When She Stops Playing Nice
Chapter 360
Lisa smiled and hugged Ginaâs arm, saying, âGina, weâre good friends. If you have any troubles, you can tell me. Iâll help you
solve them.â
Gina smiled. âThank you, Lisa,â
The smiles of Lise and Gina were so terrifying to Ben. Werenât they conspiring to murder him openly?
Ben weighed the pros and cons inwardly. Up until now, The medicine he sold had not caused any deaths. His final sentence might be life imprisonment, but there was still hope for him to live. However, if he continued to argue, he might very well die. Benâs psychological defense was broken.
âThe ashes were collected from various orphanages in the country!â
Ginaâs heart skipped a beat when she heard the word orphanage.
âWhat orphanages are there!â Gina asked anxiously.
âMany, so many⦠Ben replied fearfully.
Gina ordered. âMake a list. Now!â
âOkay, okay.â
Ben nodded profusely. Then, Ben was locked up in the escort vehicle. Lisa got someone to prepare a pen and paper for Ben. Ben wrote down the name list without stopping.
Ben was temporarily transported from Willieâs mansion to the countryâs jail.
Ben gave the list to Gina before going to jail.
When Gina saw the C
Clago Orphanage on the list, her anxious heart became even more uneasy.
The Clago Orphanage was the orphanage that Gina had once taken in. Not long ago, she had donated 300 million dollars to the Clago Orphanageâ¦
Norwood.
Ethan slept until the afternoon.
He heard his doorbell ring nonâstop as soon as he woke up.
Ethan got up impatiently and walked to the balcony to see Olivia standing at the door.
What did Olivia want when she came knocking on his door?
He saw the nanny talking to Olivia through the door.
The nanny was probably chasing Olivia away.
Ethan changed his clothes and went downstairs to meet Olivia.
âMr. Jackson is resting. Miss Miller, please leave. I canât open the door for you!â The nanny was still persuading Olivia. âMiss Miller, if you were still Mr. Jacksonâs fiancée in the past, it wouldnât be a big deal for me to open the door for you to enter. But things are different now, arenât they?â
Olivia rolled her eyes and wanted to curse. However, she ignored the nanny when she saw Ethan walking toward her.
The nanny also heard the footsteps. âMr. Jackson, youâre up.â

Ethan nodded and said, âLet her in.â
âSure thingâ
The nanny quickly opened the door for Olivia and walked away.
Olivia looked warily at Ethan. âI should call you Mr. Jackson now, right? Calling you Mr. Ethan can no longer reflect your status as a successful man.â
Ethan sneered. âWhatâs going on? Did you smear honey on your mouth when you went out today? You talked sweetly.
âAlso, donât call me Mr. Jackson. Call me Mr. Ethan.â
Calling Ethan Mr. Jackson gave Ethan a feeling that he was hearing people calling him Gabriel Jackson. When he was called little Mr. Jackson, he would feel he was inferior to Gabriel. Ehen felt comfortable hearing people call him Mr. Ethan.
Olivia was too lazy to pretend. âSure, Mr. Ethan. Didnât I hear that you got SCIâs investment? I especially came to congratulate you. Letâs go in and talk?â
âHey.â Ethan blocked Oliviaâs way. âI didnât invite you in, did I? Not everyone can enter my house. Say it here if you have anything to say.â
Olivia was furious. Damn, Ethan. However, Ethanâs business was indeed improving. Olivia had no choice but to smile apologetically. âAlright, Mr. Ethan. Letâs talk wherever you say,
âMr. Ethan, do you still remember what you said before? You said I could invest in your allâinâone medical examination. machine project when I have money. Is it right?â
Ethan had indeed said that but did not answer Olivia directly. âYou have money now? How much do you plan to invest?â âOne million dollars,â said Olivia.
When Ethan heard one million dollars, he laughed and mocked Olivia, âOne million dollars. Did I hear wrongly? I thought it was 10 million dollars. If it were 10 million dollars, I would consider it. One million dollars. Do you think my project is small?â
Olivia endured it. I only have this much money for the time beingâ
Then you can save more. Ethan yawned and prepared to ask the nanny to see Olivia off.
Olivia panicked. She grabbed Ethanâs arm and said, âEthan, you broke your word. Back then, you said I could look for you to invest as long as I had money. You didnât say how much money I had to raise before I could invest, right? I do have money on hand now. How can you be so shameless?â
Ethan pulled Oliviaâs hand away in disdain. âOlivia, itâs only been a few minutes, and you canât pretend anymore? You kept calling me Mr. Ethan just now, but now youâre calling me by my name?
âGet this straight. Youâre the one who wants to invest in my project now. Iâm not the one begging you to invest. Besides, I donât care about your one million dollars.â
Ethan dusted his sleeves in disdain.
Olivia gritted her teeth, Ethan had always liked to pretend. Now that he had gotten lucky and made it into a project, he was even more pretentious.
Ethan looked at Oliviaâs unconvinced expression and said, âOlivia, look at how exasperated you are. Itâs funny. Do you remember how you scolded me at the engagement banquet back then? You said Iâm a goodâforânothing and a parasite of the Jackson family. I need to rely on Gabriel to give me food mercifully!â
Olivia was speechless. âYouâre holding a grudge. So, were you only trying to fool me when you said I would invest when I got money?
âHolding a grudge? You bitch. You had scolded me before so many people back then. You still wonât allow me to hold a grudge?â
Chapter 360
It would be better if they did not mention the past. Olivia exploded at the mention of the past. âWhat about you? Didnât you also scold me? You even beat me with your mother. Ethan Jackson, you â
Digging up their old scores, Ethan and Olivia got mad simultaneously and almost into a fight.
Olivia calmed down first. âAlright, letâs not talk about the past anymore. Now is not the time to talk about it. After all, itâs all Ginaâs fault for what happened at the engagement party. Gina deliberately caused trouble at our engagement party.â
Ethan also felt Olivia was right. Their engagement party wouldnât have ended so badly if it hadnât been for Gina. After all, Ethan could kick Olivia out even if he found out Oliviaâs private life was messy later. They wouldnât have to make a scene and let others see them as a joke.
