SWNOVELS Chapter 505
Chapter 505
The news regarding the upheaval of the Sprout family was no longer a secret. Soon, it was spread to the other three families.
Lucy felt so sad after she found out about this matter.
Standing in the room, she suddenly felt that the world was so big yet there was no place for their love.
Why was it so difficult for the two of them to be together!
Was true love destined to go through trials and tribulations?
Lucy was really in pain. For the sake of her family and reputation, she had no choice but to suppress her emotions. After rejecting Jason’s confession of love several times, she was left with no choice but to get engaged to someone else.
She was already in such a difficult situation. But, it seemed that it was not over yet.
Could it be that the heavens could not bear to see true lovers living happily ever after?
Lucy was smart. After Jason was stripped of the financial power by the Sprout family, she realized that it was due to the Voodoo Worm Competition.
It was because Jason suspected that the Saintess harmed the voodoo worm. So, he argued with Daniel over this matter and provoked Daniel.
The cause of this matter was the Saintess. So, let the Saintess resolve it then
For Jason’s sake, Lucy was willing to beg upon the Saintess and endure the humiliation.
When Lucy came to think about it, she lifted her head with stubbornness and determination showing on her face.
Knowing that the Saintess was not in the Maple Villa at this time. Lucy went straight to Saintess’s residence. In the end, she bumped into the Saintess along the way.
When Lucy saw Olivia, she burst into anger instantly. However, when she came to think about jason, she suppressed her anger and said helplessly, “Saintess, I am here to apologize to you.”
Lucy took a deep breath while suppressing the humiliation she felt in her mind. Previously, during the Voodoo Worm Competition, it was all my fault. I am sorry that I have ruined your reputation. I will not ask you to forgive me and let me off. I just hope that you won’t take it to heart and don’t hurt Jason Is that okay?”
Olivia did not know what happened to Jason yet. Hence, she asked curiously, “What? Hurt Jason?”
When did she hurt Jason?
She was a young lady who was born royal and raised in a proper way. How could it be possible for her to hurt someone casually!
“You don’t have to pretend that you don’t know anything about it. I know that you are the one who did it,” Lucy drew her lips together as she suppressed her tone. “I know you hate me. I will take all the blame. I am begging you to let Jason off.
“He is the youngest son of the Sprout family’s First Elder. He had a few elder brothers too who were already adults. He is about the same age as me. it had not been easy for him to achieve what he has now!
“He has no intention of hurting or upsetting anyone. All the grudges between us are merely misunderstandings. Back then, Jason hurt you accidentally because he did not want to expose our relationship. Everything he did was for me!”
Suddenly, Lucy felt so aggrieved as slie spoke.
She took a deep breath and continued to say, “Do you know how hard it was for us to be together? He is the ninth uncle of the Sprout family, and I am the little niece of the Lopez family. I was burdened with the hope of the Lopez family ever since
Chapter 505
I was a child.
Lucy put on a wry smile as she spoke, “Perhaps, in your eyes, I am someone who possesses amazing talent and beauty in the Lopez family, I am the hope and pursuit of the younger generations. But, do you know how much pressure I am suffering and enduring?
“I have to wake up before dawn to read, leam calligraphy, practice martial arts, and study voodoo. In order to cultivate a tacit understanding with the voodoo worms, I have to let them bite me and suck my blood. In fact, it is a bloody reality behind all the glamour.
“You only get to see my talent. But, none of you know how much effort I have put in behind the scenes. None of you how much pressure I am suffering from”
Lucy could not continue to speak further.
know
She had sacrificed too much for the Lopez family. Her time, her energy, and even her precious love were just to make her grandfather feel satisfied and her family feel proud of her.
However, she did not expect her relationship with Jason to be exposed despite the effort that she had put in.
When Lucy came to think about it, she could not help but hate Olivia
Lucy had already decided to get engaged with someone else and was no longer entangled with Jason anymore. Why did Saintess still want to expose her?
If not for the Saintess who blurted everything out, Lucy and Jason would not end up in such a sorry state today.
Lucy: sniffed as she said. “Saintess, you are different from us. You are used to being free in the past and could even do anything you like without pressure. After you grew up, you became the Saintess and were doted on by the Flores family. You will never understand the mission and responsibility that geniuses like me and Jason have to bear.
“But, I don’t blame you for that. I just hope that you can put yourself in our shoes and understand what we have gone through. Let Jason off. You may come to me if you have any grudges!”
Olivia admitted that she was a tough and patient person. However, after she heard what Lucy said, she almost vomited.
What? Someone who possessed amazing talent and beauty!
Geniuses like Lucy and Jason?
What the hell!
She felt so nauseous right now!
Since when did the standards of a genius become so low?
Was this fellow sent by heaven to disgust Olivia? She never felt morning sickness even though she was pregnant. However, she did feel disgusted after hearing what Lucy said.
Olivia looked a Lucy indifferently, “You said that something had happened to Jason? Is that the reason why you came to beg upon me?
Lucy nodded aggrievedly.
“What happened? Tell me so that I can laugh out loud
Lury was so speechless.
“You are not going to tell me about it? Olivia raised her eyebrows and turned to Charlee as she said, “Call and ask about it.”
Charlee was very efficient nowadays. In less than two minutes, she had already found out what happened to Jason and
Chapter 505
conveyed the news to Olivia.
Jason is going to lose the Sprout family soon. Tsk, tsk tsk. How pitiful!” said Olivia as she looked at Lucy. “Do you want me to help him?”
Lucy’s eyes lit up instantly, “Are you willing to help him?”
Olivia nodded and said. “It is not impossible. But, you will have to suffer on his behalf. How about this? Let the Lopez family withdraw from Daniel’s project and lose the eligibility to compete. Then, I shall let Jason off.”
“You!” Lucy gritted her teeth and looked at Olivia angrily as she said, “Do not push your luck!”
Olivia sneered as she said, “Why? You are not willing to do so? Don’t you love Jason deeply? Don’t you want to help him! You are not even willing to pay such a small price. Hmph! Your true love is so cheap!”
Lucy was about to go crazy out of anger. Her body swayed as she said. “Do I really need to do this? Are you forcing me now?”
“What else do you think then?” Olivia retorted. “You are being generous now, aren’t you? You want me to let Jason off, yet you have no intention to pay the price. Are you dreaming?”
Olivia had always been a calm and self–possessed person
However, she was really disgusted by such an adulterous couple.
If they were to show off their melodramatic true love, they could continue on one side and not show off in front of Olivia. It was such an eyesore for her.
Somehow, their true love implicated Herman’s life.
Back then, Olivia overheard their conversation. However, Olivia simply ignored them as there was no concrete evidence. Furthermore, the legal system of the Wayne Country was different from the Hushe Republic. Other matters needed to be handled by Olivia at that time too. Therefore, she did not pursue further about it
Could it be that this adulterous couple pretended that nothing had happened since Olivia did not talk about it further!
Olivia could not be bothered anymore. She then said directly. “I am giving you two options. First, Jason will lose his power in the Sprout family. Second, the Lopez family will lose the eligibility to compete in Daniel’s project.
“I would like to see how deep is your love for him.
“Now, choose!”
