Reboot: Mechanic

Chapter 337 Olivia Harrett

Vanessa was utterly speechless when she saw how fast Shi Tian was to point his finger at her and blamed her.

“What?” She raised an eyebrow and shouted. “It’s clearly the bane being you, Nathan.”

“Look at you speaking nonsense, Vanessa.” Shi Tian sighed softly and shook his head.

“Who was the one that got ambushed and nearly lost her life? And who was the one that barged into the Iron Sentinel shamelessly, causing us to face numerous obstacles?”

As Shi Tian rapidly raised so many questions that seemed to pinpoint Vanessa’s involvement in their plan as the true culprit of their unluckiness, Mary had no choice but to agree.

Back then, when she was merely training Shi Tian alone, other than the Night Intruder, there were no other problems as big as this.

“Oh come on, you seriously believe him?” Vanessa was aghast when she saw Mary wavering and seemed to be giving her the “it’s you” look at her.

Mary shrugged her shoulders in response. “Who knows, Nathan does have a point when he gets his reasons to back up his claim.”

But to be fair, she was just making a joke out of this nonsensical scenery that they kept encountering.

Luckily, this time, the trouble doesn’t seem to be coming after them, but on another person. Or more specifically, Theobold, who was currently being confronted by a spoiled woman.

A spoiled woman, who was even worse than Vanessa in terms of everything, Olivia Harrett.

It wasn’t difficult to be well-known when the said person was such a troublemaker or arrogant. In other words, an unlikable person tends to be remembered by most people.

“You have a lot of nerve, Theobold!” Olivia Harrett’s voice resounded throughout the camp.

“I don’t know who gave you the courage to denounce the very person that our Harrett Family appointed. If that’s the case, then are you going to detain me as well?” She added, seemingly provoking Theobold to make a move against her.

The tone was so loud that even Shi Tian, who originally had no intention of looking since Mary said the trouble wasn’t after them took a glance.

The voice was familiar to him as well.

“It’s her huh?” Shi Tian said in a dumbfounded tone once he realized who the snotty and bratty voice belonged to.

“You know her?” Vanessa looked at him in astonishment. Clearly, she didn’t expect someone like Shi Tian to know about her.

“Of course, not personally. I met her a few times back when I ordered takeout in the Horology Restaurant.” Shi Tian clarified himself.

“And there was an incident in one of the safeholds in District C.” As he said that, he glanced at Mary, who instantly understood his meaning.

Before all this mess had occurred, they were indeed occupying the safehold reserved area at District C. .

It was also during that time they had sent their greatest regards to Heaven’s Mecha. Coincidentally, when the explosion occurred due to the Heaven’s Mecha incompetence mechanic, Olivia Harrett happened to be present at the scene.

Thus, it could be said that they had dealt with Olivia Harrett in the past, albeit indirectly and unintentionally.

“I see… maybe it was you that’s the unlucky one since you met her multiple times.” Vanessa rubbed her chin and said, pinning the blame back on Shi Tian.

Shi Tian rolled his eyes, seemingly exhausted to even argue with her further. If he wanted to, then there was more reason he could reverse the situation against her, but he was better than that.

Instead of wasting time arguing with her, he decided to just let her have the feeling of gloat– you know how it is, women.

As Vanessa was feeling proud, believing to have stumped Shi Tian, the two of them were more focused on the current scene ahead of them.

Olivia Harret could be considered an unexpected variable in Theobold’s scheme, having been put in a difficult spot right now.

Military commanders?

That kind of rank might have been someone powerful and authoritative to the common folks but for people like Olivia Harrett. They were merely a bit better than ants.

Could Theobold outright attempt to pull a similar scheme against Olivia Harrett as he did to Damon?

The answer, whether it was long or short, was impossible.

Not to mention, if Theobold dared to use the Hill Family stamp of approval, it was equivalent to announcing a war among the Five Families.

His backer would definitely not support him and be quick to throw him under the bus in that case.

“Looks like Commander Phoebe is already there trying to diffuse the situation.” Shi Tian calmly said when he noticed Phoebe standing in between the two.

“Indeed, but I doubt she could do much either,” Mary said solemnly. The only possible way for someone to suppress her at this point was if another heir or someone of higher status than Olivia Harrett showed up.

However, the chances of that happening seemed extremely slim.

While Shi Tian and Mary were helpless at the situation, Vanessa suddenly stretched her arms and smirked coldly, “Let me handle this.”

Without even waiting for them to give a response, Vanessa swiftly exited the Iron Sentinel and proceeded to advance forward to the scene where Olivia Harrett was flexing her authority.

“She really just went ahead??” Shi Tian was stunned when he saw how nimble and quick Vanessa was.

She had just said she would handle the situation, and the next moment, she was already up ahead, almost nearing the tense atmosphere.

The atmosphere was palpable, with Olivia Harrett practically parading around and showing her domineering side.

“Why are you suddenly a mute now, Commander Theobold?” Olivia Harrett asked sarcastically.

“I was sure you love running your mouth and defending yourself. So what’s the matter now?” She pressured again, clearly wanting Theobold to make a mistake so that she could capitalize on it.

The other spectators merely kept quiet and watched the scene with anticipation. They were enjoying Theobold’s plight and wondered how the situation would resolve itself.
