Joseph’s face turned pale due to the sudden turn of events. He could not say anything. Under the current situation, if he continued to speak up for Sophia, his position would also be in danger. Looking at Sophia, who was covering her face, he was furious.



Another slap landed on Sophia’s face. She was already very uncomfortable when she was dismissed, but the two slaps from Joseph made the innocent-looking woman start to feel hatred for her biological father.



“Dear shareholders, this is all my fault. I hope you can forgive me for not educating this unfilial daughter of mine well. People will inevitably make mistakes. I hope that my Sophia will be allowed to make amendments for the Garcia Corporation. Please give her a chance.”



No one wanted to make a losing deal, nor did they want others to waste their money. Sophia’s words had already made everyone lose confidence in her. On account of Joseph, they were slightly appeased.



“This is your own business. We are investing so that we can earn profits together. If we make a loss or suffer a huge loss, we will definitely choose to withdraw our investment. As for whether the former Vice President wants to stay in the Garcia Corporation, you can decide for yourself.”



“Yeah, that’s right.”



After Eugene opened his mouth, the others all chimed in after him. They still had to show Joseph some trust. When doing business, leaving a backup plan was also for their own sake.



With this excuse, Sophia started to speak.



“Thank you, shareholders, for giving me this chance. This time, I will change for the better and contribute to the company.”



However, Olivia suddenly started clapping. Everyone was stunned and looked at her in confusion.



“A leopard never changes its spots. In the end, a dog can’t change its ways. If you want to hire someone, shouldn’t I, the Vice President, decide if the company can hire this person?”



Sophia’s originally happy face instantly dimmed. Many people also had their opinions on Olivia. Under normal circumstances, the Vice President wouldn’t directly participate in the selection process. This was blatant targeting.



Olivia was very satisfied with everyone’s expressions. These were exactly the expressions she wanted.



When Joseph, who was standing at the side, heard these words, his vision went dark, and he fainted.



Everyone was in a mess and wanted to help Joseph up.



How could Sophia let go of such a good opportunity to act?



She hugged the arms of the unconscious Joseph and started to cry. “Daddy, Daddy, what happened to you? Are you okay? Daddy, don’t scare me.”



Sophia’s actions undoubtedly gained the appreciation of the shareholders. Sophia was even more pleased with herself. She cried even more pitifully. Her appearance was moving, and coupled with her delicate facial features, she completely aroused the men’s desire to protect her.



“If you continue to cry like this, Joseph will die sooner or later. If you have the time to cry here, you might as well hurry and send him to the hospital.”



Olivia couldn’t be bothered to watch Sophia put on an act. It wasn’t because she was concerned about the unconscious Joseph, but because this was an urgent matter, and she couldn’t afford to think too much about it. After all, it was a human life. She took out her phone and dialed for the ambulance.



The two’s actions formed a sharp contrast. One was panicked and brainless, while the other was calm and collected. She was able to handle everything in a composed manner, so the shareholders could not help but doubt Sophia’s competence.



“Vice President, I’ll have to trouble you to take care of President Garcia. We’ll go home first. When the documents come down in a few days, you’ll be the legitimate Vice President. I hope you can lead the Garcia Corporation to the peak. We’ll all wait and see.”



Eugene thought very highly of Olivia. The Garcia Corporation had been operating for so long, and its losses outweighed its profits. It was precisely because he and his old friends had invested together that the current Garcia Corporation was formed. He looked at the unconscious Joseph, said a few polite words, and left.



The others looked at each other. No one wanted to interfere with the family affairs of the Garcia family. After sending Joseph to the hospital, they all left.



The room was filled with the smell of disinfectant. Olivia frowned slightly. She stood at the door and waited for the doctor. The doctor performed a series of tests on Joseph before he came to her.



“Mrs. Ford, there’s nothing wrong with Mr. Garcia. He fainted because he was agitated. He should be fine after resting. He should be able to wake up soon.”



Joseph’s condition had nothing to do with Olivia, but how could she let him off so easily? How much had those two tortured her in the previous life? Had he, Joseph, said anything or even helped?



Forget about helping, he didn’t even care. After all, she was his daughter, but he could still turn a blind eye to it after treating her like that. When she thought of all the things that had happened in her previous life, Olivia clenched her fists tightly.



Olivia walked to the front of the bed and looked at Joseph expressionlessly.



“My good father, don’t be anxious. This is just the beginning. If you get agitated so quickly, I’m sure you won’t be able to bear it in the future.”



The corners of Olivia’s mouth lifted slightly. In this life, no one would be able to threaten her and the child in her womb. She reached out to touch her stomach, feeling some comfort in her heart.



Sophia appeared at the door of the ward in a panic and pushed Olivia away.



“Don’t be so hypocritical. It’s your fault that Dad fainted. What’s the point of doing this now? Do you think you’ll be forgiven just like this? Let me tell you, Olivia, it’s not that easy.”



After Olivia regained her balance, she glanced at Sophia. Her gaze was as if she was looking at a pitiful worm. She had never wanted to be forgiven by Joseph, he deserved it. However, she was just taking back what belonged to her, so what was wrong with that?



“I’m not like you. There’s no one else here. You don’t have to act like an innocent saint. I’m not a man either. Your tricks don’t have any appeal to me, understand?”



Sophia looked around and saw that the doctor had already left. She stopped pretending to be an obedient daughter and glared fiercely at Olivia. It was as if she couldn’t wait to devour Olivia’s flesh.



Now that she had been fired, it meant that she had lost her source of income. The pocket money that Joseph gave her was not even enough for her skincare products. She still had to rely on her position as the Vice President to get close to Brian.



As long as she married Brian, that would be true happiness.



“We’re sisters, after all. How can you say that about me? It makes me very sad. I’m just worried about Dad’s health. Sister, if you do that, Dad will be disappointed when he wakes up.”



Olivia rubbed her temples. She had truly underestimated her good sister.



“Looking at your lovely and moving appearance, it really makes my heart flutter. If I were a man, I would be aroused too. Unfortunately, I’m not. Brian won’t see it either. You’d better give up on that thought.”
