StarNovelChapter 571
Olivia grinned and retracted her hand. “Aren’t we friends already?”
“I mean, I won’t mention that I like you anymore. I’m just your friend, so I hope you won’t feel burdened
and push me away.”
Olivia felt something flutter deep inside her. She wanted to say something, but the words felt stuck in
her throat.
After a long time, Xavier looked at her again and asked, “Is that okay?”
Before this, she thought Xavier was a playboy and a spoiled rich man. Only now did she realize he
would never force her to do anything she felt reluctant about.
She handed him a piece of cake and smiled. “Of course, friend. Have a piece of cake.”
Xavier accepted it and smiled back at her. “Taste them all, and tell me which ones you like the most.”
“Okay.”
“By the way, I saw the news. Did you win the lawsuit?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOlivia shook her head. “Not yet. I just won the first round. We have another court session to attend next
week. I have no idea what that person will be up to this time.”
“What are you going to do if you win?”
Olivia took a bite of cake, thought for a moment, and said, “TR should apologize to us publicly and
admit they slandered us. Our atelier did not plagiarize any of those designs.”
“That’s it?”
“Well, I mostly want an apology. I want to restore the reputation of TO Atelier. After all, it took Jennie
and me three years to build the brand.”
“But I don’t think TR will apologize easily. After all, they are a global brand. If they apologize, wouldn’t it
be admitting to framing a small brand?”
Olivia scoffed. “They should have prepared for this from the day they decided to frame me.”
It was unexpected to her that TR, a global brand, would do such a thing.
She was unsure how John forced them to accuse her brand.
However, she had to admit it was indeed a good plan. It almost drove her to despair.
Suddenly, Xavier said, “Just getting an apology from them isn’t enough. I think you should ask them to
pay you compensation worth tens of millions. Otherwise, it won’t be enough to ease the anger.”
Olivia burst into laughter. “That’s a little too much. I could stop working and spend the rest of my life
doing nothing with that much money.”
“They asked you for thirty million in the first place, so I don’t think it’s too much.”
“Come on, eat.”
Olivia had a small appetite and had eaten enough fruit and pastries that she was too full to have dinner.
Thus, Xavier only chatted with her for a while and left.
Three days later, Olivia suddenly received a call from Pitt while having lunch with Jennie.
“Ms. James, TR wants to settle this matter outside court. If you are interested, we can meet and talk
this afternoon. If not, I will refuse.”
Olivia thought for a moment and replied, “Okay, let’s meet this afternoon.”
She wanted to know what TR would offer to settle with.
If she was not satisfied, she would continue to fight for justice until they apologized and begged for

“Okay, I’ll text you the time and place later.”
“Thank you.”
After hanging up the phone, Olivia smiled and said, “Jennie, let’s change our clothes and prepare to
negotiate with TR.”
“They want to settle it outside court? What are their conditions?”
“We will only know when we meet them this afternoon. Jennie, could you help me choose attire that
screams charisma? I want to put my best foot forward.”
“Okay. I’ll choose for you.”
With TR proposing a reconciliation, she was curious about whether John knew about it and whether he
agreed to it.
At the thought of that man being crushed, Olivia could not help but laugh.
Jennie, who was choosing clothes, looked at Olivia in surprise when she heard her chuckle.” Pheebs,
why are you laughing?”
