The raise of Maureen Smith and her Good Luck System-Chapter 35 - Don’t you dare

But now, Maureen would rather break like jade than be complete as pottery.

She would rather have nothing than only a part.

It was as if she wanted to sever everything.

No more connections between him and her.

Anger was written all over Chris’s face, but he was genuinely upset and at a loss.

What should he do?

The three of them walked to the tall teaching building when one friend, seeing his terrible mood, gave him an idea,

“Didn’t you say your sister had a crush on Richard?

Why don’t you try to play matchmaker?

If you succeed, your sister will surely reconcile with you.”

“Cut it out, what a ridiculous idea,” Chris thought his friend was absolutely unreliable.

“I better go find my oldest brother.”

Currently, Daniel was filming abroad.

He had always been the most critical of Maureen, so he was the last person he could turn to for help.

Their father was also abroad for business, and he didn’t even know about Maureen living on campus yet.

Once he found out, he would definitely be furious, so Chris absolutely couldn’t go to him either.

Out of options, Chris made a call to Oliver, urging him to come up with a solution quickly.

=========

How could Oliver not be trying to figure out a solution?

After all, he is quite occupied with his company affairs and social commitments.

With Maureen changing her number making it impossible to contact her, he wasn’t the type to spare time like Chris, to squat and wait outside her dorm.

So he had the maid at home pack up the clothes Maureen often wore in autumn and winter, sneak a card with a few thousand yuan in it, then had the driver take the maid to deliver these to Maureen.

This time, in order to avoid provoking Maureen’s repulsion, he didn’t leave any messages for her through the maid.

His concern was purely about the weather getting cold and Maureen catching a cold, so he only sent over the clothing she might need.

After giving these instructions, Oliver felt something was still not quite right.

The maid had a long tenure with the Smith’s, earning the respect from the family for her loyalty.

She was the one who took care of Maureen as she grew up, thus her relationship with Maureen seemed just average at best.

Oliver himself hardly spent time home, but he noticed that Maureen hardly initiated conversations with the maid when he was around.

Sending the maid over might not serve to soften Maureen’s hardened defense.

So, Oliver chose to have his own assistant make the delivery.

In the past, Oliver might not have had the luxury of time to consider catering to Maureen’s emotions.

Yet, now that she remained obstinately away, Oliver was naturally splitting his attention for her.

However, the outcome was the same as with Chris.

The things were returned as they were sent.

The maid, having not grasped the severity of the situation, got down from the car in the parking lot, incessantly complaining to Oliver,

“Miss Maureen is really hard to serve!”

“I left the stuff in the car and went to the teaching building to find her.

But I didn’t see her anywhere, just ended up being kicked out by this boy with red hair.

Has she been contaminated by a bad influence?

Her classmates are all so unreasonable.”

“If Miss Bianca were here, she would definitely lead me to the dormitory and offer me a cup of water.”

“Enough, you can leave now.” Oliver’s face became increasingly unpleasant.

He was tired of her prattling and turned to his assistant who had rushed back in a hurry,

“Take the stuff and put it in my car first.”

The assistant took the items from the nanny’s hands and opened the trunk of Oliver’s Audi.

The nanny tried to say something but was escorted away by the Smith family’s driver.

After the two left, Oliver glanced at the untouched items that had been returned to the trunk.

He furrowed his brows and said,

“I understand if she had a falling out with the family, but refusing to even accept these things is too stubborn of her.

The weather turns cold abruptly, this child is too mulish.”

“And you.” He turned to his assistant.

“Didn’t I tell you to chase after them?

Weren’t you supposed to deliver these items?”

“Your family’s driver was too fast.

I couldn’t catch up.”

The assistant explained with a sense of grievance,

“But there’s something…

I’m not sure if I should mention it.”

“What?” Oliver, feeling frustrated, made his way towards the elevator.

“Speak up.” The assistant hurriedly followed and hesitated for a moment.

Oliver glanced at him:

“What is it actually?”

“I’m afraid if I say it, it might seem like I’m trying to meddle in your family affairs.”

The assistant voiced out.

Oliver knitted his brows,

“Did you happen to see something?”

“Yes, what I saw doesn’t match with what your family’s nanny said.

When I went there, I bumped into them, Maureen had indeed come out to meet her.”

The assistant noted Oliver’s changing expression and carried on,

“They were underneath the teaching building at that time.

Your family’s nanny had a long, sour face, delivering the items to her in a very unpleasant manner.

I didn’t hear exactly what was said, but judging from your nanny’s attitude, I wouldn’t have wanted to accept those items either if I were in her place.”

“During the altercation, your nanny even said something along the lines of ‘don’t know how to appreciate kindness.’

This irritated Maureen, who turned and walked away.

Then, a group of boys returning from the field happened upon the situation, and that’s when the incident of your nanny being driven away happened.

Also, do you know whom your nanny was referring to when she mentioned the red-haired boy?”

Oliver stopped in his tracks.

His focus was not on the last sentence, but on what was mentioned beforehand.

He was usually composed, but his face now was as grim as it could possibly be.

” Mark, are you telling the truth?”

“There might have been students who witnessed the event.

If you don’t believe me, I can find a few for you.”

Oliver had never thought it could come to this!

He was already swamped with work at the company, and he generally didn’t manage the domestic affairs.

That was all handled by his mother.

If it weren’t for Maureen threatening to cut ties, causing such a big scene, and fearing his parents would find out, he wouldn’t have involved himself.

However, as far as he was concerned, such an incident should absolutely not have happened.

A nanny is a nanny.

No matter how many years she has worked in his home, or how they treated her like family, she remained a nanny.

If Maureen made a mistake, by what right did she ridicule and deride Maureen?

Moreover, Oliver suddenly realized something.

If it happened this time, had this nanny called Daniel ever targeted Maureen before, and the family was clueless?!

Oliver felt a jab of pain in his heart and a whirl of emotions.

He took a deep breath, threw the car keys into Mark’s arms, and walked in the opposite direction.

Mark hastily caught the car keys.

“What are you doing?

We still have a meeting later.”

“The meeting has been postponed.

You drive, I’ll head back and see what’s actually happening.”
