In the meeting room, there was a
Up of elites in suits and leather shoes in front of Daniel A Tewod them were shareholders and elders of the company.
However, Daniel had no intention of hiding anything. He turned his chair and picked up the call. “Olivia His voice was low and mellow.
It had been a long time since he last saw Olivia. Daniel missed her so much that he subconsciously lowered his tone when he spoke.
“How is it? Still busy? Olivia asked him.
“Yes” Daniel nodded heavily, not hiding his embarrassment at all.
Just like that year at the bottom of the cliff, he relied on her every moment and wanted to see her the moment he opened his eyes. He would not hide anything from her.
Daniel could not help but want to wheedle and ask for a hug. He had an aggrieved tone as he said, “The company’s development hasn’t been going well recently.”
Daniel did not want to compete in the Internet market. The big shots of the business world had divided the industries that could be integrated into the Internet amongst them, and their tentacles had already begun to reach out to vegetable vendors.
Daniel felt embarrassed. He wanted to get into a high–tech industry.
However, some of the company’s internal members did not agree. They had benefited from the Internet and experienced instant wealth. Their net worth had grown by several millions of dollars overnight They had lost their motivation to improve and only wanted to monopolize the industry so that they
ould keep the money flowing in. They were unwilling to expand into high–tech industries and focus on
esearch.
The shareholders sitting in front of Daniel were all members of the Sullivan family. They frowned when. saw Daniel taking the call as if no one was around and looked at each other with worry in their eyes. specially Thomas Sullivan. He had been very supportive when Daniel and Olivia got engaged. After all, livia had a good background. Not only was she the head of the Smith family, but she was also a young
dentist.
was one of the best, be it in terms of her family background or her personal qualities.
ren as the two of them spent more and more time together, the dissatisfaction in Thomas’s heart creased day by day.
all because Daniel focused too much on Olivia.
ot only did he care about her day–to–day life, but he also didn’t hide anything about his work from her. somas felt that this was too dangerous.
didn’t matter if a man was a playboy or not, but it would not be good if he was bewitched by a beauty. d lost his mind.
ina told Daniel about what happened during the day. She felt that some of the machines at the Smith nily’s hospital were old and wanted to replace them with a new batch.
need an investment?” There was joy in Daniel’s voice. “It just so happens that I have a foundation it donates to hospital. I’ll donate a batch of equipment to you. I won’t have to call a meeting if the ue of the equipment is below 20 million dollars. I can approve it alone.”
omas subconsciously tightened his grip on his cup as soon as Daniel finished speaking. His
satisfaction with Olivia increased.
thought. What nonsense! They aren’t even married yet, and she’s already asking for so much money.
nel had already invested a sum of money into the entertainment industry a while ago, but she’s Ing for another sum of money today. Does she think that the Sullivan family is an ATM?*
The corners of Olivia’s lips curled up, and there was a sparkle in her eyes. “Which direction do you want the company to develop in? Is it still the internet?”
Daniel nodded. “That’s right. I want to engage in some technological innovation. I don’t want to rely on capital operations to monopolize the industry anymore. However, scientific research takes too long, and I will have to form a new team. It’s not easy to find talents,”
Olivia held her chin. “Since you’re donating to me, I can recommend talents to you.”
“Really?” Daniel’s eyes lit up. He even turned his head to look at the people in the room. He placed his index finger on his lips and shushed them, signaling them to be quiet. Then, he said, “Thank you so much, Olivia.”
The man’s voice was still low, but his tone was quite pleasant. It was like a cello, gently strumming and disturbing her heart.
Daniel and Andrew gave Olivia a similar feeling. Their emotions were passionate and pure, with a little cunning.
Olivia could not help but feel a soft, moving, and indescribable emotion in her heart.
Olivia was still in a daze even a long time after she hung up. Her eyes were shining with happiness. Coincidentally, someone knocked on the door. Olivia walked over to open the door.
The moment she opened it, she saw Alexander and Damian.
Olivia was still feeling the same emotions as before. The light in her eyes had yet to dim.
Alexander was stunned by the light in Olivia’s eyes. He sneered in his heart and thought, “Is she that happy to see me?
“Women really don’t mean what they say.
“She had been acting cold toward me downstairs just now, but in the blink of an eye, she’s looking at me with sparkling eyes. Could it be that she had been playing hard to get just now?”
“What’s the matter?” Olivia was in a good mood today, so even Alexander looked much more pleasing to the eye. Unlike her usual cold and distant attitude, she was much gentler now.
Alexander raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw this. His long and narrow eyes flashed past Olivia, and he suddenly wanted to laugh.
He thought, “This woman must have fallen for me!
‘On the one hand, she acted cold and distant, but on the other hand, she cannot help but be happy when :he sees me.
A person’s eyes cannot deceive others. Her eyes are sparkling and radiant when she looks at me.” Damian said, “Ms. Taylor, I’m sorry to disturb you so late at night. Mr. Alexander is still having a seadache. I’m here to ask if you have any painkillers.”
Yeah.” Olivia nodded and called out to Elena.
lena ran over with a bottle of painkillers.
Jamian took the painkillers from Elena and asked, “Can you get us a glass of water so Mr. Alexander can ake the medicine?”
Jena turned to look at Olivia.
Olivia nodded.
fter getting permission, Damian quickly helped Alexander into the house and let him sit on the sofa. hen, he fiddled with the medicine bottle to check the dosage.
lena took a bottle of water from the fridge.
lexander took the bottled water and took a pill.
e frowned after taking the medicine. Then, as if he felt that it was not enough, he snatched the edicine bottle from Damian’s hand and poured out more than ten pills. He ate them all in one go.

Elena was terrified.
These were painkillers that numbed the nerves. A person could die if they took too many at once. “Hurry up and spit it out. You can’t take so many pills at once,” Elena stomped her feet anxiously and turned to Olivia. “Miss Taylor, come quickly. Mr. Grant has taken a lot of painkillers.”
Olivia was leaning on the sofa at the side. She looked up with a probing gaze when she heard Elena, but she had no intention of coming over,
Damian was a little nervous, and his palms were covered in sweat.
He had changed the medicine in the bottle just now. Alexander had not taken painkillers at all, but milk
tablets.
This was a plan that the relationship team had come up with.
Women were soft–hearted and had a maternal mentality. They would unconsciously sympathize with the weak, especially when a strong man revealed his weak side. They would be easily moved by that.
Any woman would feel heartache and panic when a handsome and powerful man showed weakness and took half a bottle’s worth of painkillers in front of her.
Olivia would definitely step forward to examine Alexander’s condition.
This was what the relationship team deduced. However, Olivia did not step forward at all. She only glanced at them from afar and pointed at the door. “You can leave after taking the medicine.”
Damian’s eyes widened in shock as he thought, “How could this be?”
Alexander tugged at Damian, grabbed his arm, and walked out.
At the door, Damian immediately complained, “What kind of lousy relationship team is this? They aren’t accurate at all!”
Alexander did not react. Damian could not see his expression clearly in the darkness.
Damian was about to ask Alexander what to do when Alexander’s low and deep laughter suddenly rang in
his ears.
It sounded wanton and happy.
Damian was confused. The plan had clearly failed, so why was Alexander still smiling so happily?
Alexander glanced at Damian and explained, “She saw that you changed the medicine. That’s why she’s ndifferent.”
Olivia’s gaze had been fixed on them from the moment they entered the door. Her eyes had not moved way from them for a moment. She must have been focused on observing them. How could she not totice that Damian had changed the medicine?
lexander clicked his tongue and felt that Olivia was getting more and more interesting. She was clearly ttracted to him and paid attention to him at all times, yet she still pretended to be cold and aloof. It was
teresting to him.

Winona originally wanted to wait for Daniel to come out of the meeting, but the act of Ellis sending a call into the room made her suddenly lose her courage.
She bit her lower lip hard, her face pale.
She couldn’t bear to wait outside the conference room and left in a daze.
Outside the company, Winona was at a loss and didn’t know where to go.
At this moment, a black Bentley drove over and stopped beside her.
Winona frowned. Just as she was curious about who it was, the car window rolled down, revealing Margaret’s indifferent face.
“Get in,” she said flatly
Winona heaved a sigh of relief and quickly got into the car.
The warmth in the car dispelled the cold around Winona’s body. She turned to Margaret and asked curiously, “Why are you here?”
She thought. “Did she know that I would come out early?”
Margaret glanced at her and said coldly, “I didn’t know that you would come out early. However, I would have called you if you didn’t come out early.
Why is that?” Winona muttered.
Margaret took a deep breath and glanced at Winona coldly. She silently cursed Winona’s stupidity. Margaret felt frustrated when she thought about how this stupid woman had actually been with Daniel efore, as well as how she had to help her get together with Daniel now.
he was clearly the smartest and most understanding of Daniel’s feelings, but she always had to watch im be with women who only had beauty but no brains.
Was it just because I wasn’t beautiful enough?” she thought.
Largaret turned to look at the car window. Her face was reflected in the car window.
he had thin eyebrows and eyes. Her nose bridge was not high enough, and her lips were not red enough. be looked extremely ordinary. Nothing about her appearance stood out.
argaret sneered, and a look of self–mockery flashed across her eyes. Then, she asked Winona, “Your ard such important news about Daniel and Olivia from me, but all you want to do with the formation is threaten Daniel?”
er tone was filled with disdain.
inona was not stupid. She could hear it.
spleased, she crossed her arms over her chest and shot back, “Don’t tell me you have a better idea?” aring this, Margaret glanced at Winona again. She thought to herself that she must have been dumb en she was a teenager. She actually thought that Winona was a goddess in college.
irgaret tapped her fingertips on the steering wheel. The car drove quickly and steadily as Margaret wly pointed out the loophole in Winona’s idea. “If you threaten Daniel directly, not only will you Jose me, but you will also make him wary. He might be threatened by you for some time because he’s itious of you, but it won’t last long. He will soon come up with a countermeasure.
hat you do will not separate the two of them at all. Instead, it will deepen their relationship!”
en what do you think we should do?” Winona was very distressed. She had always been simple and
ect.
ially, she had wanted to get rid of Olivia directly at the club, but she didn’t succeed. Then, it no longer ame appropriate for her to make a move on Olivia after she realized that Olivia was the candidate for ig Alexander’s wife. Instead, she wanted to surpass Olivia and let Daniel see how good she was.

In the end, she failed spectacularly.
Olivia was Sketcherl
At this point, Winona had no other choice. She could only think of threatening Daniel with what happened that year.
Impatience flashed in Margaret’s eyes. She did not expect Winona to be this thumb.
However, no matter how impatient she was, Margaret had to suppress her emotions. “If we want to completely separate Olivia and Daniel, the best way to do that is through Andrew Sullivan.”
Why is it through Andrew? Could it be that you want me to please Andrew and make him like me?” Winona blinked. She was not very willing.
Margaret was speechless. After a while, she said, “No, I’m saying that the breakthrough lies with Andrew. I’m not asking you to please him. I have two methods here. Which one do you want to use?”
Winona frowned. Tell me all of them.
Margaret looked straight ahead. She drove very steadily and never sped. She was a model citizen, but her tone was extremely vicious. “The first method is a little rougher. Doesn’t the Grant family have a lot of medicine? Just feed Andrew a little, and you can then use him to control Daniel. Moreover, I can be a spy and stay by Daniel’s side to send you news.”
Winona touched the goosebumps on her arms. She felt that this method was a little vicious and didn’t want to use it.
Although she was ruthless and had thought of sending Andrew away, she had never thought of killing
him.
Seeing that Winona didn’t say anything, Margaret knew that she wasn’t satisfied with this method. She slowly told Winona the second method, “The second method is a little complicated. It requires a little bit of planning.”
“Huh?” Winona looked up.
Margaret looked straight ahead and said calmly. “We will have to fulfill three conditions. The first is to find a way to sow discord between Daniel and Olivia. It doesn’t need to be much. It just needs to make the two of them suspect something. The second is that Olivia must really have lost her memory and doesn’t know that Andrew is her biological child. The third is to create a perfect situation.”
Winona was a little tempted and listened carefully. “What situation?”
Margaret said, “A situation where they have to choose between Andrew and Isaac…
Speaking of this, Margaret turned to Winona and said faintly, “If Andrew and Isaac fainted at the same time, who do you think Olivia will save now that she only has one pill?”
Winona’s heart skipped a beat. Her insides felt cold. For a moment, she did not dare to look directly into Margaret’s eyes.
Margaret continued, “No
atter who Olivia chooses to save, it will be over between her and Daniel. It’s mpossible for them to be together. If she chooses to save Isaac and finds out later that Andrew is her biological son and that she killed her biological child, what do you think she will do? Will she be able to orgive herself?
If she chose to save Andrew, I would find a way to involve Daniel in the situation. I will get Daniel the nedicine and have him feed it to Andrew. This way, even if Olivia was very rational, she would think that Janiel had harmed Isaac.
When that time comes, if she finds out that Andrew is her child, she will fall into endless self–blame. It’ll se because of her flesh and blood that her grandfather died.”
Winona didn’t dare to continue listening.
This was too ruthless.
The turned to look at Margaret’s side profile and felt a chill run down her spine.
the thought, “Is she still human? She must be a devill”

“That being said,” Margaret suddenly added with a smile, Actually, there’s another way. Take Andrew away and let Olivia adopt a child herself. Then, get Andrew to fall out with that child and set Olivia personally hurt Andrew…”
“Stop!” Winona couldn’t listen anymore, “Stop it, this is too vicious.”
up to
“Vicious?” Margaret sneered. “Isn’t this how you treat Amelia and Olivia? You call it a trial when you do it, but why is it vicious when I’m the one suggesting it?”
Winona didn’t say anything. After a while, she said coldly, “I know you’re unhappy. You clearly like Daniel, but you have to watch me be with him. Even so, don’t take your anger out on me. If you don’t want to help, then forget it. I didn’t beg you.”
Margaret did not say anything.
Winona lowered her head and pinched her fingers. She suddenly said, “I will listen to you if you are willing to help me. You love Daniel so much. You won’t want the Grant family to be angry at him, right?” Margaret suddenly felt depressed. She slammed the steering wheel and finally agreed. “Okay, do as I say.”

Margaret began to advise Winona’s future behavior. She told her not to look for Daniel directly, but to go around him and approach his parents first. She had to get in touch with Mrs. Sullivan first. Winona did not go home. Instead, she went to an apartment in the city center with Margaret. She sat on the sofa and frowned in confusion. “Why do we have to contact Mrs. Sullivan first?” Winona didn’t like to please others.
Margaret glanced at her and explained coldly, “An old person will have especially extreme opinions and is rather stubborn. As long as you get her to fancy you before you tell her something bad about Olivia, she will definitely become dissatisfied with Olivia over time. She might even think that Olivia will bully Andrew,”
It sounded like a good idea.
Winona nodded, but she quickly frowned again. “But how should I get her to fancy me?” She had no experience in currying favor with others.
“I’ll help you with that,” Margaret said.
Of the four great families in Evervale, the Turner family and the Sullivan family were long–time friends. Margaret often went to the Sullivan family when she was young, and Mrs. Sullivan liked her very much. She knew very well how to please her elders.
A woman of Mrs. Sullivan’s age cared mostly about three things: maintaining her health, a grandchild, and her feelings of loneliness.
Winona would be able to quickly conquer Mrs. Sullivan if she visited and chatted with her often. Margaret talked about her experience. Winona listened attentively and nodded as she listened. She felt that Margaret had a way with old ladies.
Then should I visit her directly with a gift?” Winona asked excitedly.
Margaret shook her head. ‘No, we have to find an opportunity.”
She thought for a moment and said, “Andrew gets dismissed from kindergarten at four in the afternoon every day, and the Sullivan family’s driver picks him up from school. They will pass by Ranker Road driving from the kindergarten to the Sullivan family’s old residence. That road has the worst traffic. I will arrange for a few cars to bump into Andrew’s car and argue with the driver. Then, you will come out at the right time to help comfort the frightened Andrew.”
“This is good, this is good. Winona was very satisfied with appearing in this manner.
Margaret acted quickly. She immediately arranged for someone to deliberately hit Andrew’s car. The three people Margaret got were all experienced drivers. They observed Andrew’s car from three directions.
One of them was very puzzled when he saw the model of the car. He complained to the other two through the walkie–talkie, ‘Do you see that? The Sullivan family actually drives a domestic car. That is a Ford, right? It probably only costs 40 to 50 thousand dollars. To think he’s the richest man in the country. How stingy.”
The other two also laughed, their expressions full of mockery.
They had seen many rich people driving Mercedes–Benzs, BMWs, Audis, and even Bentleys and Rolls–Royces. These were all luxury cars worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, some even millions. They had never seen anyone drive a domestically produced car, and a low–end one at that.
“How frugal.” The bald man among the three sighed.
The blonde one added, “Maybe that’s how the richest man saves his money,”
With that, the three of them laughed.

That’s enough.” The burly man was the leader of the three. When he saw that they were about to close in on the Sullivan family’s car, he quickly told the other two to calm down. “Blondie, go to the front and block his car. Baldy, go to the left and block that lane. I’ll chase after him from behind.”
The burly man arranged everything in an orderly manner. Then, he saw an opportunity and accelerated toward the car in front of him.
With a bang, the bumper in front of his car became bent and deeply dented.
However, the car in front was not damaged at all. The paint on the car wasn’t even chipped.
The burly man was dumbfounded as he thought, “Is the car in front a tank? Since when did domestically produced cars have such good quality?”
In the car, Andrew felt something touch the car. It was a light thud. He turned around curiously and
asked Eugene, “Mr. Brown, what happened just now? Was it a bumper car?”
Eugene was the captain of a special forces team and had just been assigned here a few days ago.
Olivia was worried about Andrew. The Grant family had always been shameless. She was afraid that they would attack Andrew, so she asked Eugene to come over early.
Eugene nodded. “Yes, it’s a bumper car.”
Andrew clapped his hands. “It’s fun.”
Seeing that the tailgate was unsuccessful and the burly man’s car was completely destroyed, Baldy on the left felt pressured and wanted to overtake the Sullivan family sedan and cut their lane off.
However, the strange thing was that the Sullivan family’s driver was surprisingly skilled. He turned the car lightly and dodged the bald man’s car, causing it to knock down a Volkswagen beside him.
Baldy slapped the steering wheel angrily.
Now, only Blondie was left. However, he had already rushed to the front and could not turn around at all. The three of them watched helplessly as the Sullivan family car left. Not only were the three of them utterly defeated, but two of their cars were also scrapped.
Fuck!
The three of them were furious.
“No!” He could not fail. The burly man gritted his teeth. He had confidently promised his boss that he would get the job done. What would become of his reputation if he did not succeed?
The burly man spat and rubbed his hands. He gripped the steering wheel tightly, stepped on the accelerator, and rushed toward the Ford in front.
Margaret stayed in the villa and waited for the news. Although she had been overseas all these years, she had not thrown away her connections in the country. She had always remained in contact.
This time, the burly man and the other two were the subordinates of a local mafia boss, Coolio. Margaret was smart and calm. She had been involved in the family business in her teens and was very experienced. She held a lot of authority in the Turner family. Otherwise, Daniel would not have thought of getting engaged to her back then.
She had been overseas for many years. While expanding the Turner family’s business overseas, she had also been secretly observing the situation back home. She had also secretly maintained the connections she had made back then.
Margaret sat on the sofa and looked up at the time. She felt that they should have succeeded by now. Why hadn’t Winona or Coolio called her?
It was too strange.
Margaret moved her fingers. She wanted to call Winona, but she was afraid of alerting the enemy, so she could only keep waiting.
Some time passed. Margaret had been deep in thought. When she unintentionally looked up, it was already 6 p.m.

Two hours had passed.
After thinking for a while, Margaret took out her phone and called Winona’s assistant, Clarissa. The call was quickly connected. “Hello, are you the patient’s family? This is Evervale Hospital. “Patient?” Margaret was dumbfounded. She quick What in the world happened?”
sat up straight and asked anxiously, “What happened?
“Hello, the patient, Clarissa Manson, was in a car accident and is currently in the operating theater-” Margaret interrupted the person on the other end before he could finish, “Where’s Winona? Where is she
“Winona Manson is also in surgery. Please rush to Evervale Hospital.”
“What the hell happened?” Margaret thought.
She held her forehead and drove to the hospital immediately.
At the hospital, Winona and Clarissa had already finished their surgery. Both of them were seriously injured, but their lives were not in danger. However, they had broken two of their ribs and had to rest in bed.
“How did this happen?” When she arrived at the hospital, Margaret couldn’t believe it when she saw Winona wrapped up like a mummy.
“Didn’t she go to mediate the conflict between drivers? Why did she get herself involved?” Margaret thought.
Winona was furious when she saw Margaret. “What kind of stupid idea did you come up with? You almost killed mel”
It was only after Clarissa explained that Margaret knew what was going on.
It turned out that the burly man had wanted to hit the Ford again when he rushed forward. However, the driver of the Ford was obviously an experienced driver. He had superb driving skills and easily dodged
the car.
Winona, who was watching from the side, got anxious and ordered Clarissa to drive up and intercept the
Ford.
Unexpectedly, they charged too quickly and collided with the Ford.
Then, the two of them ended up like this.
“You hit Andrew’s car?” Margaret was shocked.
Winona and Clarissa were so badly injured despite being adults. This meant that Andrew, a child, must have been even more seriously injured.
“Was Andrew also injured and hospitalized?” Margaret was nervous.
Coincidentally, a nurse came in to change their dressing. Margaret quickly asked her about Andrew. The nurse shook her head. “There were only two patients in this car accident, Winona and Clarissa. No one else was injured.”

Olivia originally wanted to stay in Layfield for a longer time. She also wanted to veut up the bed in hide her identity after taking over the Capitol Research Institute, suahe rarely wanted Argon or the years. They had always been in contact only by phone
Now that she had finally gained a foothold in the institute, she no longer needed in hande her blwy Thus, she wanted to pay Augus a visit.
Unexpectedly, she suddenly received news that something had happened to Andrew
Olivia tightened her jaw, and her expression became cold and terrifying she usbod How Adw Eugene replied, “Miss Taylor, don’t worry. The car is custom–made. Andrew is me. He jus de frightened.”
Olivia nodded and instructed Elena, “Pack your things. We’re going back in Everyale?
Elena moved very quickly, and it did not take long for her to pack up her things Tym went down in
start the car.
In the opposite room, Damian had been observing the situation downstairs though the window 1 sew movement there, which he quickly reported to Alexander. “Mr. Alexander, Mc Taylors to be leaving with her group of people.”
Alexander leaned against the sofa with his legs crossed. There was a hint of indifference in his cold expression.
He sneered when he heard what Damian said.
He thought, “She’s just playing hard to get. Why would Olivia leave if she knows that live opposite here She has to stay and think of ways to get along with me
Damian was very anxious when he turned around and saw Alexander’s nonchalant expression. “Mr Alexander, it looks like Ms. Taylor is leaving Laylield. Are we going to follow her?”
“There’s no need.” Alexander waved his hand with a confident expression. “She’ll get too song if we follow her. She’s just putting on such a show to lure me over.”
Seeing that Damian was still worried, Alexander comforted him, “Don’t worry, she’ll be back tonight I’ll wait for her here.”
Alexander’s analysis was well–founded and not a figment of his imagination. He had seen Oliva boy many gifts yesterday and was preparing to visit some of her elders in Layheld. How could she leave quickly?
More importantly, he was still here.
Since Olivia was interested in him, she would not leave so easily.
Alexander was confident..
He had received many love letters ever since he was a teenager. The letters he received could probably bill the trunks of several cars.
Olivia returned very quickly. In the old residence, Andrew was already asleep. He was pouting and had his fists clenched.
Mrs. Sullivan followed her and said gently, “It’s nothing serious. He was just frightened. He fell asleep. after I coaxed him for a while.”
Olivia nodded, tucked Andrew in, and left the room.
In the living room, Mrs. Sullivan roughly explained what had happened. “The Manson family’s duver wasn’t that great at driving. She accidentally stepped on the brakes and crashed into car car. Fortunately, Andrew was not injured.”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Sullivan frowned and continued, “However, heard that the other party was seriously injured and broke two of her ribs. She’s currently in the hospital Although the Manson family

is fully responsible for this accident, she was injured after all. I think it’s better to forget about it and settle it privately. I’ll visit her in two days.”
“I’ll go.” Olivia helped Mrs. Sullivan sit down. Her tone was calm, and the expression on her face made it difficult to read her thoughts. “I’ll head over later.”
“Alright.” Mrs. Sullivan nodded.
Evervale Hospital was not far from the Sullivan family. It was less than half an hour’s drive away. Winona had already changed her ward. She was put in the same ward as Clarissa after the surgery, but she changed into a single room upstairs when her parents arrived.
They were talking.
“Why did
ווסע
hit the Sullivan family’s car?” the head of the Manson family, Jonny Manson, said with a frown. There was a dashcam on the car. He had just finished watching the video and could clearly hear Winona’s voice.
She was the one who directed Clarissa to hit the car Andrew was in.
Winona pouted. “I didn’t do it on purpose. It’s Clarissa’s bad driving skills. I just wanted to stop Andrew. Jonny was furious. “Why are you so impulsive? It’s so dangerous. Fortunately, Andrew Sullivan is fine. Otherwise, our families would have become enemies.”
“Alright, alright, stop talking. She’s still injured.” Victoria complained to Jonny. In her opinion, her daughter had suffered a lot. She had suffered such a serious injury, yet Jonny didn’t comfort her as her father. Instead, he actually reprimanded her.
“Keep quiet, woman.” Jonny glared at Victoria, then turned to Winona and asked, “Tell me the truth. Is Daniel not treating you well? Are there no feelings between the two of you?”
Winona was silent. After a while, under her father’s gaze, she reluctantly said, “Our relationship has grown distant, but it’s still there. I wanted to establish a connection with Andrew and develop a good relationship with him. Daniel is only with Olivia because Andrew likes her.”
Before she could finish her sentence, Jonny reprimanded her, “Fool! My daughter doesn’t need to please
others.”
Victoria also looked at Winona disapprovingly. “It’s not a bad thing if you want to develop a connection. with Andrew. After all, Andrew will be your child if you really get together with Daniel in the future. However, the method you used is wrong.”
“Morn.” Winona’s eyes were wet.
Victoria sighed. “To your father and I, your life is the most precious thing. Nothing else can compare to it. How could you not care about your own safety and hit Andrew’s car? It doesn’t matter if he’s injured or dead. The key is you. Your father and I will be heartbroken even if you’ve scraped yourself, let alone such a serious injury.
Jonny was also very helpless. “Winona, you can tell me directly if you really like Daniel. Olivia is just a little girl. She’s not worth mentioning at all. I’m not dealing with her only because Mr. Alexander is interested in her this time.”
Speaking of this, Jonny sighed. “Since you really can’t tolerate her, I will think of a way to deal with her for you.
“What way? Dad, you have a way?” Winona was excited.
Seeing this, Jonny frowned. “It’s all our fault for spoiling you. Even a little girl can make you panic”
Jonny did not think that Olivia was that powerful. He did not take her seriously at all.
However, he could not tolerate her anymore now that she had upset his precious daughter.
Jonny had an indifferent expression. It was as if Olivin was just a kitten or a puppy that was not worth mentioning. He could easily decide her life and death.
“Didn’t you say that Olivia is “Sketcher” and that she’s great at drawing?” Jonny said. “I will hold a public competition for you to promote you. Both you and “Sketcher” will participate. I will let you crush her.”

Art was very subjective, especially when it came to drawing. At a certain level, it became very difficult to distinguish good from bad. As long as Winona changed her technique slightly from drawing with pure technique to drawing with intention, she could suppress Olivia.
“Will Olivia participate?” Winona frowned.
Jonny smiled confidently when he heard his daughter’s question. “She wouldn’t dare to not participate. After saying that, seeing that his daughter was still confused, Jonny explained. “I will open a higher–end private hospital opposite the Smith family’s hospital and completely crush the Smith family’s hospital. The Smith family’s hospital will go bankrupt If she doesn’t come to participate in the competition.” “Really?” Winona was elated, but she was still a little worried. “You’re going through so much trouble for me. I feel uncomfortable and guilty.”
“Silly girl, it’s not just for you.” Jonny laughed loudly. It’s because the Grant family wants to suppress the Smith family. Olivia is disobedient, and the Smith family is really useless. Instead of keeping them around, it’s better to completely destroy them. First Elder has already said that we should think of a way to get as large of a share of the pie as we can. As for the Smuth family’s connections. Tom Grant will have them.”
They were going to split the Smith family up. Winona was ecstatic.

Chapter 335
In the ward, the Manson family were talking when they heard three polite knocks on the door. “Who can it be?” Jonny thought.
He frowned. Just as he was about to speak, the door opened.
A young woman entered. Her round face was very likable, but she had a cold expression. Then, two prople who looked like bodyguards entered the ward.
Jonny’s intuition told him that the other party did not come with good intentions. Just as he was about to call the bodyguards guarding outside to come in, he saw a slender and familiar figure approaching. It was Olivial
Jonny shook his head, feeling a little stunned.
After Olivia entered, the people behind her instantly closed the door to the ward.
She walked to the couch opposite the bed and swept a glance at the room.
For some reason, Victoria felt her heart skip a beat.
Just a moment ago, she had still been looking down on Olivia. Now that she saw her in person, Victoria immediately became nervous.
The feeling was inexplicable.
I was the same instinct as when a prey came across the king of the beasts. It was a fear that was etched nto the bones.
You… Victoria subconsciously jumped up and ran to Jonny’s side.
he thought that Olivia was going to hit her.
lowever, just as she moved, she saw Olivia sitting on the couch.
ictoria was dumbfounded.
o… Just now, Olivia just wanted to sit down and not hit me?‘ she thought.
Vhy are you here? You even brought so many people. Where are the bodyguards outside the door?”
nny scolded her from the moment he opened his mouth. “Did you attack them? How disrespectful. This
fore he could finish, Olivia blinked and raised her hand. “It’s too noisy.”
ne of the men who looked like a bodyguard, stepped forward and grabbed Jonny. In the next second,
ny’s chin was dislocated.
‘hat are you doing?” Fear flashed across Victoria’s eyes.
is Olivia gone crazy? She can’t possibly be thinking of killing us here, right? Victoria thought ntically.
here are the bodyguards? Where are my people?” Victoria’s face was pale as she rushed towards the >r. Before her hand could touch the handle, a man pushed her back and dislocated her chin too.
on seeing this, Elena cowered and was a little afraid.
via sensed it. She looked up at Elena and said, “Go out and wait for me. Stay with Tyson and the
ers. This is my private matter. It’s not appropriate for any of you to interfere in it.”
er all, they were provided by the country, so it was not appropriate to ask them to do anything against law. Therefore, the bodyguards brought in by Olivia were hired separately.
y were all mercenaries with blood on their hands.
r Elena left, Olivia crossed her legs. Her usually uncaring eyes revealed a bone–chilling coldness.

It was as if she would kill anyone who disagreed with her!.
Why did you touch Andrew?” Olivia looked up. This was the first time she had confronted Witiona In the past, no matter how many times the two of them met, Olivia never really looked at her. She did not care about Winona at all.
But now, Winona had touched the one person that was her sore spot.
The moment she found out that something had happened to Andrew, Olivia felt her heart skip a beat. Her anger scored sky–high and overwhelmed any other thoughts in her mind.
Fuck it. To hell with being the dean of the Capitol Research Institute. Why do I have to follow the rules. when lamako in a high position and others can do whatever they want?‘ she thought.
In her entire life, she had never asked for anything. Everything she said and did was for others. For the cake of the overall situation, she had done much, all in contribution to everyone. She had waited for so long just to protect the people she cared about.
She contemplated. Can it be that just because I keep a low profile and do not lash out ruthlessly, any. Tom, Dick, or Harry could bully me?”
Today, she would break her own rules once and do whatever she wanted.
Do you know who he is?” Olivia pointed at the man beside her. She looked at the Manson family and deliberately said slowly. “He’s an international fugitive. He’s wanted by several countries. What do you think about him killing your family of three here today?”
“You’ve gone crazy!” Winona could not believe it.
How dare the woman in front of me do this? How dare shel‘ Winona thought.
Extreme fear made Winona’s face turn pale. Her entire body trembled violently. She could not even care thout the wounds on her body.
All along, she always had the impression that Olivia had always been a cold and arrogant woman. Olivia lid not like to talk or attend gatherings. She lived in seclusion.
he thought it was pure luck that Olivia was able to get to where she was and became the head of the mith family. It was because Isaac had fallen too suddenly, coupled with the stupidity of Gillian
Olivia seemed to have never spoken coldly before. She had always been very methodical and reasonable uch a woman was clearly a typical science
how can she suddenly do something lus. She was a little shut–in.
o this?‘ Winona’s thoughts were frantic.
olivia, you’re crazy!” Winona panted heavily. Her voice was trembling. ‘Do you think you can escape if ou kill us?”
Of course.” Olivia chuckled. She looked at Winona as if she was looking at a naughty child. “It’s very fficult for you to get out of this, but it’s very easy for me.”
just want him to seriously injure you.” Olivia pointed at the man beside her with a sweet smile. “You ould know that my medical skills are very good, but you probably don’t know how good they are. I can Il you now.”
she spoke, Olivia extended three fingers. “I have three ways to injure you without anyone knowing he first is to let him seriously injure you. Then, I will do something to your internal organs. You won’t
, but you will wish you were dead. The second is that I can use silver needles to turn you into a getative state. The third is to use poison. Although the powerful medicines in the Smith family are kept the Grant family, there will still be traces left behind.
? What do you think? Don’t you think my medical skills are amazing?” Olivia smiled happily and lked up to Winona,
pressed her fingers on Winona’s wounds. “Does it hurt?”
nona was in so much pain that she gasped for air.
hy did you attack Andrew?”

Winona forced out, “The Sullivan family has already let it go. Why are you? Olivia increased her strength. “Who said that no one is pursuing the matter?” Winona closed her eyes. The pain was heart–wrenching, but the strange thing was, she did not feel faint despite the pain. Instead, her mind was very alert.
She gritted her teeth and looked at Olivia. “Mrs. Sullivan called and said that she won’t pursue the matter, and
Winona closed her eyes and continued, “The driver is my assistant, Clarissa. Even if you want to pursue the matter, you can’t put the blame on me.
“I know.” Olivia tilted her head. “That’s why I thought of a way myself. After knowing about this, I immediately contacted international mercenaries. The surveillance cameras in the hospital were also destroyed. How is it? Aren’t I incredibly capable?”
‘Capable my ass! She is the devill Olivia is the devil that has crawled out of hell!‘ Winona thought.
Winona was almost annihilated by fear, but her desire to live made her think quickly.
I must not die.
When she thought of this, Winona looked up. “Olivia, do you dare to compete with me?”
“Compete in what? The painting competition you mentioned to Jonny just now?”
She heard everything!
Winona was in despair. She felt utterly helpless in front of Olivia. There was no way she could escape.

Olivia’s hand was still pressed on Winona’s wound, making it impossible for her to dodge.
She looked at Olivia, who was looking down at her loftily.
Winona really felt that she would die here, that Olivia would really kill her.
Winona was in so much pain that her entire body was covered in cold sweat, but she did not dare to cry out in pain.
She had lived for more than 20 years and had been pursued and admired by everyone since she was young. Her life had always been smooth sailing.
She had never been in such a situation before.
For the first time, Winona felt afraid. The fear came from the bottom of her heart.
She felt that she was done for, completely done for.
However, something unexpected happened at this moment.
“I promise you, we’ll compete again. In public.”
Olivia actually agreed!
The fear in Winona’s eyes was replaced by surprise. She could not care less about the pain in her body. “You really want to compete with me?”
“Of course.” Olivia nodded. The corners of her lips curled up slightly. Her eyes were deep and unfathomable. “Isn’t this exactly what you want?”
“But… why?” Winona could not understand. ‘Didn’t she already hear their plan? Why did she agree?” she wondered.
Olivia lowered her eyes. There was a faint smile in her eyes as she said slowly, The Manson family will hold a national painting competition. The entire process will be open and transparent. We will compete fairly in front of the entire country.
“If you win, I won’t pursue the matter of you hurting Andrew. If you lose…
Olivia’s tone paused for a moment. Then, she suddenly bent down and looked into Winona’s eyes. She enunciated each word clearly, “If you lose, you will never paint again.
Winona was stunned. Before she could react, she looked up and met Olivia’s gaze. Only then did she realize the meaning of Olivia’s words.
‘She would never paint again! Olivia wants to destroy mel‘ Winona thought.
Winona had been painting all her life. Since she was young, painting had been integrated into her life and could not be separated.
For me to stop drawing, Olivia may as well let me diel‘ she thought,
Winona cowered for a moment. Then, she saw her parents, who had their jaws dislocated and were unable to speak. They were completely restrained by Olivia’s bodyguards. Winona mustered her courage again.
As long as they survived today and their parents‘ lives were not in danger, they would not have to be afraid of Olivia anymore.
So what if Olivia is Sketcher? It has been a few years since she drew, she thought. Moreover, Winona studied techniques and she might be comparable to her in terms of painting.
Winona was very confident in her painting skills.
More importantly, she still had her parents. Her father could completely control the outcome. Even if Olivia had Daniel, the richest man, behind her, she was not afraid.
Behind the Manson family was the Grant family, an incomparably powerful political influence.
She did not believe that Olivia could defeat her with such an advantage!
Billionaire’s Missing Darling
“Alright. It’s a deall Winona nodded.
When she heard this, Olivia slowly raised her eyelids and gestured for the bodyguards behind her to come forward. “Go and record her vow to never paint again if she loses.”
Winona’s expression changed. She did not expect Olivia to make a record of her vow
However, she had no choice but to bow her head to the situation. She could only make a wow on ca that if she lost the competition, she would never paint again.
“Done” Olivia admired the recording as she waved her hand for the bodyguards to let go of Jonny and
Victona.
“You know,” Olivia raised her eyebrows. Actually, I have an even simpler way to make you unable to ever hold a paintbrush.”
As she spoke, she walked to Winona’s side, pinched her slender and fair wrist, and gently pressed down Winona screamed in pain.
It hurts. It hurts so much. What happened to my hand?‘ she thought.
“This is nothing.” Olivia smiled. “You just can’t lift a paintbrush. I’ll give you a week to prepare for the competition. On the day of the competition, I’ll naturally heal your wrist. If you guys decide to play tricks, don’t blame me for not playing nice,
With that, she left with the bodyguards.
As soon as Olivia left, Jonny rushed out to call for help. Victoria called the doctor over to take a look at Winona’s hand..
At this moment, they realized how powerful Olivia was, They could only blame themselves careless and only brought two bodyguards with them, allowing Olivia to take advantage of the loophole
for being too in security.
Thinking of how Olivia had humiliated and ignored him just now, of how she didn’t even want to listen to him and immediately got someone to dislocate his chin, Jonny felt that he had been severely disrespected and wanted to kill Olivia!
She is such a bitch!” Jonny thought furiously.
The two bodyguards came over quickly and explained that a ruckus had broken out on their floor and that they had been swept away by the crowd.
Jonny was silent and did not pursue the issue with the bodyguards. Instead, he said with a dark expression, “Go and get the hospital’s surveillance footage. I want that little bitch Olivia to pay the price!” She actually brought so many people to the hospital. One of them was even an international fugitive. The hospital surveillance must have a record of it.
As long as I can get evidence that Olivia is involved with an international fugitive, I can destroy her! Jonny thought.
The bodyguard moved quickly and returned after a while. “The hospital said that the surveillance video is broken. They didn’t record anything.
Jonny slammed his fist into the wall.
He walked into the ward with a gloomy expression. There was a circle of doctors inside, and every one of then had a solemn expression.
When Victoria saw Jonny return, she immediately pounced on him and sobbed, “Jonny, our daughter’s hand is crippled.
“Her hand is crippled Jonny could barely believe his cars.
Jonny frowned. “What’s going on?”
The attending doctor replied. The case with Ms. Manson’s wrist is very special. It should be dislocated, but the strange thing is it can’t be pushed back no matter what. Even the best orthopedic specialist in our hospital can’t do anything.”
“Useless. Jonny coldly ordered, “Arrange for a transfer to another hospital.”
He did not believe that Olivia would be so powerful.
She was just trying to be mysterious. There were so many famous doctors in the world. He did not believe that they could not treat Winona’s hand.
After Winona was transferred to a private hospital, Jonny invited dozens of orthopedic specialists over, but none of them could cure Winona’s hand.
Jonny finally panicked and called Zelen. “Tell me the truth. How good is Olivia’s medical skills? Is she as good as Isaac?”
The question was too inexplicable. Zelen subconsciously frowned and thought for a moment before saying. I’m not sure about it exactly, but Olivia was already an assistant to Isaac in her teens and participated in major surgeries.”
The answer was too vague.
Jonny was not satisfied and continued to ask, “Ms. Zelen, please tell me the truth. How good is Olivia’s medical skills?”
“How would I know?” Zelen frowned. “I left the Smith family a long time ago, but Isaac often said that Olivia’s medical skills have already surpassed his.”
“Better than Isaac?” Jonny was shocked by hier answer.
Zelen shook her head. “It’s just praise from a grandfather to a granddaughter, so it doesn’t mean anything. However, I estimate that Olivia should have inherited at least 60% of Isaac’s ability.”
60% he thought incredulously.
onny rubbed his forehead. After a while, he suddenly ordered, “Go and prepare the competition.”
His daughter’s hand couldn’t wait. Jonny didn’t dare to bet on it.
On the other side, Olivia was painting in the studio. She had not touched her brush for a long time and ras a little rusty.
lena sat by her side. She couldn’t really understand. “Miss Taylor, why did you agree to the ompetition?”
livia was mixing the paints. As she did so, she said, “To make an example out of her.”

Although she had already decided to participate in the competition, Olivia did not spend much effort on panung She only practiced for two days before putting down her brush.
After that she would only ocasionally go to the studio to practice.
Bettany had othicially become Rose’s seventh student. After her wrist recovered, she moved to Rose’s residence and did not return often.
This was the tust time she had returned to the Smith family’s villa. She looked very lively.
Elena came out to pick her up. She observed her expression and was very happy. “Bettany, you look much
better
ttany covered her lace and looked relaxed. “Yes, it feels like I’ve been reborn. By the way, what is Olivia
Paming in the studio”
Tll go take a look” As she spoke, she ran towards the studio on the third floor. She stuck her head in and sled foolishly at Olivia. Olivia, can I come in?”
Olivia looked up. The sunlight cast a shadow under her eyelashes, making her look distant and cold. That changed when she saw Bettany. She smiled. “Come in.
Bettany leaned over and looked at the still life on the drawing board. She praised repeatedly, “Olivia, your painting is really good”
With that. Bettane took out the painting she brought this time and showed it to Olivia.
There was a hint of anticipation and complacency in her expression.
umed around and looked carefully for a moment before nodding. “You’ve improved a lot.”
Really Bettany was pleasantly surprised. “Mrs. Liebsig said that I’m very talented. As long as I persist in
inting I will definitely achieve much in the future.
Olivia nodded and did not say anything.
Bettany looked at Olivia’s expression. She bit her lip and suddenly said. “Olivia, I’m working very hard on ating Out of the 24 hours each day, other than eating and sleeping, I spend 16 hours painting. Tell me if I work so hard, when will I be able to catch up to you?”
Upon hearing this. Olivia’s hand that was holding the paintbrush paused. She looked up at Bettany and suddenly smiled. You want to compete with me!”
scratched her head and felt a little embarrassed. “Mrs. Liebsig said that you are the most talented among her students, but unfortunately, your focus is not on painting. She asked me to set you as my goal and work hard on my skills. As long as I surpass you. I can hold an art exhibition independently. “Thats not had” Olivia said. “It’s good to work hard, but don’t compare yourself to me.
Why Bettany frowned. Suddenly, she was a little unhappy. “Do you think that I can’t compare to you? Are you looking down on me?”
Olivia snorted and did not give Bettany any regard. She said directly. There are some things that don’t need to be said
Bettany face turned pale.
She had only said those words out of anger. She didn’t mean anything else by it. She didn’t expect Olivia to really look down on her
In an instant. Bettany felt as if she had been encased in ice. She felt cold from head to toe..
Her tone turned icy and her expression turned ugly. Since you look down on me, why did you recommend me to Mrs. Liebsig
Olivia turned around and looked at Bettany, whose eyes were red and about to cry. She sighed and finally
Billionaire’s Missing Darling
said, “I liked the Bettany I met in the small town who didn’t change even in the face of adversity. “But now, I look down on the Bettany who is eager for quick success and keeps comparing herself to
others
This sentence was like a blow to the head, instantly waking Bettany up.
During this period of time, she had indeed become frivolous. She was filled with arrogance. Just because she was taken in by a great teacher, she felt that she was amazing and had completely forgotten why she painted initially.
Bettany felt extremely ashamed. She said sincerely to Olivia, “Olivia, thank you for teaching me.”
Bettany opened the door to leave. She bumped into Daniel in the living room.
The man sat on the sofa, lazily holding a book in his hand. He looked nonchalant, but he emanated an intimidating aura.
Bettany’s heart skipped a beat and she immediately became timid.
Is this the richest man, Daniel?‘ she wondered.
The most outstanding man Bettany had seen in her life was Marcus. To be honest, although Marcus’s legs were injured, he was still a charming man.
Initially. Bettany also fantasized about living a good life with him.
However, Marcus was too terrifying. He did not respect her at all. It was as if she was just a plaything. He did not care about her and would beat and scold her at every turn.
Gradually, Bettany became afraid of him.
“Is it true that all men of high status in this world are so domineering, that they will look down loftily on everything?” she wondered.
Because of what happened with the Dillon family, Bettany was a little afraid of that kind of man.
Olivia also came out of the studio and went downstairs to the living room. Bettany followed behind Olivia.
She was very curious. ‘How does Olivia get along with Daniel? Does she have to please Daniel too?‘ she thought.
Daniel was bored to death. He had absolutely nothing to do. The book in his hand was also very dry. He was filled to the brim with frustration.
At this moment, he heard footsteps upstairs.
He subconsciously looked up and saw the familiar figure again.
All at once, Daniel felt that the world changed. It was beautiful again. Everything was fun. It was not boring at all.
Even the air was fresher.
The book in his hand was also especially interesting.
“Olivia.” Daniel couldn’t wait to share it with Olivia. “Come and take a look. This book is especially
interesting. Let’s read it together.”
“What are you looking at?” Olivia asked curiously.
Daniel waved the book at her. It was a detective novel.
Olivia sat beside Daniel. Just as Daniel was about to hug her so they could read together, he realized that there was someone following behind her.
Daniel narrowed his eyes and said calmly, “This is?”
“Oh. I forgot to introduce you. This is Bettany Fulham, Mrs. Liebsig’s seventh student.”
“Hello, Miss Fulham. Daniel extended his right hand.
The man’s voice was gentle and he was tall. His right hand was outstretched and his fingers were clean and distinct. He looked as if he was a prince who had walked out of a drama.

Bettany subsolously pinched her fingers. She was taken aback and her body stiffened.
When he saw this, Daniel smiled and said in a low and pleasant voice, “Is it because your hand is stained with pain that you don’t dare to shake hands with me”
The casual sentence eased the tension in Bettany.

Bettany heaved a sigh of relief. Then, her body suddenly stiffened,
She thought of Marcus
In the face of her nervousness, Marcus’s eyes were filled with contempt. He looked down on her, and even more so on her behavior.
It was as it her fingertips were stained with mud and he was unwilling to even touch them.
The fun thing was that he didn’t want to touch her hands, but he liked to torture her body.
It was really strange. ‘Why is there a world of difference between Marcus and Daniel when they are both men of prestigious status? she thought..
Daniel did not pay much attention to Bettany. He quickly retracted his gaze and read with Olivia.
He observed Olivia’s gaze. When she finished reading a page, he immediately turned the page.
Whenever he found something funny, he would look at Olivia’s face. He would only smile when he saw

His gaze followed Olivia constantly.

How nice it is she thought.

Olivia had not seen Andrew for the past few days and massed him a lot. She asked Daniel Is Andrew staying at the Sullivan family’s residence
Daniel nodded. “He has been staying there. He’s very obedient
Thinking of the cute line Andrew, Olivia’s mood instantly improved. However, she still frowned and sand worriedly. Did he sleep well at night? Did he wake up? How’s his appetite?”
She asked a few questions in a row and Daniel answered them smoothly
After getting the answers, Olivia was completely relieved. For the past few days she had been concerned that Andrew would be frightened Now that she heard that Andrew was fine, she heaved a sigh of relief and began to devote herself to the plot and continued to read the detective novel in Daniel’s hands Daniel had been looking at Olivia coldly from the side. His expression was icy Finally, he could not help but say “You only have eyes for Andrew Don’t you care about me?
What a harsh accusation.
Everyone in the living room was shunned by Daniel’s sudden words
Especially Bettany. Previously, she thought that Daniel was going to lose his temper when he put on a cold demeanor. She did not expect ham to say soch a thing
Elena burst out laughing.
Olivia was speechless. She glared at Danel “Are you also a five–year old child
I’m not a five–year–old.” Daniel uted. “Bedre care than a five–year old”
Olivia could not stand him any Sherard her eyebrows and her eyes lit up all at once. She leaned over and kissed Daniel on the belige of her youth
What is the doing There are will so many people in the room? This woman is really shameless!“ Daniel thought to himaelf
Daniel glanced at Elena and B His eyes seed filled with sparkling fireworks. It was as though he was about to die of happines
I love you the most to He pretended to be cool and coughed lightly. He lowered his head and quickly
kissed the comer of a mouth
The people surrounding them were about to die from the sweetness of their public display of affection Especially Elena. She pounced on the couch and put her palms together. Dear God, hurry up and give
a bryfriend.

Dansel looked at Ema calmdy and said in a motherly manner. You’re Olivia’s astant and you work for Olivia Sinor I’m one with Cia. I have to thank for you too. How about this? List out your requirements for choosing a partner and I’ll pock for you. There are a lot of tall and handsome elites at the CEO’s
offer
“Really Elena was excited. The richest man would of course be surrounded by rich elites. She did not have high expectations. She just wanted a manor elite.
Bettany sat in a corner and quietly watched everyone interact. She felt as if she had traveled to another
ime and space.
For the first time, she realized that there was actually a man like Daniel in the world.
He was already very outstanding, but in front of his lover, he put down all his arrogance and took on a humble stand
Bettany lowered her head. An indescribable feeling rose in her heart
There was a charity auction party tomorrow. It was Rose’s intention that Bettany attend it. She wanted Olivia to appear with Bentary and introduce Bettany to everyone
150
Olivia had long known about this. When Bettany came over, she asked Elena to take her upstairs to pick out clothes and introduce her to the various matters of the charity party.
The dressing room was on the third floor. Elena led Bettany to it.
Bettany was a little stunned when she heard that she had to choose clothes from Olivia’s dressing room. “I have to wear Olivia’s clothes?”
“Yes.” Elena did not react too quickly to what she said. “What’s wrong?”
Tm fine.” The smile on Bettany’s face faded a little.
Before she canie, she thought that Olivia would take her to the mall to buy new clothes.
After all, Rose had instructed Olivia to take good care of her.
She certainly didn’t expect this.
Most of the clothes in the dressing room on the third floor were new. The labels had not been removed. Elena put the clothes that Olivia had worn aside and led Bettany to the new clothes. She introduced them. These are all new. Your figure is about the same as Olivia’s. You should be able to wear them. If there are any inappropriate areas, it’s fine. The servants can change them.”
Bettany looked up and glanced at the clothes hanging on the rack. She was not in a good mood and casually pointed at one. “This one then.”
Elena looked at the pure white fishtail dress and frowned. “Isn’t it too plain?”
Bettany disagreed. “It won’t be when I pair it with a ruby.”
Elena’s hand that was holding the hanger paused and she looked up in surprise.
In the past, Bettany had always been timid. She did not even dare to touch the decorations in the villa of the Smith family for fear of damaging them.
t had only been a few days, but she could already mention a ruby necklace in such a casual tone. Bettany’s lips twitched. “Why are you looking at me? Don’t worry, I won’t ask Olivia for the jewelry.” At this point, Bettany’s eyes were suddenly filled with genuine joy. She took out a ruby necklace and howed it to Elena. “Elena, look. This is the necklace that Mrs. Liebsig lent me. Mrs. Liebsig said that if I on’t have any jewelry to match my clothes, I can wear this
lena did not look at the ruby necklace in Bettany’s hand. Instead, she looked into the depths of Bettany’s yes.
ettany felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze. She touched her face and asked, “What’s wrong? Why re you looking at me like that?”
lena lowered her eyes and suddenly did not want to talk to Bettany. After a while, she said in a low voice, lettany, you’ve changed. I don’t like you like this.”
ettany had been reining in her emotions. Now that she heard Elena’s words, she could not hold it in ymore. She threw the clothes to the ground and said coldly. “Why? Do you think I’m not worthy of earing the ruby or such expensive jewelry?”
ena just stared at the gown on the ground without saying a word.
ttany became even angrier. ‘Elena, you have to understand that I’m no longer the pitiful person who is brought out of the Dillon family by Olivia! I’m now a student of the president of the Painting sociation, just like Olivia! You are only Olivia’s assistant! What right do you have to look down on me?” e thought of Elena, who was overjoyed just now because Daniel wanted to introduce his assistant to

ttany suddenly felt that she was being too petty.
the past, they could be friends, but there was no need for that now.
e are no longer on the same level. I cannot compare myself to Elena. My goal is Olivia, she thought. tany turned around and left the dressing room.

“Where are you going?” Elena asked her.
Bettany lowered her gaze. “I’m going to buy some clothes. The gowns here don’t suit me.”
After saying that, she quickly left the Smith family’s villa.
Elena did not chase after her. Instead, she asked Roland to arrange for someone to follow her and protect her.
Roland was very professional. He immediately arranged for a driver and bodyguards to go over.
After making the arrangements, he turned around and looked at Elena. He asked, “Elena, aren’t you going to follow along?”
Elena smiled. “Roland, I’m Miss Taylor’s assistant, not Bettany’s assistant.”
She recalled what Bettany had said earlier, saying that she was just an assistant.
Elena found it ludicrous. She was the genius of Capitol University. She studied at university at the age of
14 and graduated with a PhD at the age of 20. She had countless achievements under her name. She had been selected from among millions of people to be an assistant under Olivia.
Bettany actually looked down on her.
Elena felt that it was really meaningless. She initially wanted to make friends with someone of the same age so that she could maintain a closer relationship with Olivia.
She did not expect Bettany to have such a bad temperament.
Chapter 339
Elena returned to the dressing room and picked up the white gown that Bettany had thrown to the ground.
She looked regretful. “She really doesn’t have good taste. This is a custom–made gown by Bosman. It’s the only gown in the world.”
Every item in the dressing room was of the highest quality. Any one of them could easily cost one hundred thousand dollars to two hundred thousand dollars.
The high–end designs were all tailor–made. There was no way to buy high–end fashion at the mall. At most, there were ready–made clothes sold there.
Because there was not enough time, Olivin asked Bettany to go to her dressing room to pick because the charity gala was tomorrow,
Unexpectedly, Bettany did not take a fancy to them.
Elena pursed her lips and told Olivia everything about Bettany’s actions.
Olivia’s expression was indifferent. She did not take Bettany’s matter to heart at all. She only listened for a moment and let it go.
Elena did not understand. “Miss Taylor, Bettany has a bad temperament. Why did you introduce her to Mrs. Licbsig?”
Olivia said nonchalantly, “Even if she has a bad temperament, it doesn’t affect her painting. As long as she doesn’t do evil, it’s fine. Artists are more sensitive in their emotions. It’s a good thing. Without great joys and sorrows in life, how can one create outstanding works?”
Elena could not help but twitch her lips. According to Olivia’s words, wouldn’t Bettany’s life be filled with Jumps and turns?
Bettany arrived at the largest mall nearby. She had the card Rose had given her.
Bettany didn’t dare to abuse it, but it was still possible to buy an expensive gown. the

Four zeros. 20 thousand dollars. ettany’s heart trembled a little, but the card in her hand gave her courage. he pretended to be calm as she looked around. She looked at the gowns one by one and frowned.

was really strange. The clothes there were so expensive, but they didn’t look as good as the clothes in livia’s dressing room.
here were flaws everywhere.
ettany visited several boutiques and spent 64 thousand dollars on a beautiful white fishtail dress that aly just passed in her eyes.
owever, even though it was also a fishtail dress, this one was far inferior to the one she had thrown on e ground previously.
an it be that expensive clothes do not look good?‘ she wondered.
ttany felt strange.
ter buying the gown and a pair of high heels, she spent almost 80 thousand dollars.
ttany did not dare to buy a bag. Although Rose’s family was very rich, she was only a student and could
t be considered a real member of the Liebsig family. She did not dare to spend too much.
wwever, just spending 80 thousand dollars was enough to make Bettany’s heart beat wildly.

actually came out to buy it.
“Would Mrs. Liebsig be unhappy after I spent so much money? she thought.
Bettany took out her phone and called Rose. She said timidly, “Mrs. Liebsig, the Taylor family doesn’t have any clothes or shoes suitable for me, so I came out to buy them. I’m too embarrassed to ask them to foot the bill.
Rose did not care at all. “Didn’t I give you a card? It’s fine to use it.
In order to comfort Bettany, she added, “You are very talented, Bettany. One day, you will be even better than me. Then, you can buy clothes for me.
Bettany completely relaxed.
At the same time, she was looking forward to it.
Rose said that she was very talented and that one day, she would be even better than her.
At the thought of this, Bettany could not help but feel excited. “When that time comes, will I be able to be like Olivia and look down at everyone from above and find a man like Daniel? she thought excitedly. A man who will completely respect and love me, unlike Marcus who looked down on me.
The more Bettany thought about it, the more excited she became. The smile on her face grew wider and
wider.
Back at the Smith family’s villa, Bettany wanted to find Elena to apologize to her. She had indeed gone too far just now.
“Where is Elena?” Bettany asked.
Roland said respectfully, “Elena is in the study on the second floor.”
Bettany nodded. “I’ll go look for her.”
Bettany thought that Elena would be angry with her, but she was not. Elena still smiled at her and said hat it was okay.
ettany was completely relieved. She held Elena’s hand and said, “Elena, I have bought the clothes. Can ou help me see if they fit?”
lena’s tone was polite and distant. I’m sorry. I still have some things to do. You can have the servant take look for you.”
‘ith that, she pulled her hand out of Bettany’s.
boking at Elena, Bettany was at a loss.
the past, Elena was not like this. She was cheerful and lively. Every time Bettany went to look for eana, she would be free. Eleana would talk to her and comfort her.
it now, Elena’s expression was the same as before. Her attitude did not change, but it made her feel stant from her for no reason.
was as if they were no longer friends, but strangers who were a little familiar with each other.
e charity auction was considered a charity event in the upper–class society of Evervale. It was held nost every year, and the organizer was the Virtue Foundation.
e Virtue Foundation was established by a few upper–class ladies in Evervale. As they were not short of ney, the donations they raised were all donated. They were very famous locally and even throughout
country.
ebrities would come to every auction, and there were quite a number of them. The media would also ow up on it. The event could be said to have a lot of fanfare.
auction started at 7 p.m., but everyone would enter the venue in advance. There would be a small ktail party before the auction began.
‘as the time when everyone would mingle.
15:01
On the Taylor family’s side, after lunch, Bettany began to feel nervous. However, Olivia took her time and even went to the study to read. Daniel did not return and was still in the company.
Only Bettany was anxious.
She waited nervously until two in the afternoon, but it seemed as though no one was preparing for the charity auction.
Bettany could not wait any longer. She knocked on the door and entered the study.
“Olivia?” She walked in.
Olivia was writing something on a piece of paper. Without looking up, she asked, “What’s up? Is something the matter?”
Bettany had always been a little afraid of Olivia. She looked at her carefully and said, “The cocktail party will start at 5.30 p.m. in the afternoon. Should we prepare in advance?”
Olivia frowned and asked curiously, “Prepare for what?”
Bettany was stunned. ‘Can it be that Olivia has completely forgotten about the auction?‘ she wondered. She quickly explained, “It’s a charity auction. It starts at seven o’clock and there will be a cocktail party at five–thirty. Don’t we need to put on makeup and style ourselves? I heard that the media will come.” Bettany did not sleep much last night at the thought of being photographed by the media. She was so nervous that she could not fall asleep at night. She was afraid that she would be mocked for doing something inappropriate during the event.
She even dug out the news of the charity auction held by the Virtue Foundation a few years ago a learned about the various proceedings.
It was said that before the cocktail party, there would be a red carpet with media on both sides.
and
It was Bettany’s first time walking the red carpet. She was afraid that her bearing would be bad, and she was also worried that she would blink in the face of the flashing lights. It was said that celebrities had all undergone professional training. No matter how many flashes they faced, they could do it without blinking or changing their expressions.
‘Oh. That.” Olivia finally understood what Bettany was asking. She lowered her head nonchalantly and said with a calm expression, “It’s just an auction. What’s there to prepare? We’re not going to the cocktail party. We’ll go there straight via the VIP passage to participate in the auction.”
Bettany was dumbfounded. “A VIP passage?”

Chapter 340
Bettany felt that she was a huge idiot and a country bumpkin.
She was just so superficial.
She had always wanted to walk the red carpet and attend cocktail parties. Little did she know that with Daniel’s prestige, he didn’t need to walk the runway in front of people, nor did he need the media’s
exposure.
As Daniel’s fiancée, Olivia would definitely follow him through the VIP passage.
Bettany left in a daze. She felt that she was so ignorant and stupid.
Around four in the afternoon, Olivia came down to do her styling. Bettany was already prepared, thinking that they would go out to the studio outside to do their styling.
Unexpectedly, the styling team was already waiting at the door.
Olivia’s style was very simple. She only put on light makeup and tied her hair into a bun. She was good–looking and had an excellent temperament. She looked gorgeous with just a little embellishment. Too many decorations would diminish her beauty.
The makeup artist who was putting on makeup for Olivia sighed inwardly that she had done makeup on so many clients, but she had never done such an easy job. In less than ten minutes, Olivia’s makeup was done.
Olivia had great skin, to begin with. It was delicate and flawless, and no pores could be seen. She didn’t need heavy foundation makeup at all. She only needed to apply light makeup.
Moreover, her entire face was flawless. She didn’t have dark circles, nasolabial folds, or eyeprints.

The makeup artist felt so bored.

Seeing Daniel enter, the designer even ingratiatingly took out a champagne colored gown. “This sorts your clothes very well, Mr. Sullivan”
Daniel discreetly glanced at the champagne–colored gown and was not very satisfied with the designer’s aesthetic taste.
He pushed the gown back. “You don’t need to select the gowns that go well with me
The designer’s heart skipped a bear when she heard what Daniel said.
She had always thought that the richest man had a good relationship with his fiancée. That was why she wanted to please Daniel. She didn’t expect him to have such an attitude.
For a moment, the designer was a little flustered and secretly scolded herself for talking too much
is she was dejected, Daniel’s deep and gentle voice sounded. “Olivia, don’t worry about me Just choose he gown you like. After you’re done, I’ll get a gown that goes well with yours!

He wondered. ‘Humph, she just doesn’t know things better and actually wants to take the same car as Olivia. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and isolated this third wheel early onl
Just like that, Daniel and Olivia took the car in front. Other than the driver, there were only the two of them in the backseat.
There were four people in the car behind. Other than the driver, Ellis, Elena, and Bettany crammed into the car.
Olivia and the others didn’t arrive early. The cocktail party was already coming to an end. The auction was about to begin, but there were still many guests sitting there,
They were all waiting for Daniel.
These rich merchants were all smart and well–informed. They had long heard that the richest man would come over, so they were waiting there.
Hence, as soon as Daniel and the others arrived at the cocktail party, they were surrounded by a group of people who were flattering them.
In the end, it was the organizer who made the crowd disperse.
The organizer of this auction was the chairman of Virtue Foundation, who was the Turner family’s madam and also Margaret’s mother.
Daniel Margaret walked over gracefully and raised her glass to Daniel.
Then, she looked at Olivia and said softly, “It’s been a while.”
