Chapter 254
Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David)
Chapter 254 Making The Smith Family Bleed
âSilly girl, how could I blame you?â As he spoke, he pulled Olivia into his arms. and gently wiped away
the tears at the corner of her eyes. âThings went wrong in the company recently. Some people wanted
to withdraw their investment. Iâm still working on it.â
When Olivia heard this, her eyes flickered slightly. âIncluding Mr. Zane?â
Olivia had a dream of being an actress since she was young. She had never
dealt with business.
Not like Rachel and her tactics.
Therefore, when Olivia was curious about business, Louis was happy to answer her questions.
âItâs a few other investors,â Louis Smith said lightly. âI plan to draw them over to my side.â
When Mr. Zane publicly provoked him at the board meeting, he realized he should have taken
precautions.
Currently, all the investments were drawn over by Rachel.
These people trusted in Rachel, and there was no guarantee that one day Rachel would not lobby
them to divest and catch him off guard.
Olivia looked at him guiltily. âIâm sorry. Itâs all because of me. If it werenât for me, you wouldnât have
been misunderstood. The board wouldnât have made things difficult for you.â
âItâs not your fault.â Louis looked at Olivia in his arms with tenderness and comforted her gently. âBut at
this stage, itâs not suitable for us to announce our engagement. You might be feeling aggrieved.â
Olivia snuggled in his arms. âAs long as you love me with all your heart and soul, I could take any
grievances.â
Upon hearing this, Louis could not help but reveal a trace of guilt in his eyes. He hugged Olivia tightly
and said, âOlivia, donât worry. I will give you a grand wedding in the future.â
Olivia smiled and did not say anything. She suddenly thought of something and looked up at Louis. âI
heard that Mr. Zane and his wife are deeply in love. Perhaps thereâs something we can do about Mrs.
Zane?â
âMr. Zane only invested because of Rachelâs lobby. Although I donât know how she did it, Mr. Zaneâs
investment did bring the Smith Group a lot of
benefits.â
Louis did not even realize his eyes were filled with admiration for Rachel
when he talked about this.
It was a pain in the neck for Olivia.
She secretly gritted her teeth and lowered her eyes to hide the coldness in her eyes. âI met Mrs. Zane a
few times when I was doing charity work. She seems to be holding a charity auction next month. When
the time comes, weâll go and support her. Perhaps this could be a chance?â
Louis heard this and smiled. âYou are my good wife, always giving me advice at critical moments.â
âWell, after all, Iâm your legitimate fiancée.â Olivia smiled. She raised her head and gently kissed him on
his lips.
Rachel came out of the bathroom and received a call from Mary.
As soon as she picked it up, Maryâs voice came in. âHave you seen the message I sent you?â
âI just finished reading it.â Rachel casually wiped her wet hair, then walked to the counter and poured a
glass of water for herself. âAlthough the incident at the annual meeting has affected the reputation of
Smith Group to a certain. extent, it wonât make Smith Group go bankrupt. It wonât make them feel good
either.â
Five percent of the companyâs market value and the land in South Valley could be said to have made
the Smith family bleed.
Even if the company didnât die, it was still injured.
Mary said, âAfter the scandals of Louis and Olivia were exposed, the shares. of the Smith family fell
again and again. The board will not let it go!â
