Chapter 107

When she got inside, she did not treat Mrs. Sullivan immediately. Instead, the butler led her to the guest room on the second floor to rest. Mr. Brown’s demeanor was gentle. “Miss Olivia, you’ve had a long ride here. You must be tired. Rest for a while. Lunch is being prepared downstairs. The servants will invite you over to eat in a bit.”

Olivia nodded and entered the guest room.

Isaac sat on the sofa and waited for the butler to leave. His gaze landed on Olivia and gave her a probing look. “The Sullivan family has treated you like this, yet you still want to stay?”

Yanis also felt unhappy and voiced his concern. He vigorously nodded. “Exactly, that’s right. Why did you stay, Miss Olivia? You shouldn’t have visited them.”

Olivia sat beside Isaac and hugged his arm. Her expression was relaxed, and she looked like a spoiled young daughter. “Grandpa, what do you think we should do?”

Only in front of Isaac would Olivia show this side of her.

She leaned against Isaac gently. “It’s human nature to care about one’s interests. Mrs. Sullivan is nothing more than a human being.” She said. with a tone of sass in her voice, “Didn’t you teach me this? There’s no need to be upset about unimportant people.”

Isaac lowered his head and patted Olivia’s head dotingly. His expression was gentle, but his words were cold and indifferent. “I did teach you to be strong–willed and not be affected by external factors or be upset with unimportant people. But I didn’t tell you to be soft–hearted and easily forgive those who offend you without giving any punishment!”

Olivia looked up with surprise in her beautiful eyes.

Isaac had always been a gentle and kind elder. He rarely got angry at people, even when he encountered some unreasonable patients or when patients attacked him. Instead, he would put himself in the patient’s shoes and think from the patient’s perspective.

This was the first time Olivia had seen him angry.

She was a little puzzled and blinked. “Grandpa, speaking of which, Mrs. Sullivan isn’t wrong. She just doesn’t like me.” Daniel’s mother was always very sophisticated but distant and cold, not an unkind woman, Why was Isaac so angry over such a small matter?

Mrs. Sullivan’s actions were minor compared to those barbarians who had insulted and even wanted to hit her.

Isaac’s eyes were serious, and he still had that sage–like appearance. However, when he spoke, his tone was filled with deep coldness. “I can tolerate those people bullying me, but they can’t bully you, Olivia. Never!”

His voice was filled with anger.

Olivia was stunned at first. Then, her heart was filled with warmth and softness.

This was the feeling of being cared for. This was the feeling of family. Her eyes were wet as she leaned into Isaac’s arms. Her voice was soft. “Grandpa.”

It was amazing to know someone was around to back her up.

Isaac looked at Olivia with grief. Olivia had suffered so much. He turned to Yanis and instructed softly, “Get Blake to come over. You and Blake must stay here and protect Olivia.”

How would that work?‘

Olivia instantly sat up straight with disapproval written all over her face. Yanis was Isaac’s confidant.

Yanis handled all matters in the Smith family. If she let Yanis stay by her side, wouldn’t that mean no one would be by Isaac’s side?

What’s more… Olivia bit her lip as a hint of sadness flashed across her eyes.

When they were away from home, Yanis represented Isaac and mobilized half of the Smith family’s assets. The Smith family assets were meant to be passed on to Jarron and Gillian.

What would Jarron and Gillian think if Yanis stayed by her side?

“Olivia.” Isaac tapped on Olivia’s forehead to stop her from rejecting his order. He made a decision immediately. “It’s settled. I still have the final say in the Smith family.”

Olivia was silent for a moment before saying, “Grandpa, I know you care about me, but…”

“No buts.” Isaac interrupted Olivia and said firmly, “The Smith family is my responsibility. I have the final say, and I must decide who to leave it Billionaire’s Missing Darling #5 vouchers 1. to. No one else has the right to make the decision. Jarron, Gillian, and yourself were all adopted by me. You are all one family.”

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and looked straight into Olivia’s eyes. His gaze was firm and resolute. “If you don’t want this responsibility, donate everything belonging to the Smith family. Even if we no longer have any inheritance and are cut off for thousands of years, I will never leave Jarron and Gillian with the responsibility of the Smith family. They will ruin the Smith family’s reputation.”

Isaac’s tone suddenly became serious. “I’ve already fulfilled my responsibility by raising you. The Smith family is mine. I can give it to whoever I want. No one has the right to interfere. Olivia, you have to be clear about one thing. It’s not that you stole everything from Jarron and Gillian, but they don’t have the right to inherit anything. I never thought of handing the Smith family over to them from the beginning!”

“You don’t have to feel guilty, and you don’t have to go far away. You’re the successor of the Smith family, and it can only be you. You’ve done enough. You even gave up studying medicine and chose to go abroad. I gave them a chance to try and prove they can take over the Smith family, but neither has shown talent. No means no. I can give them another five or ten years, or even fifty years, and they still won’t understand the essence of the Smith family’s miraculous treatments.”

“It’s been five years, Olivia. It’s been five years. I’ve already given you five years to do what you want.

You forgave Mrs. Sullivan’s cruel treatment and even the Taylor family, who abandoned you for over ten years. Why are you so ruthless to only me? Are you going to abandon me, leave everything behind, and ignore the Smith family?”

Looking at her grandfather’s sad but expectant and passionate gaze, Olivia’s throat felt hoarse and painful, as if she had been smoking.

She wanted to speak to respond to her grandfather, but she heard a thud before she could.

It was Yanis kneeling on the ground!

“Miss Olivia, are you going to give up on the Smith family and abandon us?”

Olivia’s expression was shocked. She was stunned for a moment before she quickly went to help Yanis up. Her voice choked as she said, “Mr. Yanis, what are you doing? You’re being ridiculous right now.”

All along, she had always treated Yanis as an elder.

It could be said that Yanis and Blake took care of Olivia while Isaac grew older and was too busy with his medical duties.

Yanis was a strong–spirited man who was always courageous. No one could put him down. No matter how much Olivia cried and begged and tried to lift him, he did not get up and continued to kneel there.

Olivia was in despair. She turned around and asked Isaac for help. She had a sobbing voice.

“Grandpa…”

Isaac slowly bent over, lowered his eyes, and looked straight into the depths of Olivia. “You can give up studying medicine and leave Jarron and Gillian to inherit the Smith family. Why can’t you come back for Yanis and me? Are we not as good as them? Do we have no place in your heart? Don’t you care about us at all?”

Olivia shook her head vigorously. She felt as if something was blocking her heart, making her unable to breathe. She felt so uncomfortable like she was about to die.

“It’s not that. It’s not that.” She kept shaking her head.

It wasn’t like that. Her grandfather was important. He was the most important person in her life. She just felt that Jarron and Gillian could also inherit the Smith family. She wanted everyone to be happy and thought everyone would be satisfied if she gave in.

She didn’t abandon her grandfather for them, no.

Isaac took off his emerald ring and handed it to Olivia.

“The head of the Smith family should wear this emerald ring. With it, you can rally all the Smith family members and make them listen to your orders. Today, I’m giving it to you. After I die, you’ll be the head of the Smith family!”
