Chapter 170
Olivia was on the phone. She tilted her head slightly and lowered her eyes. The cuff of her right hand that was holding the phone curled up, revealing her delicate wrist, which was flawless and cold.
She stood at the corner of the passageway. There were not many people coming and going. Only a few people passed by occasionally.
When other people passed by her and were in the same frame as her, it was as if they were like two painting styles, like people in different worlds. Her light firmly suppressed them.
Zoila, horrified, had wanted to ask Olivia for help, but she was stunned. It wasn’t until Olivia finished her call and walked toward Zoila that Zoila slowly came to her senses.
Then, Zoila recalled everything that had happened just now.
The fear slowly rose in her eyes, and her body could not help but tremble.
It wasn’t until that moment that Zoila realized the weight of the divine doctor’s granddaughter that Zoe was talking about.
Last night, Zoila treated the national chess player as an ordinary chess teacher because of her ignorance. Zoe then told her about Olivia’s identity and Olivia’s relationship with the Smith family.
Zoila was more ashamed and embarrassed after hearing Zoe’s words just then. She was ashamed of her ignorance but did not feel much about Olivia’s identity.
Looking at Olivia walking toward her, Zoila subconsciously clenched her fists. A chill rose from the bottom of her feet, and she instinctively wanted to retreat.
What… else did Olivia want to do?
Olivia casually threw her phone into her pocket and raised her hand to tap a spot on Zoila’s shoulder.
Zoila felt her body relax, and the blockage in her throat disappeared. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Olivia’s gentle and apologetic voice. “I had something urgent to do just then. I’m sorry for scaring you.”
Zoila looked up in shock.
Was… Olivia apologizing to her?

Would such a big shot like Olivia apologize?
A fire suddenly ignited in Zoila’s heart, warming her entire body. Olivia’s actions had overturned her previous understanding. In Zoila’s impression, people with abilities and higher status tended to have a bad temper. They had a rightful arrogance that made it almost difficult for them to lower their figure and apologize.
However, Olivia was totally different. Zoila didn’t see Olivia
condescending when they spent their time together. Olivia’s cold attitude carried just the right amount of equal respect.
Before knowing Olivia’s true identity and ability, Zoila had looked down on Olivia. Although Zoila tried hard to hide it, she still showed some of it in her every move.
However, Olivia never got angry or fussed over it. She only smiled indifferently and did not take it to her heart.
This was what a real socialite looked like. Olivia was magnanimous, calm, and generous.
Zoila felt she was being too petty when she thought about her previous behavior.
Zoila blushed and couldn’t help but say, “It’s my fault. I’m too talkative and meddlesome.”
Olivia was fixing Andrew’s sleeves. When she heard Zoila’s words, she glanced up at Zoila and nodded. “Yes. You are indeed a little meddlesome.”
Zoila couldn’t say a word.
She was a little confused. Wasn’t Olivia magnanimous and open–minded? Why did Olivia become different?
Just as Zoila was in a daze, she heard Olivia say, “However, you are sincere about Andrew. Sincerity is the rarest thing in this world.”
Olivia’s voice was faint and had an indescribable charm. “I still remember the first time I saw you. Those were the most beautiful eyes I’ve ever seen. They were sincere and clear, filled with admiration and yearning.” Speaking of which, Olivia paused. “For such beautiful eyes,” said Olivia, glancing intently at Zoila. “I hope they will always be clear and sincere. Even if the eyes are obscured temporarily, they will become clear again one day.”
Then Olivia ignored Zoila, who was stunned, picked up Andrew, and

walked out.
Zoila was stunned for a long time before she quickly caught up.
Her heart was in turmoil, and her eyes were filled with a burning light. She seemed to know why Andrew liked Olivia so much.
Because Olivia was worth being liked and had the purest and most open–minded heart.
Zoila ran a few steps to catch up to Olivia. Zoila had a lot to say at that moment. She chased after Olivia and was about to speak when she caught Olivia’s sudden glance.
It was gentle and irresistible.
Zoila instinctively stopped and subconsciously slowed down. She naturally followed three steps behind Olivia to protect her.
It was a submissive posture!
Olivia sent Andrew to the hotel and instructed Zoe to take him back to Evervale.
“What about you?” asked Zoe, looking worried.
Olivia said, “I have some urgent matters to attend to.”
Zoe nodded and did not continue asking, but her eyes were filled with worry.
Zoe began to pack her things and prepared to leave the place after Olivia left. When she was almost done packing, she asked Zoila to contact Daniel and ask for his opinion.
Should they stay or leave? If they left, should they take a plane or a high–speed train?
Zoila was packing her things in the living room. When she heard Zoe, she waved her phone and said, “I’ve booked the high–speed train tickets. There are still two hours. We’ll leave in a while.”
Zoila was stunned and said, “Why did you book the tickets? We haven’t contacted Mr. Sullivan yet. We have to wait for Mr. Sullivan to make a decision!”
Zoila did not mind. She still looked a little puzzled as she said, “Why should we wait for Mr. Sullivan to decide? Miss Olivia has said that she wants us to leave as soon as possible.”
Zoe felt suffocated. She stared at Zoila for a long time, unable to say anything.
