Unfinished Business with You

Chapter 40

Olivia had a menacing look on her face as she pressed harder. "Birds of the same feather flock together. Your whole family is trash!"

"Ah… Let me go!" Florence yelled.

Olivia gave North a look. "North, you better go now."

At this moment, North kept a straight face before yelling, "Mommy, we only reason with human beings and not other animals!"

These words made Olivia laugh. "Alright. You better go to class now."

North acknowledged it before casually walking into the school with his hands in his pockets.

Florence angrily looked at North while commenting hatefully, "He's really the son of a beggar; he doesn't know what manner is."

Olivia squinted, then swung at her, sending her flying. "Who do you think you are?"

Being caught completely off guard, Florence was slammed against the school's gate and bounced back, almost falling to the ground. Even though she was absolutely terrified, she still wanted to lash out at Olivia at this point.

"Olivia, you are truly disrespectful. How can you treat someone older than you like this? Fortunately, my son didn't marry you."

Olivia sneered. "Fortunately, I didn’t marry him. It would be very unlucky of me to have such a devious mother-in-law like you. Only someone like Anna can deal with you!" As she finished, she proceeded to

walk away.

"Olivia, where do you think you're going? I'm going to tell your dad!" Florence shouted, but Olivia pretended not to hear anything.

Meanwhile, the security guard came out of the school. "Is your son still coming in?"

Still slightly mad, Florence yelled at the security guard, "Didn't you see that my grandson just fell?" NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

The security guard was rendered speechless. "Then, help him up. That's no big deal. Isn't the kid that you pushed just fine? It's nothing serious."

His words shut Florence up. Then, she helped Mitchell up. "Mitch, let me have a look at you to see if you're okay."

Mitchell broke down and shouted, "My butt is hurting! I don't want to go to school today!"

Florence dusted him off and consoled, "Alright, alright. Let's go home then."

Then, she took him back inside the car as the security guard shook his head, feeling speechless. He could not bring himself to agree with this way of raising a child.

After Olivia got back, she immediately called Kate and Nathan over to her place for a big discussion.

"I'm going to open a fashion studio immediately, and we're going for the high-end market."

Kate supported her, "Sounds good! You'll be the founder. Since I'm in the fashion magazine industry, this makes us a perfect match."

Nathan added, "I can help you find a suitable shop location. I'm familiar with Summer City, so it's not a problem for me!"

Olivia turned to both of them and smiled. "Alright then. It's official. I'm going to make that family pay."

Kate and Nathan looked at each other. "What happened? Did you run into Anna again?"

Olivia puckered up her lips. "It was Anna's mother-in-law. I believe I've come to the realization that every time God puts you through hardships, you shouldn’t complain as the hardships may be God's way of saving you."

She put out such a profound statement all of a sudden, leaving Kate and Nathan even more confused.

"Did you guys fight?" Kate asked.

Olivia responded, "When she was sending Anna's child to school, that child ran too fast and knocked into North. North was fine but he fell…"

After recounting what happened this morning, she added, "Fortunately, I'm not her daughter-in-law. Otherwise, I might die young."
