Betrayal At the Altar by Dolores Delia

Betrayal At The Altar

Chapter 556

Marina leaned lazily on the chaise lounge, wearing a ( cin na mon) -colored satin slip dress.

She was lying on her side, showing off her graceful and enchanting figure. Her arms were propped on the armrest

of the sofa, and her loose collar revealed endless lust.

Hearing the assistant’s words, she slowly raised her eyes and stretched out her red-painted toes to lift the

assistant’s chin and said mockingly. Why? Do you feel sorry for her?”

Albert’s heart (ski p ped) a beat. He quickly explained, “I only made a bold guess because I saw you were interested

in her…”

He paused for a moment and added, “I was insensible and broke the rules.”

Albert was in his early twenties, but he had an extremely handsome face with thick eyebrows and a pair of watery,

innocent deer-like eyes, which made people feel protective toward him.

Even though he was kneeling on the ground in a humble manner now, he did not look lowly at all. Instead, it made

people feel sorry for him.

Marina got angry when she heard him speak up for Olivia Cruise, but instantly the anger dissipated when

she saw his face.

“She’s just a clown who can’t achieve anything.” Marina sneered. Her tone was filled with disdain. “It’s a pity that I

put in so much effort for her previously.”

However, apart from Olivia Cruise, she still had countless (go dda ughters).

With her status, as long as she casually crooked her finger, countless people would rush forward.

As she spoke, she slowly retracted her foot, but Albert in front of her was very sensible. At the critical moment, he

grabbed her foot.

The warmth of his palm landed on her feet, causing Marina’s eyebrows to twitch.

She looked at Albert in front of her.

Albert held her feet, slowly bent down to kiss them gently, and his kiss slowly walked up.

The feather-light kiss easily made Marina lose her breath.

Her fair skin was slightly flushed. She straightened her toes and sank one hand tightly into the sofa while the other

uncontrollably pressed on Albert’s head.

At this moment, her phone suddenly rang.

Marina gradually recovered from the pleasure and picked up her phone weakly. When she saw the call from Olivia,

a trace of disgust flashed across her eyes.

After turning the phone into silent mode, she casually threw it aside.

Olivia couldn’t get through to Marina for a long time, and her heart was a mess.

“Olivia, what’s wrong?” Louis looked at her pale face and frowned slightly. “Are you feeling unwell?”

Olivia suddenly came back to her senses. She looked up and was caught off guard by Louis’ sharp gaze. She

immediately lowered her gaze in guilt and panic. 1, I just suddenly feel a little disgusted…”

Hearing this, Louis frowned imperceptibly. He could not help but think of another word.

His cold gaze swept across Olivia’s abdomen without batting an eyelid, and then he quickly looked away.

“What did Miss Jones say just now?” Louis changed the topic at the right time.

Olivia’s eyes flickered. Without changing her expression, she said, “Marina said that she has something on and can’t

leave for the time being. She’ll come later.”

Louis nodded as if he believed Olivia’s words without a doubt.

“Louis, can you do me a favor?” Olivia held Louis’ hand and looked at him gently.

She knew what was good about her and what kind of expression could make the man in front of her believe her and

let her do whatever she wanted.

Louis met her gentle and loving gaze. His heart softened for some reason, and his mind immediately heated up.

“Tell me.”

The smile in Olivia’s eyes deepened. “Help me pick someone up at the Central Hospital.”

“Okay.”

After finally seeing off Louis Smith, Olivia secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Now, she could only place her hopes on Lynn Wright’s mother.

However, just as she thought this, she heard a commotion at the door.

Olivia turned around and saw Lynn and the two uniformed police behind her.

“Olivia, what’s going on!” Bertha Cruise panicked the moment she saw the police. She rushed forward and held

Olivia’s hand tightly. “Didn’t we hold a press conference to clarify the rumors online? How did things turn out like

this?”

Last night, Olivia even swore to Bertha that everything was under her control.

Now, things had long exceeded her control.

Not only did everything not go according to plan, but the current change had even caught her off guard.

Olivia stared at the police officer who walked in.

Until the police officer came up to her. “Miss Olivia Cruise. We now suspect you of being involved in a case of

intentional assault based on the suspect’s testimony. Now we have a few questions. We hope you can cooperate

with our investigation.”

“Alright.” Olivia took a deep breath and looked up at the reporters who had surrounded her. Her eyes darkened

slightly. “Since it’s an official business, why don’t you come to my office?”

Without waiting for the police to speak, Lynn suddenly said, “If you have something to say, why don’t you say it in

front of everyone? Otherwise, it will arouse everyone’s wild guesses.”

“Miss Cruise, didn’t you say that Rachel Grey’s fall from the horse had nothing to do with you? Why are you still

hiding? Could it be that there’s something awkward to disclose?” one reporter asked.

“Could it be that you have a guilty conscience, the other one continued.

“Thinking about what Haley Bean said before and looking at Olivia Cruise’s current performance, why am I

becoming more and more suspicious of her initial words?”

For a moment, the entire press conference was filled with the voices of doubt from the reporters.

Olivia secretly gritted her teeth and tried her best to suppress the anger swirling in her chest.

She kept taking deep breaths to adjust her emotions and secretly warned herself to stay calm.

“Don’t let these rumors get the better of you.

“If I said anything wrong at this juncture, I would be beyond redemption!” she thought.

She lowered her gaze to look at the time. She was waiting for Louis to return quickly and help her resolve the

current predicament.

“Miss Cruise, I know that I can’t win against you in speech. I also know that you’re very capable. You have the

Cruise Group and your godmother to protect you, so why don’t we speak frankly?” Lynn said.

She looked especially haggard as if she had aged five or six years overnight. Perhaps it was because she was under

too much (men tal) pressure or because life in the detention center was not easy.

She was no longer as elegant as she used to be.

Olivia looked at her innocently. “Lynn, what do you mean by that? Don’t tell me you want to say that I forced you. I

know that you’re usually under a lot of pressure at work, so it’s inevitable that you’re

resentful of me. But one has to have a conscience. How can you distort the truth in front of so many people!”

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes as if she had suffered an enormous grievance.
