Billionaire’s Missing Darling by Theresa Wilde -
Chapter 71-80
Chapter 71
Olivia was silent.
She had already realized that there was something wrong with her phone. Someone had tampered with it.
At this time, who would still use text messages? There were many ways to communicate, such as WhatsApp and Snapchat. Now, text messages had been reduced to receiving verification codes and notifications.
Olivia had not checked her messages for a long time.
The other party had clearly predicted this and knew that she would not read the message, so they used the message to do the trick. If they used WhatsApp, they would be discovered immediately.
Seeing Olivia’s silence, Amelia seemed to have found her weak spot. Amelia mocked, “Why? You don’t dare? Is it because you are guilty?” At this moment, Amelia was already extremely disgusted with Olivia. Amelia had a mother–daughter relationship with Olivia previously. Although Amelia did not raise Olivia, she was still Olivia’s biological mother.
No matter what, Olivia came out of her womb.
Although Amelia was not close to Olivia, she was still proud of Olivia deep down.
This child did not have a wealthy family or top–notch resources, but she still ended up so outstanding and won an international award.
But now, Amelia only had hatred towards Olivia.
Amelia could not wait to expose Olivia. She stepped forward, grabbed Olivia’s hand, and unlocked it with Olivia’s fingerprint.
The back of Olivia’s hand was covered in blisters. Amelia did not care at all. She pinched Olivia’s hand hard, causing Olivia to tremble in pain. Olivia’s bent and curled up in pain.
Seeing Olivia’s pain, Amelia’s eyes flashed with joy. Amelia put her entire hand on Olivia’s hand and deliberately broke a few blisters.
It was said that mother and daughter were connected by heart. A mother was pained when her child was suffering. However, at this moment,
Amelia only wished that Olivia would die from the pain.

After unlocking the phone, Amelia immediately opened the message and quickly found the message that the villain had mentioned.
[I’ll fall into the water later. Hide in Emma’s room immediately. When she comes back, you rape that bitch. She’s enjoyed my wealth for so many years. It’s time to pay her back.]
Amelia read the content aloud.
Amelia could not control the trembling of her body. “It’s really you! What else do you have to deny?” As she spoke, she suddenly stepped forward and slapped Olivia hard.
Olivia lowered her head and checked the blisters on her hands. She was caught off guard and was hit.
Amelia had used a lot of strength. Amelia’s nails were very long, leaving a long scratch on Olivia’s face. Olivia bled.
But even so, Amelia still felt angry and wanted to step forward and kick Olivia.
However, Olivia had already reacted and retreated a few steps to dodge, Amelia’s eyes widened. “You still dare to dodge?”
Olivia suppressed the anger in her heart and tried her best to calm down, “I didn’t send the message.” As she spoke, Olivia snatched the phone and looked at the time the message was sent. Olivia explained, “The message was sent at 10:25. I’ve already fallen into the water at this time. How can I send the message?”
“You are still trying to explain?” Amelia was so angry that she stepped forward to hit Olivia.
Every time Amelia’s fist landed on her body, Olivia felt as if a piece of her heart was torn off. Olivia looked calm on the surface, but her heart was already riddled with holes.
Olivia did not dodge. She just lowered her head and looked at Amelia quietly, letting Amelia hit her.
Amelia was a little stunned by Olivia’s calm gaze, and she subconsciously stopped.
At this moment, Samuel said, “Stop quibbling.” Compared to Amelia’s emotional actions, angry, and a little disappointed towards Olivia, Samuel’s tone was that of a complete stranger.

It was as if the person in front of Samuel was not his biological daughter but an unimportant stranger.
Samuel’s tone was cold. “I’ve already obtained the hotel’s surveillance footage. The time you fainted and were sent back to the guest room was 11:50. At 10:25, you didn’t fall into the water and were still on the boat.” Olivia was stunned.
Impossible. She clearly remembered that when Andrew returned to deliver the lotus seed pod to her, it was 10:10 in the morning. Olivia was checking her phone and replying to her classmates‘ WhatsApp messages, so she knew the time.
The seed pod was delivered at 10:10, followed by her falling into the water. By 10:25, Olivia was unconscious and it was impossible for her to send a text message.
Samuel frowned and said in a cold tone, “If you don’t believe in the surveillance cameras, there are photos here.”
As he spoke, Samuel threw the two photos in front of Olivia.
On the screen was a photo of Olivia and the evildoer. The photos were taken from a specific angle. They were clearly two strangers, but it looked like they were plotting.
Looking at the photo, Olivia’s heart turned cold.
The other party was well–prepared, and Olivia could not defend herself at
all.
At this point, Olivia was unwilling to explain. She looked at Samuel with a cold gaze. “So what if it’s me? Isn’t Emma fine? When she got someone to deal with me previously, didn’t you say that we’re family? It’s fine.” “Heh.” Samuel sneered and looked at Olivia with a mocking gaze. “Who do you think you are to compare yourself to Emma? You are nothing near
her!”
Olivia took a deep breath and used all her strength to suppress the pain in her heart. She tried her best to maintain her last rationality.
“Call the police!” Olivia said. “Let the police handle it.”
“No.” This time it was Liam who spoke.
Liam looked up at Olivia and said, “Although Emma is fine, people would
talk and speculate that if we call the police. It will damage Emma’s

reputation.”

“You want to convict me without calling the police?” Olivia looked up. her aura was still shocking.
Olivia’s appearance made Amelia very unhappy.
Olivia had clearly done something wrong. Why did she still look so self–righteous?
“Olivia!” Amelia said. “Do you have any kindness? It’s fine if you don’t apologize for doing such a thing, but you actually refuse to admit it. How did I give birth to such a thing as you? I shouldn’t have given birth to you back then. Even if I did, I would have thrown you into a basin and drowned you!”
Apologize? Olivia sneered. She didn’t do anything, so why should she apologize?
Olivia stood in the middle of the living room and looked around. The aura of her suddenly changed. “Only someone who wants to frame me would put such a clumsy crime on me. You’ve underestimated me. If I really wanted to mess with Emma, I wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble to find someone to rape her. I would have just injected her with a medicine and made her beg for death. And no one would know a thing about it.”
When she said this, Olivia’s tone was exceptionally calm. But when everyone heard it, they could not help but tremble.
These words sounded unbelievable. What kind of medicine would make people wish they were dead?
This must be a lie!
Everyone thought so, but they could not help but be intimidated by Olivia. They felt uneasy.
“Don’t spout nonsense!” Samuel frowned and used his harsh words to hide the uneasiness in his heart. “If you did something wrong, you have to be punished.”
“Guards!” Samuel waved his hand.
Suddenly, more than ten burly men nearly 6 feet 3 ran out from all
directions of the living room and quickly surrounded Olivia.
“What are you guys going to do?” Olivia tensed her body and put her right hand behind her back in a defensive posture.

“What do you think?” Samuel sneered. “Punish you, of course!” Olivia was incredulous. “You want to use lynching? That’s illegal.” “Heh.” Samuel sneered. “I’m disciplining my own daughter. Who would dare to criticize me? Besides, it’s not like I’m going to kill you. I’m just going to make you suffer.”
“Go!” Samuel gestured.

Chapter 72
Olivia was very skilled, but no matter how good she was, this was still a real world, not a fictional world. She was not so heaven–defying that she could fight against more than ten burly men with her bare hands.
Therefore, Olivia did not make a move. Instead, she turned to Liam. “Grandpa, are you really going to attack me?”
Liam remained silent.
The old man, who had been influential for decades, did not think it was a good idea to use lynching on Olivia. Law regulated the world. Even if they had money, they could not do whatever they wanted. Even if the Taylor family had hundreds of years of wealth accumulation, they still had to act under the rules of the law.
Olivia’s identity was very special. Not only was she the Taylor family’s daughter, but she was also a popular new star in the scientific research world.
Although the Taylor family was not afraid of Olivia’s retaliation and did not take her seriously, they still cherished their reputation. The Taylor family wanted to establish a good image in the public.
However, there was more to it.
Liam looked at Samuel and Amelia, who had a cold gaze. They would not agree to this matter. They would definitely punish Olivia.
It wasn’t that Liam couldn’t subdue Samuel and Amelia, but he felt that it wasn’t worth it to have a grudge against his son for Olivia.
More importantly, Amy and Yvonne had called back previously and said that they had already contacted a famous doctor who lived in seclusion and could treat Liam’s increasingly stiff leg.
The renowned doctor was called Isaac. His personality was extremely strange. Although the doctor’s medical skills were superb and he had great acupuncture skills, he rarely saved people and almost never performed acupuncture on them.
This time, Yvonne spent a lot of effort to invite Isaac to treat Liam.
It was said that Ryan’s leg was cured by Isaac.
Therefore, Liam had high hopes for Isaac.

In return, Liam was willing to make Yvonne feel better.
No one liked Olivia. Amelia, Amy, and Yvonne all wanted Olivia to be punished.
Then Liam could only sacrifice Olivia.
Olivia was unlucky. Her parents didn’t love her, and she was even
kidnapped. When she grew up, she provoked Emma and Yvonne. It could only be said that Olivia wasn’t lucky enough, and she deserved it!
Thinking of this, Liam sighed and looked at Olivia. “Emma can’t suffer for nothing.”
Upon hearing this, Olivia felt as if someone had punched her hard in the heart. It was so painful that she shivered.
“What do you mean?” She still couldn’t believe that Liam would do this to her.
Liam’s words clearly meant that he tacitly agreed that Samuel would attack Olivia.
Olivia turned to William. When she spoke, her voice was dry and bitter. Olivia felt pain in her throat. It was a sharp pain. “Do you think so too?” William turned his face away and avoided Olivia’s gaze.
Seeing this, Olivia’s heart sank.
Olivia lowered her head and composed herself. When she looked up again, she had completely changed her appearance. Her eyes were filled with arrogance and coldness.
Softness and grievances were meant for family.
Arrogance and indifference were meant for the enemy!
“Tell me, what do you want? An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth?” Olivia looked up coldly and said in a cold voice.
Emma was shocked by the coldness in Olivia’s words and subconsciously shivered. Emma did not dare to look up, and she kept her head lowered.
After suffering a few setbacks in front of Olivia, Emma had already left an indelible shadow in her heart. Therefore, Emma did not dare to face Olivia directly. Emma only dared to play some tricks behind Olivia’s back and use Samuel and Amelia to deal with Olivia.
At this moment, Ethan said, “Not everyone is as vicious as you. They’re just punishing you according to the family rules.”

Billionaire’s Missing Darling

The evidence was so conclusive that Ethan had no choice but to believe it.
Ethan had always thought that Olivia was an arrogant and cold woman who disdained certain things. Now, it seemed that Olivia was just pretending.
Thinking about how he had fallen for Olivia before, Ethan felt disgusted. Such a sinister and vicious woman deserved to die a hundred times over. “Family rules?” Olivia wanted to laugh. “Although my surname is Taylor, I’m not from your family, right? You’ve never raised me.”
Amelia hugged and comforted Emma gently. When Amelia heard this, she looked up at Olivia with an indifferent expression.
“Who gave you your life? No matter what, I gave birth to you and raised you for five years. You are destined to owe me!” Amelia lowered her eyes and said coldly, “I want you to return it to me now! Otherwise, you should repay us with your flesh and bones. As long as you stay here for five days, you will not owe me anymore. You will have nothing to do with the Taylor family anymore.”
Repay them with flesh and bones? Olivia wanted to laugh, but she had mixed feelings.
Olivia couldn’t believe how far they went.
Olivia looked up at Amelia and smiled bitterly. “Mom, I’ll return it to you!”
Amelia’s heart trembled. Subconsciously, she felt that something very important had left her body. For a moment, Amelia wanted to stop it. But Emma’s gentle call beside her ear made Amelia come back to her senses.
“Mom.” Emma held Amelia’s hand and comforted her gently. “You still have me. I will always be by your side.”
‘Right!‘
Amelia nodded. She still had Emma. One daughter was enough for her.
Thinking of this, Amelia turned cold again. Without even looking at Olivia, Amelia turned around and ordered the burly man, “Capture her and lock her upstairs!”
Olivia did not resist. She allowed herself to be carried to the second floor.
Olivia thought to herself that she would pay it off completely this time. From now on, the Taylor family would have nothing to do with her.

Liam looked at all of this and sighed deeply.
Liam thought he’d better forget it. He didn’t want to think about it. anymore. He was already old. The others could do whatever they wanted. Let them be.
Liam took out his phone and dialed the number of Isaac that Yvonne had given him.
“Hello, who is this?” It was an old but strong voice on the other end of the line.
Liam subconsciously lowered his speed and said in a flattering tone, “Isaac, it’s me, Yvonne’s grandfather. She asked me to contact you directly.”
“It’s Mr. Liam Taylor?” Isaac’s tone became more respectful. “Hello, hello.”
Liam did not expect the renowned doctor’s attitude to be so good. There was nothing strange about Isaac at all. Moreover, Isaac respected Liam so much. Isaac should know Liam’s identity.
Liam felt much better when he thought about how he was respected. Liam asked in a low voice, “When is a good time for you? I’ll go over.” “No need.” Isaac rejected.
Liam was surprised when he heard Isaac continue, “I’ll go to Evervale.”
“You’re coming in person?” Liam was shocked. His tone was filled with surprise. “That’s great, that’s great. Will this trouble you?”
“It’s no trouble.” Isaac smiled and lowered his voice. His tone was filled with longing and pampering. “I can visit my granddaughter as well.”
“How old is your granddaughter? I also have a granddaughter. If they are of the same age, they can hang out together,” Liam said.
Isaac smiled and did not continue the conversation. He only said, “I’ll go over and take a look at your leg first. Let me tell you in advance that my acupuncture skills are limited. I might not be able to treat your leg.” “You’re too humble,” Liam complimented. “You can even treat Ryan’s leg. Isn’t my illness a piece of cake for you?”
“I’m not being humble.” Isaac’s tone became serious. “Ryan’s leg was cured by my granddaughter. My medical skills are far inferior to my granddaughter’s.”
Liam was surprised. “Is she that good?”

“Mm.” Isaac nodded. “If she’s here, she’ll be able to treat your leg. However, she said that she wouldn’t treat any more patients. I wonder if she’ll make an exception for you.”
Liam chuckled, not knowing how to respond.
“Alright,” Isaac said, “Give me the address, and I’ll be there in two days. As for my granddaughter, you’ll see her after that.”
Isaac’s last sentence was meaningful.

Liam originally had a cold expression on his face. But when he finished the call, he smiled. The butler could tell that Liam was in a good mood, so he tactfully asked, “Is the person on the other end of the phone the Isaac that Ms. Yvonne introduced?”
Liam nodded. “That’s right. The renowned doctor will be coming over in a few days to take a look at my leg.”
“That’s great!” The butler was excited. Then, he said, “This doctor respects you so much, Mr. Taylor. He must know who you are in Evervale.”
The butler said just the right thing. Liam had a faint smile on his face. Liam was very restrained, but everyone present could see that he was in a good mood.
Ethan also knew a little about Isaac. However, Ethan did not know the exact situation and could not find any information. It was said that there was a super big shot protecting Isaac.
Other than treating a few big shots who were often on the news, Isaac rarely treated other people. Most of the time, he lived in seclusion.
Some time ago, Karen had mentioned to her family that she wanted to find a way to get Isaac’s contact information. Karen wanted Isaac to tend to her health conditions.
When he heard that Isaac was coming to treat Liam personally, Ethan revealed a shocked expression. Then, he secretly sighed at Liam’s power.
Liam was probably the one with the best connections and resources in Evervale.
Ethan said enviously, “Mr. Taylor, you have such great resources. Rumor has it that when Ryan invited Isaac to treat his illness, Ryan personally paid a visit to the doctor. One has to know that the Book family is very influential in the political world. Even so, Ryan had to personally invite Isaac. Now, Isaac actually wants to come to Evervale for you.”
“Don’t mention it. It’s Isaac who’s being polite.” Liam waved his hand.
On the surface, Liam looked humble. But in his heart, he couldn’t feel more proud.
Liam had a depressed feeling because of Olivia, but now he felt much

better.
Because of Isaac, Liam’s guilt towards Olivia lessened a little. So what if she was his granddaughter? So what if she won the Lasker Award? In the end, Olivia was just a researcher with no connections.
Olivia was useless to the Taylor family. Yvonne was different. She was so powerful that even Isaac would answer her request. Meanwhile, Olivia only caused trouble for the Taylor family.
Thinking of this, Liam frowned.
As expected, luck was the most important thing in a person’s life. Yvonne, an outsider, could have such connections because Amy liked her. On the contrary, Olivia was a real member of the Taylor family. However, Olivia was useless because she had been lost since she was young and could not obtain high–quality resources.
Olivia didn’t have Emma’s delicate scheming and elegance. And she did not have Yvonne’s social skills and energy.
The difference of 18 years had left Olivia far behind by the other two ladies of the Taylor family. Olivia was far inferior to them.
“Yvonne is a good girl,” Amelia praised.
Samuel followed closely behind. “Indeed, indeed. I don’t even have Isaac’s contact information. I only know his name and have never seen him before.”
Because of Isaac, the gloomy atmosphere in the living room dissipated and became cheerful again.
Amelia hugged Emma and looked at her fair and delicate fingers. Amelia thought of Olivia’s rough and dry hands and suddenly said, “Bloodline doesn’t decide everything. What determines a person’s future is nurturing.”
Samuel did not know what Amelia wanted to say. He turned his eyes and looked at Amelia curiously.
Amelia sighed and said, “Although Emma is not the Taylor family’s girl, look at how elegant and graceful she is. There’s no other socialite in Evervale who’s more noble than her. And Yvonne has nothing to do with the Taylor family at all. She just stayed with Amy and had such good fortune. It can be seen that the postnatal environment is important.”
Samuel wanted to agree with Amelia. But when he heard her say that

Emma was not the Taylor family’s girl, he felt a little guilty and did not say anything.
Amelia continued, “Let’s talk about Olivia. Although she’s the Taylor family’s bloodline and I gave birth to her, she’s vicious. She is short–sighted and petty. She is ruthless, cold–blooded, and has no use for the Taylor family. On top of that, she is ruthless and wants to harm Emma.”
Speaking of this, Amelia became angry and looked at Liam. “Dad, don’t be soft–hearted. You must teach that bitch a lesson for the next few days and avenge Emma.”
Liam glanced at her. “What do you want to do?”
Amelia lowered her eyes. “We’re a noble family. We can’t do anything barbaric. Physical torture doesn’t mean much, and it’s indecent. Why don’t we punish her mentally?”
“What do you mean?” Liam frowned.
Amelia said, “Do what she did to Emma. Find a few men to bully her, but don’t go too far. Don’t really hurt her. Let her suffer and take some photos to humiliate her.”
Amelia’s tone was casual, but it made Ethan shudder.
Liam also frowned. “She’s your biological daughter.”
Upon hearing this, Amelia suddenly became excited. “I really wish I didn’t have this daughter. Emma has suffered so much. Why should Olivia get away with it? Just because she is my daughter, she’s superior to others? No, I can’t accept this!”
“Mom.” Emma tugged at Amelia’s sleeve to dissuade her. “I’m fine now. Don’t punish Olivia anymore.”
Ethan was here. Emma needed to maintain a good image.
William also said at the right time, “Mom, don’t go too far. You can vent your anger with other methods.”
“Mom, don’t be angry. I’m fine.” Emma was like a little animal as she lay in Amelia’s arms.
Because of Emma’s persuasion, Amelia calmed down. She smiled at Ethan and explained, “I was too angry, so I spoke without thinking. I won’t treat Olivia like this.”

“I know. Your heart aches for Emma.” Ethan heaved a sigh of relief. Amelia knew that she had lost her composure just now. There were still outsiders here. How could she reveal such a side? Amelia hurriedly explained.
On the surface, Amelia promised that she wouldn’t do it, but she had already thought of how to deal with Olivia.
Olivia frightened Emma. Then Olivia had to suffer mental torture. Amelia had once heard about how the disobedient palace maids in the royal palace were punished in ancient times. The maids would be locked in a room and fed a lot of food and water. However, the maids had no access to the toilet. The maids would have no choice but to pee in their pants in the end.
It was a method used to humiliate the maids.
There was nothing more humiliating for a young girl than peeing her pants in front of others.
Amelia wanted Olivia to pay a heavy price. Amelia also wanted to record the entire scene and keep it to humiliate Olivia for the rest of her life.
If Olivia had a strong mind and didn’t break down and go crazy, she would be lucky. If she couldn’t withstand the humiliation and went completely crazy, she would be locked up in the worst mental hospital and live in hell.
If not for the fact that it was illegal, Amelia would have injected Olivia with drugs and completely destroyed Olivia!

Olivia was locked on the second floor. She did not sit down. Instead, Olivia stood in front of the window with her hands behind her back and looked at the sky outside.
The moon was round tonight. It was a full moon, big and bright.
Olivia recalled what her teacher said when she was in elementary school. He had said that the full moon represented homesickness and the love for one’s family.
At that time, little Olivia secretly wondered where her family would be. The full moon was so beautiful. Everyone on earth could share the view. At this moment, were her parents, who were far away, admiring the same moon as Olivia?
Isaac said that he found Olivia from a little path. Because that place was remote, it was not safe for a little girl like her. Moreover, Olivia was so beautiful that she would be kidnapped as a child bride. That was why Isaac brought Olivia home.
At that time, Olivia was dressed beautifully in one of those little satin gowns. Her hair was long, styled in a delicate, pretty bun. And she had a beautiful little leather bag hanging over her shoulder.
From such fashionable clothes, one could tell that Olivia was meticulously taken care of by her mother like a little princess.
Isaac said that Olivia’s mother must have loved her very much.
Olivia thought so too. Although Olivia was too young, and she forgot many things, she still remembered a pair of gentle and amiable eyes in her dreams at night.
The person who had the eyes loved Olivia so much. She would buy Olivia beautiful dresses and wear a mother–daughter matching outfit with Olivia. She always dressed Olivia very well.
She even said that Olivia was her favorite little princess!
However, things were different.
Olivia suddenly squatted down and covered her chest and mouth. It was a pain that cut through her entire body.

Olivia’s mother was gone. Her mother, whom Olivia had been looking forward to for so many years, said that she did not want Olivia anymore. She Said that she wished she could drown Olivia.
How did it end like this?
Olivia lowered her eyes. Her eyes were filled with bone–piercing pain. On the other side, Daniel realized that Olivia was missing and was very unhappy. He was more than unhappy.
Daniel’s unhappiness made the atmosphere around him depressing and
tense.
At this moment, Daniel sat on the sofa with his thin lips pursed tightly. There was no expression on Daniel’s handsome face as if he were a sculpture.
Mr. Wilson walked around and immediately shivered from Daniel’s aura. He ran to the other colleagues in the CEO’s office to seek shelter. The other colleagues were thinking about how to create a chance for Mr. Sullivan and Olivia to meet. When they saw Mr. Wilson coming over, they immediately surrounded him and asked, “How’s Miss Olivia? Are you scared?”
This group of elites usually wore suits and leather shoes, and they had graduated from top international universities. But now, they all had gossipy expressions on their faces.
All kinds of questions followed. “Did Mr. Sullivan get angry because of Miss Olivia?”
“Wa Miss Olivia touched and threw herself into Mr. Sullivan’s arms?”
“Do you need our help? I can write a professional proposal for wooing girls.”
Mr. Wilson felt dizzy from the argument and felt extremely helpless. His colleagues acted so differently. They were all big shots in the industry with annual salaries of hundreds of thousands of dollars and dividends. And now they were all like gossipy little girls.
Mr. Wilson made a pause gesture, then said, “Miss Olivia has left.”
Instantly, the room fell silent.
At this moment, the elites only had one thought in their minds. “Mr. Sullivan is going to explode!”

Mr. Wilson glanced at everyone and thought to himself, “It’s too late. Mr. Sullivan already exploded.”
Just as Mr. Wilson was about to tell everyone about Daniel’s cold
expression in detail, he received a call from Daniel. He quickly jumped up and rushed over.
Daniel was only angry for a moment. He quickly regained his rationality and got down to business.
Daniel leaned back on the sofa and rapped his knuckles on the glass. “Did you get the surveillance footage?”
Daniel was asking about the surveillance footage of Olivia falling into the water. At that time, Emma and Lola were both behind Olivia and were very close to Olivia. Daniel did not see who was behind Olivia. He only saw Olivia stumble.
Without concrete evidence, Daniel couldn’t say that Olivia was pushed into the water. So he immediately got someone to copy the surveillance footage.
There were many surveillance cameras at the lotus pond, but they were far away. It was not sure which surveillance cameras could capture the scene, so Daniel instructed Mr. Wilson to be careful and search patiently.
In the end, Mr. Wilson told Daniel that the footage was not obtained!
“What’s going on?” Daniel frowned.
With his current status, Daniel was top–notch in Evervale. How could he not even get a copy of surveillance footage?
Mr. Wilson replied, “The staff in the park said that the surveillance cameras are broken.”
“What about the hotel’s security cameras?”
“The staff said he accidentally deleted it!”
“Heh.” Daniel sneered.
Daniel originally had a distant personality, and he gave off an
unapproachable feeling. At this moment, Daniel was even colder, making Mr. Wilson lower his head even more and almost freeze.
“Interesting.” Daniel’s tone was cold. When he spoke, there was no warmth at all. “We can’t get the surveillance footage, and the hotel staff even said that the room where Olivia was meant to be hurt was
35

unoccupied. Tell me, how can there be such a coincidence?”

At this point, Daniel suddenly raised his head and looked at Mr. Wilson. Daniel was sharp and oppressive, carrying an oppressive aura that filled
the room.
Mr. Wilson lowered his head and could not say a word.
After a while, Daniel suddenly sneered, and the tense atmosphere in the room instantly disappeared.
“This hotel belongs to Yunice Chain, right?”
Mr. Wilson nodded. “Yes, yes, he owns it. He has hotels in several scenic spots. Because he has a wide network, he knows how to do things. His business is not bad.”
Upon hearing this, Daniel leaned back on the sofa and returned to his lazy appearance.
Then, Daniel lowered her eyes and looked at his fingertips. He said
calmly, “If he can’t even secure surveillance footage, how can he manage a five–star hotel?”
Mr. Wilson’s heart skipped a beat, and the hair on his back stood on end. He subconsciously looked at Daniel. “What do you mean?”
“Shut it down.” Daniel’s tone was casual. He made it sound like bankrupting a five–star hotel was an ordinary thing.
“Don’t worry.” Mr. Wilson’s eyes darkened. He bent down and left the room. When he left the corridor, his back immediately straightened.
Although Mr. Wilson was timid and a little silly in front of Daniel, he was a top student who had graduated from Ivy League University. Mr. Wilson had been a genius since he was young. He went to one of the best colleges in the country and went to an Ivy League school for his master’s degree.
Mr. Wilson was the secretary in front of Daniel, but it would not be a problem for him to manage a company with hundreds of millions of
assets.
Mr. Wilson returned to the group of gossip elites and knocked on the door without saying anything.
Someone immediately understood. It was a technical big shot. “Don’t worry, there are no surveillance cameras in the room. I’ve checked.”
Mr. Wilson nodded with a serious expression and repeated Daniel’s

instructions.
When the elites heard this, they immediately calmed down and began to divide the work. In less than an hour, they calculated the customer flow and turnover of this hotel, as well as getting a comprehensive analysis plan of this hotel. They investigated all the social relations of Yunice clearly.
One by one, the analysis forms were made. At this moment, a beautiful woman said, “White or black?”
The woman was asking whether to use legitimate business methods or to play some tricks. Yunice was not a decent man, and his hands were stained with a lot of blood.
Mr. Wilson adjusted his glasses. “Let’s play nice before using force!”

Olivia was locked up for a day and a night. During this period, Olivia didn’t have a bite of food or a drop of water. She thought that the Taylor family was going to starve her for five days.
Although five days was a little long, it was not unbearable.
So be it. Just treat it as repaying Samuel and Amelia for giving her life. After suffering this, they would have nothing to do with each other in the future.
Olivia was already prepared to starve. But the next day, someone brought food in.
The maid who brought the food was newly recruited by the Taylor family. Olivia didn’t know her. The maid was still very young, seemingly in her early twenties. The maid had a fair complexion and a beautiful face.
However, such a beautiful maid had an extremely bad attitude.
“Eat.” The maid threw the plate on the table with a thud. Then, she crossed her arms and looked at Olivia arrogantly.
The maid thought that Olivia would be angry so that she could take the opportunity to humiliate Olivia.
However, Olivia did not even raise her head. Olivia did not look at the maid at all. It was as if the maid was not a person and was just an item casually placed in the room.
The maid felt uncomfortable and deliberately spilled the water on the table. Then, she pretended to say to Olivia, “I’m sorry, Miss. The water is spilled. Mrs. Amelia says that you only have this cup of water. If it’s spilled, there’s no more water to drink.”
When she spoke, the maid revealed a complacent expression. She moved her finger across the water on the table and said, “This table is very clean. If you are really thirsty and can’t help it, you can lie on the table and drink it, Miss. This water is not dirty compared to…”
Before she could finish speaking, Olivia suddenly looked up and glanced at her indifferently.
Olivia’s eyes were extremely deep and dark, like a vortex that could

devour a person’s soul, Olivia’s eyes were calm and cold.

The maid was instantly shocked. She felt like a ferocious beast was staring at her. She couldn’t move at all, and she did not even dare to breathe.
After a while, Olivia said, “Get lost!”
Only then did she come back to her senses. This time, she did not dare to cause trouble. She immediately turned around and fled.
Olivia was too terrifying!
Emma and Yvonne were already terrifying enough at home.
Unexpectedly, Olivia was even more terrifying than them combined. Could it be that all the young ladies of wealthy families were like this? When the maid just came to the Taylor family, she was still a little indignant. She was ambitious, good–looking, and meticulous. That was why she stood out from more than a hundred girls and was sent to the Taylor family.
The maid thought it was a great opportunity for her to have a brighter future. The Taylor family was a top–notch wealthy family in Evervale, and they offered a high salary and good benefits. If the maid served them well and was appreciated by one of the masters, she might be able to make a big leap.
Unexpectedly, when she arrived at the Taylor family, the maid realized that there were dozens of maids there. She was not eye–catching at all. Moreover, in terms of seniority, newcomers like her had no chance to get close to their masters. They all did trivial things.
If it was in ancient times, the newcomers were inferior maids. They couldn’t get close to their masters at all.
The maid was around the same age as the young ladies, and she was beautiful as well. That made the maid even more indignant. The young ladies had so much money to spare. The clothes they wore were all from top brands.
In the eyes of these young ladies, those things that the maid could never afford were just something to be used casually. If the ladies did not like something anymore, they could throw it away without a care.
Gradually, the maid began to feel unfair.
When the maid saw that Olivia was in trouble, she wanted to step on Olivia. She did not know what had happened to Olivia. She only knew

After an unknown period of time, the door opened and someone came in to collect the plates. This time, it was not the maid, but Lynn. Seeing that the dishes on the table were untouched, a trace of disappointment flashed in Lynn’s eyes. But Lynn did not say anything. She just silently cleared everything.
Olivia glanced at Lynn and said, “I need to go to the restroom.”
Hearing this, Lynn was delighted and asked, “You want to go to the restroom?”
Olivia did not know why Lynn was so excited. She nodded. “Yes.”
Lynn opened her mouth and revealed a meaningful smile. Like a venomous snake spitting out its tongue, she said faintly, “Miss, you can’t go to the restroom. You can’t go all the time.”
Olivia’s eyes darkened. She realized their intentions.
After realizing this, Olivia didn’t feel angry at first, but disbelief.
Someone actually used such a method to humiliate their own daughter!
Olivia lowered her eyes.
Lynn thought that Olivia couldn’t hold it in anymore. Lynn was so excited that her heart was pounding. She quickly packed the plates and left. After she left and closed the door, Lynn suddenly said, “Miss, you can use the bed.”
Olivia suddenly looked up. She stared straight at Lynn.
Lynn’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly closed the door.
“Scary,” Lynn thought, patting her heart.
Lynn had a much stronger mindset than the maid, so she was not intimidated. Lynn quickly regained her composure and walked towards the kitchen happily.
It was great. Miss Emma and Ms. Yvonne’s enemy were about to be finished.
When Olivia could not hold it in anymore and peed in the bedroom, she would become the laughingstock of the entire upper–class society. Not only that, Olivia was also a rising star in the scientific world. Presumably, people would be very happy to know about her scandal.

After Lynn came out of Olivia’s room, she didn’t call Yvonne immediately. Instead, she went to Amelia’s room to report.
“Madam.” In front of Amelia, Lynn was not as happy as she was. After all, Olivia was Amelia’s biological daughter. Amelia could punish and humiliate Olivia herself, but the servants could not.
Lynn said respectfully, “Madam, Miss Olivia said that she wanted to go to the restroom, but I rejected her.”
“Well done.” Amelia’s expression was indifferent. “Keep a close eye on her later. Get a few people to bring cameras in and film her.”
Emma was also in the room. She already knew what Amelia planned to do.
As a matter of fact, Emma was very happy that Amelia would go this far for her. But Emma also worried it would be too much.
Emma bit her lower lip.
When Amelia saw Emma’s worried expression, she sighed in her heart and patted Emma’s hand. “My good Emma, you are too kind. It’s just because of your gentleness and kindness that others bully you. Alright. You don’t have to worry about it. Leave it to me. Go back to your room and have some rest.”
Emma obediently returned to her room. The more she thought about it, the more worried she became. Emma could not help but call Evelyn. Everyone in the Taylor family took Olivia as a weak person who was easy to bully. Only Emma knew how terrifying Olivia could be.
Emma instinctively felt Amelia’s plan was unreliable. Emma was not worried about Olivia. Emma was afraid that she would be implicated if the matter blew up.
When it came to Olivia, Emma became more and more indecisive.
Evelyn received a call from Emma. After hearing about Amelia’s plan, she laughed so hard that she almost fell to the ground. “Hahaha, this is a good idea. Humiliating her own daughter. I’m impressed that she could think of such a way.”
Evelyn was overjoyed. Unlike Emma, who loved Amelia, Evelyn hated Amelia very much.

“Mom.” Emma was unhappy. “Let’s get down to business. That Olivia Taylor is not easy to deal with. I’m afraid…”
“What are you afraid of!” Evelyn interrupted Emma. “Don’t get involved in this matter. Let Amelia deal with Olivia. The more vicious the method, the better. It’s best if they don’t get along.”
“But…” Emma frowned. “If my identity is exposed, Amelia will definitely…”
“So what?” A vicious look flashed in Evelyn’s eyes. “The more ruthless Amelia is now, the more her heart will ache in the end. By that time, Olivia will not forgive her even more!”
Speaking of this, Evelyn could not help but laugh again.
Evelyn wanted nothing more than to tell Amelia that the daughter she had raised for 18 years and doted on the most was her husband’s illegitimate daughter!
After Lynn reported to Amelia, Lynn was about to go back and call Yvonne. At this time, Yvonne showed up in the Taylor family house.
Why did Yvonne suddenly return to the country?
Everyone was surprised.
Liam hurriedly went downstairs to welcome her.
Yvonne was wearing simple and elegant clothes. The accessories she wore were also simple, but she looked like a young lady from a wealthy family. Every move she made was gentle and moving, with a proper intimacy.
“Yvonne.” Liam held Yvonne’s hand and pretended to be unhappy. “Why didn’t you tell me in advance before you came back? I could send
someone to pick you up.”
This time, Yvonne’s status was very different.
Last time, Yvonne was a burden brought back by Amy. She had to commit suicide to win their hearts and ostracize Olivia. This time, she was treated as a good granddaughter by Liam.
Yvonne did not need to say a word. In order to please her, the Taylor family had sent Olivia away early and made sure Olivia didn’t appear in front of her.
It was all because Yvonne was more valuable than Olivia.
Thinking of what she had brought back this time, Yvonne became even more smug.

“I missed you, Grandpa, so I came back to take a look. Don’t you welcome me?” Yvonne said coquettishly.
“You little girl,” Liam said dotingly.
“Grandpa.” Yvonne sat in front of Liam and hugged his arm. “I heard that Isaac is coming over personally to treat your leg. Is that right?”
“That’s what we were talking about.” Amelia brought Emma over and said warmly, “We all said that Yvonne is so capable that she managed to invite Isaac. We don’t even have his contact information.”
In the past, Amelia had looked down on Yvonne and thought that Yvonne was just lucky to have caught Amy’s eye. In the end, Yvonne was just an orphan to Amelia.
Now that Amelia saw that Yvonne could invite Isaac, Amelia’s impression of Yvonne changed. Amelia felt that Yvonne was capable and had good
resources.
Yvonne was humble. “That’s not my ability. It’s clearly because Grandpa is esteemed that Isaac came personally.”
Speaking of this, Yvonne took out an ancient and exquisite wooden box.
“What’s this?” Amelia was curious.
Yvonne raised her eyes to hide the smugness in her eyes and said slowly, “Isaac came from a family of renowned doctors for hundreds of years. They have many ancient prescriptions. This is an ancient prescription that Isaac has recovered in recent years. A precious pill was made according to it. The pill can nourish the body, and replenish blood and energy. I specially asked Isaac for one for Grandpa.”
As she spoke, Yvonne handed the wooden box to Liam and gestured for him to take a look. “Grandpa, look. Isaac said that one pill is divided into ten portions. Take one every day. After taking ten portions, your body will be agile, and you will be refreshed.”
The butler stood behind Liam and exclaimed, “Is it that magical? Ms. Yvonne, why don’t you get more for Mr. Taylor to take every day?”
Yvonne raised her eyebrows and glanced at the butler without saying anything.
William walked down the stairs and said, “Do you think Isaac’s precious pill is something easy to obtain? I heard that the process of making the precious pill is very complicated. It requires not only a secret technique but also a special method. Even Isaac, such a renowned doctor, only
3/4

made a little more than 30 of the pills. The government has most of the pills. Isaac only has two or three left.”
Speaking of this, William turned to Yvonne with admiration in his eyes. “It’s already impressive that Yvonne can get one. She probably has the only one in the entire Evervale.”
Upon hearing this, the butler realized how precious the pill was.
Everyone in the living room, including the master and servants, was impressed by Yvonne. Even Emma widened her eyes in shock.
In fact, Emma couldn’t get this precious pill. She didn’t even know who
Isaac was.
In the past, Emma only knew that Yvonne was ruthless. Now, it seemed that Yvonne was also a very capable person. Yvonne’s connections and resources could be compared with the Taylor family’s. With Yvonne here, Olivia would have a hard time making a comeback.
This was how things were in this world. Family and blood ties were not that important when faced with benefits.
So what if Olivia was the eldest daughter of the Taylor family? She couldn’t compare to Emma emotionally, and her connections couldn’t compare to Yvonne’s. In front of the strong, Olivia was a weak person with no advantages.
At the thought of this, Emma felt a little sorry for Olivia.
Olivia was a noble young lady of the Taylor family, but she was lost. among the commoners and became a poor person. Firstly, Olivia lacked material goods. And she had no profound foresight and resources.
It was not easy for Olivia to achieve some achievements in scientific research and be confident. However, in the blink of an eye, Olivia was defeated by Yvonne again.
Tsk, tsk, tsk. What a pitiful woman.

Yvonne knew well about how to behave. This time, she brought gifts for everyone, including a gift for Olivia.
It was a beautiful gemstone necklace which was quite expensive.
Upon seeing the gift, Amelia commented, “Why did you bring her a gift? She doesn’t deserve something so nice.” She was no longer hiding her disgust towards Olivia.
Yvonne glanced at Amelia and felt surprised. She didn’t expect Emma to hold such a significant place in Amelia’s heart. Amelia was willing to forgo even her pride just to slander Olivia and side with Emma.
Yvonne pretended to be embarrassed. “Previously, because of me, Olivia was embarrassed and couldn’t come home. I felt bad, so I thought of giving her a gift to apologize.”
“It’s not your fault,” Amelia comforted her. “From now on, Olivia has nothing to do with the Taylor family. You don’t have to care about what she thinks. There are only you and Emma as the granddaughters of the Taylor family.”
“What happened?” Yvonne pretended to be surprised.
Amelia reassured her and said, “It’s fine.” Then, she turned to Liam. “That girl doesn’t know how to appreciate favors. She’s also vicious and ungrateful. Keeping her in the Taylor family will only ruin our
reputation. It’s best to announce her dismissal in the newspaper and take back the shares she holds in the Taylor family.”
Worried that Liam might not agree, Amelia looked at Yvonne and added, “After retrieving the shares, we can distribute them to Emma and Yvonne.”
Liam sighed. “It has only been half a year since the banquet was held to announce that we found Olivia and it was reported in the newspaper. If we announce her dismissal now, the Taylor family will become the laughingstock of the entire upper–class society.”
“It’s better to endure short–term pain than prolonged suffering!” Amelia sneered. “If we don’t act now, with her wicked nature, she might do even more malicious things. When the time comes, the Taylor family will be implicated and it will be even more painful.”
Liam remained silent for a moment before saying, “It’s fine to retrieve the

shares, but let’s skip the newspaper announcement.”

Amelia smiled. “That’s right. Of course, we have to give the Taylor family’s shares to the granddaughters of the Taylor family. So, Yvonne and Emma will split it equally.”
Liam nodded. “Okay.”
Upon hearing this, Yvonne immediately refused. “It’s okay to give them to Emma. How am I supposed to be a member of the Taylor family and accept the shares? No, I can’t accept them.”
Emma quickly echoed her. “I can’t accept them either.”
Their modesty pleased Amelia, who clapped her hands with a smile. “These are our daughters from the Taylor family. So magnanimous! Unlike the one upstairs, she is narrow–minded, with a small mentality, money–minded. She didn’t even hesitate to accept it, without any show of modesty.”
The butler added with a smile, “Researchers might have prestigious titles, but they’re often quite poor. Relatives from my husband’s family work in research institutes, with many impressive titles, but they can’t even afford a down payment of 200 thousand dollars.”
Thinking of Olivia’s shabby appearance and the cheap clothes she was wearing without even a brand, Amelia frowned.
She felt no heartache, but embarrassment.
Amelia expressed her concerns and told William, “I remember she’s a shareholder of Charm, so she should have shares and shouldn’t be short of money.”
William was not well–versed in this matter and can only inferred based on experience. “Her shareholding might not be that substantial. Moreover, Charm has only been doing well for a couple of years. The dividends might not be that much.”
“She’s not worthy of the limelight,” Amelia said coldly. “A pheasant can’t become a phoenix even if it flies to the top. She’s not deserving of good things.”
As she spoke, she turned to Yvonne. “Yvonne, keep the necklace, it would be a waste to give it to her. By the way, after such a long flight, you must be tired. Go upstairs and rest.”
Yvonne elegantly ascended the stairs and entered the room that the butler had prepared for her. She leaned back in a chair and idly played

She couldn’t help but think that Olivia was truly in trouble this time. She thought that even the god seemed to be favoring her. She felt lucky to invite the renowned doctor, Isaac, and obtain the precious pill that was hard to come by. Speaking of which, even she was surprised.
Initially, she did not have much expectation. She was surprised that she managed to obtain it in the end. She hadn’t expected Isaac to agree so readily and even offer her the precious pill, claiming it was beneficial for human health.
She was well aware that the one truly in charge of the Taylor family was Liam. So she needed his support.
But why would he abandon his own granddaughter and support an outsider like her?
Yvonne knew she needed to make herself more valuable to sway Liam’s favor away from Olivia.
And now, she had succeeded.
With Isaac’s assistance and the precious pill, her position was rock–solid. No one could threaten her status in Liam’s heart, not even William.
She chuckled inwardly. Well, it was William’s incapability for not being able to invite Isaac.
Amelia had been waiting for embarrassing photos of Olivia all day and into the night. But there was no sign of any activity from her room. She couldn’t wait any longer and pushed the door open.
Upon entering, she saw a slender figure sitting on the bed. The person’s back was very thin and seemed to be fragile. Her arms were so slender as if they could break with a slight fold. But her waist remained straight as if she was leaning against the wall.
The posture was casual yet elegant.
Amelia came from a prominent family, so she had seen many
debutantes. Under this influence, she had high standards for a woman’s posture and was quite picky about it.
But no matter how critical she was, she couldn’t find any fault in Olivia’s
posture.
She was pleased with what she saw and instinctively nodded. However, her gaze then fell upon the coat by the bed, and her expression turned to disgust.

She was wearing even a non–branded coat, something she couldn’t even recognize. It was like a street market purchase.
To Amelia, it seemed to lower the decorum of the entire room.
Normally, Olivia should have some money on hand. Apart from the research bonuses she gained, she also received dividends from Charm. Yet, she remained so frugal and unwilling to even buy a decent piece of clothing.
Her stinginess was extreme, and Amelia couldn’t help but disdain Olivia for this.
She found her destitute, miserly, and timid.
“Do you want to go to the washroom?” Amelia asked. She leaned against the doorframe, anticipating to witness Olivia’s pleading expression.
However, Olivia only raised her head slightly and showed no signs of the expected begging. Her expression remained icy cold.
“Aren’t you the one who forbade me from going?” Olivia countered.
“You’re somewhat clever.” Amelia chuckled softly. “I wanted to humiliate you. This is what you deserve. You should have anticipated this day when you harmed Emma. If you are willing to kneel down and apologize to her, I’ll consider letting you off.”
Olivia seemed unaffected by Amelia’s words, keeping her head lowered and remaining silent.
Amelia’s brows furrowed, and her patience waned. “Did you hear what I said? If you don’t want to be humiliated, then kneel down and beg Emma for forgiveness! You…”
Before she could finish her sentence, she felt a sudden shadow before her. Before she could comprehend what was happening, her body was forcefully pinned against the wall, and a hand was gripping her throat tightly.
Amelia was startled, her pupils dilating as she stared fixedly at Olivia. right in front of her.
What was she trying to do?
Olivia’s right hand was pressed against her neck. Her arms were so thin that it seemed they could snap with a gentle twist, yet at this moment, they felt like iron limbs, exerting a pressuring force with a howling intensity.
“You…” Amelia was shocked.

Olivia gazed at her calmly. “Did you think the Taylor family could really lock me up? Amelia, you’re underestimating me too much!
“As long as I want to, the Taylor family can’t stop me at all. As long as I want to, Emma won’t be able to see the sun tomorrow. The reason I’m not resisting, surrendering willingly to your bullying, is because you bestowed the gift of life upon me. Because I still held illusions about you. I believed that maternal bond was inherent, that all mothers in the world love their children.”

“It was you who made me realize that reality is not like that. In this world, there are also some mothers who wish their own daughters dead!
“The thing I regret the most in this world is reuniting with you. If we had never met, my gentle mother, the one who used to call me her beloved little princess, would still live in my memories. Instead of today, tearing apart the facade of memories, revealing the terrifying truth.”
Olivia’s words were measured, each syllable heavy.
With every word, her breath intensified, as if she was trying to release all her longing and yearning, expelling every trace of innocence and purity buried deep within her.
“From now on, you mean nothing to me. When I care about you, you can hurt me as much as you want. When I don’t care about you, you’re just a stranger to me.”
Olivia’s tone became softer and softer. Her expression became more indifferent, and her gaze became calmer. It was as if she was extracting a certain emotion from within her.
Watching Olivia like this, Amelia suddenly trembled. In her mind, a scene flashed by a little girl dressed in the same style as her, waving and saying goodbye, running further and further away.
“No, please come back quickly…” Amelia whispered, her hand instinctively reaching out.
She flailed her arms and lunged forward.
At this moment, she realized that Olivia had already let go of her.
Olivia’s back was turned to her, her gaze penetrating through the window to a distant place.
“Get out.” Her voice was incredibly calm, devoid of any fluctuations, not even a hint of hatred.
She truly treated her as a stranger now.
In that instant, Amelia felt lost and disoriented. Her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but ultimately, she didn’t utter a word. She turned around dejectedly and left.
Lynn, who had been waiting at the door, approached with concern as she noticed Amelia’s emotional state. “Amelia, did she make you angry?”

Amelia shook her head absentmindedly and then glanced at the closed door, forcefully closing her eyes. When she opened them again, all signs of desolation were gone. She returned to being the elegant and dignified woman she was known as.
Gazing at the door, Amelia’s lips moved for a while. Eventually, she made up her mind and said, “Keep an eye on her, don’t let her go to the
restroom.”
With that, she left in disarray. Instead of returning to her own room, she hurried to Emma’s room.
As soon as Emma opened the door, Amelia tightly embraced her. Olivia was bewildered. “Amelia, what’s wrong with you?”
Amelia shook her head. “Emma, you’re my only daughter now.”
At her words, Olivia’s eyes softened, and she responded, “I acknowledge you as my only… ” She paused, thinking of Evelyn, then continued, “I only have you as my mother.”
In her mind, she thought, “That’s right, you are my mother, and Evelyn is my biological mother. It’s not conflicting!”
After calming Amelia down, Emma hesitated for a while, then decided to take a glance at Olivia.
Emma sensed that something was off with Amelia’s mood. It seemed that there had been a conflict between her and Olivia. Emma was perceptive and could tell that Amelia, though in an unusual mood, wasn’t aware of Emma’s true identity.
However, she was worried that if Olivia and Amelia continued to interact, Olivia might lose control and reveal her true parentage.
Putting herself in Olivia’s shoes, she believed that Olivia wouldn’t be able to endure it for much longer. Olivia wasn’t avoiding the truth out of a lack of desire to share, but rather because the timing was not right.
If she were Olivia, Emma thought, she would wait until the fifth day when the tension reached its peak. At that moment, she would reveal Olivia’s illegitimate status, causing Amelia to deeply regret her actions.
Dressed in casual sportswear, Emma made her way to Olivia’s room.
In the room, Olivia was currently gazing out of the window. As the door creaked open, Olivia turned to look at Emma. Her expression remained unchanged, calm, and unperturbed by Emma’s attempt to trap her.
Emma had expected Olivia to be furious upon her arrival, and she had

prepared herself for how to handle that.

She thought that Olivia’s response would be a torrent of anger, but Olivia’s calmness left her uncertain about how to proceed and what to
say.
After a moment of silence, Emma finally spoke, “You can leave later. I’ll open the door for you tonight.”
Olivia raised an eyebrow, casually surveying Emma with an indifferent expression, showing no signs of being affected by her scheme.
Biting her lower lip, Emma continued, “I know you don’t believe me, but are you really planning to stay here for five days? Amelia has made her decision that she won’t let you go to the restroom. We all have our needs but can you guarantee that you won’t embarrass yourself?”
“Do you think I can’t leave?” Olivia suddenly laughed.
Her laughter was rare, but it carried a sense of breaking through clouds and revealing the moon. It was as if the entire room was lit up by her smile.
Olivia walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, crossing her long legs with an innate grace that made her seem naturally superior.
Yet, this side of her was seldom seen. Most of the time, she was modest and cautious.
This was the first time she had revealed her true self to Emma.
“Have a seat.” Olivia tapped her chin lightly and gestured to Emma. Her words carried an enigmatic power that seemed to compel Emma. Emma found herself unable to resist and took a seat in front of Olivia.
“It’s not that I can’t leave,” Olivia said while lowering her gaze. She absentmindedly toyed with a gold pendant on her wrist. “I just don’t want
to.”
Emma’s expression changed upon hearing this. She thought Olivia might be trying to stay in the mansion and seek forgiveness from the Taylor family.
“Amelia won’t forgive you!” Emma asserted firmly.
Upon hearing this, Olivia raised her head slightly and suddenly said, “Do you know about the experiment I’ve been conducting recently?”
Emma was taken aback, not expecting the conversation to shift to experiments.

However, Olivia’s next words clarified her confusion. “It’s a very important experiment. You wouldn’t understand even if I explained it to you. But there’s something you should know.”
Olivia pointed upward and said, ‘Do you know about satellite positioning? Because of the experiment, I’m carrying a tracking device that records everything happening around me in real time. In other words, everything about the day I fell into the water has been captured as footage and recorded in the laboratory.”
Realizing the implications behind Olivia’s words, Emma shuddered. Her temples throbbed, and her vision seemed to darken.
She could not believe it. Trembling, she stood up and pointed at Olivia. “You’re lying! If there’s really a recording, why didn’t you show it that day to prove yourself? You’re lying! How could a satellite monitor an ordinary person like you? What kind of experiment is so important?”
Emma’s extreme fear robbed her of her rationality. Her back was covered in cold sweat.
Olivia looked at her calmly. “That day, I did intend to show it…”
But then, why didn’t she? Olivia’s voice trailed off.
Thinking of the reactions of the Taylor family that day, Olivia sneered inwardly.
How amusing it was. She had actually held some hope for them.
How naive she was.
However, this was also good. Only by completely shattering her naivety and hope could she completely give up.

Olivia did not care about being framed. She believed that she had numerous ways to prove herself if she wanted to, even to the extent of pointing out the logical flaws in their accusations. She was confident in her ability to unravel their allegations.
However, what amused her was that the members of the Taylor family weren’t interested in knowing the truth. They only wanted Olivia to take the blame and admit guilt.
In their minds, they had already sentenced her to death, making her struggle futile.
Regarding the text message, it couldn’t possibly prove her connection to the criminal. She could easily contact the mobile carrier to retrieve call records and duration. If she were truly involved with the culprit, there would be more than just one text message to establish a pattern of communication.
The initial steps of finding the individual, and arranging his entry into the hotel all of that required communication.
With decades of experience and wisdom, Liam should’ve detected the oddities of the situation. As long as he got someone to investigate slightly, he would be able to discover the truth.
Yet, he hadn’t investigated. He had chosen to follow Emma’s accusation and believe Olivia’s guilt without taking the time to properly investigate the matter.
At that moment, Olivia realized it clearly.
Liam was ready to abandon her.
Perhaps it was because she still had some hope in her heart, so she wanted to ask him personally if he was going to harm her.
Even William, the one who had shown her warmth in the Taylor family, had also given up on her.
Actually, at that time, Olivia was very confused. She didn’t understand why.
Why did they do this to her?
Had she done anything outrageous? No, she hadn’t done anything that warranted such a harsh reaction from them.

Olivia couldn’t comprehend their actions, nor did she want to waste her energy trying to figure them out.
Relationships were a matter of destiny, and maybe she wasn’t meant to be a part of the Taylor family. If that was the case, she would cut ties completely and move on.
Emma had become consumed by madness. Olivia glanced at her and calmly said, “If I wanted to leave, I would have already. None of those people could stop me.”
While she might not be as physically strong as those men, Olivia had numerous strategies at her disposal. She had various drugs and devices with her, and she could easily send a distress signal to receive assistance from others.
She had chosen to surrender since she considered their kindness in giving birth to her.
Olivia’s thoughts were straightforward and open, but Emma couldn’t understand.
Emma’s mind was convoluted, like a twisting stream, making it difficult for her to understand the vast expanse of others‘ hearts.
In Emma’s eyes, Olivia had orchestrated these events. She had the means to defend herself, yet she deliberately concealed them. She wanted to take on a pose of innocence to deal a fatal blow at the last moment.
Emma was convinced that Olivia intended to expose her illegitimate identity publicly after enduring all the humiliation.
In this way, the more ruthless Amelia was to her, the more regretful she would be in the end. Then, Amelia would take her anger out on Emma.
Emma recalled the time when Amelia had embraced her in the room, claiming to be her only daughter. She realized that Amelia could flip her emotions in an instant, from affection to resentment, from support to condemnation. This thought sent shivers down her spine.
No, she couldn’t allow that to happen.
Emma forced herself to calm down and fixed her gaze on Olivia. “Do you know why Liam isn’t on your side? Do you know why I would frame you so easily?”
Olivia responded, “Because of Yvonne.”
Upon hearing Olivia’s words, Emma’s reaction was like that of a startled lamb. She trembled and raised her eyes in shock. “How do you know?”

Olivia raised an eyebrow slightly. “Is it that difficult to guess?” It was merely a straightforward deduction.
She wasn’t incapable of unraveling convoluted schemes like these, but she simply couldn’t be bothered to waste her effort.
She preferred straightforwardness and open–mindedness. There was no wrong with striving openly for what one liked. But why would people engage in hidden machinations behind other’s backs?
Only those with weak capabilities and inferiority complexes resorted to such schemes, hiding in the shadows, and employing manipulation and cunning.
For instance, Yvonne had resorted to such lowly tactics, as demonstrated by her suicide attempt.
Hearing the disdain in Olivia’s tone for Yvonne and comparing it to her fear of Yvonne, Emma felt uncomfortable. She felt that she was inferior to Olivia.
Emma’s tone carried a note of scorn as she said, “Don’t be too arrogant. Yvonne had to rely on a suicide attempt to gain pity during her last visit to the Taylor family. By exploiting Amy’s compassion, she managed to drive you away. But now, her status in the Taylor family is stable. She doesn’t need to say a word while the Taylor family will automatically keep you away from her.”
“Tell me, what has she offered the Taylor family?” Olivia hit the nail on the head.
She had seen through the facade of the Taylor family members. If Yvonne didn’t have something substantial to offer, Liam and William wouldn’t have so readily abandoned her.
After all, Olivia had even won the Lasker Award.
Olivia’s intelligence and insight made Emma uncomfortable. She had always looked down on Olivia, considering her a bumpkin.
But every time they clashed, Emma always ended up losing.
Olivia’s casual demeanor and reasoning effortlessly dismantled her arguments. If it hadn’t been for Yvonne’s assistance, Emma wouldn’t have been able to compete against Olivia.
This woman was unbelievably sharp.
Emma composed herself and continued, “Do you know about the renowned doctor Isaac?”

Olivia raised an eyebrow.
Emma assumed that Olivia didn’t know and felt triumphant. “Of course not. You’re just a bookworm. You probably don’t even know about Isaac. Let me tell you, in today’s society, it’s not just about excelling academically and winning awards. Networking and resources are more valuable than mere academic achievements.”
Seeing Olivia’s furrowed brow, Emma became more and more proud as she spoke. “Isaac is the most formidable physician today, with miraculous medical skills. Countless dignitaries are eager to have him treat their illnesses. However, he’s protected by the state as he is a top–notch doctor. People like you, ordinary citizens, probably haven’t even heard of him.”
Just as she was speaking, Lynn suddenly knocked on the door and entered. She announced that they were going to move Olivia to the basement to accommodate Yvonne’s stay on the second floor. They wanted to remove the annoying person to avoid affecting Yvonne’s stay.
“See?” Emma pointed at Lynn and then turned to Olivia. There was a smug expression on her face. “Without a doubt, between you and Yvonne, Liam has chosen Yvonne. While you’re busy with your academic achievements, having no value to the Taylor family, Yvonne managed to bring the renowned doctor to treat Liam’s leg.”
Olivia had been calm and quiet throughout Emma and Lynn’s
conversation. She finally looked up when Emma mentioned “treating Liam’s leg“.
“Is the renowned doctor you’re talking about named Isaac Smith from Layfield City?”
Emma was stunned, her eyes wide, disbelief evident in her gaze as she stared at Olivia. Her tone became wary. “How do you know?”
It was true.
Olivia had previously suspected that she might have misheard. However, hearing Emma confirm it, she couldn’t control her emotions any longer. and burst into laughter,
“Interesting, truly interesting!” Olivia’s eyes sparkled with amusement as she looked at Emma. She asked a question with a sly smile.
“Didn’t you investigate my background?”

It was so funny. How could there be such a funny thing in this world? Olivia was laughing so hard that she was crying. She wiped the corners of her eyes and calmed herself down. Then, she stared at Emma.
Emma frowned. “Why are you staring at me like that?”
Lynn chimed in from the side with a sarcastic tone. “Olivia seems to have been provoked. While Yvonne is able to invite Isaac for Liam, Olivia only knows how to irritate him.”
With a mix of irony, she continued, “While other people contribute to the family, there are still some people with bad intentions. Not only do they fail to help the family but they also harm others. Comparing you to Yvonne, it’s like comparing heaven and earth. Even though Yvonne isn’t officially from the Taylor family, she managed to bring Isaac. She’s wholeheartedly considering the Taylor family’s interests. After Isaac heals Liam’s leg, her position will be even more secure.”
Listening to Lynn’s bizarre words, Olivia’s face remained calm, showing no signs of anger. She remained as calm as a still pond. She simply lifted her eyes slightly and retorted. “Heal his leg?”
Lynn’s eyes were filled with disdain. She pointed at the locust and scolded, “People are really different. Some people come back to the Taylor family and only think about gaining shares for themselves, being selfish, and harming others. But some people return to the Taylor family with pure intentions, genuinely wishing to help Liam receive medical treatment. After Isaac heals Liam’s leg, Liam might come over and personally break the legs of his disobedient grandchildren!”
Olivia paid no attention to Lynn’s mockery. Her expression remained cold and clear, exuding an inherent nobility and elegance. She didn’t need to speak; a mere glance was enough to suppress Lynn’s arrogance.
“So, you’re saying that Isaac can personally heal Liam’s leg?” Olivia asked.
Lynn rolled her eyes. “He’s a divine physician. It’s obvious he can heal him!”
Olivia chuckled lightly, lightly swaying her fingers before calmly
speaking. “How about we make a bet? I bet that the divine physician won’t be able to heal his leg.”
“Why are you so vicious?” Lynn’s expression was ferocious. “No matter

what, Liam is still your elder. If you curse others, you’ll be punished by the heavens.”
“Can’t I tell you the truth?” Olivia asked innocently.
When she had first arrived at the Taylor family, she had seen Liam’s leg, which was already in a state of decay. There was almost no hope of recovery from such an illness. Even Olivia herself only had a 60% of confidence.
Moreover, back then, she didn’t have the Ice Needle with her and the effects of other silver needles were significantly inferior. That was why she hadn’t said anything at the time.
Isaac’s medical skills were indeed excellent, but they fell slightly short compared to Olivia’s, especially when it came to the usage of the Ice Needle. Liam could only achieve 30% effectiveness with it, while Olivia could reach 90%.
Emma wasn’t sure why Olivia was so confident in saying that Isaac wouldn’t be able to heal Liam’s leg, but she didn’t care much about it. Her main goal was to redirect Olivia’s attention to Yvonne. Now that she had achieved that, she felt somewhat relieved.
She asked Lynn to leave, leaving only the two of them in the room.
Emma asked, “Are you going to expose my true identity?”
Olivia looked coldly at Emma and answered, “If I wanted to reveal everything, I would have done it already.”
Hearing that Olivia had no intention of exposing her, Emma breathed a sigh of relief. However, she did not fully trust Emma and decided to issue a veiled threat. “I hope you understand that even if everything is revealed, I will still be considered a daughter of the Taylor family. If anything, you would have done me a favor by helping prove my identity. But as for Amelia, things might not go well for her.”
Amelia had been emotionally stable for the past few years and hadn’t suffered any episodes. However, nobody could predict how she would react when facing the truth.
Her beloved adopted daughter turning out to be her husband’s illegitimate child was a truth that anyone would find hard to accept.
“Your threats don’t work on me,” Olivia replied, her tone indifferent. “I no longer care about her. Whether she’s crazy or foolish, it’s none of my
concern.”

Emma’s heart tightened. She was about to say something in response. But Olivia’s voice turned cold again. “However, as a doctor, my ethics prevent me from provoking a mentally unstable patient.”
“As a doctor?” Emma was puzzled and was about to ask for an explanation, but Olivia had already ordered her to leave.
“Leave now.” And with that, the conversation ended.
Emma was unwilling to leave, but Olivia’s attitude was truly cold and her presence was strong. She did not dare to stay any longer and could only turn around and leave.
After returning to her room, Emma still felt uneasy.
She did not believe what Olivia said at all.
Today, Olivia spoke with such confidence that she wouldn’t expose the truth, putting on a virtuous act. But when tomorrow came and the Taylor family took back the shares, Olivia would become a complete pauper.
She wanted to see if Olivia would regret her decisions.
At that time, Emma was sure Olivia would cry, beg, and even kneel down to beg for mercy. She would do anything to avoid being cut off from the Taylor family.
After all, those were shares of the Taylor family, even if it was only 3%. The annual dividends amounted to hundreds of millions. And that was just the dividends. If it was sold, it could be worth over a few billions. This was money that many people could not earn even if they worked hard for their entire lives.
In addition to the Taylor family’s shares, Amelia still had 3% of the shares from the Green family. The Green family was a super wealthy family not inferior to the Taylor family.
Even if Olivia won a Nobel Prize, she wouldn’t be able to earn that much
money.
After thinking for a while, Emma tried to find Susan’s phone number to gather some information from her.
“Hello, Miss Emma. How can I help you?” Susan was polite, unaware of Olivia’s current situation.
Emma’s tone was condescending as she got straight to the point. “You’re connected to the Charm, right? Do you know how many shares Olivia has in the Charm?”

Susan did not want to reveal anything about Olivia, but share ownership wasn’t exactly a private matter since it could usually be found online. So she replied, “35%.”
“So much!” Emma was shocked. Wasn’t she just developing some new technology? Why was it worth so many shares? She had thought Olivia only had a small number of shares, maybe just a few percent. She hadn’t expected Olivia to have 35%.
Though the Charm was a newly established company, it was backed by the international Olle Group, making it financially strong. Its development was impressive in the past few years, with reported revenues breaking one billion dollars.
However, for a newly established business, it wasn’t guaranteed that there would be dividends in the first few years. Even though Olivia held such a large number of shares, it didn’t necessarily mean she would receive any money.
Emma let out a sigh of relief and probed as if she was joking. “So many shares! If she’s so wealthy, why does she live so frugally?”
At this point, she chuckled and said in a mocking tone, “She can’t afford to buy current season fashion, but she can definitely get last season’s on sale. I’ve heard the discounts are huge. I mean, even if she can’t buy luxury brands, she could at least get some good quality lesser–known brands. Instead, she always wears cheap and simple clothes, some of which don’t even have labels. That’s just being too stingy.”
Emma really couldn’t help but look down on Olivia. Even if she couldn’t afford luxury brands, there were other options. It seemed like Olivia was being overly frugal, wearing simple and cheap clothes, some of which didn’t even have labels.
It was so embarrassing.
After hearing this, Susan remained silent for a long time.
Then, stammering, she said, “Miss Emma, are you misunderstanding something? Olivia’s clothes are all custom–made. There’s only one of each design in the world.”
Emma was stunned.
