea chimed. “Let's quickly leave this place for them.”He was no longer comfortable staying there and watching his younger brother together with his children making fun of him, his daughter and his son-in-law, Charles because of his mother’s irrational hatred and awkward attitudes towards his family.“Charles come take me home,” Andrea said while he turned and exited the conference room immediately.Olivia followed her father and exited the conference hall too, however instead of going with her father to the company's parking lot where Charles parked their car, she went upstairs into her former office to pick up all her belongings that were still remaining there.Charles pulled out his phone from his pocket and sent a text message to Scarlett Sage fro
Buzz! Buzz!Her phone vibrated and sprang up with the sms notification alert.“You have one new message from the vice chairman of Megan Group!” announced by the assistive text-to-speech technology software application also known as ‘read aloud app’ that had been installed in her phone.At the same time, the same sms notification alert also popped into Benjamin's phone.Lady Marcus paused and aggressively grabbed her phone checking to know the kind of message that the vice chairman of Megan Group had sent across.Her mind was already troubled as she was having a bad feeling that Olivia's dissolution might bring bad news to her family business group which was why she kept the position vacant and only appointed Benjamin, her beloved son, to act in that capacity pending when Olivia might have a change of mind attitude towards her. She had only dissolved her as the executive chairman of Thompson Petrochemical group and as well as disowning both her and her parents to threaten her so that s
Margaret also reported her own findings and feedback, “Grandma, that b*tch is gone. I didn't find her in the office…”“Shut up your mouth!” Lady Marcus, frowned, staggered and barked aggressively at Margaret over her calling Olivia a bitch. “Don't you know she is your younger sister and the savior of this company?!”Next she ordered, “Benjamin, quick, call her right now and tell her to come back to this place immediately and if she doesn't pick her call, then call your elder brother.”Everybody in the conference hall including security guards and cleaner were surprised and confused at the dramatic character of the old lady. Her sudden twist of actions was something they could not digest to understand so easily.Didn't she disowned Andrea and his family just now?Why the sudden change?Why is she acting so strange?Some of them were caught up by flash of memories and they remembered Charles' audacious threat and last statement to the old lady.‘None of you should panic because I'm not
