Chapter 727: Chapter 726
The phone call was quickly connected.
Marisa Walsh’s voice ca through: “Oliver, what’s going on? Is everything taken care of now?”
Oliver Horton got straight to the point: “It’s done. Co pick up!”
“Pick you up? What happened? What was the outco?” Marisa sounded very anxious.
Oliver finally exhaled in relief.
Earlier, when Lewis Horton and lissa Knight were questioning him, although Oliver spoke firmly, he still didn’t feel confident deep down.
But Marisa’s anxious tone now made him feel reassured.
Oliver spoke in a low voice: “Lewis kicked out of the family, but don’t be afraid, Marisa, we can rise from the ashes!”
“What? Lewis is outrageous to do sothing like that! Oliver, what do you an by ‘rise from the ashes’? Do you have sothing up your sleeve?”
“Exactly. Over the years, I haven’t been idling in the business world. I have connections and resources. Give all the money, and sooner or later, we’ll make it big.”
Marisa paused: “Give you all the money? What money?”
Oliver froze: “The money I’ve been giving you all these years!”
Marisa imdiately responded: “Oh, oh, you an that money? Lewis kicked you out of the family and didn’t give you a single penny? That’s just too much!”
“Exactly, it’s way too much!”
“And Dad? What did he say?”
“Don’t ask too much now. Just co pick up! We’ll talk about Dad when we et.”
“Alright, wait for for a little while.”
Marisa said this and then hung up the phone.
–
In a luxurious villa in Clance.
Marisa hung up the phone and looked anxiously at Selena Horton: “Your dad’s been kicked out of the family. If we go pick him up, will it drag us down?”
Selena imdiately replied: “Mom, don’t rush. Let make so calls and find out what’s going on.”
Once she finished speaking, she picked up her phone and started making calls.
After calling around, Selena returned with fear written all over her face: “Mom, I heard Lewis has already made it known in his circles. Whoever dares to do business or have dealings with Dad will be cut off from the Horton Family! If we bring him back now, it will definitely have an impact on us!”
Marisa quickly responded: “Then what should we do? Your dad is still waiting for us. If we don’t go pick him up, he’ll surely find his own way here!”
Selena frowned: “Looks like we can’t stay in this house anymore.”
Marisa hesitated for a mont: “What do you an?”
“Mom, pack our things!”
…
Outside the Horton gates.
The chilly wind blew, carrying a hint of coldness.
Only wearing a shirt, Oliver Horton rubbed his arms and looked into the distance again. Beside him, lissa Knight jeered at him: “You just called, and that Marisa kept asking and asking. Looks like she doesn’t want to co pick you up!”
“Watch your filthy mouth! Marisa isn’t that kind of person!”
Oliver imdiately retorted.
lissa sneered: “Oh? What kind of person is she? Your sweetheart?”
Oliver snorted coldly and took out his phone: “Marisa’s place has caras. Let show you! She must already be on her way!”
After speaking, Oliver opened the cara feed on his phone and looked at it.
Sure enough, he saw a car slowly pulling out from the villa’s gate, the driver waiting at the entrance.
Oliver imdiately held up his phone and showed it to lissa: “See that? Marisa has already set out so quickly!”
lissa glanced at it, hesitated slightly, and even thought for a mont: Was she really overthinking this?
Could it be that Marisa really had co to pick him up?
But then lissa burst into laughter.
Whether she had overthought or not didn’t really matter. If soone was going to take care of Oliver, it delighted her anyway. At least Jake wouldn’t be bothered anymore in the future.
Oliver mocked: “See, she really set out. Didn’t you get proven wrong?”
lissa looked at Oliver directly: “I hope she continues to prove wrong. And I also hope you stop bothering Jake.”
“Ha, don’t worry. Even if I starve to death, I wouldn’t turn to you two ungrateful wretches!”
Oliver gritted his teeth, glaring fiercely at Jake Horton: “You’re so greedy for money, you won’t have any good fortune! Jake Horton, if you think sticking by your uncle’s side will lead to him treating you well, you’re mistaken. He confiscated my shares, but that doesn’t an he gave them to you, does it? He’s not exactly running a charity!”
Old Mrs. Horton deliberately went after to split the inheritance evenly; otherwise, wouldn’t it just be trouble for Lewis?
Oliver had finally pieced everything together, his face darkening further.
“All of you are money-hungry vultures, with nothing in your hearts and minds but profits! You’re nothing like my Marisa, who only has eyes and a heart for ! You’ll all face retribution!”
lissa taunted: “Then let’s wait for your Marisa to pick you up before you start preaching!”
Oliver imdiately gestured toward the video on his phone: “Marisa is on her way now, and yet you keep saying such things. It’s clear you’ll stir up drama no matter what…”
Just as he finished speaking, the villa door opened, and Marisa Walsh and Selena Horton stepped out.
Oliver’s face broke into a slight smile, ready to say sothing, but suddenly noticed Marisa dragging several suitcases behind her…
