Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 1286

Everyone gathered at the main hall before the birthday banquet began. As there were many guests this year, everyone asked about Olivia when they saw the graceful girl.

When they heard that she was freelancing, they praised her capability and asked her to continue to work hard.

Mavis was uncomfortable hearing this. Her heart twisted with jealousy.

Although Marilyn had three sons, they only managed to give her two granddaughters.

Mavis had always liked to compare with Olivia ever since they were children.

She would do whatever Olivia did. But there was one thing she would never be able to beat, and that was Olivia's beauty.

Olivia inherited her mother's beauty and her father's height and long legs. She not only had a pair of long legs and height that was the envy of every other girl, but also a face that girls were jealous of.

Olivia was the kind of person who looked beautiful without dressing up. Once she dressed up, she would be the center of attention. That was why Mavis had specially dressed up before coming for the banquet.

Over the past few years, Mavis brooded over her single- eyelids for a long time. In the end, she made up her mind to get a plastic surgeon to perform double eyelid surgery.

Mavis had also done lots of different facial treatments and surgery.

Mavis thought she was already beautiful and that Olivia wouldn't look as beautiful as she used to as she stayed at home all day. It was only then Mavis realized she was wrong.

Olivia was a natural beauty. Her skin was glowing and smooth even though she didn't take much care of it. It infuriated Mavis!!!

Mavis became angrier when she saw most of the guests were talking to Olivia.

Hence when someone asked if Olivia's monthly writing income was enough for her to survive on, Mavis couldn't sit back anymore. She didn't care if she was polite and said, "How in the world would her salary be enough for her to survive on? She didn't like to study much back in school. Why didn't you put any effort into finding a good job? Ollie, I'm your cousin, but I have to remind you. You're no longer a child. You'd have to marry and have children in the future. It's best if you find a proper job, save up and lessen your parent's burden."

Olivia was silent.

The annoying fly flew out again.

And as expected, the fly flew right at her.

Thinking of this, Olivia looked at Mavis and smiled faintly. "My parents? You are their junior. Don't you know how to address your elders?"

Mavis's expression changed. She didn't expect Olivia to make an issue with this topic again. She hurriedly said, "It was a slip of a tongue. Aunt Brenda and Uncle Karl worked hard all their life. You're their only child, yet not only do you not work and earn money, you even live off your parents. This is really not good."

"What do you think I should do then?"

Olivia was not angry. Instead, she had a faint smile on her face the entire time. She looked as if she was preparing to make a big move.

Mavis had a vague premonition, but after noticing the guests around them were paying attention and showing a little contempt for Olivia, she began to feel happy deep in her heart.

"There are so many people here. Why don't we help you see if there's a job to introduce you to?" "What? Her grades are bad, she lives off her parents, and she doesn't even do anything. She wouldn't be able to cope with any jobs, would she?"

"No, I'm not as thick-skinned as you. You relied on a man to get a job that you don't deserve. In the end, you still have to rely on him for a living. Mavis, as a woman, I have to remind you. If that man is willing to let you rely on him for the rest of your life, then you are lucky. But if he runs away mid-way, what else do you have?"

Mavis was stumped.

"Do you think you can still stand here proudly, wear beautiful clothes, use expensive perfume, and arrogantly announce that you want to find me a job by then? I'm afraid you won't be able to find one yourself."

After that, Olivia flashed another charming smile and whispered, "Isn't the reason you said all that was to show how well-off you are, have a good job, and you know someone influential while I have nothing? You want to see me get mad over this and embarrass myself, don't you? In your dreams."

Olivia then looked around and said to everyone gracefully, "My work time is indeed flexible right now, so if anyone wants to introduce me to a job, I can find the time to work part-time. Being able to work hard is something I find honorable."

Everyone was surprised to find that she was neither humble nor pushy. They rubbed their noses and didn't know what else to say. Mavis felt extremely vexed that she wasn't able to achieve her goal.

She grabbed Olivia's hand and wanted to say more when Marilyn came walking out from the crowd.

"Why are you grabbing my hand? Grandma is here. Shouldn't you go suck up to her? If you go a little later, I'm afraid you won't have a chance."

After hearing Olivia's words, Mavis realized something. She gave a word of warning to Olivia and rushed into the crowd.

People who gallant sure couldn't take agitation.

Olivia turned around and smiled helplessly.
