Chapter 260
Rebecca’s pale face turned ashen.
The Oliver family was surrounded. She pretended to be a maid and came out from the back door, but she was still discovered and surrounded by the protesters. They thought she was only a maid and did not make things difficult for her. However, she was still in a mess and had bruises on her

“I.. I have something to discuss with Mrs. Erickson,” said Rebecca.
She looked at the villa. Through the glass hall, she could see many noble ladies gathered in the hall. They y were dressed luxuriously and were dressed in jewelry. They were drinking and chatting.
Leika was holding a small party. Rebecca knew those wealthy women, She used to be one of them.
“Mrs. Erickson has something on now and can’t see you The security guard was frustrated and angry
They didn’t know her identity yet Mrs. Erickson can’t receive someone dressed like this they thought. If they let her barge in, it would be their dereliction of duty.
Even if they knew her identity, with the Oliver family’s current situation, it was even more impossible for them to let her in
They just wanted to chase her away as soon as possible
“Please inform her. I have something important to discuss with her Rebecca was anxious. She lowered her voice and begged.
She had to ask the Erickson family for help to protect her husband and father–in–law’s positions. Otherwise, the Oliver family would be finished. At that time, they would lose everything, not to mention their reputation.
“Leave your contact
ract information behind and go back first. Mrs. Erickson will contact you when she is done,” said the security guard.
This was what Rebecca usually did when she rejected people. She knew the security guards would not let her see Leika at all.
She pushed him away and ran straight to the hall, shouting, “Mrs. Erickson, Mrs. Erickson…“.
The security guards were shocked and immediately went up to arrest her.
“Oh! Isn’t that Mrs. Oliver?” Those wealthy women in the hall had already seen Rebecca When she shouted, they recognized her.
Everyone was a little surprised. Their expressions were filled with probing and scrutiny,
The Oliver family suddenly caused a big commotion, so they paid close attention to it. The relationships in the Iverton circle were complicated. and everyone had their interests involved
They didn’t expect Rebecca to be in such a sorry state so quickly.
Leika came with a glass of wine and saw the security guards grabbing Rebecca and dragging her our

“You guys go ahead and play. I go take a look.” Leika handed the wine glass to the maid and went out She was dressed in a slim red dress and looked lordly, beautiful, dignified, and elegant.
When
the
security guards saw her coming out, they let go of Rebecca.
“Co do your work” She dismissed the security guards. “Mrs. Oliver, come with me“
She knew what Rebecca was here for. These things could not be discussed in public,
Rebecca followed her for a few steps and looked into the hall. Those ladies were looking out through the glass doors and windows,
“Mrs. Erickson!” Rebecca suddenly stepped forward, grabbed her arm, and bowed to her.
“The Oliver family did make a mistake, but it was all my mother–in–law’s fault. My husband and my father–in–law are innocent. Someone deliberately created hype to target the Oliver family. Mrs. Erickson, please help the Oliver family for the sake of our many years of friendship. Let the Oliver family receive fair treatment,” said Rebecca
“My father–in–law las already called her, but Leika refused. Now that the situation is even more serious, she won’t agree if we discuss it alone. The wealthy ladies present have either husbands or relatives who occupy important positions in Iverton. Everyone’s interests are deeply intertwined. This time, when I beg her like this, it will disappoint these ladies and affect the Erickson family if she doesn’t save us. If I say it in front of everyone, the will have some scruples and might help me, Rebecca thought.
Leika frowned and her expression darkened. She was extremely embarrassed.
She could feel the many gazes behind her. She knew she was being threatened.
“Mrs. Oliver, let’s go in and talk,” said Leika.
Leika, please help us. Call Alex and tell him everything that happened recently is my mother–in– law’s doing alone. Please ask him to deal with it impanially,” said Rebecca,
Alex was the head of the military. The Oliver family could survive their public relations crisis if Alex could spare them.
As she spoke, Rebecca handed her phone over. She had already entered Alex’s number. Leika just had to press the dial button.
“Leika, please!” Rebecca begged.
‘It’s just making a call. If I can’t even help with this, who will dare to trust me and the Erickson family and work for the Erickson family? A cold light surged in Leika’s eyes, but she could only take the phone.
Rebecca held her breath and looked at Leika without blinking.
As long as she makes this call, the higher–ups will know that the Erickson family is on the Oliver family’s side. Then, there will be room for negotiation, Rebecca thought.
Leika gripped the phone. She only moved her fingers to press the dial button after a few seconds.
“Mr. Erickson!” Her private secretary rushed over “Mrs. Erickson, Mr. Erickson has called.
Seeing his serious expression, Leika took a few steps to the side before letting him speak,
“It was a call from Kentside Carden. They are going to investigate Neal and Larry Mr. Erickson asked you not to interfere in this matter, said the secretary
“Kentside Garden” Leika’s exression changed. “It’s Blake?”
Everyone knew that Blake lived in Kentside Carden.
The Andrews family had their people in the military and politics. Although they were not the leaders, the influence of the Andrews family had permeated all walks of life. Their influence far exceeded that of other families, let alone individuals.
Therefore, as long as the Andrews family’s people gave the order, even Alex couldn’t take matters into his own hands.
“Mr. Erickson didn’t say it. He just said it was the higher–ups‘ idea, the secretary replied..
Leika looked down at the phone in her hand and her expression turned cold. She knew she could not make this call.
She turned around and walked up to Rebecca. “Mrs. Oliver, 1 can’t make this call
Rebecca’s expression changed and her voice trembled, “Why?”
Leika replied, “The Andrews family has interfered. It’s useless to look for Alex unless you go to the Andrews family and make the Andrews family change their mind.”
The Andrews family intervened. None of the Erickson family and the Tanner family were clean. They could not withstand the investigation at all. She could only try her best to avoid the Andrews family now, so she dared not interfere.
Rebecca’s body went limp and she slumped to the ground. “Why would the Andrews family interfere? Led by the Erickson family, the Oliver family is not on the same side as the Andrews family. No faction dares to go against the Andrews family. How did that happen?
“The Oliver family’s incident happened because of your son and Lea. I heard that the Andrews family’s eldest grandson, Milton, has taken a fancy to that linle girl. Christian and Blake are good friends, so the Erickson family really can’t help much with this matter,” said Leika.
Milton was the young man the wealthy women in the Iverton circle paid attention to, and his confession on the television station shocked the entire Iverton. They were also clear about it and paid attention to this matter. They always discussed it when they had nothing to do,
Rebecca’s face turned pale again.
She thought of what happened between her son and Lea and how things had come to this point that she could not clean up.
“Mrs. Oliver, I can’t help you even if I want to. Do you want to go in for a glass of water first, or should I get someone to send you back? Leika asked. Rebecca got up from the ground, her reyes filled with despair. “Leika, is the Erickson family not going to help the Oliver family!”
The Oliver family had relied on the Erickson family to rise step by step. For the past few decades, they had been the tools of the Erickson family
and had done countless shady things for them.
They could not withstand the investigation because they had taken the blame for the Erickson family.
The Erickson family did not dare to give up on the Oliver family easily.
Now that Leika had made her stance clear, it meant they wanted to abandon the Oliver family as a tool.
Leika just looked at her in silence with a firm attitude.
“Leika, my son has a conflict with Lea because of your daughter, Abigail id Rebecca.
“Anyway, the Oliver family is finished already, so I have nothing to worry about. Rebecca recalled what Lea had said to her back then and was furious. She could not hold it in anymore and cursed. “Abigail was jealous that Lea’s results surpassed hers and stole her thunder, so she used my son to get rid of Lea. The culprit behind all of this is your good daughter. Now, the Erickson family wants to stay out of it?”
s, their expressions changed drastically as they looked at the open–air staircase.
d this.
When the women in the hall heard
Abigail and Leona had already come downstairs and were watching from the staircase.
All those women’s gazes fell on Abigail. She was the young lady of the younger generation, known as the number one socialite of the Iverton. She was good–looking a genius, and outstanding in music, chess, and painting. She barely had any flaws.
They had watched her grow up, and she was the ideal marriage partner in their hearts.
This incident is related to her? Would she do such a thing? People wondered
Abigail’s expression changed. Under the sunlight, her face was pale.
She never thought that Rebecca would expose those things in public. If word got out, her reputation would be ruined.
Leika was also shocked. She looked at her daughter in surprise, puzzled and worried
“No. L.” Abigail was anxious to explain to her mother and the ladies watching in the hall, As soon as she opened her mouth, her eyes turned red. It was as if she had suffered a great grievance.
