Chapter 252

Needless to say, Olivine was beyond delighted. Ha! Lady Luck has finally blessed me with the perfect opportunity! Even if Evander falls for Angeline again, there's no way a scandalous woman like her will be accepted into the prestigious Golding family.

“No need to get mad, Old Mrs. Golding,” Olivine gently comforted as she placed her cup down and rubbed Valerie's shoulder.

“It's not worth worrying yourself sick over a woman like that. Evander was just blindly infatuated with her.”

Upon hearing those words and realizing Angeline had tainted the Golding family's reputation, Valerie exploded with rage, “What's wrong with Evander? How could he have fallen for such an atrocious woman?”

“Let's not blame Evander now, Old Mrs. Golding. Our priority is to block the news from getting published, especially since some reporter's have already taken photos of Evander and Angeline together.”

“What?” Valerie exclaimed as she leaped to her feet, looking absolutely livid. “Which media company is it? How dare they disrespect the Golding family!”

A glint instantly flashed across Olivine's eyes.

“Well, you know how fast news spreads among media companies. It'll be hard to block them all unless we can find a way to extricate Evander from this mess.”

Perceptive as always, Valerie fell silent and began pacing around with the aid of her- walking stick. Of course, it didn't take long before a plan came to mind.

With that, she quickly turned around and held Olivine's hand.

“Olivine, you and Evander have known each since you were kids, and I've always regarded you as my granddaughter-in-law. Alas, it was never made official, and I deeply regret that. It must've been tough on you.”

Even though tears had started welling up in Olivine's eyes, she put on a brave front and shook her head understandingly.

“It's okay, Old Mrs. Golding. I'm willing to wait for Evander no matter how long it takes.”
