Chapter 254 Do You Still Have Any Value Worth Deceiving?
Hayden was very confident about this, because although the Smith family had publicly cut ties with Olivia, they transferred a large sum of money into her account every year.
In fact, this card was what Olivia had brought with her when she left the Smith family.
As the Smith family's precious daughter, how could Olivia not have her own savings?
Twenty years ago, Hayden was a poor man with a terrible family background. His only advantage was probably his decent-looking face.
The reason he had money to start the Brown Group was because of the money Olivia brought from the Smith family.
At first, there was only thirty million dollars in the account.
Later, he discovered that every year an account would transfer money into it, at least thirty million dollars.
For over twenty years, it never stopped.
The reason Hayden transferred assets was because Olivia was the largest shareholder of the Brown Group.
Although Olivia had a weak personality, she was very strong-willed about certain things, like he absolutely couldn't have a mistress on the side.
If she found out about Seraphine's existence, she would definitely take the company back, and in the end he would have nothing.
So he had to prepare in advance.
He had already transferred that money elsewhere, and it was impossible for anyone to track it down in such a short time.
He had been very careful and was confident no one could find it so easily.
He was incredibly glad he had done that - wasn't it coming in handy now? Once this whole thing blew over, he would withdraw the money and make a comeback.
Olivia looked worried, pain flashing in her eyes. "No, Tyrell won't even talk to me, and Xander has blocked my number."
"Then call Maddox. You're his biological daughter - I don't believe he'd just watch you suffer."
"It's no use. I know my dad's temper best. From the moment I left the Smith family, he stopped seeing me as his daughter."
"Then at least go borrow some money! I really don't know what good it did marrying you!" Hayden cursed irritably.
Olivia's eyes widened in disbelief. "What did you say? Hayden, do you know what you're saying? I cut ties with my family for you - don't you have any conscience?"
As Olivia spoke, she kept pounding her fists on Hayden.
Hayden grew more impatient with her actions. He sneered, grabbed her wrist, and threw it aside forcefully. "Then why do you think I chose you in the first place? Wasn't it because of your Smith family?"
Olivia's mind went "boom," as if something shattered.
Olivia stared blankly at Hayden, finding him completely unfamiliar at this moment - his eyes bloodshot, glaring with rage, his face twisted.
Hayden's eyes held only cruelty and mockery.
It took her a long time to find her voice. She mumbled, "What... what are you talking about?"
Hayden angrily kicked the coffee table. The heavy table scraped across the smooth floor, making a harsh sound.
Olivia's heart clenched painfully.
Then she heard Hayden say, "Olivia, how long are you going to keep fooling yourself? I'm saying I approached you from the start because you were the Smith family's daughter. And what did you do? You were stupid enough to cut ties with the Smith family."
"Do you know how valuable the title of Smith family son-in-law is? Does Maddox think transferring tens of millions of dollars into your account every year makes up for my loss? If I were the Smith family's son-in-law, I'd definitely be worth over ten billion dollars by now!"
His accusations were filled with resentment and unwillingness, a side of him Olivia had never seen.
"No, that's not true! Hayden, you're lying to me, right?"
Hayden sneered. "Lying to you? Do you still have any value worth me spending effort to deceive?"
She never dreamed that giving up everything for him, giving up her family, was seen as stupidity in his eyes.
And what was this about tens of millions of dollars?
The Smith family had been sending her money all these years?
Her eyes suddenly grew moist, tears flowing uncontrollably.
Olivia clutched her chest. It hurt so much, like it had been cut with a knife, blood flowing out unstoppably.
The cruel reality was torn open, rushing toward her like a flood. She didn't even have a chance to catch her breath.
Maddox, Xander, Tyrell...
She was wrong.
She was really wrong.
Over twenty years...
So Hayden married her not because he loved her, but because of the tens of millions of dollars transferred into her account every year.
A shadow suddenly fell over her.
Then a rough hand grabbed her chin, forcing her to look up.
Hayden looked down at her commandingly. "I've booked you a flight to Harmony City tomorrow. I'm sure if you're willing to apologize, Maddox will forgive you."
"Hayden, you bastard! I gave birth to four children for you! Are you sure you want to treat me like this?"
Olivia's eyes were bloodshot, her hands clenched into tight fists, nails digging into her flesh without feeling any pain.
Hayden chuckled. "As long as you don't say anything, how will they know? From now on, as long as you behave, we'll still be a loving couple. Oh, about the money you asked about - I can tell you now."
Olivia's heart rose, then she heard him say, "The asset transfer is real. Do you know when I started?"
Olivia struggled desperately, trying to resist, but the strength difference between men and women was too great. She was firmly held down by Hayden, unable to move.
"Hahaha..." Hayden laughed wildly, leaning close to her ear and whispering, "From the day I married you."
Another thunderbolt struck Olivia's heart. She clenched her teeth, her eyes angry yet desolate.
Hayden let her go, pulling out a tissue to wipe his hands in disgust, as if she were something dirty.
Who knew how long he had been waiting for this moment.
From the moment he learned Olivia was going to cut ties with the Smith family, he wanted to leave her.
Unfortunately, he feared the Smith family's revenge and could only keep enduring.
Later, Olivia suddenly told him she was pregnant, constantly using the baby to pressure him into marriage.
At that time, he was sick of Olivia and wanted nothing more than to tell her the truth immediately.
However, just as he was about to break up, Olivia suddenly took out that bank card and gave it to him without any reservation.
Olivia was so foolish, completely unguarded around him.
But the more Olivia was like this, the easier she was to control, wasn't it?
The Smith family only had one daughter - they couldn't really abandon her. As long as Olivia stayed with him, the Smith family couldn't do anything to him.
In a flash, over twenty years had passed.
The moment he spoke the truth, Hayden felt incredibly relieved.
He had held it in for over twenty years, forcing himself to marry a woman he didn't like, enduring his disgust to sleep with her and have children.
Now, he was finally free.
