Chapter 370 Viscount Cliff’s Intention

Sophia walked to Olivia's study, pushed the door open, and frowned when she found that the door was closed.

Generally speaking, unless there are special circumstances, Viscount Cliff and Olivia's study door will not be locked. After all, someone will come to report or visit at any time.

This is very wrong, what was Olivia doing when she locked herself in the study.

Sophia knocked on the door, and after a while Olivia opened the locked study door from the inside and let Sophia in.

"Sorry," Olivia smiled reluctantly, "I've been waiting for so long."

Sophia shook her head and quickly looked at Olivia - a bad look was the norm these days, which was not surprising, but her hair looked like it had been arranged in a hurry and was a little messy, and her eye circles were

It's red, but it doesn't look like it's been cried, it looks more like it was rubbed out by oneself.

"What... happened?" Sophia asked softly, "Did you and Miss Felicia quarrel?"

"No," Olivia denied, "How could I quarrel with Felissa."

Yes, how could she quarrel with Felissa? Felissa is her very important sister.

"Then, why didn't Miss Felicia stay to have dinner with us?" Sophia didn't believe that nothing happened, "I have already told the kitchen to prepare it."

Olivia lowered her eyes: "I remembered that there were some things that hadn't been dealt with yet, so I asked her to go back first."

Felissa said that she had something to do, Olivia also said that she had something to do, and Sophia was not a fool. Felissa looked normal when she went back, but Olivia looked worse. Who has it?

Can't you see the problem yet?

Seeing her grown-up child haggard like this, Sophia was also sad: "Perhaps, you should talk to His Excellency the Viscount. You are mother and daughter."

Of course Sophia, who is attentive and attentive, has long noticed the strange atmosphere between Olivia and Viscount Cliff, but she can't say anything and can only make suggestions carefully.

Olivia's voice was deep: "No need, I can handle it myself."

She can't let her mother down anymore, so this time she won't ask anyone for advice and will independently find a way to get things done.

Just like Felissa.

Felissa has always solved problems on her own, and she can do it too.

Seeing her determined look, Sophia knew that no matter how hard she tried to persuade her, it would be useless. In terms of stubbornness, Olivia had inherited it from Viscount Cliff.

"I understand," Sophia sighed, "but please take good care of yourself. You haven't had a good sleep in how many days."

After Sophia left Olivia's room, she turned and went to Viscount Cliff's study.

It is also her duty as a servant to persuade the lord, and now she cannot understand what Viscount Cliff wants to do.

She stood in front of Viscount Cliff's desk and asked with confusion on her face: "I don't understand the intention of your actions."

"What do you mean?" Viscount Cliff looked up from the document and raised his eyebrows at the family members who grew up with her, "If it is Olivia's matter, I have my own sense of discretion."

"Then I really don't understand where your sense of propriety lies," Sophia couldn't help but contradict Viscount Cliff, "She hasn't had a good rest these days."

"You doted on her too much," Viscount Cliff shook his head, "That's why she has made no progress until now."

Sophia only thought it was ridiculous. The word doting was far different from Olivia. Who could dote on their children as much as Olivia did?

"Aren't you too harsh on her?" Sophia retorted, "Miss Olivia is already good enough, what else do you want from her."

Olivia's diligence and hard work are of course beyond words. No matter what era or world, most diligent people will get some tolerance more easily. It means the same thing whether there is no merit or hard work.

What's more, Olivia's hard work really paid off.

"I do not deny her growth over the years," Viscount Cliff did not avoid this point. She commented pertinently, "I have nothing to teach her in terms of handling things."

"So……"

"However, she only follows orders. I don't need an heir who has no independent opinions. She even needs Felissa to make up her mind for her."

That's because under your high-pressure education, she is too afraid of making mistakes and has no confidence in herself.

Sophia couldn't say this. If she said it, she would be accusing Viscount Cliff. If she said it, she would be guilty of the following.

In the end, Sophia could only say: "You can teach her slowly."

"I have been teaching her slowly for more than ten years, and there is no more time for her to learn slowly."

Sophia didn't understand: "What do you mean by not having more time? It's far from time for you to hand over the responsibility to her."

Viscount Cliff is still in the prime of life and has no disease or pain. It is conservatively estimated that he will be able to live for another twenty or thirty years. Why rush to cultivate Olivia at this time?

Viscount Cliff pressed his eyebrows against his own and sighed: "I'm afraid if it goes any slower, she will be obedient to Felissa."

Although Felissa does not pose much of a threat now, because she is well-behaved and measured, or rather lazy, and is only interested in what she wants to do. She does not even look at other matters in Cliff City, but who

It can be guaranteed that in the future, instead of expecting Felissa to never have bad intentions towards Olivia, it is better to let Olivia know how to control her subordinates and suppress them.

Sophia, who has been with Viscount Cliff for decades, quickly remembered: "Is this why you sent Lord Nanno out? Do you want to send him away?"

Nannuo was still recuperating from his injuries, and many things did not have to be handled by Nannuo, but Viscount Cliff still asked Nannuo to handle them.

Nannuo also accepted the task without saying a word, but before leaving, he specifically found Sophia and asked her sincerely to take good care of Olivia.

Although Sophia felt baffled, she had brought Olivia up with her own hands, and it was not Nannuo's turn to ask her for help.

Thinking about it now, it was Nannuo who had noticed Viscount Cliff's intention and was silently cooperating with Viscount Cliff. But he couldn't trust Olivia at all, so he came to ask her in person.

Viscount Cliff said calmly: "It's not to get rid of him, but to cut off the possibility of Olivia becoming dependent on him."

Durant said nicely that Nannuo and Olivia were mutually benefiting each other, but in fact Nannuo did not receive any benefits. Instead, Olivia solved the urgent need. It cannot be said to be mutual benefit at all. The so-called "

"Mutual benefit" is just Nannuo's way of asking Olivia to accept his help.

Viscount Cliff could only tolerate this kind of help once, and Nannuo knew this very well. Faced with Viscount Cliff's straightforward expulsion, he accepted it without a word.
