Chapter 461-467
Chapter 461
Olivia did not know what to do. At this moment, she missed Daniel very much. Before regaining her memory, although Olivia liked Daniel, her feelings for him had always been restrained and rational. It was within her control.
However, after regaining her memories, love, longing, and dependence surged out like a flood.
She could not control it at all.
At this moment, she had a very clear realization. She loved Daniel very much.
After sending Charlee out, Olivia closed the door tightly and took out her phone, wanting to call Daniel.
She had already typed the number down, but she just could not press the call button.
Her fingertips kept trembling. In the end, her entire body started trembling. Olivia took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and pressed her fingertip down.
After some time, the call was picked up.
“Hello?”
A deep and magnetic voice sounded like red wine that had been precipitated for decades. It was flavourful and gentle.
Olivia’s lips trembled. She wanted to say something, but she could not say a word. On the other side, Daniel waited for a moment. Clearly, he was getting impatient. His voice was faintly irritated. “Who is this?”
Olivia could see his current expression even though they were thousands of miles.
away.
He must be frowning.
Daniel actually did not have a good temper. He was the son of a rich family and smart, but his parents were biased and did not like him.
Therefore, his words and actions were cold and indifferent. He was indifferent to everything and was very distant from others.
He treated everyone equally. He looked gentle, but he was actually apathetic. Only when he placed someone in his heart would he open his heart and accept them completely.
There was a long silence on the other end of the line. Daniel was getting more and more impatient. Coincidentally, Sheyenne came in with some desserts. When she saw this scene, she asked curiously, “Who is it?”
When Olivia heard the female voice that sounded similar to her, her breathing suddenly became rapid, and she gripped her phone tightly.
Daniel lowered his eyes. His eyes under his long eyelashes were cold and distant. He did not like people entering his room without knocking.
“Get out.” Daniel did not answer Sheyenne’s question. His thin lips spat out two extremely sharp words, causing Sheyenne’s face to instantly turn pale.
The comfortable days she had spent here lately had made her lose her sense of propriety. She actually came in without knocking.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I’ll go out now.” Sheyenne hurriedly left.
“Hold on.” Daniel suddenly stopped her when she reached the door.
Sheyenne’s eyes lit up, and she looked up in surprise. However, next, she heard. Daniel say, “In the future, you’re not allowed to come near me without my permission. You’re not allowed to touch my things, especially my phone.”
Hearing the word ‘phone, Sheyenne’s hands tightened, and a chill suddenly ran down her spine.
At this moment, she was extremely flustered. Could it be that Daniel already knew that she had deleted his call history?
Impossible, impossible!
Daniel did not give Sheyenne time to think and said directly, “During the physical therapy last time, I was afraid that I would miss Mr. Book’s call, so I asked you to hold it for me. It won’t happen again.”
Speaking of this, Daniel paused and continued, “I won’t hold you accountable regardless of whether had any ideas before, but I hope you can remember your identity in the future and not have any ideas that you shouldn’t have.”
Sheyenne lowered her eyes, which were filled with tears.
“Okay,” she replied in a low voice and turned to leave.
After Sheyenne left, Daniel realized that the call was still ongoing.
He brought the phone to his ear and asked again, “Hello, who is this?”
There was still no sound.
Daniel frowned. His expression was cold as usual, but his dark and deep eyes were filled with impatience. It was obvious that he was already on the verge of
impatience.
He raised his slender fingers and was about to hang up the call.
The moment he pressed the button, Daniel’s heart suddenly shrank, and his entire body tensed up.
He seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and his throat became extremely dry. His thin lips slowly approached the microphone, and his voice. trembled as he asked tentatively, “Livy?“:
As soon as he said that, the other party instantly hung up.
Seeing this, Daniel almost broke down. His eyes were red. He ignored his broken
ribs and sat up on the bed. He shouted. “Someone, someone!”
Then, with trembling hands, he called back again and again.
His gaze was fixed on the number on it as if he wanted to carve this string of numbers into his heart.
Livy, it was his Livy, it must be his Livy!
Ellis came over very quickly. As soon as she entered the house, she saw Daniel lying on the ground. Immediately, she became extremely anxious. “Someone, someone, come quickly. Where’s the doctor?”
As she spoke, she went forward and wanted to help Daniel onto the bed. However, Daniel pushed her away. His eyes were red as he showed his phone to Ellis. “Go and check this number immediately.”
Ellis was a little frightened by Daniel, but she had been Daniel’s secretary for a long time and knew a little about Daniel.
Only Miss Olivia could cause such a huge emotional fluctuation in Mr. Sullivan. Ellis immediately nodded. She picked up the phone and ran out. “Mr. Sullivan, don’t worry. I’ll definitely check this number immediately.”
After saying that, she ran toward the door, completely ignoring Daniel on the ground.
At the door, she met Sheyenne, who was running over.
Sheyenne looked at Daniel on the ground with a worried expression. She subconsciously complained, “Why didn’t you help Mr. Sullivan up?”
“What do you know?” Ellis shook off Sheyenne and ran out without hesitation.
He only broke a few ribs and fell to the ground. Ellis knew that even if Daniel lost his life, Miss Olivia would still be his priority.
Ellis was very quick. She immediately had someone check this number.
Unfortunately, this number seemed to have appeared out of thin air without any
traces.
If it were not for the call log on Daniel’s phone, they would have thought that Daniel was dreaming.
This was too strange. Why were there no clues at all?
On the other side, Olivia’s fingertips tapped on the computer, removing all traces.
For someone as expert as her, no one would be able to find her as long as she wanted to hide herself.
Closing the laptop, Olivia leaned back in her chair. Her body seemed to have lost all strength.
She thought she was brave enough to face Daniel with this face.
However, all her courage instantly dissipated when she heard Daniel say, “Livy“.
He called her Livy.
Livy was the most beautiful girl in the world, and she was the ugliest girl.
Daniel said that he had to kiss Livy a hundred times every morning. Could he still kiss her face now?
Daniel said that he loved Livy the most and would always love her. If he saw her like this, would he still love her?
Olivia knew that she should not doubt him and should believe him, but this was what love was. Love would make one worry. Perhaps he would still love her when he saw her ugly appearance, but what about a year later, ten years later? Would he not be disgusted by such an ugly face every day?
Olivia could not accept such consequences.
If she wanted to face Daniel, she had to do it while she was at her best and most beautiful.
She wanted herself to be lively and beautiful forever in the memories of Daniel. She could not appear in front of him like this.
Absolutely not.

Chapter 462
“Mr. Su
Sullivan, I can’t find anything.” Ellis lowered her head, feeling very incompetent. “There’s no trace at all.”
Daniel was wearing a black shirt. The top two buttons of his collar were unbuttoned, revealing a small part of his smooth and firm chest. Even though he was sitting in a wheelchair, it did not affect his noble and outstanding
temperament at all.
Daniel tapped his fingertips on the armrest twice and said in a deep voice, “Continue to send people to the Wayne Country and raise the search efforts.”
Ellis said in a low voice, “Understood.”
Sheyenne stood at the door and looked at the situation in the living room. She pressed her lips tightly and the light in her eyes flickered.
Daniel noticed her presence and asked coldly, “Why are you here?”
Sheyenne held a plate of fruits in her hand and said in a low voice, “The doctor said that you have to replenish your vitamins and eat more fruits.”
Upon hearing this, a trace of impatience flashed across Daniel’s elegant and handsome eyes. There was no expression on his exquisite and beautiful face. His tone was cold and terrifying. “Who asked you to come? Get out.”
Like a frightened rabbit, Sheyenne lowered her head and hurriedly left with the fruit plate.
Coincidentally, Andrew came down from upstairs. A look of surprise flashed across his beautiful eyes. He turned to look at Sheyenne, who had run out, and then at Daniel, who was downstairs.
His little head was filled with worry. What was wrong with his parents?
Why was Daddy so fierce to Mommy?!
Andrew was panicking. He carefully walked to Daniel’s side and asked, “Dad, why were you so fierce to Olivia just now?”
Daniel did not expect Andrew to see this scene. For a moment, he regretted it and explained, “I was not fierce. I’m not feeling well, so I raised my tone a bit. Andrew, don’t think too much. I’m not fierce to Olivia.”
“Oh.” Andrew nodded obediently.
He did not say anything on the surface, but his heart was filled with uneasiness.
He ran upstairs to Sheyenne’s room and knocked lightly on the door. Then, he carefully leaned in. “Olivia.”
Seeing Andrew, the corners of Sheyenne’s mouth twitched. She smiled at him and waved Come
Andrew was a little hesitant.
He did not know why, but although he missed Olivia a lot, he felt extremely weird whenever he saw her, and he did not want to be close to her.
Especially when Olivia hugged him, he felt very uncomfortable.
Andrew shook his head and smiled at Sheyenne. “Olivia, you rest. I’ll go. homework.”
do my
Sheyenne sensed the boy’s resistance and deliberately pretended to be disappointed. Her eyes were wet as she sobbed. “Andrew, do you hate me too?” Why was Olivia Crying?
Andrew immediately became nervous and shook his head in panic. “No, no. Why would I hate you?”
Sheyenne chuckled. “I’m just teasing you.”
Andrew heaved a sigh of relief and chuckled. “You’re so bad.”
“Alright.” Sheyenne stepped forward and patted Andrew’s head without much physical contact. She knew that children were the most sensitive, so she could not approach Andrew forcefully. She had to take it slow and let him get used to her existence first.
After some time, he would accept her.
After leaving Sheyenne’s room, Andrew returned to his room and took out his phone to play the programming game that Olivia had made for him.
Just as he opened it, a private message suddenly popped up.
It was from another player.
How strange. There were actually other players in this game. Was this person also Olivia’s friend?
Andrew opened the private message. There was a line of words: [Hello, Andrew.] [Who are you?] Andrew frowned and looked vigilant. [How do you know my name?]
He was only soft and cute in front of his parents. When facing others, he was exactly the same as Daniel. They were similarly cold and distant.
The other party replied quickly, [I’m a friend of Olivia. She asked me to accompany you.]
Andrew did not believe this player at all. He replied, [Olivia is next door. She can accompany me by herself. She doesn’t need to find anyone else.]
After sending the message, the other party was silent for a long time. Just as Andrew thought that the other party would not reply, another message came in. Do you like the Olivia next door?]
What did she mean by the Olivia next door?
Andrew knitted his brows. He had a sense of crisis. He felt that the other party was a big liar and was trying to get information out of him.
He could not let the other party discover his true thoughts.
Thinking of this. Andrew replied word by word. [Of course, I like Olivia the most. I just came out of the room next door.]
The other party seemed uncertain and even confirmed it. [Do you really like her?]
Andrew was a little impatient. He only replied with one word. [Yes!]
The other party was silent for a while before sending a new message. [Then, is she good to you?]
What the hell kind of question was this?
Andrew pulled a long face and replied. [Yes. Olivia is very, very good to me.] [That’s good.] After the other party sent such a message, the player disappeared, along with the previous chat records.
Andrew did not take it seriously. He thought that the chat history was
automatically deleted because the game’s server was small. Thus, he lowered his head and continued to study the programming game.
At the Flores family in Wayne Country.
Olivia sat by the bed in a daze as if She had fallen into some kind of memory. After a long time, She came back to her senses and chuckled. “That’s good. That’s good…
When Kelly heard the news of an unknown call, she immediately ran back to the Smith family’s villa. The first thing she said when she saw Daniel was, “Did Olivia call you?”
Daniel looked up at Kelly. There was no expression on his face. His voice was extremely calm. “I don’t know.”
“You don’t know?” Kelly raised her eyebrows and was immediately furious. He kicked the coffee table and said in a furious tone, “You say you don’t know? I think you’re so smitten that you’ve lost your mind. You don’t even know where you left Olivia!”
Kelly was furious. She had the deepest prejudice against Sheyenne. When they first said that they wanted Sheyenne to pretend to be Olivia, she did not agree. To her, Olivia was the most noble and proud. No one was worthy of replacing her!
Ellis was about to cry when he saw Kelly’s unconcerned gaze. She quickly went forward and explained, “Please stop messing around. If word gets out and the Grant family knows, all of this would be in vain!”
All of you only care about benefits and the big picture. Have any of you ever cared about Olivia? Kelly’s eyes were cold.
She hated Daniel. She hated Mr. Book. She hated these people who talked about the big picture all the time.
She hated herself even more for not being able to do anything.
If she had the ability, she would have brought her people to Wayne Country to look for Olivia herself. Why would she be trapped in Evervale and wait for news. from others?
She had been protected by Olivia her entire life. Without Olivia, she would not be who she was today.
Unfortunately, she was so weak that she could not do anything when Olivia went missing.
After Kelly vented her anger, she ran out.
She could not sit still and do nothing. The entertainment industry? Being a celebrity? Forget it! She did not care about being a celebrity anymore. She wanted to find Olivia personally!

Chapter 463
After returning to her residence, Kelly began to pack her things. Her management contract was very free, and there were no restrictions. Moreover, after Olivia disappeared, she was worried and in a bad mood, so her agent. Amanda Cook, did not accept any tasks for her.
She had been very free lately.
Just as she finished packing, the doorbell rang. It was her manager, Amanda.
Kelly was very surprised. She raised her eyebrows and asked, “Why are you here?” Amanda looked at Kelly’s luggage with a vigilant expression. “Where are you going? You still have a variety show to go.”
“I’m not going.” Kelly did not care.
“You’re crazy! That’s a big show. There are tons of popular celebrities fighting over it!” Amanda was so angry that her face turned red. That was a variety show that she had worked hard to get, but Kelly rejected it just like that.
Kelly sighed and sat on the sofa. She said helplessly, “Look at me, Amanda. Do I look like I’m cut out for this? I was scolded for having no acting skills in filming, and I was scolded for being out of tune when I sang. Now, the entire internet is insulting me, saying I slept my way up. Why would I still go to a variety show? To ask to be insulted?”
“Isn’t this the route we planned? That even being infamous is a type of famous? Why don’t you like it anymore?” Amanda frowned.
“No.” Kelly shook her head with a determined expression. “I have something more important than gaining fame now!”
“You’re a lunatic!” Amanda could not take it anymore. Although Kelly’s acting skills were bad, and she had a stoic face and a cold aura around her, it was a good thing that she had a good face and had learned boxing. She was also hardworking enough. If she took the path of stardom and trained for a few years, she would definitely become popular.
Unexpectedly, Kelly actually quit now.
“What’s more important than becoming famous? There are so many people in the entertainment industry who want to become famous overnight. The resources you have are something that people dream of having, but you don’t know how to cherish them at all. Amanda expected better from Kelly.
Kelly had a cold expression on her face. She was going to leave regardless of what Amanda said.
Where the hell are you going?” Seeing that she could not convince Kelly, Amanda was on the edge of having a breakdown and roared.
Kelly looked up and stared at her. To look for someone!”
“Alone?” Amanda felt that Kelly was too willful. “How are you going to find someone on your own? It’s like looking for a needle in a haystack!”
Speaking of this, Kelly’s eyes were filled with frustration.
She knew very well of how powerless she was. In the past, she always felt that staying by Olivia’s side and being skilled enough in combat to protect Olivia was enough. Now that she realized it was useless even if she was skilled in combat. She wanted power and money.
This was the only way to find Olivia.
Amanda stared at Kelly for a moment and suddenly sighed. She looked like she was out of methods and said, “Let me think of a way for you. Do you know Mr. Walter:”
Kelly raised her eyebrows.
Amanda explained, “Ian Walter. The Walter family is very powerful overseas.”
At this point, seeing that Kelly did not respond, Amanda added, “Do you know the Phil family? The Phil family of the four major families in Capitol. The family that is as famous as the Grant family. That’s a branch of Mr. Walter’s family.”
Kelly frowned and looked at Amanda. “What are you trying to say?”
Amanda took a deep breath. “Mr. Walter is at Evervale right now. To be honest, your face is pretty enough. As long as you hook up with Mr. Walter, even if you want to turn the entire Evervale upside down, all it will take is for Mr. Walter to say the word, let alone find someone.”
Kelly understood and frowned. “You mean you want me to hook up with Ian Walter?”
Amanda let out a low cough. “Don’t be so blunt. I want you to date him.”
Kelly snorted. She felt that these people in the entertainment industry were really hypocritical. They all loved to mess around, but they pretended to be innocent in front of the audience.
She did not mind seducing men. As long as she could help Olivia, she was willing to give up even her life. However…
Kelly hesitated. She had been learning boxing and guns since she was young. Her personality was even tougher than a man’s. She was not gentle at all. Would Ian like her?
I don’t know how.” She shook her head.
Amanda felt a headache coming on and said helplessly, “I’ll teach you.”
Kelly thought for three seconds and agreed.
This could be considered a shortcut. She would first agree and try for a few days. If it worked, she would use lan’s power to find Olivia. If it did not work, she would do it herself.
Seeing that Kelly agreed, Amanda could not hide the joy in her eyes and chuckled.
Kelly was puzzled. “Why are you so happy?”
“No, no.” Amanda had an unnatural look on her face. Then, she changed the topic. “Mr. Walter just came back from overseas. It’s his first time coming to Evervale. I heard that the Walter family is planning to find him a Hushenian lover. They will hold a ball to do it.”
Kelly instantly understood. “They’re choosing a woman for him.”
Amanda nodded. “Yes, that’s what I meant.”
“Then there’s even less hope for me.” Kelly spread out her hands. She did not have any skills in wooing men. In the past, when she was training, she was surrounded by her comrades., and they were all afraid of her.
“It’s fine, it’s fine,” Amanda comforted Kelly. “I’ve found out what Mr. Walter likes. He likes women who are sexy. During the ball, I’ll prepare an off–the–shoulder outfit for you and put on beautiful makeup. I’m sure it’ll dazzle his eyes.”
Kelly was unenergetic. “Alright.”
On the day of the ball, Amanda had indeed dressed Kelly up beautifully and taught her a few seductive tricks. “Remember, the secret to seducing a man is itchy. You have to make his heart itch for more.”
Kelly found it hard to understand. “Are you asking me to tickle him?”
Amanda was speechless. “What’s with your brain? Not tickle him. Scratch the palm of his hand, you know? You’re going to shake hands with Mr. Walter when you two meet for the first time, right? After shaking hands, gently tickle his palm. with your fingers. He’ll definitely feel itchy inside.”
Kelly understood. “I know how to do that.” It was just scratching someone. Simple. Amanda repeatedly reminded Kelly and finally sent her to the ball.
There were many beautiful girls at the ball this time. Kelly was not even number one among the beauties present.
She held her wine glass and wandered around the ball, looking for lan. However, she could not find him. Instead, she saw a few familiar faces. They were all familiar faces in the entertainment industry.
There was Lora, who was known to be innocent and pure, and the sexy actress, Charlotte.
“Oh, isn’t this Ms. Sebastian?” Charlotte was the first to notice Kelly. Her tone was sarcastic. “Even someone with resources as rich as you would attend such a ball. Aren’t you ashamed?”
Everyone in the entertainment industry knew about Kelly. After all, she was backed by the richest man in the country, Daniel Sullivan. While other female. celebrities were struggling and could not get any resources, Kelly could rely on her poker–faced acting skills to obtain countless good resources.
Lora also saw Kelly. She was wiser. Although she did not like Kelly, she would
1209
never offend a person with such a powerful background
Hence, she raised her hand and tugged at Charlotte. In a low voice, she said, “Don’t provoke her. Business is more important”
Charlotte snorted. Although she looked indignant, she still followed Lora obediently.
She muttered softly. This Kelly is so annoying. It wasn’t easy for us to get news about Mr. Walter. We spent so much effort to get the tickets to the ball, but she came here so casually. It’s really infuriating”
“Calm down.” Lora looked up and said indifferently. I heard that Mr. Walter 1s extremely cold and distant. A proud young lady like Kelly won’t catch his eye. She’s not our competitor. Don’t waste your time on her
“Got it.” Charlotte nodded.
Chapter 464
Kelly had not even stayed at the ball for half an hour before she started to get impatient. Olivia was still suffering somewhere. She really did not have the mood to come to such an occasion.
She raised her wrist and looked at her watch. It was almost eight o’clock in the evening, and she was getting more and more impatient.
Forget it. Her personality was not liked by men at all. Back in the days when she was training, there would be men who were interested in her at the beginning, but they would not last long. In less than a week, all of them would keep a distance from her.
Kelly knew that she was not the type to seduce men.
Just as she was about to leave, there was a commotion at the door.
Everyone in the ball moved towards the door. They extended their necks to rush. towards the door, but they did not dare to get too close, leaving a wide passage in the middle.
Kelly’s reaction was slow. She could not squeeze in front at all. Her eyes flashed as she pulled a chair and stood on it.
Looking from above, she saw it clearly.
At the entrance of the ball, a man in black walked in. His well–tailored suit. wrapped around his body, accentuating his tall and slender figure.
Kelly was a little surprised. Other than Daniel, this was the first time she had seen. such a good–looking man.
In the entertainment industry filled with handsome men and beautiful women, it was difficult to find someone with such an elegant temperament.
Ian walked forward with two assistants by his side, reporting something to him. As he walked, he listened and nodded from time to time. With the nobility and arrogance of an aristocrat, even his nod was like a reward to those around him.
There was an invisible aura around this man that made the people around him subconsciously submit. Ever since he came in, everyone in the ball subconsciously fell silent, not daring to say a word.
In the huge venue, only his assistant’s report and his heavy footsteps could be heard.
When he finally reached the center of the venue, everyone began to line up to wait for him to meet them.
Kelly also found a spot and stood behind everyone, moving forward step by step. She was a little far away from Ian, so she did not feel much. However, as she got closer and closer, she began to feel nervous, and her heartbeat accelerated.
She did not know if it was because she cared about lan’s reaction or if she was influenced by the people around her.
Finally, it was her turn.
Ian stretched out his right hand. Kelly subconsciously shook it and introduced. herself, “Kelly Sebastian.”
a cello.
Ian enunciated his words clearly. His voice was deep and his tone was like
He did not seem to be interested in Kelly. He only touched her hand lightly with his fingertips and quickly retracted it.
It was too fast for Kelly to react.
Oh no!
She had not scratched his palm yet!
It was time for her to show off her skills. Before Ian could retract his right hand, Kelly grabbed his wrist with her left hand and scratched his palm.
What was this? What the hell was she doing?
Everyone was shocked by Kelly’s actions.
The so–called seduction had to be done inadvertently and in the dark. However, Kelly actually grabbed Ian’s wrist in public and scratched him.
This seduction technique was too crude!
Charlotte could not help but burst out laughing. The others around her also chuckled.
Kelly finally realized that she did not do it right.
She was extremely vexed and scolded herself. What was she doing? What was she doing?!
Why did she grab his wrist and scratch it?
What was wrong with her brain?
Even though Kelly had undergone professional training and had a strong will, she could not help but blush.
Oh God, this was too embarrassing. Ian must have had a terrible impression of her.
Kelly lowered her head. She immediately wanted to run and hide in the crowd. However, before she could retreat, Ian spoke. He seemed to be very interested in Kelly’s behavior. He looked at her seriously with his fine and deep eyes. “Miss Sebastian, is this the Hushe Republic’s etiquette? It’s very interesting.
As he spoke, he reached out his clean and slender right hand and grabbed Kelly’s wrist. Then, he gently scratched her palm…
Kelly’s heart suddenly itched.
“Oh my god!”
The scene instantly fell silent. Even Kelly herself was shocked by this turn of
events.
Only then did everyone realize that Ian
had lived overseas since he was you Although he spoke fluent Hushenian, he did not know anything about its
etiquette.
Elijah Glover, Ian’s assistant, said, “Miss Sebastian, Mr. Walter is very interested in the Hushe Republic’s etiquette. Would you like to explain it to him?”
“What? I would have the opportunity to?” Kelly thought.
Her eyes lit up. This was really a lucky stroke.
She immediately nodded rapidly. “Sure, sure.”
Her eyes were as bright as stars as she stared at Ian.
Was she that happy? Ian’s eyes narrowed. He inadvertently turned his gaze away and pretended that nothing had happened.
Elijah stretched out his hand and led Ian and Kelly to the seat beside them.
The women who were waiting in line to see lan were dumbfounded. He was leaving just like that? He was going to ignore the rest of them?
Charlotte was originally gloating and mocking Kelly, but in the blink of an eye, the situation had reversed. She immediately gritted her teeth. Kelly was her nemesis. Every time she met Kelly, she would have bad luck.
Lora’s expression did not look too great either. She was almost at the last position. She originally wanted to wait till Ian was a little fatigued and surprise him. However, she did not have the chance to showcase herself at all.
“What should we do?” Charlotte stomped her feet in anger. “This Kelly is so lucky. So much so that I think she was pretending just now.”
Lora lowered her eyes. She was also a little annoyed at herself for underestimating Kelly. After thinking for a while, she said, “We’ll take the initiative to go over later.” “What?” Charlotte licked her lips nervously. “Isn’t that too abrupt?”
“Even if it’s rude, we have to go over. We’ve already lost the initiative. If we don’t think of a way to stand out, I’m afraid we’ll be drowned in the crowd. This is a rare opportunity we’ve fought for. Lora decided to go all out.
On the sofa, Kelly’s heart was beating wildly. She was extremely anxious.
“What should I do? What should I do?” She thought in her head.
Amanda had only taught her one move and nothing else. She had no idea how to get along with men.
She was so anxious that she was sweating profusely.
Kelly decided to go to the washroom and send a message to Amanda.
Hence, she quickly raised her head. “Mr. Walter, 1…”
On the side, Ian thought that she had something to say, so he turned around. His movements were a little hurried, and Kelly almost fell into his arms. Fortunately, she was agile and stabilized her body, so she did not get into lan’s
arms.
Kelly was about to heave a sigh of relief when her gaze paused and suddenly fell on the half of the crescent necklace that was exposed around Ian’s neck.
“Huh?”
This necklace looked so familiar.
Kelly had a similar necklace before. Olivia gave it to her.
She cherished it like it was a treasure.
About seven years ago, during a training session, she had unintentionally saved a kidnapped little boy. The little boy took away the necklace around her neck and said that he would repay her in the future.
At that time, Kelly was so angry that she almost cried. Everyone was giving a token to their savior, but this boy actually snatched the token from his savior. She wanted to snatch the necklace back, but the little boy refused to give it to her. He even said righteously, “After we separate, you will definitely forget me. In order to prevent you from not remembering me, I want to snatch the most important thing from you. That way, you will always remember me. You will also want to find me.”
After saying that, he stuffed the crescent necklace into his mouth. No matter how Kelly tried to pry open his mouth, she could not open it even when it was dripping with blood.
In the end, the little boy was taken away by the people who picked him up, and Kelly was also taken away by her team leader.
To this day, Kelly still remembered that when they parted ways, the little boy opened his mouth full of bloody teeth and smiled at her.

Chapter 465
The crescent necklace only flashed past. Kelly thought that she had been mistaken and did not take it seriously.
She nodded at Ian and said that she wanted to go to the washroom. Then, she hurriedly ran to the washroom. When she arrived, she immediately called Amanda to ask about the next steps.
“What should I do next, Amanda?”
“You’ve successfully approached Mr. Walter? That’s amazing.” Amanda was amazed. Then, she taught Kelly her moves. “Follow what I taught you before. Move closer to Mr. Walter, touch his shoulders and thighs, and create a sensual feeling.”
Kelly listened attentively and memorized all the important points. In the end, she nodded. “I understand. I’ll go over now.”
After saying that, she hung up the call and left in a hurry.
When she went out, two people walked out of the toilet stall. They were Lora and Charlotte.
The two of them originally wanted to get close to Ian, but they happened to see Kelly walking towards the washroom. Thus, they followed her and hid in the dark. to eavesdrop.
Before they came, they thought that Kelly had some seductive tricks that could confuse Ian. However, after hearing what Amanda said, they were all speechless. Erm…
This seduction technique was too low–class. No one had used it since decades ago. Moreover, lan was no ordinary man. He had grown up surrounded by beauties, and they were vying for him. This kind of seduction trick was too clumsy. He would see right through it.
More importantly, Lora had important news about Ian.
Ian was a very abstinent person. He was very repulsed by women. Countless beauties had pounced on him one after another, but up until now, no one had been able to get close to him, not even a little.
“Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter. What tricks are Amanda teaching? Is she trying to make things difficult for Kelly?” Charlotte covered her mouth and laughed.
Lora did not speak, but the expression on her face relaxed visibly.
Charlotte laughed for a while and turned to Lora. “Shall we go over now?” Lora shook her head. “Not for now!
“Huh? Charlotte was puzzled. Did Lora not say that they would take the initiative to get close to lan and leave a special impression on him?
Lora curled her lips and smiled mockingly. “Give that idiot Kelly some time. We’ll go over after she completely angers Mr. Walter.”
At the thought of Kelly, Charlotte burst out laughing again.
Kelly walked toward Ian while mentally rehearsing how to touch him.
This was a habit she had developed during training. No matter what she did, she would practice it a few times in her heart beforehand.
When she came over, lan was sitting on the sofa. His slender fingers were massaging his temples intermittently. The black handmade suit on his body was buttoned all the way to the first button. He looked meticulous and had an indescribable sense of abstinence.
Sensing Kelly coming over, the man raised his head and looked over coldly. His eyes were like a dead lake, deep and cold.
Kelly froze. She was a little suspicious of Amanda’s words.
Would a cold and abstinent man like lan really like her explicit seduction?
Why did she feel like it would not work?
Kelly hesitated for a moment before she approached Jan. Gritting her teeth, she finally made up her mind, walked to Ian’s side, and stood close to him.
She could feel the heat coming from the man’s body.
She was inexplicably nervous. Under the shocked gaze of lan’s assistant, Elijah, she squeezed closer to Ian…
Damn!
Everyone who saw this scene was stunned. They were all shocked by Kelly’s boldness.
Ian never got close to any woman. However, not only did Kelly scratch his hand, but she was also so close to him. They all broke out in cold sweat for her.
Shao Yunheng’s gaze fell on Kelly Sebastian. His gaze was clearly fixed on his chest, but his tone was extremely serious. “Miss Lin, are you a short–term cultivator?”
However, the result made everyone’s jaws drop.
Not only did lan not be annoyed by Kelly, he even turned his head and looked at her seriously. “Miss Sebastian, is this also the Hushe Republic’s etiquette?” Kelly nodded. She raised her right hand and placed it on the man’s thigh, then said seriously, “This is also etiquette.”
lan’s eyes dimmed when he saw the woman’s soft and warm hand on his leg.
He used almost all of his control to suppress the thirst in his heart to push Kelly down.
Kelly, Kelly…
This was the woman he had been longing for nearly a decade. For her, he
endured the harsh training of his family and tried his best to take over the Walter family, eliminating all obstacles in the bud.
His heart ached when he thought of her.
She smelled so good, and she was so soft!
Ian’s eyes suddenly flashed with a scorching heat that seemed as if it could burn everything. If it were not for the fact that he was afraid of scaring Kelly, he really. wanted to press her down right now and take her on the spot.
Ian felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen. He moved his body and covered it subtly. He pretended not to know what was going on and looked at Kelly
curiously. “Miss Sebastian, the Hushe Republic’s etiquette is very interesting. It’s very similar to Finian.”
After saying that, he suddenly leaned closer and rubbed Kelly’s soft cheek. Then, he said seriously, “Does the Hushe Republic also have this type of greeting?”
Kelly was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses and immediately nodded. “Yes, yes, yes.”
Upon seeing this, Ian’s lips twitched. There was an uncontrollable heat in his voice. “Miss Sebastian, I’m very interested in the etiquette of the Hushe Republic. Can we find a quiet place to discuss it in detail?”
“Wow!” Kelly could not help but be surprised.
Her
eyes lit
lit up. Suddenly, she felt like a genius in seducing men. In just a short while, she had already taken another step forward with Ian.
She nodded immediately, overjoyed. “Okay. Shall we go upstairs and find a room?”
“Okay,” Ian said in a low voice.

Chapter 466
At the Flores family in Wayne Country.
Olivia had been in a bad mood for the past few days. Charlee was worried about her, so she asked, “Saintess, please go and watch my competition later.”
“Are you competing today?” Olivia asked.
“Yes.” Charlee nodded. Catching poisonous bugs was a relatively basic competition. The elites of the various families would not participate. The highlight of the Star Competition was in the later part.
Charlee was worried about the Saintess, so she wanted Olivia to go out and relax. “Alright.” Olivia nodded. She happened to want to go out for a walk.
After putting on the cloak and veil, she followed Charlee to the Star Forest.
There were already many people at the Star Forest. There were young men and women hanging out in groups, and there were also elders guiding the younger generation.
Olivia’s arrival caused a commotion.
“Who is she? She’s covering herself so tightly.”
“I heard that she’s the Saintess of the Flores family.”
“So it’s the Saintess. Aren’t all Saintesses very weak? Why did she come here?”
“I don’t know. She’s probably just bored.”
Everyone was surprised to see the Saintess here, but they did not watch too closely. After all, their families all had Saintesses, so they were not considered
rare.
Alicia had been observing from the front. When she saw the Saintess, she was surprised at first, but then she subconsciously frowned and was very unhappy. “What is she doing here? Is she looking for trouble?”
Alicia wanted to win first place in the competition for catching poisonous bugs, so she was very attentive to it. She had been by her grandfather’s side for the past. few days, asking about the competition. She even rarely visited the Saintess and neglected quite a bit.
Although she was unwilling, Alicia still came over and brought a bottle of water for Olivia. Her tone was respectful and gentle. “Saintess, drink some water. The sun is hot here. Let’s go over there and sit.”
“It’s fine. Olivia shook her head and took the water. She took a sip and looked up at Alicia. “How’s the preparation for the competition? If there’s anything you need my help with, you can ask.
What can you do to help? Just don’t add to the mess!‘ Alicia cursed silently.
She did not take Olivia’s words to heart at all and said directly, “Saintess, don’t
worry. I’ve already prepared everything. Grandpa gave me a lot of medicine that can attract voodoo worms.”
Charlee stood at the side and was very envious when she saw the row of vials hanging on Alicia’s waist.
She did not have any medicine in her hands at all. They were all common goods. bought from the pharmacy. The only special vial was given by the Saintess, and she had no idea if it was useful.
Although Olivia knew that Alicia’s thoughts were not pure, Alicia had been taking care of her these past few days. That was why she asked if Alicia needed help. Since Alicia did not need help, she did not continue asking.
When the competition began, all the participants entered the Star Forest. The competition would take a long time. Since Olivia had nothing to do, she wandered around. Just as she found a pavilion and sat down, the voices of a man. and a woman came from the bush beside her.
“Jason, I’m about to get engaged. Don’t pester me anymore!” First, a woman’s angry voice sounded.
“Engaged?” The man sneered. “Lucy Lopes, I’m warning you. You’re mine. These lips, this face, and here… Only I can touch you. If anyone else wants to touch you, they’ll die.”
“Hmm… Hmm… No!” It seemed to be the sound of a man and woman kissing. Olivia supported her chin with one hand and sighed at her good luck in bumping into such a scene just by taking a casual walk.
However?
Olivia frowned. The names Jason and Lucy sounded familiar.
She thought, ‘Isn’t Lucy the most outstanding girl amongst the third generation of the Lopes family? It is said that she and Edwin Flores, the eldest grandson of Dolph Flores, are discussing marriage. How did she hook up with Jason from the Sprout family?”
This information was deliberately gathered by Olivia. Although she stayed at home all day, nothing was a secret to her.
After a series of moans, Jason finally let go of Lucy. There were still traces of passion in his tone, but it was especially sinister. “Lucy, I’m warning you one last time. Don’t even think about avoiding me, and don’t even think about getting engaged to another man. If I could kill Herman back then, I can kill Edwin now!” Hearing this, Lucy almost broke down. “Jason, you’re my Ninth Uncle. Father won’t allow us to be together. You’ve already harmed Herman. Do you still want to hurt Edwin now?
Do you think the Flores family is to be easily messed with?
Jason, please let me go.
“Impossible. Never!” What followed was a series of inappropriate voices.
Olivia was pregnant, so she was afraid that these sounds would affect the baby. Thus, she got up and left in another direction.
She only took two steps when a vicious gaze shot over from behind.
Olivia stopped in her tracks but did not look back. Instead, she continued walking forward.
“What should we do? She heard us!” Lucy was about to cry. The matter between her and Jason must not be spread, let alone let anyone know that the death of her ex–fiancé, Herman, was related to Jason.
Lucy tidied her clothes and ran toward Olivia. “Wait, wait.”
Her footsteps were very fast, and she instantly stood in front of Olivia. She sized Olivia up for a moment and immediately guessed Olivia’s identity. “You are the Saintess of the Flores family, Berry Flores!”
“Yeah.” Olivia smiled.
Hearing this, Lucy’s expression was a little gloomy. It would be easy if it were. someone with a more ordinary identity, but that would not be the case if it were the Saintess of the Flores family.
Just as she was thinking of a way to shut Olivia up, Jason walked over.
He rested his chin lazily on Lucy’s shoulder and said casually, “Lucy, don’t worry. Leave it to me. I’ll shut her up.”
Lucy’s face turned pale, and she stomped her feet anxiously. “Are you going to hurt her?”
“Be good.” Jason kissed Lucy’s fair face. “Listen to me. Go over first. I’ll take care of
it.”
“No.” Lucy shook her head. “You’re not allowed to hurt anyone else. The status of a Saintess is different. Moreover, this is the Flores family. You’ll cause trouble.” “Are you worried about me?” Jason smiled evilly, his eyes filled with light. Lucy blushed and turned around to deny it. “Who’s worried about you? I just don’t want you to hurt innocent people.”
“Got it.” Jason’s tone was not sincere and was very perfunctory. “Go to the competition. I’ll handle it here. Don’t worry. There’s nothing in this world that I can’t do.
The man’s tone was filled with arrogance.
Moreover, the two of them had been talking to each other from the beginning to the end, discussing what would happen to Olivia, but no one cared about Olivia’s
opinion
Were they treating her like air?
Olivia sighed softly. She felt that she had been lucky lately. Why did the
encounter strange things everywhere she went?
Finally convinced by jason, Lucy turned around and left. Before she left, she looked at Olivia with a complicated gaze and said kindly, “Saintess Flores, if you want to live, forget everything that happened today. I’m not threatening you. I want to save you. You…”
‘Don’t talk anymore. Be good.” Jason interrupted Lucy. He held her shoulders. with both hands and pushed her forward. “Go!”
After Lucy left, Jason instantly became a different person. His temperament was malicious and terrifying, and his entire body was filled with viciousness.
“Berry Flores?” He tilted his head to look at Olivia and chuckled. “Lucy is kind and doesn’t like to hurt people, but I’m not that patient. Now, I have two choices in front of you. One, you kill yourself. Another, I kill you.”
At this point, Jason smiled disdainfully. “I’ll give you a chance to choose. Choose.”
Chapter 467
“Choose? Who does he think he is?” Olivia thought.
She decided not to leave. Instead, she returned to the pavilion and sat on a stool. Then, she raised her eyebrows and sneered. “Just now, the disgusting sound the two of you made polluted my ears. Now, I’ll give you two choices. One, you beg for mercy. Another, you kneel and beg for mercy. Choose.”
Had this Saintess of the Flores family lost her mind?
Jason raised his eyebrows in surprise. For a moment, he did not know if he should call her stupid or bold or that the ignorant were fearless.
It had been many years since anyone dared to talk to him like this.
Jason lowered his eyes. Killing intent rose in his eyes. The resentment in his eyes. shot out like a poisonous snake, wanting to hang Olivia to death.
Seeing this, Olivia frowned. She did not like this person’s gaze. It was too vicious. Jason patted the non–existent dust off his body and looked at Olivia. He said. softly, “I gave you a chance just now. On account of Lucy pleading for you, I’ll let you die a quick death. Since you don’t know how to appreciate kindness, don’t blame me for being impolite.
“Berry, right?
“Hehe.”
Jason sneered and turned to leave.
He did not take this Saintess seriously at all, nor did he want to waste time on her. After leaving, he directly called for guards and gave a few orders before throwing this matter to the back of his mind.
In less than a moment, a man in black barged in. He held a sharp blade and stared fiercely at Olivia.
Olivia raised her eyebrows, thinking that Jason acted really quickly.
The man in black did not say anything. He held the dagger and rushed toward Olivia. Just as the dagger was about to pierce through Olivia’s neck, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest. The next moment, he looked down and saw that there was a silver needle on it.
He was aghast!
When was it inserted?
He raised his hand and wanted to pull the silver needle out, but he had no strength left in his body and could not move at all.
Olivia stepped forward and pulled out the silver needle from the man’s body. Then, the stuffed a black pill into the man’s mouth and said in a low voice, Do you know what you took? Manipulation Voodoo, From now on, you can only
listen to me.”
With that, she wiped her hands on the man’s clothes, ignored the man’s terrified. gaze, and turned to leave.
In the
past, in the Hushe Republic, no matter what Olivia did, she followed the rules and always restrained herself. She rarely hurt anyone.
Now that she was in the Wayne Country, she finally felt free.
How nice!
She was invincible here.
In Olivia’s eyes, the voodoo that the four great families proud of was
were so merely child’s play. She had stopped playing with poison since middle school. When she returned to the Star Forest, the competition to catch poisonous bugs had already ended.
Seeing Olivia, Charlee ran over excitedly. She was so excited that her face turned red, and she stuttered, “Saintess, Saintess, I–I got first place. First place!”
She stretched out three trembling fingers. “Three thousand, three thousand. I caught more than three thousand poisonous bugs. If it weren’t for the lack of containers, I could have caught more.”
Charlee was overjoyed. She pulled Olivia and jumped around.
After the competition ended, they were going to receive the award. Charlee stood at the highest position, her eyes smiling like crescent moons as she waved at Olivia.
Alicia, who ranked second, noticed Charlee’s actions. Her expression was extremely bleak. She had never imagined that she would lose to a servant.
After the award ceremony ended, Charlee immediately ran to Olivia’s side. When she passed by Alicia, she asked kindly, “Miss Alicia, do you want to go over there with me?”
Alicia was irritated when she saw Charlee. She pressed her lips and said coldly, “No, I still have something to do.”
Charlee did not understand the meaning behind Alicia’s words. She was still laughing silly, “Miss Alicia, the two of us have done the Saintess proud by taking first and second place. Everyone is talking about us.”
Alicia’s expression was stiff. She suppressed her irritation and nodded.
When Charlee returned to Olivia’s side, she was still jumping around happily. Olivia looked at the girl’s happy face and suddenly thought of Andrew. Andrew was also like this. He could not hide his thoughts and could be happy for an entire day whenever he encountered something delightful.
Thinking of Andrew, Olivia’s heart softened. She asked Charlee gently, “Do you want to be the champion of the Star Competition?”
“Of course I do.” Charlee smiled brightly, but after smiling, she became shy and embarrassed. “I’m not that good. I only got one first place. I’m still far from the champion.
Olivia smiled faintly and said, “It’s not far. If I say you can get it, you can. Go and sign up. Remember, you have to participate in all the activities that Lucy signed. up for.”
Charlee blinked in confusion, not quite understanding what Olivia meant. But since it was the Saintess‘ request, she would just do as she was told.
Back in her room, Olivia leaned against the bed to rest. She casually tapped on her phone and could not help but send a message to Andrew, [Andrew Baby.] Andrew was playing the programming game when he discovered this message. Her pretty little brows furrowed. [I’m not a baby. I’m an adult!]
[Alright, alright, alright. I know. You’re an adult now.] Olivia’s expression was gentle. [Have you been happy lately?]
Andrew knew that he should not bother with strangers, but for some reason, he felt a strange sense of closeness to this stranger, just like when he faced Olivia. No, no!
Andrew shook his head. His eyes were filled with tears. How could he casually compare a stranger to Olivia? Olivia was unique. No one could compare to her. Wiping the tears in his eyes, Andrew replied, [Who are you? Why do you always appear out of nowhere?]
Olivia’s fingertips paused on the button for a moment before she typed, [I’m a robot. A robot developed by Olivia. I’ll chat with you when you’re lonely.] “Robot!” Andrew exclaimed.
Boys were naturally curious about such things, and Andrew was no exception. His eyes were wide open, and he was filled with curiosity. [So you’re a robot.]
[That’s right.] Olivia nodded and replied.
Knowing that the other party was a robot, Andrew’s tone became much more relaxed. He turned on the chatterbox mode. [Actually, I haven’t been happy at all lately.]
Olivia’s heart ached. Her fingertips were numb. After a long while, She typed with trembling fingers, [Why are you unhappy?]
Andrew explained his troubles. [Dad is injured. Olivia has become so unfamiliar. I don’t dare to be close to her anymore.]
Where did your Dad get hurt?] Olivia’s heart throbbed in pain.
[He got a few ribs broken, but Daddy is not a good boy. He refuses to lie down properly and keeps moving around.] Andrew frowned.
Olivia typed word by word. I have a prescription here that specializes in treating
bone injuries.]
[Does it work?] Andrew doubted.
[Of course.] Olivia said firmly, [I’m a smart bot developed by Olivia. I know everything.]
[Nonsense.] Andrew exposed her immediately. [Olivia is right next door. Even she can’t do anything. How can you, a robot she developed, have a way?]
[Andrew Baby.] Olivia hesitated for a moment before typing this line. [Can you stay away from Olivia? Don’t trust her. You have to believe in your own feelings. If you don’t like to be close to Olivia, don’t be close to her, okay?]
[No!] Andrew suddenly refused. [I hate you. You’re a bad robot. Olivia is my mother. How can I not be close to her?]
“Mother?”
Olivia felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest when she saw this word.
“Andrew, you, you know? You know that I’m your mother?” She thought.
