Billionaire’s Missing Darling (Olivia and Daniel) novel Chapter 229

Chapter 229 

The male attendant who received the token immediately turned around and bowed respectfully to Olivia. He said respectfully, “Please wait a moment. I’ll get the butler to come over.” 

David frowned. He did not know why the male attendant’s attitude suddenly changed. 

His gaze landed on the cross and paused for a moment. It looked very familiar as if he had seen it somewhere before. 

However, he could not remember for the time being. 

David had an impatient personality and was quite temperamental. Although he had been trying his best to restrain himself for the past half a year and had already achieved some results, when he got angry occasionally, he still could not control his emotions. 

With a cold expression, he frowned and looked at the male attendant. “What’s going on? Are my words useless?” 

After getting on good terms with Athene, David came to the Duke’s Mansion a few times. Because Athene valued him, the servants in the mansion were very respectful to David. Even the Duke was very kind to him. 

David was used to bossing people around in the Duke’s Mansion. 

At this moment, the male attendant’s disobedience caused him to frown subconsciously. He was very displeased. 

The male attendant was in a difficult position. 

Of these two people, one was a friend that Athene valued, and the other was holding the duke’s token in her hand, and the two of them were in a confrontation. 

He was in a dilemma and did not know which side to help. 

The male attendant handed the cross necklace to the attendant beside him and asked him to find the butler. 

He stayed where he was and looked at David apologetically. “Sir, this is the Duke’s banquet. You and this lady are both our guests. If you have any conflicts, can you resolve them in private?” 

David frowned. 

Seeing this, Bruce took a step forward and approached David. He said

curiously, “That’s right, David. Why do you have to make things difficult for this beauty? It’s not good to cause trouble at the Duke’s banquet.” Hearing Bruce’s question, the others nodded curiously. 

“Make things difficult?” David sneered and pointed at Olivia. “Do you know who she is? Do you know what she had done?” 

Who was she? What did she do? 

Everyone’s curiosity was piqued as they looked at David. 

David snorted and looked at Olivia as if he wanted to tear her apart. “Speaking of which, it’s quite embarrassing. She’s somewhat related to me. She’s the child our family lost for 18 years and have just found.” As soon as he finished speaking, gasps sounded. 

Even Mia went up to Olivia and exclaimed, “He’s from that Taylor family?” 

David lowered his eyes. 

During the time he had been overseas, he had matured a lot. He was no longer as unscrupulous as before. After all, overseas was not Evervale. There was no Taylor family to protect him. 

Thus, he learned how to use scheming. 

Chasing Olivia out of the banquet would only embarrass her once. 

What he wanted was to ruin her reputation completely! 

He was going to treat Olivia the same way Olivia had treated Emma. An eye for an eye. 

He wanted everyone to know how cold–blooded and ungrateful Olivia was for sending Emma to prison. 

Mia’s face was pale as he stared nervously at David’s lips. 

One’s reputation was important but also not really important. 

For ordinary people, being slandered only meant they had to change location, find a place where no one knew them, and start over. 

However, it was a completely different thing for a famous young scientist like Olivia. 

Almost everyone knew her. Plus, she was on the rise in her career. 

If she was slandered and her reputation was ruined, the public would question her character and even her scientific research results. 

This might turn out to be extremely deadly!

Seeing that Mia was trembling in fear, David curled his lips and sneered. He was about to speak. 

Olivia suddenly said, “Shut up!” 

She stood up and handed the wine glass to the waiter beside her. Then, she pinched the space between her eyebrows and suppressed the frustration in the corners of her eyes. 

She could not be bothered to listen to David’s brainless words. 

In the past, when he accompanied Gillian to watch TV, there was always one thing Olivia could not understand about the protagonists in the show. 

Why did they not stop the villain in action? Why did they have to wait until the villain slandered them in public before thinking of a way to fight back and argue with the villain? 

If it were her, she would not have given the villain a chance to speak. 

She felt it was a waste of time, saliva, and emotions. 

She had come to the banquet to relax, not to argue with a retard. 

Olivia quickly took out her phone, opened the New York Times to find her interview, and signaled David. Her tone was impatient. 

“You’ve got the wrong person! I have nothing to do with the Taylor family, and I’m not your sister. As for reporting Emma, I believe in the justice system. If you have any objections, go to the court and the police. Don’t come to me.” 

Olivia was really annoyed by David. It was rare for her to say so much. “If you’re sick in the head, get it treated. If you’re mentally retarded, go see a doctor, and stay at home when the doctor confirms your condition. Don’t come out and bite people!” 

“You!” David felt his blood rush to his head in an instant. He was so engaged that his head was spinning. 

“Shut up!” Olivia suddenly looked up. Her tone was calm, but it was mixed with sharpness and impatience. Her gaze was like a sword as it shot straight at David. “I told you to shut up. Didn’t you hear me? Emma’s in jail because she deserved it. If you’re dissatisfied and not happy with it, go get a lawyer to defend her. Don’t run in front of me and cry.” 

David’s mind buzzed and went blank. 

He was anxious and furious, but more than that, he was at a loss. His gaze was fixed on the paragraph about Olivia’s parents in the interview.
