Chapter 288
Chapter 290: Chapter 289 Chapter 290: Chapter 289 Mary Davis clenched her fists tightly.
She knew what kind of demand her great uncle would make next…
But she looked at her father, whose face was swollen from being beaten, looked at her mother, who was restrained by bodyguards and couldn’t struggle, and then looked at her grandmother, who had rushed over upon hearing the noise in the living room but had fainted from shock…
She knew that none of this was Ellis Olsen’s fault.
Because if it weren’t for him, she would have already fallen victim to Boss Dawson at the restaurant today…
Without enough ability to protect herself, without making any significant accomplishments in the company to be valued by the first branch, and with her uncle’s group constantly suppressing her father…
Mary Davis had anticipated this situation today.
But deep down, she still resented Ellis Olsen a bit.
At the same time, she secretly blamed herself: she was really useless!
She couldn’t protect her parents or save her best friend.
In the end, she could only obediently become one of her great uncle’s social butterflies…
Mary Davis sat on the ground, feeling a sense of powerlessness wash over her.
Mr. Davis was struggling to get up from the ground: “Mary, don’t agree to him p>
Mrs. Davis also looked over incredulously…
Seeing this, Mary Davis finally lowered her eyes, “Alright, I will obey. From now on, I’ll listen to you–just spare my parents p>
Only then was her great uncle satisfied.
He stepped forward, grabbed Mary Davis’s chin, “Tomorrow night at six, follow me to the hotel and charm Boss Dawson for me p>
Leaving those words behind, he left with his bodyguards…
This news quickly reached Ellis Olsen’s ears.
At that moment, he was in the Olsen Family study, listening to his assistant’s report, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.
He hadn’t expected Mary Davis’s life to be so rough?
The assistant cautiously asked, “Young Master Olsen, she is, after all, your woman. Shouldn’t you stop this p>
“No need p>
Ellis Olsen suppressed the reluctance in his heart and coldly scoffed, “Dare to plot against Keera, and you must pay these prices p>
Upon hearing this, the assistant looked at him again, “What about that contract with her company, should we still help p>
“Since I promised her, I won’t interfere p>
Ellis Olsen lowered his eyes, “However, two million; I’ll help Keera pay it back afterward p>
The assistant nodded, “That works too, just right to let Ms. Tang see what kind of man her husband is. Perhaps after this ordeal, it might really cure her love-struck mind p>
Ellis Olsen, however, curled his lip, “If she really gets over her love-struck mind, it means there’s still hope. When that happens, acknowledge her back as Tang’s sister and let Uncle Olsen re-educate her p>
After saying this, he instructed the assistant, “Keep a close eye on the Keera situation, after all, she’s Uncle Olsen’s daughter, can’t let her suffer too much p>
“Yes, and what about Miss Davis p>
Ellis Olsen was silent for a moment, then finally said coldly, “Leave her be p>
That night, however, Ellis Olsen dreamt of her.
He dreamt of Mary Davis’s pure white skin, dreamt of her pleading sorrowfully on the couch, begging him to be quicker… just as he was about to soften his heart and end it quickly, the scene suddenly shifted.
Mary Davis was under a corpulent man.
Her expression was uninhibited, casting a sidelong glance at him, “It’s not my first time, Young Master Olsen, don’t worry about it so much p>
Ellis Olsen jolted awake abruptly.
He rubbed his forehead, only feeling utterly bewildered.
No matter how much he tossed and turned, he couldn’t fall back asleep.
Having endured until morning, he got up, went to the company to handle some affairs, and after finishing meetings in the afternoon, he had just walked out of the conference room when his assistant hurried over, “Young Master Olsen, Howard, knowing we won’t help, has proposed a divorce to Miss Davis! I just received the news; he has printed out the divorce agreement and is forcing Miss Davis to sign it p>
Ellis Olsen’s pupils constricted, and he let out a cold laugh, “Let’s go have a look, thinking Keera has no maternal family to defend her, and he can bully her as he pleases p>
At this moment, Keira Olsen, whom Ellis Olsen thought was in a dire situation, was struggling to suppress a rising smile as she looked at the divorce agreement.
On the agreement, the company and villa were given to her.
Cindy Lloyd was mocking her, “Keera, Howard’s been married to you for so many years, now he’s giving you the house and the company, even the child, once Howard signs, you better sign promptly, understand p>
After she said this, she looked toward Howard.
Howard, at this moment, was staring at the two copies of the divorce agreement, zoning out, his expression faintly showing reluctance.
Three years!
He had been married to Keera for three years and only received a little cash.
During these three years, the first year’s income from the company was given to Keera as dividends, the second and third years’ salaries were given to him, roughly two million each year; out of which one hundred went to Keera for household expenses, another three hundred million went on Cindy Lloyd’s spending of about a million, and he spent some on entertainment. Now, only about ten-plus million in savings had been transferred out…
That meant, in all three years, he only took in ten-plus million?
Truly reluctant!
But the house and company were originally in Keera’s name, transferring ownership urgently was not feasible, wanting a clean break in the divorce meant giving her both the house and company!
Seeing him hesitate to sign, Keira Olsen’s eyes flickered, then she adopted a pained expression, “Howard, you can’t abandon me… Right now, Clance’s real estate market isn’t doing well, at most this villa can sell for fifteen million, the company has a twenty million debt contract, it can’t be sold off easily, in the end, I’ll have nothing and still bear millions in debt, you can’t do this to me p>
Howard panicked for a moment.
Yes, if they didn’t divorce, then as a married couple they would bear millions in debt!
Uncle Olsen had already sent someone over, making it clear no help would be provided…
He pushed Keira Olsen away and was about to sign.
Keira Olsen couldn’t immediately reveal her hopeful expression; she still maintained a sorrowful face.
But after seeing this, Howard’s mother couldn’t help but speak up, “Keera, with Howard divorcing you, you also need to look at your own faults! Who made you so incompetent? Even sleeping with Mr. Horton didn’t spark any interest in you! If Mr. Horton were willing to help, perhaps the company could still be saved, and you and Howard wouldn’t have reached this point p>
Keira Olsen really wanted to retort.
But seeing that Howard had already signed one contract and was about to sign the second, his pen hesitated again as if he was having second thoughts.
…Those rebukes and curses had to be swallowed back down.
Keira Olsen hung her head, crying again, “Howard, for the sake of our three years as husband and wife, don’t abandon me, please, I beg you, I haven’t worked in so many years, I can’t raise Amy alone with millions in debt p>
Hearing this, Howard no longer hesitated, and swiftly signed the second document.
Keira Olsen saw this and her lips curved slightly.
Cindy immediately handed the two contracts to her, “Keera, stop struggling, sign quickly! Otherwise, Howard and your mother-in-law won’t let you off easily! This marriage has been torture for you, don’t blame anyone else, blame yourself for not having a maternal family to back you, your in-laws will surely bully you then p>
Keira Olsen trembled as she took the contract.
To the three of them, she appeared devastated.
But heaven knows, how hard it was for Keira Olsen to hold back her laughter…
Just then, outside the Olsen family’s gate, a black luxury car screeched to a stop.
Ellis Olsen, along with his assistant, strode into the Olsen family’s villa’s gate!
