“You wicked woman, trying to scald me to death?”

Mrs. Jenkins’s face was filled with fury, her voice bitter and harsh, completely disregarding Olivia Jenkins.

Olivia’s beautiful face wore no expression at all, giving no hint of what she might be thinking. Her piercing eyes didn’t even blink as she stared at her grandmother.

If Olivia had shown anger, or revealed her emotions, Mrs. Jenkins would not have been afraid. But Olivia’s cold, emotionless silence unsettled her and made her tremble with unease.

Mrs. Jenkins covertly studied Olivia, feeling a tightening in her heart, and she was compelled to reduce her sharpness just a little.

“You wicked woman, still standing there? Are you trying to starve me? Are you trying to torment me?”

Still, Olivia remained silent, her gaze never wavering from her grandmother.

Her behavior made Mrs. Jenkins feel uneasy, as if Olivia’s piercing stare was causing her scalp to tingle. She consciously avoided Olivia’s claw-like gaze.

“You ungrateful girl, what are you trying to pull? You want to sullenly spit at me? Trying to kill me? You can’t wait for me to die, can you?”

No matter how much she provoked her, Olivia didn’t react or show any emotion. This only seemed to make Mrs. Jenkins more nervous. “I can’t stand you, get out! I don’t need you to look after me.”

But Olivia still didn’t respond, she stood there, as still as a wooden doll.

For a moment, Mrs. Jenkins seemed to lose her temper. Her once arrogant expression deflated like a punctured ball, impossible to maintain. After a few seconds of silence, Mrs. Jenkins spoke again, “Why aren’t you feeding me my porridge! Seeing you brings bad luck!”

Olivia placed the porridge on the small table, her calm gaze steadily fixed on her grandmother.

She pulled out some tissue and delicately wiped her dirty face.

Mrs. Jenkins dared not meet Olivia’s gaze and began to eat the porridge herself.

At that moment, Olivia parted her lips and in a slow, cold tone said: “Grandmother, if you wish to see Hannah Jenkins again, you must eat your meals promptly each day. If something were to happen to you, I cannot promise what extreme measures I may take. You must stay alive to see how Hannah and George are doing and to see them live well.”

“You… dare to threaten me!”

“Am I not the evil one in your eyes, grandmother? So, is there anything I wouldn’t do? How could you ever rely on me?”

With a dark aura emanating from her, Olivia leaned towards her grandmother. Her still dirty face loomed larger before her, her eyes chilling and threatening.

In a flash, Mrs. Jenkins did not dare to utter a word and quietly ate her porridge.

“Grandmother, in the past, I was very obedient at home and understood how to gauge the mood. I hope you understand this principle as well – to not thoughtlessly make things difficult for each other. If I’m doing well, you’re doing well, Hannah and George are doing well, we can all live peacefully. Otherwise… you know!”

Despite her irritation, Mrs. Jenkins dared not vent her anger at Olivia, but snapped, “You’ve gotten everything from the Jenkins family, don’t be excessively greedy!”

Olivia’s indifferent face did not display any change in emotion. “No matter who provokes me and makes me feel discontent, we can all be unhappy. You only accuse me, make yourself too much of an issue. Can’t I be a bit cruel as well? Grandmother, haven’t you ever heard of the saying ‘an eye for an eye’?”

Mrs. Jenkins stopped trying to argue. She finished her porridge and placed the bowl heavily on the small table.

She turned her head to the other side, not wanting to look at Olivia, but the anger was clearly displayed on Mrs. Jenkins’ face.

Olivia took the bowl and stood in the bathroom. Her eyes welled up with tears, and her heart filled with an indescribable sorrow..
