Tatiana’s expression darkened at the mention of that matter. “Shut up. You knew very well that it’s taboo to talk about that around your
dad.”
“What sort of taboo is that? My dad must have abandoned his family
for wealth and glory back then.
“After that, he slowly climbed up the ranks with you. To be honest, my
dad is quite the jerk.”
“Nonsense. Who told you all that?”
Krystal stuck out her tongue. “M-My grandma told me that.”
“Your grandma is spouting nonsense. Times are different now. Now,
it’s the Benson family trying to gain your dad’s favor. You should be
aware of your dad’s temper.
“If you mention this matter in front of him, you’ll get slapped for sure.”
Krystal said, “I know. I’m just asking. That woman is so normal-
looking, and she doesn’t look like my dad at all. Don’t take it to heart,
Mom.”
“Yeah. You’ve seen how things turned out. Your dad and your brother
were too good to that wench, and they would even fire Alfred without
hesitation.
“You’d better be careful around that woman, too. She’s very smart.
You’re no match for her.”

Krystal snorted. “So what if she’s smart? She’s still an orphan without
a family. She’s a commoner who can never catch up to me!”
“Alright, enough of that. Just behave around your dad for the next few
days, and don’t get into any conflict with that woman.”
“Got it, Mom. About Mr. Warner …”
“Your dad is still mad about it, so we can only let Alfred endure for a
while longer. That woman will soon be forced off her high horse.”
A vicious look appeared in Tatiana’s eyes.
Olivia brought Mason back to the living room. Mason looked at Olivia
with a remorseful gaze, saying, “I’m sorry you had to be mistreated again, child.”
Mason knew very well who had brought about this incident, but
Tatiana was his wife. He couldn’t just humiliate Tatiana in public, so.
he played along and put all the blame on Alfred instead.
“It’s okay, I don’t mind it at all.”
“You’re just too soft.”
Olivia smiled. Letting go of the wheelchair, she began to make tea for
him. “Mr. Heath, I’m not soft at all. If I were truly soft, I wouldn’t have
gotten Mr. Linus to come over.
“I didn’t mean to blow it out of proportion, but if I endured it today, I
might have to endure even worse things in the Heath residence in the
future.
“You and Mr. Linus are always very busy, so I can’t make you two

come over every day just to defend me.
“Moreover, if I don’t want to be at a disadvantage, leaving is the best
option for me. But if I leave, Mr. Linus might have to go through the
trouble of getting me back here.
“If this goes on, we’ll only go back to square one. So, I’d rather make a huge fuss out of it. With this incident as an example, even if someone
wants to bully me in the future, they won’t dare to.”
Mason smiled comfortingly. “You’re quite smart. It’s a pity that yo
a woman. If you’re a man …”
“What happens if I’m a man?”
“You’ll be able to achieve great things on the battlefield. But these
days, women aren’t inferior to men in any way. There are quite a lot of
female diplomats, too.
“Child, do you have any needs in the future? You have great potential,
and I don’t want you to waste that potential.”
Olivia shook her head. “I just want to be a casual doctor. I don’t have
such great ambitions.”
“Alright, as you wish.”
Olivia looked at Mason. “Mr. Heath, why are you so nice to me? You didn’t have to go to such lengths for my sake in the incident just now.”
“I share the same opinions as you. I’d either refrain from fighting or beat them up so badly that they won’t be able to fight back. I don’t
want them to be a bother in the future.
“I think we’ll get along quite well, child.”
