Trapped with a Doctor novel Chapter 361

Si Family

When Olivia came to the study, Daniel and Janet had been waiting for her.

"You must be tired, Olivia, " said Janet as she stood up from her chair.

Olivia shook her head and said, "No, I'm fine. Thank you."

Janet held her hand, sighed and said softly, "We hope that Jeremy's friends would get to know you, so that they would believe you've been openly married to the Si family. Although Jeremy and his friends now think you've offended them, but don't you worry about it. We will stand behind you."

Janet had heard of what happened tonight from the guards.

That fact was that everything Olivia did was according to the plan Daniel and Janet. Otherwise, she would not have had offended Jeremy in front of his friends. .

Olivia looked straight into Janet's eyes and said innocently, "Auntie, actually, I always want to ask..."

"Yes, what is it?" Janet said, and brought her to the sofa.

"The thing is, I think Jeremy is not someone who is... incurable. I believe that you know how to get him back on the right path, but why do you let him go on like this for so many years in the first place... and why do you choose me?" She wondered why they wanted her to marry Jeremy.

Jeremy was a famous upper-class playboy who was worshipped like a God by everyone because of his extremely wealthy family.

But any discerning person could see his good sense of priority, because he always avoided unaffordable vices.

Janet said with a sad expression, "It's my fault. Jeremy had always loved to run counter to his father ever since he was a child. His father preferred the girls, so I had to give him more love as compensation. But, by the time I realized I had spoiled him too much, it was too late... Every time his father wanted to punish him, I would stop him...

Yes, his father is more than capable to deal with him in many other ways, but we are not going to be around to fix his problems forever. Therefore, we thought it would be best to find him someone who would be a lifelong companion to him and could restrain him from being petulant." So they found Olivia, the secretary to the general manager of SL Group.

She was young, pretty and self-effacing.

She was hardworking, strong-willed, and a visionary who always kept a low-profile.

Although she did not have a wealthy family background, and, like Daniel, showed a lack of feeling, as a young woman, she appeared to be meeker and milder than Daniel.

Her family origins and such were the least of Daniel and Janet's concerns.

Their only concern was whether the girl was kind, sensible, and nice to Jeremy.

Janet believed that Olivia passed all those requirements with flying colors.

"Well, then... again, why me?" Olivia had never imagined that she would one day be married into an extremely wealthy and influential family like this.

Although she was not one to be so easily perturbed, Olivia felt a bit shocked when Janet came to her.

Janet smiled and patted Olivia on the hands, and said, "Things are not as complicated as you may have thought them to be Olivia. I chose you, because I like you. I appreciate you very much. Don't let me down. As for your mother, my husband has given her what she wanted, so you don't need to worry about that anymore. So, from now on, I want you to live here just as one of us."

Olivia was a bit surprised. She tried to think of what her mother could have possibly asked for. After getting divorced from Olivia's father, her mother hadn't been married again for many years because she was waiting for a man.

But that man, even when divorced as well, showed no signs of marring her.

It was obvious that he didn't love her at all. But even then, for so many years, she never changed her mind about staying with him. And she asked for nothing.
