As soon as Alexander left, Gisselle turned around and gave Olivia a fierce pinch. "Are you crazy? Don’t you know how bad our company's situation is? Why did you provoke them?" Olivia gulped in pain and said with an aggrieved look, "I didn't provoke them!" "If you didn't, why did they come to us?” Olivia stammered. Gisselle patted her.
Finally, Olivia answered, "I... | went to the auction last night. | saw Scarlett and Alexander there. Before | came back, | told my friends about it and asked them not to gossip openly. I didn't expect them to spread rumors!" Gisselle was furious and slapped Olivia on the back fiercely. "It's useless to say anything now. Since Alexander has said so, hurry up and apologize to Scarlett!" Olivia was reluctant. They were caught on the spot by Scarlett at noon yesterday.
Rumors came out after that. Olivia naturally didn't want to go to Scarlett.

What was more, Scarlett had warned Olivia yesterday. If Scarlett knew that it was Olivia who caused the trouble, Olivia would be screwed.
Seeing that Olivia was silent, Gisselle was even angrier. "What are you thinking? Do you think Alexander was joking?" As Gisselle was about to hit Olivia again, Olivia hurriedly dodged. "It's not that | don't want to apologize to Scarlett. She saw me gossiping about her when | was having lunch with my friends yesterday." Gisselle's face turned livid with anger." You'll be the death of me! | told you to watch your tongue. You guys are reckless! You'll ruin our family sooner or later!" Olivia knew that she was wrong and didn't dare to refute what Gisselle said. They couldn't afford to offend Alexander and Scarlett.
Olivia looked at Gisselle. "Then what should we do, Mom?" "You still know I'm your mom. You're killing me!" Gisselle was enraged, but she was still very sensible about the situation.
Olivia said so many bad things about Scarlett. What she said was spread and heard by Scarlett. If Scarlett wanted to pursue the matter, they would be in trouble. Since Alexander came to the Hudson family, they could only make an apology and see what would happen after that.
"Quickly post an apology on Line and ask your friends to repost it." Gisselle frowned. "Let me think about your apology gift to Scarlett." If this had happened five years ago, they would have given Scarlett money, a bag, a car, or anything because they didn't know Scarlett was rich at that time. Everyone once thought Scarlett married into the Shaw family because of their money.
Yet they had realized that Scarlett was not short of money. Gisselle was racking her brains, trying to pick a suitable gift.
Besides, even if they prepared an expensive gift, it couldn't attract Scarlett.

Thus, the gift had to be something Scarlett liked. Yet Scarlett had few good friends.
They didn't know where Alexis was, and Cindy, the James girl, was not the person that they could talk to.
Gisselle's head throbbed painfully. Olivia said hesitantly, "Mom, why don't we give her a bag?" "Does Scarlett like bags?" "Alexander wanted to buy her a bag at the auction last night, but it was bought by me at last. | didn't know that until I paid for it. Anyway, many women like bags." Hearing what Olivia said, Gisselle almost fainted.
Gisselle staggered a few steps, steadied herself with her hand on the sofa, and sat down. The maid hurriedly gave her medicine.
Gisselle took the medicine. After a while, she looked coldly at Olivia. "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up! Bring that bag to Scarlett and apologize to her?" Olivia's expression instantly changed." Mom, do you mean that | should give the bag to Scarlett?" "Of course! You took away the bag she likes and slandered her behind her back. Do you think there's a better solution?" "But... | spent more than 3 million dollars on it. There are only three collections in the world. | love it." "You're unwilling to give it away, right? Then I'll ask your father to freeze all your bank cards starting tomorrow!" Olivia was immediately frightened by Gisselle's words, not daring to say anything else. Olivia hastily ran up to the third floor and put the bag back into its package. It had just been delivered to her home. She hadn't had time to admire it.
