Smith family.
“Dad,” Winona said as she sat on the chair. The first thing she said when they met was about Olivia. “I
heard that Olivia is the head of the Smith family. Do you know the Smith family? What’s their
background?”
“Jonny Manson sat opposite her. He was looking at a painting. When he heard his daughter’s question,
he did not even raise his head. His attitude was dismissive. ““The Smith family is not considered an
aristocratic family, but they shouldn’t be underestimated either,” he said.”
Winona frowned and said, “What’s the deal with this family? Is the Smith family really a family with a
long history and one that has been around for hundreds of years?”
Upon hearing this, Jonny finally raised his gaze from the painting and looked at Winona, saying, “The
Smith family does have some history. Just like our family, the Smith family is also a vassal of the main
family.”
“The Smith family is also a vassal!” Winona said. She was shocked, thinking, “How come I never knew
about this in the past?”
Something crossed Winona’s mind. She frowned and said, “Dad, between the Smith family and our
family, which one does the main family value more?”
“What do you think?” Jonny said as he raised his eyebrows and said proudly. “With modern medicine
being so advanced, it dominates everything. There’s no longer a place for ancient medicine, and as a
result, the Smith family has lost its rightful position.
“Otherwise, the Wilcox family and the Smithson family wouldn’t have given up on medicine so early and
looked for other options. Only that old fellow, Isaac, is holding on to ancient medical practices.” At this
point, Jonny paused for a moment before he continued, “Don’t even mention the present day. Even
hundreds of years ago, the Smith family’s home was just a royal hospital, while our family played a
crucial role in the main family’s wealth. The Smith family is not in a position to compare with us at all.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSpeaking of wealth matters, Jonny frowned and asked Winona, “How are you getting along with
Daniel? Weren’t you certain about the love you have for him? Why did you let him get engaged to the
Smith family’s girl?”
While the Manson family had a history of several hundred years and substantial wealth, some of the
senior members within the family had been sticking to old traditions and were resistant to new things.
As a result, they missed out on the opportunity for internet development.
Currently, the internet landscape in the country had already been established. There was hardly any
opportunity to get involved in it.
Faced with no other option, the Manson family had to be opportunistic.
Since they could not directly claim a share of the internet boom, they took an indirect approach by
making Daniel, who was the domestic internet giant, a part of the Manson family.
So, when Winona saw the news of Daniel’s engagement, she hurriedly returned to the country, hoping
to salvage their relationship.
In recent years, the Manson family had been on a decline, and they urgently needed some fresh blood
to counteract the family’s declining status.
Therefore, Winona was determined to win over Daniel.
Just a few days ago, even though Daniel was already engaged to Olivia, Winona was still full of
confidence in her relationship with Daniel. She believed that Daniel had feelings for her and that his
engagement to someone else was just a way of provoking her.
However, after facing Olivia today, Winona could not help but feel a bit heavy–hearted.
She thought to herself, “This woman is a bit of a handful.
“But it’s not very difficult to deal with her. It’s just a little troublesome.
“The Smith family is nothing more than a fallen family. The main family doesn’t care about them at all.
According to Dad, in recent years, the Smith family has already been pushed out of the core of
power. They are clueless about many of the main family’s strategies and plans, and they have
completely fallen to the bottom.
“The Wilcox family, which is located outside the country, does not care about the Smith family at all.
They haven’t had any contact with the Smith family for decades.
“Most importantly, Isaac, who has the best medical skills among all members of the Smith family, has
become a vegetable. He is in a coma. Olivia alone could not support the Smith family.”
At this point, a few hints of smugness flashed across Winona’s eyes.
She thought, “This Olivia that comes from a fallen family actually wants to fight against me. What an
excessive display of pride and total ignorance of her own limitations!”
Winona was not afraid of dealing with Olivia, but when she thought of the two police officers she met
today, she felt somewhat uncertain.
That was how the situation was in the country. Business owners naturally had a fear of politics. “Dad,
Olivia is protected by two police officers,” Winona said. “Do you think there may be some influential
figures backing her up?” Winona was very concerned about this.
“Impossible!” Jonny said. His expression was contemptuous. “Don’t worry about this. The Smith family
doesn’t have any influential figures backing them up. It’s just because of their medical expertise and a
slightly broader network.”
Upon hearing this, Winona was relieved. She could now act without any reservations.
Winona and Daniel had known each other for many years, so she had a reasonable level of knowledge
about him. He despised underhanded tactics behind the scenes.
She thought, “Previously, I failed to scheme against Olivia at Fracha Club. This time around, Daniel
must have sensed my intention, so I absolutely cannot act rashly again in the short term.
“If Daniel were to find out that I am secretly harming Olivia, even if he loves me deeply, he would never
be with me.
“Therefore, I’ve got to defeat Olivia openly without resorting to underhanded tactics.
“I am the heiress of the Manson family, and I have assets worth 2 billion dollars. How can Olivia, a
member of the insignificant Smith family, compare to me?
“I will make Olivia feel ashamed and let Daniel understand who is the one that is truly capable of

him.
“However, before that, I’ll have a small payback for Olivia.
“I’ll think of a way to make Sarah and Michael tell Daniel about what happened today.
“Daniel loves me deeply, and upon hearing about this, he will surely be extremely angry. He will get
upset with Olivia and resent her.
“As long as there is a rift between the two of them, I’ll have a way to drive a wedge between them.”
Thinking of this, Winona called Olivia.
Olivia was reading documents in the study when she received a call from Winona. She was a little
surprised.
“You’re out so soon?” Olivia asked.
Winona choked with anger.
She thought to herself, “Can’t this bitch talk about something else? Why does she have to mention this
and poke at my heart?”
Taking a deep breath, Winona said mockingly, “Olivia, don’t be smug. Wait until Daniel returns, and
you’ll realize something.”
Olivia was baffled. She said, “Daniel is my fiancé. What I will realize is none of your business.”
“Humph,” Winona sneered. She then said, “You still don
was
know, huh? In the past, when I with Daniel, he cared about me the most. He couldn’t bear to see me
feel aggrieved. Even if there was the tiniest bit of grievance, he would ensure that any injustice or
wrong I suffered was corrected Today, you provoked me. I don’t need to do anything. Daniel will deal
with you!”
Olivia was left speechless.
After a long while, she asked In puzzlement, “Ms. Manson, do you have a bit of a mental problem? You
certainly have a mental problem!”
She thought, “I’ve never seen such a narcissistic person.”
