Gillian planned to return to Mala and asked Jarron to go with her.

“You’re crazy!” Jarron disagreed. “There are still a lot of things to handle on this side of the Smith

family. We can’t just leave like that.”

Jarron said sternly, “If you want to leave, go by yourself. I’m not leaving.” Gillian sat on the sofa, silently

fidgeting with her fingers, not saying a word. After a while, she spoke with a gentle but resolute tone,

“Then I’ll go over first.” “I plan to go and find a job. Doctors in Mala earn a high salary, and as long as I

work diligently and take it one step at a time, I can make a good life for myself.” “Good life?” Jarron

sneered, his voice sharp. He looked down at Gillian and asked, “What kind of good life are you talking

about? Can you afford a big house in an upscale neighborhood? Can you wear designer clothes? Can

you hire servants?” As he said this, Jarron’s voice suddenly choked, and he turned to look out the

window.

The house they were currently living in belonged to Tom. It was a standalone three–story villa with a

small garden.

The living room on the ground floor had an extremely high ceiling, leading up to the second floor, with a

massive casement window.

The window had been meticulously cleaned by the servants, offering a clear reflection.

Jarron pointed to the house and asked Gillian, “Do you know how much this villa costs? Forty million

dollars! How many years will it take for the both of us to afford such a house in Mala?

“I’ve had the best of everything since I was a child. I live in the family building behind the hospital not

because I can only live there, but because it’s close to the hospital. I have many options. There are

many properties in Layfield, Evervale, and even Capitol City. Regardless of where I go for business

trips, I always have at place to stay.”

Jarron listed his privileges one by one. “I grew up eating the finest food and wearing Bosman clothing. I

attended the best school in Layfield and received. top–notch educational resources. I had butlers and

servants to handle the trivial matters and I didn’t even need to be bothered.

“I enjoyed the company of high–society individuals during special occasions and holidays.

Occasionally, I would accompany Isaac to visit some of the most influential figures in domestic politics

and governance.

“Gillian, I used to stand at the top of a mountain and be the center of attention. Now, you want me to

return to Mala with you and be a small doctor. Gillian, do you think I’ll be satisfied?”

Jarron’s voice grew increasingly high, and his tone became intense and tremulous. By the end of his

words, his eyes were already red.

Looking at Jarron in this state, Gillian finally felt regret.

She covered her face with her hands as her body trembled violently. It felt like

there was a gaping hole in her heart, and the pain was immense.

She kept blaming herself, thinking that it was her fault.

If she hadn’t been so arrogant and hadn’t fought with Olivia over the Smith family, Jarron wouldn’t have

ended up like this.

Olivia was generous and wouldn’t have mistreated them.

Gillian couldn’t hold back her emotions any longer and began to sob.

She kept thinking, ‘I’m sorry. It’s all my fault.

She realized that there was no remedy for her regrets.

Therefore, they could only bear the consequences themselves.

After returning to her room upstairs, she packed her luggage and scheduled her flight for the next day.

Before leaving, she decided to do one last thing for Jarron.

This was the only thing she could do.

She was determined to meet Olivia.

All along, she was the one who took the initiative to fight with Olivia. In fact, the disagreement between

Jarron and Olivia was not that deep, and Jarron hadn’t truly hurt Olivia.

There was still room for reconciliation between them.

She planned to go and meet Olivia at night. She was going to bow down to her and beg her to treat

Jarron well.

She thought, ‘Didn’t Olivia want me to beg for mercy? Didn’t she want to see me defeated? Alright, I

would give all these to her.’

She was willing to set aside her pride and apologize for the sake of Jarron.

Gillian laughed self–deprecatingly, her eyes filled with sarcasm.

Gillian decided that it was fine for her to bow down to Olivia.

Taking out her phone, Gillian took a deep breath and called Blake.

Receiving Gillian’s call, Blake was very surprised. “Gillian? Why are you calling?” Gillian bit her lip and

spoke, “Ms. Blake, I want to meet Olivia.”

Blake’s tone was hesitant. “What’s wrong?”

Gillian’s expression was bleak. She looked up at the tall maple trees outside the window and said in a

low voice, “It’s time. Olivia and I need to put an end to this. We’ve been fighting for so many years,

harboring hatred for each other, contending, and entangling. It’s been going on for too long.

“Ms. Blake, I’m tired, I don’t want to continue.

“I can’t beat Olivia: I surrender.”

Although Blake had always been dissatisfied with Gillian, she was still the girl she had raised. Thinking

of Gillian’s former spiritedness compared to her current desclation and sorrow, Blake couldn’t help but

feel a pang of sadness.

She sniffled and said, “Alright, I’ll report to Miss Olivia.”

Gillian nodded. “Alright, I have a flight tomorrow afternoon, and time is running out. Let’s do it tonight. If

she’s not available, we can meet at the airport tomorrow morning.”

After ending the call, Blake hurriedly went to see Olivia.

Olivia was testing Andrew for some programming knowledge. Andrew learned very quickly and had

already known all the basics.

Blake quickly walked over and looked at Olivia with red eyes. “Miss Olivia…”

Olivia raised an eyebrow. “What’s the matter?”

Noticing Blake’s troubled expression, Olivia patted Andrew’s head and asked him to play nearby.

Blake sat down beside Olivia and said with a heavy tone, “Miss Olivia, Gillian wants to see you.”

The seemingly gentle and elegant Gillian, with a hidden core of pride and stubbornness, has finally

surrendered.

While Blake breathed a sigh of relief, there was a hint of indescribable disappointment deep down.

Olivia slightly raised an eyebrow. Her slender fingers were gripping a pencil, and her tone remained

calm. “Oh.”

Blake was puzzled by the response and asked herself, ‘What does ‘oh‘ mean?‘ Thinking that Olivia

might not have understood, she repeated, “Miss Olivia, Gillian has admitted defeat, and she is thinking

of meeting you.”

“Then let her think whatever she wants.” Olivia’s tone was indifferent. She did not take this matter to

heart at all.

Blake reacted a little and said in a surprised tone, “Don’t you want to meet her?” Olivia looked up in

confusion. “Why should I see her?”

This time, Blake was really stunned. “You’ve been in conflict for so long. Don’t you want to see her

repent?”

Olivia tilted her head and thought seriously for a while. Then, she shook her head. “I don’t want to.

Considering her as my opponent would be too much of a compliment. We haven’t really been in

conflict. It’s always been her causing trouble, and I just can’t be bothered with her.

“I never considered her as my opponent from the beginning.”

Blake was taken aback.

Olivia waved her hand. “Alright, go ahead. You don’t need to report Gillian‘ matters to me in the future.”

In the past, Olivia treated Gillian well because of Isaac and because Gillian treated her sincerely when

they were young.

But that was all in the past. So much had happened between them, and they would never go back to

the past.

Now, Gillian was just a stranger to Olivia.

Since that was the case, what was the point of meeting Gillian?

On the other end, Gillian waited for the entire night. She waited until noon the next day when Blake

called.

She hurriedly picked up the phone and asked, “Ms. Blake, why are you only calling now? It’s too late,

please ask Olivia to wait for me at the airport.”

Blake hesitated for a moment but finally said, “Okay.”

Gillian dragged her luggage and did not ask Jarron to send her. She took a taxi to the airport alone.

The moment she arrived at the airport, she called Blake. “Ms. Blake, I’m at the airport. Where are you?”

Blake responded, “Don’t worry, we’re almost there.”

Gillian nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll wait for you in the waiting room.”

She waited for more than four hours and even boarded the plane but did not see Olivia.

She sat in her seat and looked out through the small window of the plane. She finally realized that

Blake had been lying.

Olivia would never see her again.
