The raise of Maureen Smith and her Good Luck System-Chapter 41 - Luck Absorption
Chapter 41: Luck Absorption
Chapter 41: Luck Absorption
“It contains only three hundred thousand, it’s a debt owed by our family to yours.
I am giving you a part of it first, don’t you get it?”
Maureen didn’t believe the Smith family had good intentions, and she didn’t believe the male lead’s halo would spare her—dare to take the male lead’s money and not invite some bad luck?
All the luck accumulated with great difficulty will be gone in a moment.
Maureen left without looking back.
Oliver felt helpless and after standing there for a while, he collected his emotions.
He found the previous class six head teacher, handed over the card, explained the situation, and asked to take good care of Maureen.
Despite being mocked by the class six head teacher, this Mr.
Logan agreed.
Only then did Oliver sigh of relief.
He returned to the school’s parking lot with a heavy heart, looking at the things carried by his assistant, and said, “She doesn’t want it.
Forget it, let’s go back to the company.”
Meanwhile, after having a hotpot, Bianca was under the impression that Oliver was supposed to pick her up today— but he didn’t?
She also tried calling, but there was no response.
Did he forget again?
Does it take so long to talk and give gifts to the dean?
Bianca was anxious and she couldn’t help but return to school with Noella, only to find the Dean’s office door already locked.
Oliver’s car was also no longer outside the school, indicating he had already left.
In Bianca’s heart, anger mixed with embarrassment.
She could barely keep a neutral expression.
“Didn’t you say that my elder brother told you he was going to give a present to the headmaster?”
Noella awkwardly answered, “That was just my guess.
He did ask me where the headmaster’s office was.
But, it couldn’t be that he went there for you, could he be going there for Maureen?”
Could he really be going there for Maureen?
Noella secretly speculated in her heart.
She looked at Bianca’s face, thinking, perhaps the Smith family did not favor Bianca as much?
Bianca felt her stare.
A prick of irritation flashed across her face as she decided not to say any more.
She got into the chauffeur-driven car and went home.
The moment she got home, she found out that Daniel’s mother, her nanny, had been fired.
Bianca simply couldn’t understand.
“Why would you send her away without my consent?”
She stormed into her mother’s room, and was met with complete emptiness.
Tears welled up in her eyes.
“What on earth did she do?

What was her transgression that warranted her being fired?”
Her mother Mrs.
Smith had gone out shopping and had not yet returned home, leaving only Chris and a few other employees in the house.
Chris typically did not meddle in such matters, and he was also anxious about how Oliver’s visit to Maureen had turned out.
He merely comforted Bianca briefly.
However, irritated by the noise around him, he decided to go sit on the swing in the yard.
The chauffeur explained to Bianca, “Miss, you were in the middle of an exam, so we didn’t have time to inform you.
Your elder brother asked Mrs.
Daniel to deliver something to Miss Maureen at school, but Mrs.
Daniel acted rudely and even lied.
Driven by anger, your brother fired her.”
“My elder brother?”
Bianca couldn’t believe what she was hearing.
“But my elder brother knows that Mrs.
Daniel and I are very close.
She’s really nice to me, even if she made a small mistake, she shouldn’t…”
The chauffeur did not dare to interrupt.
They all shared the same sentiment, but after Oliver’s display of anger yesterday, they felt it might be better not to side with Mrs.Daniel.
Bianca received no response, a bad omen stirring in her heart.
Why would big brother dismiss the person who has always been closest to her over a trivial matter concerning Maureen?
In the past, she had been the most important person in her big brother’s heart.
The sound of a car braking resonated from outside.
With reddened eyes and a pale face, Bianca walked to the door.
Upon seeing Oliver disembarking from his car, her bottled up feelings of being wronged could no longer be contained.
Maureen had become the school beauty, her big brother had failed to pick her up twice in a row, and Mrs.
Daniel was inexplicably fired.
She rushed towards him without changing her footwear and plunged into the embrace of Oliver.
The driver and Chris were hardly phased by the scene.
Chris originally wanted to charge over and grasp Oliver to inquire about Maureen’s matter, but ended up being beaten to it by Bianca, causing him to frown slightly in discontent.
Comparing the two lately, he was increasingly recognizing the merits of Maureen—she could cook delicious meals, accompany him in playing video games, and even raise cats with him.
As for Bianca, aside from playing with him in their younger years, she had been following their big brother around ever since they grew up.
Sometimes, Chris would hazily realize that in this respect, indeed, it seemed only he and Maureen were family— No one else in the family was allergic to cats and peanuts.
Oliver opened his arms, feeling helpless as Bianca leaped into them, his tone involuntarily softened,
“What’s wrong?
Who bullied you?”
Upon hearing the tender tone of her big brother, Bianca’s heart finally settled, tears of grievance trickling down her cheeks, she rubbed her head against him,
“Why did you fire Mrs.
Daniel?
Answer me!”
Usually gentle and generous, Bianca reserves this slightly coquettish tone only for Oliver.
Before, Oliver had been accustomed to this, but at this moment, he abruptly recollected the words of Maureen,
“Wishing you and Bianca eternal happiness.”
What did she mean by that?
Did Maureen feel that he has feelings for Bianca?
Or perhaps Bianca had feelings for him?
However, in his eyes, Bianca has always been his sister, and never once have he entertained any inappropriate thoughts for her.
Impossible…
was Maureen overthinking things?
However, Oliver suddenly noticed the tone of Bianca’s voice and her flirtatious movements in his arms.
“Big brother, can I come to your room tonight, just like when we were kids?”
Oliver’s face suddenly changed.
Could it be possible that Bianca feels that way towards him?
That’s unacceptable.
Oliver’s face changed again.
Had it not been for Maureen’s reminder today, he might have let their feelings evolve naturally.
However, his words, like a bothersome fishbone, had embedded in his mind.
He couldn’t knowingly allow Bianca to continue feeling this way towards him.
Just as Bianca was about to continue her lament, she felt Oliver harshly pull away from her, his expression evasive as he briskly walked towards the stairs.
“You are grown up now.
Stop crying over these trivial things and sleep in your own room.”
Bianca was shocked to see her big brother intentionally create such distance between them, he just walked into the room, rejecting her.
It felt like a slap in the face, it put a sudden stop to what she was about to say, ending her flirting.
Witnessing this scene, Bianca’s blood turned cold.
With delayed shock, she realized something was off, and a wave of panic washed over her.
Oliver has never rejected her before.
Since when did this start…?
