Billionaire’s Missing Darling

Chapter 66

Chapter 66

After making the call and arranging for the mercenaries to protect Olivia, Daniel leaned back in his chair and suddenly sneered.

The man leaned back in his chair. He didn’t sit up straight, and his posture was even a little crooked. If anyone else sat like this, they would definitely be labeled as indecent or ruffian. However, when it came to Daniel, there was a charm to it.

Daniel recalled that five years ago, Olivia was only 18 years old. She was lively and energetic every single day. Olivia would go out to play hard during the day and could still read novels when she came back at night. As she read, Olivia would bite her lip and smile at Daniel like a little fool.

When asked what she was laughing at, Olivia would say that she was reading novels about a CEO. In the novel, the male lead was very stupid. He had an IQ of 180, but he could not see through the clumsy tricks of the supporting female role. The CEO inevitably misunderstood. He was rich and powerful, but as long as the female lead went overseas, he would not be able to find her. The CEO was powerful. He had countless bodyguards around him, but he could never protect the female lead. If anything happened, the female lead would always be the one who was injured.

What kind of overbearing CEO was this? The male lead was more like an idiot.

At that time, Daniel discussed the novel with Olivia. Daniel said that it was wrong for Olivia to judge the male lead like that. There would always be a limit to a person’s strength. Mistakes were inevitable.

Now that Daniel had become a domineering CEO, he realized that the CEO in the novel was indeed stupid.

Daniel did not care if there was a scheme or not. He did not care how the supporting actress framed the female lead. He did not need to distinguish or see through it. He only needed to stand behind Olivia immediately.

If Olivia encountered danger, Daniel would protect her immediately.

That was enough!

Didn’t he work so hard to become so powerful so that he could protect Olivia?

After breakfast, Mr. Wilson invited Olivia to participate in the

team–building event as previously arranged.

Olivia was a little hesitant. This was a company event. She worried that it would be inappropriate for her to go over. Just as she was about to refuse, Olivia heard Mr. Wilson say, “Ms. Taylor, you can be there for Mr. Andrew.”

Olivia nodded as soon as she heard that she was there for Andrew.

Andrew seemed to understand as well. She stood obediently beside Olivia. “Olivia, I’ll be good and stay by your side.”

When Mr. Wilson heard this, he first glanced at Daniel and then at Andrew. Mr. Wilson was amazed by Olivia’s charm. She had both Andrew and his father under her spell.

Olivia was prepared to accompany Andrew. However, before they set off, Ethan and Emma came together.

Emma’s gaze shifted between Daniel and Olivia. Emma smiled and said, “Just now, Ethan rented a boat. The weather is cool now, and it’s a good time to take in the lake view. I heard that there is some lotus in the east. Olivia, let’s go take a look together.”

Olivia was bending over to fix Andrew’s collar. When she heard Emma’s words, Olivia looked up and said, “You sent me a message previously saying that you have something to tell me. Tell me now.”

Emma’s face turned red. She did not expect Olivia to be so blunt.

Sensing that Ethan and Daniel were looking at her, Emma pursed her lips. slightly and calmed down. Emma asked, “I thought you didn’t care? I called you just now and asked you out, but you didn’t respond. I thought you didn’t want to know.”

After saying that, Emma revealed an aggrieved expression, as if she did not understand why Olivia changed her mind.

Ethan asked curiously, “What did you want to talk about?”

Olivia glanced at Ethan and said calmly, “Emma was going to tell me why I got lost back then.”

Upon hearing this, Ethan’s expression changed. He turned to Emma in surprise. “How did you know?” Ethan was surprised. Emma was even younger than Olivia. How did Emma know that Olivia had gone missing? Emma’s eyes suddenly turned cold, but she quickly calmed down. She looked at Ethan and said softly, “How would I know? Olivia is joking. Can’t

you tell?”

Joking? Ethan was a little confused. Just as he was about to turn around and ask Olivia, he heard Emma suddenly cheer, “Lola, Ella, why are you here?”

Emma happily went forward and held the girls‘ hands. Then, Emma happily came to Olivia and introduced the girls, “This is Lola and Ella, my good friends. Let’s go to the boat together later.”

Ethan had no objections to this. He only turned to ask Olivia.

Of course, Olivia did not want to spend time with the people she did not like. Since Olivia had already given up on Ethan, there was no need to waste any more time. Olivia was about to refuse.

The round–faced girl called Lola suddenly said in a fake and displeased tone, “Olivia, could it be that you don’t welcome us? And you don’t want to play with us?”

Lola seemed to be joking, but her words were aggressive. There was even a hint of mockery in her eyes as she stared at Olivia. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Before Olivia could speak, Emma held Lola’s hand nervously and tried to smooth things over. “No, no, how can that be? Olivia is the gentlest and most amiable person. How could she not welcome you?”

As she spoke, Emma turned to Olivia. “Isn’t that right, Olivia?”

This was a common method used by Emma’s girl group to force others to do things they were unwilling to do. Women of their status came from noble backgrounds. No matter how much they looked down on each other, and how many conflicts there were, the women were always amiable from the look of it.

It was what their fake friendship was like.

Having known each other for many years, they had a tacit understanding. When Lola received news from Emma that Emma wanted her and Elaine to help separate Olivia and Daniel, Lola had already thought of a way.

People like Daniel would not be willing to be with women like them.

As long as Olivia was firmly tied to them, Daniel would naturally have to separate from Olivia.

When she saw Olivia’s refusal, Lola quickly said something and stopped Olivia from rejecting it.

If Olivia did not go to the boat with them, it meant that she didn’t welcome them.

Lola and Elaine were also born into wealthy families. They were much more innocent than Olivia, who had been retrieved from outside. Lola didn’t believe that Olivia would dare to offend them.

Olivia’s attention was not on the few of them. When she heard Emma’s question, Olivia was still a little confused. After a moment of silence, she looked up with a cold expression.

“Why should I welcome you?”

Lola’s expression changed. She had never been humiliated like this before. For a moment, she could not control her tone. “What do you mean?”

Olivia looked up and glanced at Lola indifferently.

Lola was stunned. She felt uneasy as if Olivia had seen through her from inside out. It was as if all of Lola’s thoughts had been revealed.

Olivia ignored Lola. Instead, Olivia grabbed Ethan and asked, “Do you welcome them?”

Olivia’s eyes were amber. When she looked at people quietly, there was a hint of coldness, like glass beads soaking in a cold lake.

Ethan was taken aback by the gaze. He replied blankly, “I don’t.”

Hearing this, Lola’s face instantly darkened, and her entire body stiffened.

His heart tightened and he felt a lump in his throat.
