Chapter 296: Who Told You to Buy It?

“If you keep spouting nonsense, get out!” Andres clutched his chest, feeling like his unfilial son might give him a heart attack.

Brody suddenly intervened. “Dad, don’t be mad. Paul met a girl today who looks a lot like Grandma, which is why he’s asking all these questions.”

As Brody spoke, his gaze flicked briefly toward Liliana. Liliana’s expression remained calm, but her heart skipped a beat at Brody’s words. A girl who looks like Grandma? Liliana’s mind was racing. She had seen videos of Olivia before, and Olivia’s features bore at least a seventy percent resemblance to the Kenneth family’s grandmother. Could it be… the girl Paul met is Olivia?

Her hands clenched into fists. Although her face betrayed no emotion, every cell in her body was tense.

“She looks like your grandmother? Where did you meet her? Who is she?” Andres asked with a slight frown. His caution stemmed from a past incident where hostile forces had tried to manipulate the family by surgically altering someone to resemble his late mother.

Paul hesitated. He was about to mention Borcalia Military Academy but remembered Marshall’s warning. “Uh, just ran into her on the street,” he said instead.

Liliana felt a wave of relief as the tension drained from her body. The Kenneth family didn’t pay much attention to the entertainment industry, and while Olivia had gained some fame recently, she wasn’t yet a household name. But this only heightened the alarm bells in Liliana’s mind. Her eyes narrowed slightly. I can’t let Olivia become more famous. I can’t let her appear in front of the Kenneth family again! If Olivia’s face alone were enough to attract their attention, it could spell disaster.

Andres didn’t dwell on the matter, assuming Paul had simply made a mistake. Brody, however, discreetly observed Liliana’s reaction but couldn’t discern anything unusual.

Meanwhile, at the Kenneth mansion, Olivia had just returned when she spotted Alexander and Vance sitting on the sofa. Seeing Alexander, Olivia froze for a moment. Alexander had been busy lately, flying all over the world and rarely coming home, which had left Olivia free to enjoy the entire bed to herself.

Now… the good times are over.

“Olivia! I heard you terminated your contract with your previous company. I saw all the stuff online—Daniel is such a scumbag!” Vance sprang up the moment he saw Olivia, rushing over to her. Vance had been waiting for this moment. The news of Olivia’s contract termination had him ready to celebrate with fireworks.

“Olivia, now that you’re without an agency, have you considered joining mine?”

Olivia frowned. “Why haven’t you given up yet?”

Vance grinned. “They say you shouldn’t let outsiders reap the benefits! Don’t worry, if you join me, I’ll get you the best agent in the business!”

Olivia rolled her eyes. “No need. I’ve started my own company.”

Vance was stunned. “You… started your own company? Did your old agency traumatize you that badly? Come on, give me a chance!” Vance exclaimed, clearly panicked.

“I get that you’re upset, but don’t worry. Your old company has already been bought out by our family. You can vent your frustrations however you like!” Vance blurted out.

“Bought out?” Olivia blinked in surprise.

Vance nodded eagerly, and Alexander, who had been quietly sitting nearby, lifted his gaze to look at Olivia. Vance was about to boast about Alexander’s bold move—buying the company to let Olivia take revenge—when Olivia’s eyes suddenly widened.

“Who told you to buy it?” she demanded, her tone sharp.
