When She Stops Playing Nice by Hale Saxon

Chapter 59

“Then you could have just said directly that you couldn’t do it,” Ella said, finally venting her anger. “Why fake a fracture? Our family is already in a mess, and you are still adding to it?”

She thought. My two sons are in the hospital. James couldn’t get into Prover Hospital, and there’s the issue with Dale Group’s withdrawal of funding… A heap of things and a mess. They’re giving me a headache! Olivia doesn’t share the burden or ease worries, yet she still causes trouble. So insensible!“

Ella even had the thought that she had doted on Olivia for so many years for nothing.

“Mom, don’t be angry.” Olivia said. “Getting angry is bad for your health. If you want to scold me, go ahead and scold me. The current situation at home is not something I want to see either. If Gina hadn’t provoked Miss Bush back then, I wouldn’t have been beaten up by Miss Bush. Neither would I have thought of lying”

Olivia shifted the blame to Gina…

Noah also chimed in, “Mom, Olivia is just insecure. You know she’s more sensitive. This silly girl is always worried that we won’t want her anymore. What’s more, her little lie isn’t a big deal, right? Besides, aren’t all the terrible things that happened in our family related to Gina? I think she’s deliberately playing tricks to cause chaos in the Miller family so that she can achieve her objective of seeking revenge. Back then, I just put her design under Olivia’s name, and she had the audacity to demand 600 million dollars. We’re a family, so why is she so particular about individual contributions? She even beat Liam. So, we must now stay harmonious and peaceful. We mustn’t let Gina have her way and see us in discord!”

Ella felt that what his son said made sense. She thought, “Plus, Jasmine was indeed provoked by Gina. Gina is the scourge of our family!’

Even though Peter had clarified that he had been bribed to slander Gina as a jinx, Ella still believed that Gina was probably the nemesis of the Miller family who specifically came to cause trouble for them.

She thought, Maybe I should go get some kind of charm one day!

“Mom?” Noah said. “Mom? What are you thinking?”

His voice brought Ella’s wandering mind to the present.

Ella glanced at Olivia and was no longer as angry. After all, Olivia was a daughter whom she had raised for over twenty years. They shared a strong emotional bond.

She thought, “What’s more, I still hope that after Olivia marries into the Jackson family, she’ll help elevate the Miller family’s

status.

She let out a sigh and said, “Alright. Let’s forget about this matter. Don’t bring it up anymore. Olivia, were you hurt just

now?”

Seeing that Ella was finally willing to care about her, Olivia heaved a sigh of relief.

“Nope,” Olivia said, “Mom. From today onward, I’ll make sure to work hard on my sketches. I was too insensible previously. Now that the Miller family is in troubled times, I’ll definitely work hard to help you and my brothers solve the problems.”

Seeing Olivia making such a promise sincerely, Ella was somewhat gratified. She thought, ‘She admits mistakes and changes for the better, so she’s still my good daughter. Noah is right. Our family should be harmonious. As for Gina, who has severed ties with us, there’s no need to think about her!’

“It’s good that you have this intention,” she said.

After comforting Ella, Noah accompanied Olivia back to the room. The two of them were alone in the room. Olivia snuggled up in Noah’s arms, saying, “Noah, thank you for helping me comfort Mom. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know what to

do.”

Noah patted Olivia’s back and said, “This is what an older brother should do.”

Olivia started to subtly accuse Gina again. “I didn’t expect Gina to hate me so much,” she said. “I don’t know what she did to. make Miss Bush hit me time and time again. I’m really scared!”

Noah was instantly infuriated when he heard his beloved sister’s sweet cries. He suddenly remembered that he still had a

spare y of giving it a try, he called Gina. Unexpectedly, Gina answered.

By now, Gina had already finished dining with Gabriel. Gabriel suddenly had official business to attend to and went to the study to deal with it. Isaac took her around for a tour. She did not understand why Isaac showed her around the villa, including the locations of other people’s rooms.

When Gina saw an unfamiliar incoming call, her first reaction was to hang up. But due to clumsiness, she pressed the answer button. Just as she was about to hang up, she heard Noah’s angry voice berating her. “Gina, you are not going to stop until you’ve caused trouble for every member of the Miller family, right?” he said. “What did you say to Jasmine? It caused Olivia to be humiliated by her again, and she nearly got injured.”

“Just nearly?” Gina asked calmly and indifferently in return.

Noah was stunned. He did not expect Gina to respond like this. It was very sarcastic and infuriating

“What do you mean?” he said. “You wish so badly that Olivia would get hit?”

“Not really wishing so badly for it,” Gina said with a half-smile. “Just somewhat wishing for it.”

Rather than seeing Olivia get beaten up, she preferred seeing Olivia’s reputation get ruined and that she would be isolated. with no help given. After all, this was how Olivia schemed against her when she was still part of the Miller family.

What she did was just an eye for an eye.

“D a m n !”

Noah was so angry that he could not speak for a long while. “You’re truly vicious!” he said. “You’ll get your just deserts!”

Gina thought Noah was going to threaten her again, saying that he would definitely not let her off.

Unexpectedly, he came up with new lines.

She thought, ‘He’s well aware that he is no longer a match for me, huh?”

“Where are you now?” Noah said. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He did not want to ruin the protective brother image he had built in front of Olivia. He asked with a sense of uncertainty. Even if he knew where Gina was, there was no way he would go straight to Gina to settle scores with her.

Gina did not want to answer Noah’s boring question, but then it suddenly occurred to her that the Miller family seemed to be very afraid that she would stay in touch with the Jackson family.

So, she changed her mind.

“I’m at the Jackson family mansion,” she replied.

“What?” Noah and Olivia said. They were stunned.

They were instantly filled with many questions.

‘Why is Gina at the Jackson mansion?’ they thought: What does she want to do there?”

“Stop lying.” Noah said. “You are at the Jackson mansion? Why did you go there? Neil invited you there?”

Gina did not continue to answer, leaving it at that.

She hung up the phone and blocked Noah’s backup number.

She decided to ignore it. She knew that Noah would definitely speculate about why she was at the Jackson family’s home and such questions, so much so that he would be distressed,

Someone may not be able to sleep tonight, she thought.

“Miss Miller, let me take you to the photo gallery room.” Isaac’s voice brought Gina’s mind to the present moment.

“Huh?” Gina said. “Photo gallery room?”

That’s right,” Isaac explained. “It’s the room where many photos of the members of the Jackson family are displayed.”

Gina was slightly surprised to learn that the Jackson family’s home actually had a room dedicated to displaying photos.
