Chapter 317 Hot-Tempered
Richard was a pretty good-natured man, but he couldn’t stand it when others harmed those he held dear. Anna
knew that her nephew was a good-tempered man only until someone insulted the people he cared about.
Naturally, Richard got annoyed because Olivia kept going at Julia. Anna let out a sigh and nodded. “Sure. Go ahead.
You guys can come again some other day.”
Julia had intended to tolerate Olivia’s temper and stay behind to accompany Nicole, but she couldn’t say much
since Richard had announced their departure. Nicole could tell that Julia was hesitant to leave, so she smiled to
show Julia that she was fine without Julia.
Only then did Julia walk out with Richard. After they left, Olivia continued speaking in an exasperated tone. “Kids
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtnowadays can’t take criticism at all! They can’t even stand it when their seniors give them some advice!”
Anna was rather displeased to see how Olivia was still complaining even after her nephew had left. “Richard has a
pretty good temper. He wouldn’t have been so vicious if you had spoken politely.” Wendy spoke up for Richard as
well. “Yeah. Richard has always been an easygoing guy.”
Olivia narrowed her eyes and glared at Anna and Wendy before scoffing. “Are you guys saying that I’m bad-
tempered?” She threw her cutleries on the table and stood up. “It seems like my presence isn’t welcomed here.
Fine. I’ll leave!”
Benjamin couldn’t help but rub his forehead and let out a sigh when he saw Olivia getting mad. Everyone had been
gathered for dinner, yet the atmosphere turned tense because of her.
Great. Everyone’s leaving now, he thought. Anna could tell that Benjamin was annoyed, so she tried to calm him
down. “It’s fine. I think it’s best that they don’t interact with each other.”
“My sister’s temper is really getting progressively worse,” Benjamin uttered while shaking his head. Despite this,
they couldn’t completely cut ties since they were all blood-related.
Wendy lowered her head as she mumbled to herself. “Her temper is beyond bad. Sometimes, I don’t even know
what she’s angry about.”
Anna beamed while she shouldered on good-naturedly. “That’s enough out of you. She’s older than you, so you
shouldn’t talk about her like that.” The dinner went on smoothly for Nicole after Olivia left. Judging by the way she
acted, it seemed like Olivia had a grudge against everyone.
After the meal, Nicole stepped out of the house. Wendy stopped her for a moment and told her how bad Olivia’s
temper was before telling her not to take it to heart. Nicole didn’t make any comments after that—she simply
responded with a faint smile.
Once Nicole left Gardner Residence, she gave Julia a call. Julia was still out having dinner with Richard, but they had
a crisis to resolve since Benedict couldn’t hang on for much longer.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNicole told Julia to meet her immediately after dinner as Nicole wanted to talk to Julia. Julia understood what Nicole
meant, so she agreed to meet up.
After Julia finished her meal hastily, she met Nicole in a café. Nicole had arrived thirty minutes earlier, and Julia
jogged over to the location as she knew that she was late.
There was a thin layer of sweat on Julia’s forehead when she finally showed up, and she was panting even after she
sat down. This rather amused Nicole. “Did you just come from a fight?”
Julia ordered a glass of water and gulped it down before speaking. “I hurried over right after you gave me a call.
Yet, I had to act calm as I finished my meal because I was worried that Richard would suspect something otherwise.
I told him that I was heading home before I came over to meet you.” Julia pouted as she spoke. “It’s all your fault! I
jogged over because I was worried that you would get impatient while waiting.”
