Revenge On My First Love novel Chapter 372

Chapter 372 Drake Is Striking Back

"Do you think Olivia doesn't have a plan B? She can threaten you with what I did to Roman, or she just seizes a chance to do harm to my mom. Each situation is bad for us. Do you understand?"

Baron was confused, "So what should we do? Do I have to accept her infidelity?"

Drake smiled when Baron said so.

But Baron felt more and more difficult to see through his son. What was going on in his head?

"Look. Now that Olivia could attract much sympathy by playing the victim, we can also do the same!"

Then, the Riley family convened a press briefing.

In front of journalists, Baron spoke in a sad way, "I know you have watched the video posted on the Internet before. I feel greatly regretful because the content is too obscene for you. But, to be honest, I feel even more sorrowful because the protagonist is my wife."

"I confess, these years, I was not that good to her and even neglected her. However, all of you should know I wouldn't have been apart from my ex-wife but for Olivia's intrigue. I have been feeling angry about this and even blaming her for it."

"But... I never have slept with other women during our marriage, even though when I was abroad. I know and understand that this was her revenge on me."

"Olivia, I can feel your pain and grievance. I won't divorce you. I'll forgive you if you can return to our home and our lives."

Such words made public opinion on the Internet polarize. Some of them thought Baron should get divorced because it was immoral of Olivia to cheat on him, even though Baron did something wrong before.

While others thought Baron was a good man who still took responsibility for his wife.

And the stock price of the Riley Group, which used to show a decline, surged again.

Baron had to admit that Drake was marvellous, while Drake just looked at him like looking at a fool.

At the same time, Olivia was livid as she watched the video of the brief pressing and read the comments. She preferred that Baron insisted on divorcing her. Then she could have the reason to accuse him. But why did he show up and make such a speech?

At present, Baron had won over public opinion and seized this chance to make her a dissolute woman.

Damn it! Damn it!

From the perspective of Drake, he thought the current situation was very favorable to them.

Olivia's only way out was to make use of Daniel.

Olivia would definitely try her best to get something from him and fought back.

However, Drake would not give her the chance. He would send Daniel away before Olivia realized it.

As for the place where Daniel would go, he would never let Olivia know.

Drake returned to Emma's house with a smile, "Well done! We finally find a chance to take Olivia down."

Before, they couldn't get anything on her. After all, Olivia was a discreet person.

But this time was totally different. If she had not wanted to scheme against Emma, they would not have seized the opportunity.

Sophia said, beaming, "Ms. Glass takes credit for this!"

Emma smiled, "Sophia, you're too humble. I just made a suggestion then. And you did most of the work! I owe it all to you!"

"Emma, it's yours!"

"No! It's yours!"

Drake felt speechless about their "compliments" on each other. He could only say, "Well. Stop it. Both of you take the credits."

Both of them played an important role in this plan. If they didn't cooperate well in even one phase, they could not make it so easily.

And this time, Olivia would never stand a chance to fight back.

But it hadn't been finished yet, had it? Olivia would try to find a way.

However, the key point was what on earth she would do.

The video on the Internet which had a negative effect on Olivia's reputation had been deleted.

As a member of the Riley family, Olivia, of course, would never await her doom.

But she couldn't show up during this period.

Emma decided to pay the Old Riley a visit. After all, it had been a long time since they said anything nice to each other.

Sophia and Aria also went with her.

When the Old Riley saw them three, he felt surprised and then said, "Emma. Sophia. Aria. Why are you here?"

Emma handed the gift in her hand to him and said, "Mr. Riley, I'm here to visit you!"

Visit him?

The Old Riley felt a bit more comfortable knowing the purpose of Emma's coming.

And Sophia and Aria gave him the gifts they prepared.

The Old Riley said, "Sophia, you..."

Sophia explained, "I've not forgiven you yet. I just come with Ms. Glass and Aria."

The Old Riley could only sigh. It made sense. After all, he had done many bad things to her.

And he had been contented that she could get back together with Drake.

"Sophia, I'm sorry. I know you don't like it, but I gotta apologize to you!"

Sophia smiled, "Mr. Riley. Let bygones be bygones. You don't have to say sorry to me."

Words stuck in the Old Riley's throat.

Well, just let it be!

Then he looked at Emma and said, "Emma, it must have been a tough time for you!"

"It's... not a big deal. The most difficult part for me is that I couldn't see Drake and Aria. But fortunately, Drake kept contacting me these years. As for Aria... She didn't accept me at the very beginning, but now she does."

"Besides, the Lawson family took good care of me, and my life is not bad."

The Old Riley turned to Sophia and said, "Sophia, I want to say 'thank you' anyhow, even though you don't like it."

"Ms. Glass did a lot for my family. She cultivates my abilities. It shows her importance." Sophia retorted upon the Old Riley again.

"Mr. Riley, the reason why I come to see you today is not because of Baron. Instead, it's for Drake and Aria. Whatever, I know you treated them well when I was not with them. I'm really grateful for that."

"Emma, don't say that. That's what I should do. They are my grandchildren. And I should feel shameful for what Baron has done... I'm really sorry about this!"

"Let bygones be bygones, as Sophia said."

But obviously, it was impossible to totally forget what happened before.

After a long while, the Old Riley asked expectantly, "Emma, would you get back to Baron after he deals with the business between him and Olivia?"
