Chapter 250
Olivia seemed to be a man of her word.
After saying that she didn’t want the shop, she never interfered in the sandwich business ever again.
She didn’t even settle the accounts.
It was as if she really had no interest in money.
Megan was stunned. She was speechless for a long time.
Doris sat opposite her and pinched her fingertips. She looked at Olivia seriously and said in a surprised
tone, “You really don’t want it anymore?”
Olivia nodded. “I don’t want the money in the account, but I’ll have to charge for the recipes. The three
recipes I taught Stella are free. I’ll charge two thousand dollars for each recipe for the remaining seven
recipes.”
“So expensive!” Megan exclaimed. “You might as well rob someone!”
Julian pulled a long face and looked at Olivia with dissatisfaction.
Doris sneered.
She had thought that she was really a noble and pure person who didn’t want anything. So she was
scheming here?
She looked over and sized up Olivia for a while. She had an accurate guess in her heart.
Such an unscrupulous scheme, yet she still chose to retreat in order to advance. She must be
someone’s mistress.
A person could lose their memory, but their temperament would never change.
As the saying went, mountains and rivers were easy to change, but nature was hard to change.
That was the logic.
Even though Olivia usually looked hardworking and down–to–earth, she instantly revealed her true
nature at the critical moment.
Doris immediately didn’t want to interact with Olivia anymore.
She was afraid that she would be tainted by the cunning aura of a peddler.
This would affect her pure talent in painting.
Megan was very dissatisfied with the fact that Olivia wanted money for the recipes. She muttered, “How
can you ask for money? It’s just a few recipes. Besides, your father and I have raised you for so many
years, but we didn’t ask for money.”
Julian knocked on his cigarette and said, “You can ask for money for the recipes, but you have to return
the child support we gave you for more than 20 years.”
“Alright,” Olivia agreed immediately. “It’s only right for me to return my parents‘ child support. However,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI don’t have any money on hand now. I can’t get so much money in a short period of time. The few
recipes are the only valuable thing I have. How about this? I’ll sell them publicly.
“Now that sandwich business is so popular, I’m sure many people are willing to buy it. I won’t sell too
much. I’ll charge four thousand dollars for each recipe. Once I get the money, I’ll give it to you.”
“How can you do that?” Megan was dumbfounded. “This is our family’s recipe. If you sell it, others will
also sell sandwiches. What should we do?”
Julian was also mute.
He only wanted to put pressure on Olivia and ask her to give them the recipe for free. He did not expect
her to sell it.
His face immediately darkened.

“Mom.” Olivia was reasonable. “As parents, you have to be reasonable. You said that sandwich shop
will be
left to Doris, and I agreed. You said that you want me to pay for the child support, and I agreed. What
else do you want from me?”
Megan was at a loss for words.
It was still Doris who spoke.
“Olivia, you can’t be scheming toward your relatives. You’re Mom’s child. Everything you have should
belong to Mom, let alone a few recipes. How can you ask for money?”
Doris spoke righteously with disdain.
She despised Olivia’s scheme.
Olivia leaned back in her chair and tapped her fingertips on the back of the chair. “Of course I’ll be filial
to my parents. If this shop belongs to my parents, I’ll definitely give it to them. But the problem now is
that this shop is yours.
“Even if we’re biological sisters, there’s no reason for you to take advantage of me like this. Doris,
you’re still a university student.”
Doris was instantly speechless.
She frowned and thought for a long time, but she could not think of anything to refute Olivia.
At this moment, Julian slammed his palm on the table and said angrily, “Alright, we’re all family. How
can. you be so squabbly? Let’s not talk about today first. All of you go and rest. We’ll talk tomorrow.”
He chased them all away.
Julian quickly gestured for Megan to speak to Gillian.
The two of them were on the phone, so Gillian heard the situation clearly.
She had a headache.
The Taylor family’s situation was different from the Smith family’s. Whatever the Taylor family had was
all from Olivia.
However, the Smith family belonged to her grandfather.
Therefore, she and Jarron were qualified to have a share.
Derek and Doris from the Taylor family were not qualified to get Olivia’s sandwich shop.
The two situations cannot be analogous.
“How about this?” Gillian said. “Let’s forget about this matter first and not mention it again. In a few
days, you said that you have a high–ranking official in your family who can take care of your children.
Then, you can bring Derek and Doris over, but not Olivia. I’ll give you the specifics in advance.”
There was always a knot in Gillian’s heart because of things similar to this.
Ever since she was young, every time her grandfather hosted a big shot from Capital City, he would
only bring Olivia over. He only brought Olivia to visit Mr. Swift who was in the convalescence home.
Mr. Swift was such an extraordinary person.
That was a figure that could only be seen on television. He was the top leader of the country.
Why did he only bring Olivia to meet such a big shot?
Gillian felt that it was unfair.
Therefore, she wanted Olivia to feel it too.
A few days later, Megan said that she wanted to bring Doris to visit her relative.
That relative was a high–ranking official in the province and had power and influence.
She wanted him to take care Doris.
“Yes.” Olivia’s expression did not change as she skillfully made the sandwiches.
Megan was surprised. She looked over and deliberately said, “I won’t bring you along this time. You
can

stay at home and look after the shop. I’ll bring your brother and Doris over.”
Olivia nodded. “Got it.”
Megan could not understand what Olivia was thinking. She stared at her for a long time and realized
that she was not angry or jealous at all. Her expression was calm.
How could this be?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm
Megan didn’t understand.
However, she did not need to figure it out. She just needed to follow Gillian’s instructions.
In the afternoon, the Taylor family’s shop was empty, leaving only Olivia.
Everyone else had gone to the province.
Today’s sandwiches were sold out early.
Olivia had nothing to do, so she sat on the chair and read.
After reading two pages, Gillian arrived.
“Gillian, come in quickly,” Olivia called out.
Gillian looked around and realized that there was only Olivia. She pretended to be curious. “Why are
you the only one here? Where’s Mr. Taylor and the others?”
Olivia took a bottle of water and handed it to Gillian. “They brought Doris to the province.”
“Province?”
“Yes, yes.” Olivia nodded. “They went to the province to see my uncle. I have an uncle who is an official
in the province. My mother said she’s bringing Doris around and she wants my uncle to guide Doris in
the future.”
Gillian frowned. “Then why didn’t she bring you along?”
Olivia didn’t care at all. “That’s nothing.”
“Why aren’t you angry at all?” Gillian was disappointed. “This is such a good opportunity. He’ll be a
connection in the future. How can they leave you behind? This is too much!”
Olivia could not help but laugh. “Gillian, you’re so cute.”
Gillian frowned. “What do you mean?”
Olivia held the glass of water and took a sip before saying, “Who said that someone you meet once will
be a connection? Gillian, aren’t you thinking too simply about connections?
“I don’t study much and don’t know much, but I know that the essence of connections is the exchange
of resources. You have to have the ability to be able to build connections. Otherwise, it’s useless.”
Gillian shook her head. “Just because you can’t use it now doesn’t mean you won’t be able to use it in
the future.”
Olivia raised her eyebrows and suddenly smiled. “Ms. Gillian, if you don’t have any strength in your
connections, it’s like a pavilion in the air. You’ll only consume yourself and won’t bring any actual
benefits.”
How could it be consumption?
Gillian didn’t believe it.
“Olivia, let me tell you a story.”
