Even After Death Novel (Olivia Fordham And Ethan Miller) novel Chapter 1454

Back then, the Fordham family was quite well-known in Aldenvine. Many pitied them when they suddenly announced bankruptcy.

After that, Olivia disappeared as well. If no one brought the family up, everyone might've soon forgotten about the Fordhams.

That family was the water cooler talk for a long while. It was a mystery how Jeff offended Ethan, leading to the Fordhams' downfall.

It was a heart-wrenching story.

People wouldn't bring this up on this occasion since they had to maintain their pride.

However, Olivia's remarks had raised Tyrell's hackles. As someone who had retired from a high position, he was held with high regard everywhere he went.

Now that Olivia had embarrassed him, he wished he could do something to regain his pride again.

Considering how Jeff was someone beneath his station in the past, he perceived Olivia as a mere small fry.

He simply assumed that she was all puffed up because of his initiative to approach her.

The higher one climbed the ladder, the lower their tolerance was. If they enjoyed high social status, they would bear no room for disobedience.

They only served the people who were more powerful than them.

Humans were born this way. It was pitiful yet pathetic.

The bystanders were simply nobodies who wanted to make themselves shine in front of those stronger than them.

"The Fordham family? I remember them. I heard they went bankrupt because they offended that man from the Miller family."

"They deserved it. I wonder how that small-time businessman managed to provoke that man, though."
