When she was trying her best to think of an excuse to reject him, a black car, which was apparently
expensive, stopped in front of them.
The window was winded down and a good-looking face appeared. The driver said, “Hi, Liam.”
The comer was one of Liam’s good friends, Edison.
Rita had little memory about him.
In the last incarnation, she met him twice when joining some parties with Liam. She remembered that
Edison was a gentleman, neither lively as Jacob nor cold as Liam.
“Sorry, I am late. I must deal with some businesses in the C City first.” When she was absent-minded,
Edison got off the car, standing in front of them, “I am so sorry for you grandpa.”
Liam nodded simply and opened the door of his car. Looking at the fragile girl, he ordered, “You should
stay in the car.”
“Well.” She was not interested in joining their conversation.
She was no longer the girl who made all the efforts to meet his friends.
This time, she didn’t care anything about him.
She smiled to Edison politely and walked to Liam’s car nearby.
After Grandpa Jim passed away, she hadn’t slept for two days.
Leaning in the warm car, she was nearly asleep.
She closed her beautiful eyes while waiting for Liam but her phone rang.
“Hello?” Rita answered sleepily and asked gently, “Who is it?”
“Rita? Why did you answer my brother’s phone? Where’s Liam? Is he by your side?”
Hearing Jacob’s voice, Rita realized that she picked up Liam’s phone unconsciously.
“I have to talk with him immediately. Give him the phone. Be quick.”
Before she said something, Jacob urged her anxiously.
Jacob called in such a hurry that she wanted to ask what happened instinctively but then she hesitated
because she thought it would be officious.
Although Jacob was a bit biased against her, he was still a man who was rational on issues, so she
was aware that something important must happen in need of Liam’s help.
Therefore, she got off the car to inform Liam.
When she was near Edison’s car, she heard Edison’s voice, “Liam, Joey is from the Nash family. I think
you should treat her well since for you, she…”
He paused with mixed feelings.
And then he continued, “You shouldn’t ruin the Nash family.”
“…” Liam looked away with eyes full of indifference and coldness.
“Liam, there must be other ways for you to compensate Rita. It’s too cruel to bankrupt the whole
family…”
Liam took a glimpse of the phone in his hand, and said coldly, “Tell the Nash family. Don’t hurt her.”
Then he left the car.
And the next second, he bumped into Rita, “Rita?”
“Jacob is calling you.” Rita smiled. Her face was emotionless as if she didn’t hear their conversation.
She gave the phone to Liam and was about to leave.
At this moment, Liam held on her tightly to his arms and she was forced to stop.
“Did you hear what we talked about just now?”
He asked in a low tone, which made Rita frowned subtly, but she hid her change and acted as usual in
just a second.
Although her facial expression was subtle, he captured it.
He knew that she must hear it.
“Why didn’t you ask me anything?” Worriedly, he looked at her who was peaceful now.
She pushed him away, smiling plainly, “Why should I ask?” Did his choice matter to her?
Her plan of revenge did not need other’s help.
What the Nash family had done to her in the two incarnations was clearly recorded and she would fight
back step by step.
“…” They looked at each other silently, and the alienation in her eyes hurt his feeling.
“Please continue your conversation. I will ask the driver to send me back to the campus.” Rita struggled
away from his arms and left coldly.
“Liam, why didn’t you tell her the reason why you let the Nash family go?”
Edison glanced at the video on Liam’s phone, speechlessly. After a long while, he sighed, “Go! Just
explain everything to her. I don’t hope that you two have more misunderstandings.”
“Explanation is useless.”
“Your explanation might please her and your relationship can be mended.”
Hearing his words, Edison was quite puzzled.
Looking at the girl’s back, Liam threw the phone back to Edison. “She does not care about the reason
why I let go the Nash family.”
So the explanation was totally useless.
The next day after the funeral, both Amelia and Noah woke up from the coma.
It’s not the time for the family to be optimistic because Noah had blood stasis in the brain and Amelia
acted like a dumb, not remembering anyone.
“What’s wrong with them?” Rita was confused, looking at Amelia who was gawking at her.
After the physical examination, the doctor answered, “Mrs. Miller lost all her memory because her brain
was attacked in the car accident.”
“Is it possible for her to recover?”
“It’s hard to say. Maybe she will become normal in a few days or she might stay like this for the rest of
her life.”
“The rest of her life? What about the company?” At this moment, the door was opened suddenly, and
several shareholders came in with anger.
Following them were Mason and Charlotte.
Charlotte held Amelia’s hand, crying sadly, “My dear grandma, I’ve prayed for so many days for your
recovery.. But you are not…well. How should the Brown Group develop?”
“That’s right. The whole company needs a new authority.”
“Yes. Recently, both the corporate performance and the price of shares have declined. If this situation
continues, the company will cost us highly.”
The shareholders were agitated by Charlotte’s speech.
“So I think, we need to elect a vice president right now.” One of them suggested.
Hearing this, other shareholders looked at each other and considered the suggestion as a good
solution.
“Do you have any candidate you prefer?” Charlotte said immediately, “Now my sister, my dad and I are
here. It’s a good chance today to elect.”
“I agree.”
“Ok.”
All of them agreed with Charlotte.
Only Rita who stood beside Amelia remained silent, looking around and fixing her eyes on Charlotte
who was satisfied.
Rita despised her with coldness.
Charlotte made so many efforts to call the shareholders here in order to elect her or her father as the
new authority.
What an idiot!
Today Rita decided to fight back to disappoint her.
Besides, she would force her to sign the document of share exchange and make her feel that she was
discarded by the whole family.
In the last incarnation, what Charlotte had done to her deserved her punishment.
Thinking of it, Rita faked a smile, “She’s right. Since we are all here, the vice president should be
elected now so you can less worry about the company.”
Mason was surprised. He remembered that she rejected determinedly always.
Charlotte was amazed as well. Why did she agree so quickly?
But Charlotte was pleased again, looking at the shareholders who were anxious and nervous.
She thought that Rita would lose definitely this time.
