Olivia, who had been tangled up fighting with Lucas, was grabbed by the neck and hauled upright by Thomas.

He shouted, “Do you know how important that patent is to us? You’ve ruined our Clark family!”

Olivia struggled, grabbing his arm, “Let go of me.”

Lucas, with a flushed face, stood coldly aside, showing no intention of helping her.

‘What is all this?‘ Instead, the director was quite anxious.

“Stop fighting! All of you, stop! Killing will send you to jail!” Seeing the man who suddenly appeared was about to choke the crazy woman until her eyes rolled back, the director urgently snatched the stage manager’s megaphone and bellowed, his voice almost echoing.

Natasha and Sadie, who had already moved far from the battlefield, silently covered their ears.

The director, with a weathered face, had a meltdown. ‘Is this place rented for us, or for them?‘

“Don’t just stand there! Go break up the fight!” he stomped his foot while directing the staff.

If someone really died today, the whole crew would be called in for questioning by the police.

He would be so done.

Several stronger photographers frantically rushed to pull them apart. In the process, some were inevitably punched by an enraged Thomas, or scratched by Olivia’s flailing nails. Others were tripped by Lucas, who was inexplicably tangled with Olivia as she held onto his clothes and refused to let go.

The entire scene devolved into chaos.

Sadie laughed gleefully.

Finally, after Olivia was shoved out by Thomas, instinctively grabbing Lucas and causing them to knock over an expensive machine, the director went ballistic. “Ah, my new equipment! I’ll kill you all!”

“Calm down! Murder is illegal!”

Sadie couldn’t hold it in anymore, leaning on Natasha’s shoulder, shaking with laughter and wiping tears.

Natasha also smiled slightly.

So, sometimes, those who fancy themselves upper class aren’t necessarily more dignified than ordinary people.

For their own gain, they still abandoned their conscience, schemed at every turn, and fought in public.

Ten minutes later, the three who had finally been pulled apart stood on opposite sides, surrounded by a group of watchful staff members preventing them from going crazy again.

The director, by himself, was crouching outside the crowd, holding his broken equipment and crying.

Thomas’s eyes were red, filled with pain, hatred, and regret. “The Clark family treated you well, even giving you 300 thousand dollars in the end. How could you so brazenly stab us in the back? Do you know Dad was so furious he’s been hospitalized?”

Thomas had found no leads at the yacht party. Andrew had to use his last bit of influence to painstakingly find a buyer.

Although the buyer offered a very low price, it could still somewhat alleviate their urgent financial strain.

But unexpectedly, even this deal fell through.

At the last minute of signing the contract, news channels suddenly live–streamed a new product launch from the Clark family’s former rival company. Their product

used the Clark family’s new technology.

The buyer, who was almost conned, not only flipped the table on the spot but also furiously berated Andrew, widely exposing Andrew and Thomas’s breach of

contract.

The Clark family had recently declared bankruptcy. This incident made creditors even more worried about repayment, and they rushed to demand payment.

Thomas had imagined many predicaments, but he never thought the deepest stab to the Clark family would come from Olivia.

The technology was well–protected, but Olivia was a Clark family member. Andrew and Thomas had always shown great affection for her, even prioritizing her over their biological daughter Natasha. This led the R&D team to have no guard against Olivia.

Using the opportunity to intern at the company, she easily colluded with the rival

company.

Thomas wished he could strangle her

That was his painstaking effort of many years, the last resort to save the Clark family from their debt crisis.

She actually sold it to his enemy at a low price.

Fear still lingered on Olivia’s face, but her words were mercilessly sarcastic, “Why can’t I? What does the Clark family’s decline have to do with me? Haven’t you already taken back all the shares and assets you gave me? How did you treat me when I got out of prison? Indifference, neglect, suppression… Were you fair to me with any of it?”

She clutched her neck and scoffed. “Thomas, you brought this upon yourselves.”

“Ungrateful wretch! Our family shouldn’t have adopted you in the first place!” Every word Thomas spoke seemed to be squeezed through gritted teeth, filled with deep hatred.

She clearly knew their entire family was relying on that patent. She watched him shamelessly begging everyone, constantly hitting brick walls, yet she said nothing.

She even silently took money from the Clark family in the end.

“When Andrew leveraged the good reputation of adopting me to attract resources and promoted everywhere using the name of having a talented dancer daughter, why didn’t you say I shouldn’t have been adopted? Let me tell you, I am now Mrs. Wright, so get lost if you don’t want trouble!”

Thomas could not answer.

However, as he looked at the wedding dress the crew had salvaged, dark shadows swirled in his eyes.

Did she think she could happily marry Lucas after destroying the Clark family?

Never!

“Olivia, you will pay the price.” He gazed at her coldly, without a trace of sibling affection.

Olivia’s heart clenched for a moment, and then she raised her cynical face.

She said, “Before I pay the price, you should think about how to save yourself. Thomas, you’re no longer the noble heir anymore.”

Thomas took one last deep look at her, then turned to leave.

However, as he barely took a step, he met Natasha’s calm gaze.

He had come here after learning Olivia was present; he never expected to encounter Natasha.

Realizing she had just witnessed the most pathetic and miserable moment of his life, Thomas felt a moment of shame,

Natasha always looked at him with trust and admiration when she was a child,
