Krystal finally started to feel fear. Her father had always been strict.
Back when the siblings were young, she saw Mason stripping Linus' top.
Then, he had him kneel on the snow as he whipped him.
Mason tolerated her behavior repeatedly because she was a woman and didn't get to grow up by his side.
But the incident today was the last straw. Mason had enough.
Linus rushed over after he sent the guests away. After all, no one would be in the mood for food after an incident like that.
As soon as he stepped into the room, he heard Tatiana and Krystal crying.
"What's going on?"
"Linus, you're here just in time. You've always doted on me. Please talk to Dad. He wants to disown me!"
Linus frowned. He was a little confused.
"Dad, Krystal may have been in the wrong today, but isn't this too harsh of a punishment? How would she survive on her own?"
"If she can't survive on her own, how was Olivia able to become a renowned doctor? Her family went bankrupt, and both her parents are dead."
As soon as he said that, Linus looked at him.
"Dad, how do you know all that?"
Linus' impression of Olivia was that she was the ex-wife that Ethan loved deeply.
He had only learned about Olivia's background in the past couple of days and just found out how hard her life had been.
But Mason was able to talk about her background so casually despite only knowing of her identity moments ago.
Naturally, Linus didn't know that Mason saw Olivia's face the first time Ethan brought Olivia to the awards banquet. Mason saw her face on the news because it was reported on a national scale.
So, he looked into Olivia in private. He only dropped it after confirming that Jeff couldn't possibly be related to him.
Then, Olivia disappeared for three years. She finally showed up before him at the banquet.
