Chapter 242 I'm Not Marrying Ms. Pearce
Chapter 242 I'm Not Marrying Ms. Pearce
Olivia did not expect things to happen like this. Although she did not know which link of her plan failed,
she wouldn't admit that she was the mastermind of it.
"Dad, I don't know why this is happening. I mean, this has nothing to do with me."
Drake was not surprised seeing that Olivia refused to admit it. It would be weird if she did.
"The woman inside, get dressed and get out of here!"
Abby hadn't come back to her senses yet. But the roar frightened her. She quickly put on her clothes
and got out, her legs weak.
"Old Mr. Riley."
Although the Old Riley retired a long time ago, his name was known to everyone. His aura was still
intimidating.
"Why are you at my house? Explain!"
"I..."
Abby subconsciously looked at Olivia when she spoke.
Olivia yelled, "What are you looking at me for? Did I ask you to come?"
Abby understood that Olivia was trying to disassociate herself from her.
However, she knew that she could not afford to offend the Riley family. When she was about to speak,
Drake spoke.
"Ms. Pearce, you can tell the truth. After all, since you and Roman have slept together, my grandfather
will ask Roman to be responsible for you."
Responsible?
Did that mean she would marry Roman?
Was she going to marry Roman and watch her beloved one showing up around her every day?
"I'm not going to marry this woman!"
Abby didn't want to marry Roman. Nor did Roman want to marry her.
Drake glanced at Roman and said, "Ms. Pearce didn't force you, did she? And since she is here, you
two are close, aren't you?"
"Grandpa, Roman is young, but you must have heard of Ms. Pearce, right? Grandpa. I believe you can
tell what kind of person she is at a glance."
"Besides, older women are more considerate. I think it's good for Roman if he can marry Ms. Pearce."
Olivia couldn't bear it anymore. "Drake, what are you talking about?"
Drake snorted. "Olivia, it has happened. We have all seen it. What will people think of the Riley family if
they found out about this? They would say that Roman play with women and then abandon them."
Roman was frightened. He cried for help. "Mom, I don't want to marry Ms. Pearce. Really, I'd rather die
than marry her." This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Abby's face darkened. She didn't want to marry Roman either. She had figured out what was going on.
However, she felt humiliated about being rejected by a man in front of so many people.
"Old Mr. Riley, don't worry. I don't want to marry your grandson!" Her voice was cold.
The Old Riley asked curiously, "Oh? If you don't want to marry Roman, why are you here?"
Before Abby spoke, she noticed Olivia's warning gaze.
She admitted that she was in bad luck today.
"Mr. Riley, I don't want to talk about what happened today. In short, I don't need anyone in your family
to be responsible for me. Nor would I mention to anyone what happened here. So, please, may I leave
now?"
Drake didn't mean to let her go. "I don't think you should leave now!"
Abby bit her lip tightly. She knew that Drake was a cold man and yet his ruthlessness still shocked her.
"You should tell the truth. If you were forced by anyone, just tell us, my grandpa will do you justice."
Abby looked at Drake and after a while, she slowly looked at the Old Riley and said, "Old Mr. Riley, you
can rest assured. No one forced me. And I can promise you that I don't need the Riley family to be
responsible."
The Old Riley frowned. "Are you sure?"
"Yes, I'm sure!"
Abby knew that she would stand no chance to be together with Drake from now on.
"Well, in that case, you can go. And remember what you said today, never show up in the Riley family's
territory again."
Abby bit her lip again, "Okay!"
She dressed up. And there was nothing worth sticking around for.
A moment ago, she thought she and Drake would be together, but the next second, she damaged all
her chances to be together with him.
Drake did not expect Abby to be so tenacious. She didn't give Olivia away. So, it would be useless
even if he went on accusing Olivia now.
"Grandpa, if there is nothing else, I got to go!"
"Alright!"
Drake gave Baron a warning glance before he left.
Baron was stunned. What did Drake mean? Was he reminding him not to do anything for now?
Baron didn't know what happened but he could tell that it was all Olivia's trick.
Baron didn't know Olivia well before, but after Sophia reminded him, he disliked Olivia even more.
Now Olivia wanted to hurt his son, how could he control his anger? He wanted to do something but
Drake didn't let him.
The Old Riley looked at Roman and said, "Roman, you know very well that our family have strict rules.
But you brought that woman here, fooled around with her, and broke the rule. Now, go in that corner
and stand to reflect on youself."
"Mom!"
When Roman was young, he had been punished to go in that corner and stand many times because of
Drake. As he grew up, he learned to behave himself and yet he was frightened of being punished.
Olivia had thought of the situation thoroughly. If Roman didn't admit his fault, the blame would be put on
her.
And the punishment would be much more severe if she was to blame.
"Roman, do it!"
"Mom!"
Roman looked at Olivia and couldn't believe his ears.
Olivia looked at Roman in warning when Roman was about to tell the truth.
Roman didn't understand. Why was he the one being punished in the end?
Olivia forcefully took him to the corner of the yard.
Baron looked at the Old Riley.
"Dad, you are a wise man. I am sure you know there's more to what happened today."
