Chapter 137 His Gentleness
The more she thought about it, the more possible it seemed!
To confirm her suspicions, Olivia didn't stay any longer at the Hall Villa.
As soon as she left, she called Andrew.
The man's warm, magnetic voice came through like a refreshing spring, "Dr. Garcia."
Olivia's heart stirred, and she immediately said, "Mr. Hamilton, the matter is resolved. Just as I planned from the start, Sophia fell for the trap and finally showed her true colors, admitting to stealing the data. She's been taken away by the police now."
Andrew didn't seem surprised at all and laughed, "Is that so? Then congratulations on pulling off such a brilliant counterattack and exposing her true face."
Olivia said meaningfully, "Things went so smoothly mainly because the drug administration investigators cooperated throughout, and the Hall Family members helped out, intentionally or not... I'm thinking this was all your arrangement?"
Andrew on the other end paused for two seconds, then chuckled softly, "Just a small matter, no need to dwell on it."
So it really was him!
Olivia's heart was even more deeply moved.
All these years, she'd had to create and fight for everything herself with her own two hands.
Even when married to someone as high-ranking as Michael, she'd never enjoyed the benefits that status could bring.
But tonight, from just a simple conversation, Andrew had taken it to heart and didn't hesitate to use his connections to help her.
How could she not care about that?
"What should I do? I seem to owe you more and more favors. Today's matter can't just be brushed off with a casual dinner invitation."
'Mindstill Draught' had cost her so much effort. Having it stolen was like cutting flesh from her heart.
But now, Andrew had personally filled that wound back in.
Though this might truly be a small matter to him.
In her heart, it was like a large hand had smoothed over the wound, leaving only endless warmth.
Andrew seemed somewhat helpless, "Didn't I say there's no need to be so polite? What matters most is that the problem is solved. Besides, this matter was mainly resolved through your own efforts, everyone else was just secondary...
In any case, your research results are no longer being stolen, and that's a good thing."
Olivia couldn't help but say, "What about the Hall Family then? And what about that consultation fee?"
"The Hall Family slighted you, so compensating you is only right, isn't it? My favor wasn't meant for them to use carelessly. Since they disrespected you, they should pay a price."
Andrew said this matter-of-factly, then reassured her, "Take the consultation fee without worry. You saved Mr. Hall, you deserve it."
Olivia chuckled softly.
She didn't feel guilty about taking the Hall Family's money.
But her gratitude toward Andrew went far beyond that.
Verbal thanks were no longer enough to show her sincerity. It seemed the gift she'd promised would have to be carefully chosen!
She'd give it to him personally when she returned to Harmony City!
After making up her mind, Olivia didn't say any more polite words. She chatted with Andrew for a while longer before ending the call.
On her way back, she contacted Daniel instead to tell him about Sophia!
Daniel hadn't expected that before they'd even found the company mole, Olivia had gone straight for the big move and made Sophia crash and burn.
Daniel laughed right then and there, his laugh full of roguish charm, "Don't worry, since that woman has fallen, I won't be polite. I'll make sure she pays the most painful price!
And the Johnson Group too—I'll make them bleed!"
Olivia had always trusted Daniel's ability to scheme, so she said, "Then I'll just wait and watch Mr. Wilson work his magic!"
