Chapter 78 Let Her Taste the Same Lesson
"Olivia, what the hell are you doing?"
Amelia hadn't expected Olivia to act so suddenly. She was caught off guard and immediately started yelling as she was pulled in.
Olivia threw her to the ground.
The impact was hard, and the pain left Amelia momentarily unable to resist.
Just as Olivia had anticipated, she didn't respond to Amelia. Instead, she snatched the tape from Cleo's hands and, with fury, wrapped it around Amelia's mouth several times.
Amelia was shocked and tried to scream, but it was too late.
Her mouth was completely sealed.
Not only that, Olivia then bound her limbs tightly, almost to the point of cutting off circulation.
She wanted Amelia to feel the same pain of having tape ripped from her skin!
Evelyn watched coldly from the side, thoroughly enjoying the scene.
Dealing with such a wicked person, they had to give them a taste of their own medicine!
"Olivia, what are you doing? Open the door right now!" Michael was banging on the door from the outside.
Olivia ignored him.
After tying up Amelia, she grabbed her by the hair, her eyes red with anger. "Amelia, I used to put up with your bullying because you're Michael's mother and an elder. But that doesn't mean I'm a pushover! Now that I don't care about Michael anymore, if you dare lay a hand on Bianca, I will make you pay!"
With that, she threw Amelia back to the ground.
Amelia's face contorted in pain.
Her chest felt like it was going to explode from anger. She never imagined that this wretch would dare treat her this way!
She was from the Johnson family, always held in high regard. Whenever she went out, people treated her with the utmost respect.
But today, in her own home, she was treated like this by Olivia!
Amelia's eyes were filled with rage as she glared at Olivia, looking like she wanted to tear her apart.
"Still not behaving?" Olivia snapped.
Evelyn had been holding Bianca's head against her shoulder, preventing her from seeing what Olivia was doing.
Seeing Amelia still trying to shout, Evelyn took out her phone and aimed the camera at her.
"What do you think will happen if I post this nasty, vicious expression of yours online, along with some juicy details about you abusing your own granddaughter, locking her in a warehouse, and mistreating your daughter-in-law? How do you think people will see you then?"
Amelia's eyes widened, her body froze, and she didn't dare move. Even her expression stiffened.
Evelyn looked down at her. "Why aren't you shouting now? Go on, keep going. I haven't taken enough pictures yet!"
Amelia was so angry she nearly fainted.
She valued her reputation.
Being treated like this by Olivia was already humiliating enough.
If this got online, how could she face anyone?
How would she ever show her face in public again?
Seeing Amelia finally quiet down, Evelyn sneered, "Coward!"
After spitting disdainfully, she turned to Olivia. "Olivia, what's next? Are we leaving, or what?"
Outside, Michael was still banging on the door.
Since Olivia hadn't opened it, he began instructing people to break it down.
Olivia gave Amelia a cold look.
The tape was very sticky, and she had wrapped it tightly enough to leave a lasting impression on Amelia.
Since the lesson had been taught, there was no need to stay any longer.
"Let's go!" She responded, then turned to pick up Bianca.
Before leaving, she warned Amelia, "If you ever try to mess with Bianca again, today will seem like a walk in the park!
And if you dare to pursue this matter, I will post those pictures online! Let everyone see the true face of the Johnson family's hostess !"
With that, she and Evelyn went to open the door.
Outside, the commotion had attracted the entire Johnson family. The noise was just too loud to ignore.
Naturally, this included Sophia and Aiden.
Sophia and Aiden had been standing in front of a memorial portrait for a long time, trying to create an image of being dutiful.
But their plan was interrupted by Olivia causing a scene at the Johnson Mansion.
Sophia was so angry she could have ground her teeth to dust. She had no choice but to get up, cursing Olivia in her heart, 'That wretch!'
She also shot a venomous look at Emily's portrait, cursing in her head, 'If she hadn't chosen Olivia, I wouldn't have to go through all this trouble. She deserved to die early!'
At this point, the entire Johnson family was gathered outside the warehouse, trying to break down the door.
But the door was of excellent quality.
Despite their efforts, they couldn't break it down.
Just as Michael was considering getting someone to dismantle the lock, the warehouse door opened on its own.
As soon as he saw her, Michael demanded angrily, "Olivia, what did you do in there?"
As he spoke, his gaze swept past her and into the warehouse.
When he saw Amelia bound and in a pathetic state on the ground, his face turned dark, and he shouted, "Olivia, are you crazy? How dare you treat my mother like this?"
The Johnsons were also furious.
"Olivia, you have no manners! How could you treat Amelia like this?"
"Are you out of your mind? How dare you act like this in the Johnson Mansion?"
"Someone call the cops! We need to teach her a lesson today..."
The crowd was indignant, shouting continuously.
"What's all the shouting about?"
Evelyn was even fiercer than the rest. "When this old woman had Cleo tie up Bianca with tape, where were you all then? Now you suddenly care about justice?
For such a big family, bullying a three-year-old child like this, I'm really seeing something new today.
The so-called number one wealthy family, behaving in such a lowly manner!
All Olivia did was give her a taste of her own medicine, and now you can't take it?
Fine, you want to call the cops? Go ahead, I'll do it myself, and let's get some reporters here to see what you're really like!"
With that, she took out her phone and started to make a call.
"Stop!" Michael grabbed her hand, his face looking very troubled.
He was trying to understand Evelyn's words while also glancing at Bianca.
Bianca indeed had several red marks on her body.
Especially on her cheeks, where it was most obvious!
The others also looked at Bianca with suspicion.
Seeing the red marks on her cheeks and her pitiful eyes, they were momentarily speechless.
Olivia didn't bother to waste words with them. Holding Bianca, she walked past everyone and left.
Evelyn and Lightning quickly followed.
It was only then that Amelia dared to make a sound from inside the warehouse.
Hayden rushed in to help Amelia up and started to remove the tape from her face.
As soon as he moved, Amelia let out a scream.
But Hayden didn't understand and thought she was just too angry. He continued to rip off the tape quickly.
The tape was not only stuck to her skin but also her hair.
The whole process was excruciating for Amelia.
By the time it was all removed, some of her hair had been ripped out, and her face was red and raw.
Some spots even had minor abrasions, causing a painful sting.
Amelia was nearly driven mad with anger. "That wretch Olivia dared to treat me like this. Michael, go get her back here right now!"
She was determined to teach that little wretch a lesson!
Michael's face was dark and stern. "Enough! Do you want to keep making a scene? Why did you mess with Bianca in the first place? She's so young! Did you not think tying her up with tape would hurt her? Haven't you caused enough trouble?"
Amelia was shaking with rage.
How could it be enough?
Olivia had humiliated her and taken pictures.
If she didn't get her back, she might be blackmailed forever!
However, Michael clearly had no intention of acting.
He was extremely frustrated, tugged at his tie, and coldly ordered, "The memorial service is over. Everyone, leave."
With that, he left the Johnson Mansion, leaving everyone behind.
He walked out quickly, seemingly intending to follow Olivia.
However, there was no sign of them at the gate.
Inside the Johnson Mansion, the people quickly dispersed.
In the end, only Hayden, Sophia, and Aiden were left.
Sophia was helping to remove the tape from Amelia's hands and feet, comforting her as she worked. "Olivia was way out of line. How could she treat you like this? You're Bianca's grandmother; you would never really hurt her. She must have done this on purpose to get back at you."
Amelia was so angry she lost all her usual grace, her face twisted with rage. "Don't mention that wretch to me."
Sophia, ever the picture of sweetness and obedience, replied, "Alright, I won't mention her. Don't be upset. Once the tape is off, we need to apply some ointment. I've already had some special ointment brought in from abroad. Once we apply it, the pain should ease."
Amelia's anger subsided a bit at Sophia's thoughtfulness. "You're the sensible one, Sophia!"
"Grandma, have some water. Don't get too upset. If you get sick, I will be heartbroken." Aiden, with impeccable timing, brought over a glass of water to comfort her.
Amelia's heart softened. Aiden was so well-behaved and lovable!
Unlike Olivia's child, Bianca, who had autism at such a young age and was so dull.
She didn't have any of the Johnson family qualities.
Aiden was the one who truly represented Michael's lineage!
After leaving the Johnson Mansion, Olivia took Bianca home.
On the way, she checked Bianca over again, making sure there were no serious injuries, and applied some soothing ointment to the red marks.
She had been worried that Bianca might be traumatized.
But Lightning kept nuzzling her, and Bianca's attention was soon diverted.
They played together in the back seat, and Bianca seemed unaffected.
Olivia breathed a sigh of relief.
It was only then that Evelyn asked about what had happened.
She had rushed over with Lightning after receiving a call, without knowing many details.
Olivia briefly explained the situation.
Evelyn was furious when she heard that Amelia had forced Olivia to leave the Wilson Group and demanded five billion dollars as a divorce settlement.
"How shameless can she be? Her son was the one who cheated, and she has the nerve to make such demands?"
Olivia's expression was cold.
There was no way she would give them any money!
Amelia had shamelessly used Bianca to threaten her, and Olivia would never let that slide!
Later, back at home, Olivia made sure to reward Lightning with a special treat.
After all, it had played a crucial role in finding Bianca.
After lunch, Olivia called the detective agency to check on the progress of gathering evidence.
