Chapter 68
When She Stops Playing Nice
Chapter 68
Olivia numbly shouted three times and became the idiot who received the most attention on the entire street.
The passersby looked at the woman who was cursing herself at the entrance of a Hosten store with the gaze of someone seeing a m e n t l patient.
Some onlookers who werenât afraid of causing trouble were recording videos.
Olivia found out, and she shouted at those people at the top of her lungs, âWhat are you recording? Delete it! Delete it!â
The passersby were shocked and quickly ran away.
Standing in the store. Ethan also felt embarrassed. For a moment, he didnât even want this girlfriend anymore.
Moreover, Oliviaâs look when she hysterically shouted at passersby just now really frightened him. He had never seen Olivia so shrewish.
After Olivia shouted, she ran away without looking back.
Gabrielâs expression darkened. He wanted to order someone to stop Olivia, but he was refused by Gina. âItâs okay,â she said.
âOkay,â Gabriel said. Tll listen to you, Gina.â
The expression on the sales assistantâs face was varied. She thought, âAt first, I had a hard time suppressing my laughter when I saw the angelic bit** hâs embarrassing moment, and now I see Mr. Jackson treating Miss Miller differently from others. Even the way he looks at Miss Miller carries a hint of tender affection. What an unparalleled sweet love story! So envious!â
Olivia ran away without looking back, leaving Ethan alone in the store. Ethan was now in a fluster.
He trembled and asked hesitantly, âUncle Gabriel, can I leave now?â
Gabriel really treasured his âdating time with Gina.
He was already very displeased that Ethan and Olivia had come to cause trouble. He did not want to waste time with Ethan, so he said, âGet lost!â
Ethan felt like he had been granted a reprieve.
He quickly ran away.
âOkay, Gina, Gabriel said. âNo oneâs bothering us now.â
His lips curled into a faint smile. âIâll get them to deliver the handbags to your place. By the way, I also bought you a handbag shelf. Should come in handy, right?â
âYes,â Gina said as she nodded. She usually just carried her canvas handbag.
She just casually hung it on a h**k.
There was indeed no suitable place to put her handbag at home.
She did not expect Cabriel to be such a meticulous person.
âThere are too many handbags, so Iâve arranged for someone to place them for you,â Gabriel said.
No matter how serious or trivial a matter was, he would arrange things well.

Gina was slightly stunned. She hesitated for a moment before saying, âI donât like outsiders entering my house.â
âI wonder if I am considered an outsider,â Gabriel said. âIâll help you put the handbags.â
Gina thought, âWith so many handbags, itâs indeed difficult for me to handle alone. She then replied, âSure.â
A hint of smiling expression appeared on Gabrielâs face. He thought, âIt seems like Gina has taken a further step in accepting the, allowing me into her home.â
Gabriel was very happy.
Meanwhile, after Olivia ran off for a while, she realized that Ethan did not catch up with her. He did not even send her a
message.
She immediately felt a bit angry and called Ethan, saying, âWhere are you? Why arenât you coming to look for me?â
Ethan covered the swelling on his face and replied, âYou go tome first.â
âWhatâs with your attitude?â Olivia said. âIâve already been humiliated by Gina. You donât feel sorry for me and donât want to comfort me, huh? Plus, you didnât even manage to buy a handbag.â
âYou still have the nerve to say that,â Gabriel said. âIf you hadnât made a fuss about buying a handbag, such a thing wouldnât have happened! I was even beaten up by my uncle. Do you care about me? You only care about yourself!â
Ethan vented all his anger on Olivia.
âStop f***g bothering me,â Ethan said before hanging up the call without hesitation.
He was very frustrated. He even suspected that Olivia was not as gentle, obedient, and sensible as she appeared.
He thought, âBut thatâs not the point. What did Uncle Gabriel just say? Heâs pursuing Gina? If Gina really marries into the Jackson family, things will turn messy. No way. Iâve got to stop all of this from happening!â
At Prover Hospital, Neil was chatting with Gabriel, keeping track of his progress with Gina in real-time.
Gabriel texted: [Iâm organizing the handbags I bought for Gina.]
Neil smiled happily at the phone, thinking, âRascal. I was worried that he wouldnât wise up and wouldnât know how to pursue a girl. Turns out, heâs quite good at it!â
There was a knock on the door of the ward.
âGrandpa.â
Neil looked up and saw that Ethan had arrived. He then put down his phone.
He thought, âWait a minute. Why does half of Ethanâs face look so swollen?â
Neil squinted and said, âWhat happened to your face?â
âI was beaten up,â Ethan said.
âWho beat you up? Neil asked. His expression became serious
âGrandpa, you will stand up for nie, right?â Ethan said.

Neil was stunned. âWhat exactly happened?â he said. âTell me.â
Ethan said with a forced attitude, âUncle Gabriel hit mel
âGabriel?â Neil thought.
He was a little surprised. âAlthough Gabriel is usually strict with you younger ones, he wouldnât just hit you like that, would he?â he said. âLet me ask and find out.â
Coincidentally, he was chatting with Gabriel.

A call was made. It was so fast that Ethan could not stop him in time.
âForget it,â Ethan thought. Iâve already chosen to complain to Grandpa. Itâs only a matter of time before Uncle Gabriel finds out. I believe Grandpa will surely not side with that outsider!
Gabriel picked up the phone. âHello?â
âWhat happened?â Neil said. âDid you hit your nephew?â
I did, Gabriel said.
âWhy?â Neil asked.
âHe and his fiancée spoke rudely to Gina,â Gabriel said succinctly.
Neil instantly looked displeased.
Ethan became nervous. âGrandpa, please listen to my explanation,â he said.
âShoot!â Neil said, trying his best to remain calm.
Ethan thought, I know clearly that Gina has used some ways to make Grandpa quite fond of her. Thatâs because Grandpa hasnât seen Ginaâs true colors. Today, Iâm going to expose all the ugly things Gina has done.â
He gulped. He was a little afraid of Gabriel on the other end of the line. âGrandpa, hang up first,â he said.
âLetâs hang up,â Gabriel said. âIâm spending time with Gina.â Gabriel did not want to waste time. He was not surprised that Ethan complained to Neil.
âAlright,â Neil said. After hanging up, Neilâs attention turned to Ethan. âCan you tell me now?â
Ethan looked at his grandfatherâs somewhat displeased expression and felt inexplicably nervous. âGrandpa, I know you like Gina,â he said.
He thought, Iâve got no idea what he likes about her! Olivia is a well-bred young lady after all. Can she not compare to Gina, that country bumpkin?
Ethan could not figure it out. He always felt that his grandfather had been indifferent to Olivia for so many years.
He thought, âGrandpa has just known Gina for a short period, yet heâs so kind to her? Thatâs absurd!â
âBut you surely have no idea how vicious she is,â Ethan said. âWhen she stayed in the Miller familyâs home, she put pesticide in her brotherâs food. After her father had a stroke, she even started to have her eye on the Miller familyâs property and forged a will herself.â
