Chapter 929

The temperature in the meeting room suddenly reached freezing point. Everyone knew that Dorothy and Olivia’s relationship was like ice and fire and they were on bad terms. However, one of them was the major shareholder with 20% equity in hand and the other was the young lady of the Jameson family. They could not afford to provoke any of them. Coupled with the two young masters, whoever they chose now may be feared by the other side, and the losses would definitely outweigh the gains. Someone then opened their mouth. “Everyone, why don’t we invite Mr. Quinton back to settle this?” “I’m fine with that.” Dorothy looked at Olivia coldly and said in a strange tone, “But I think someone might disagree with it since the monkey can only call itself king when the tiger isn’t here.” “Dorothy Jameson, shut up!” Fabian understood his current situation and knew that trying hard now would only make everything worse. He also knew Jimmy’s personality. As long as he did not do anything over the line, Zac would not be kicked out of the company. As long as he was still in the company, anything could happen. Besides, Dorothy could not be trusted at all. She seemed to be helping him to gain more power now, but she could backstab him anytime. “Fabian, what are you doing? I’m helping you, but you’re asking me to shut up?” Fabian stood up and walked over to pull Dorothy back. He then grabbed her waist and said in a deep voice, “You’d better stay quiet. You won’t get any advantages if Father comes back.” “You’re afraid that you won’t be able to divorce me when Father comes back, right?” “I’m warning you, stop making trouble or I won’t forgive you.” Fabian’s tone became a little heavier. He really wanted to shut Dorothy’s mouth, but he was afraid that others would find out that something was wrong, so he could only warn her like this and hope that she knew the limits. However, Dorothy had no limits. She then pushed Fabian away and walked toward Olivia. “Phoebe, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid that Father will find out about whatever you did when he returns? Or is the equity in your hands actually fake and you’re scared that you’ll be exposed?” Olivia agreed with her. “Sure. Call Father back and call the police too.” “What are you trying to do?” Olivia’s eyes darkened. “What else? Do you think you can escape from burying my daughter alive?” Dorothy backed off a little. “What are you talking about? What proof do you have? Besides…” She deliberately paused and looked at Olivia with a mocking look, saying, “Isn’t she an illegitimate child? You two have only been married for months. How can she be your kid? Are you counting on Father to help you for the sake of an illegitimate child?” “Dorothy Jameson, watch your mouth!” Olivia could not be bothered if Dorothy scolded her, but Dorothy could not scold Lyla! “What’s wrong? I’m just saying the truth?” Dorothy had no desire to tone down. “The more you dislike it, the more I’ll say it! Illegitimate child! She’s an illegitimate child!” Slap! Olivia could not endure it and gave Dorothy a slap while clenching her teeth. “I told you not to call my daughter illegitimate!” Dorothy covered her burning cheek and snorted. “Explain if you can! Which random man is her father?!” “That’s enough!” Zac pulled Olivia back to his side and patted her hand. “That’s enough, my dear. Let me handle the rest.” Olivia felt a strain in her chest and was somewhat worried that Zac might tell the truth. Yet the next second, she heard Zac saying, “The child is mine.” Olivia trembled and looked at him in confusion. She then saw him looking at her with a smile while continuing, “I met Pheebs in Linphea City five years ago. Our marriage isn’t that spontaneous.” “Five years ago? Impossible!” Dorothy did not buy his words and sneered. “You had a crush on Olivia Larson four years ago, and she’s her substitute. How could you have known her before this?”
