Billionaire’s Missing Darling (Olivia and Daniel) novel Chapter 87

Chapter 87 

Because of Daniels arrival, breakfast at the Taylor residence was exceptionally lavish. All the family members were present, including William, who rushed back from his business trip overnight

Daniel naturally took his place next to Liam, in the most distinguished spot. Olivia was sitting on his other side

The breakfast spread was diverse, featuring both Eastern and Western cuisines. Daniel preferred a light breakfast so he ate pancakes and cereal. Yvonne kept her head down. Since Daniel’s arrival, she had remained quiet, not uttering a word

She ate quickly and was the first to put down her cutlery. She then looked up with a smile at everyone, her eyes shining brightly. I listened to Emma’s violin performance last night and found it quite melodious, Today, I’d like to share a piece as well.” 

Liam applauded and looked at Yvonne with a loving gaze. Good, Yvonne, that’s thoughtful of you.” 

Yvonne picked up the violin and played a lively tune. It was perfectly suited for the morning, setting a positive atmosphere

After the piece concluded. Emma was also eager to try. She smiled and said, Let me play a song too

It was the spirited and moving melody from the previous night

It was a tune favored by Amelia, so Yvonne often played it. The piece was said to be composed by a tenyearold girl, and therefore, there was a hint of childishness in the tine

When it was over, Amelia applauded Emma and said proudly, Our Taylor family’s daughters are truly talented.” 

Yvonne covered her mouth and smiled. Amelia, don’t praise me so much, I’m getting embarrassed.” 

Why be embarrassed? You’re really good at the violin,Amelia responded with pride

Yvonne brushed back her hair and suddenly looked at Olivia. Olivia, how about you play a piece too? Let’s consider it the three of us sisters adding some excitement for everyone.” 

As soon as she finished speaking, the lively restaurant instantly fell silent

Even the servants moved with delicate footsteps, afraid to make a sound. Without showing any traces of it, Daniel frowned slightly and fixed his gaze on Yvonne

Sensing his gaze, Yvonne lowered her eyes for a moment, her lips curling up almost imperceptibly

To capture a man’s attention, one didn’t always have to please him; stirring his emotions could be just as effective

Meanwhile, Olivia was busy eating her hardboiled egg and appeared to pay no heed to Yvonne’s words, not offering any response at all

Amelia frowned. She had considered saying a word for Olivia’s sake. Knowing that Olivia did not know how to play the violin, she wanted to cover for her. However, Olivia’s behavior came across as impolite, focused only on eating without any hint of aristocratic etiquette

This irritated Amelia greatly

In a cold voice, she said, Are you deaf? Didn’t you hear Yvonne talking to you?” 

Ignoring Amelia, Olivia continued to eat the egg slowly, methodically finishing it. She then took a tissue, wiping her fingers and lips clean

Finally, she raised her gaze to cast a faint glance at Amelia without saying a word

Amelia’s expression froze momentarily. She suddenly felt as if she had been seen through. She instinctively trembled, experiencing a sensation of being exposed

Unperturbed by Amelia’s presence, Olivia got up and said, I’m done eating.” 

With that, she turned and left without sparing even the slightest face to Yvonne, treating her as though she were invisible

Even though Yvonne was skillful at hiding her emotions, a flicker of annoyance briefly appeared on her face

The rest of the Taylor family were stunned. They had never expected Olivia to behave in such a way

She completely disregarded Yvonne’s words, treating her as though she didn’t exist

Olivia had already reached the dining room’s entrance and was about to leave when Yvonne called out, Wait.”

Olivia left without stopping

Yvonne widened her eyes

The servants all turned around and could not help but snicker. Miss Olivia was so disrespectful that Ms. Yvonne was about to die of anger!After breakfast, everyone gathered in the living room, where Olivia was already seated, sipping her coffee

Yvonne had regained her composure, her cunning hidden beneath a calm demeanor. Her first words upon entering the room were an apologetic address to Olivia, laden with sincerity. I’m truly sorry about earlier. I didn’t know you couldn’t play the violin. Amelia loves the violin, and you’re her daughter. I assumed you were just like Emma, who was taught by a skilled teacher. It was only later when I was talking to Emma that I found out” 

At this point, she deliberately paused and raised her voice so that the servants serving in the living room could hear her. That you actually grew up in the countryside. Let alone learning to play the violin, you probably haven’t even seen one.” 

It’s not the countryside,” Emma quickly explained. It’s a small city.Isn’t it pretty much the same?Yvonne’s expression turned innocent. After all, you wouldn’t have had the opportunity to learn the violin.Don’t talk about it anymore.Emma lowered her gaze. Olivia is probably feeling inferior. We girls from welloff families are raised with various skills from childhood music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She didn’t have that environment. It’s already quite pitiful for her. Don’t bring up things that hurt her feelings.” 

The two of them echoed each other, seemingly pitying Olivia on the surface while subtly demeaning her, portraying her as worthless

As expected, after the two of them finished speaking, the servants in the living room looked at Olivia with disdain and no respect

Olivia was holding a cup. When she heard this, she suddenly placed the cup on the table with a sharp clink, the glass making a distinct sound

The sound was not loud, but it startled everyone in the room

She didn’t enjoy indulging in these meaningless power struggles, but if she didn’t speak up now, they would see her as an easy target

Pitiful?Olivia chuckled softly. I actually think it’s you who should be pitied.”

Yvonne looked surprised. Who are you pitying?”

Olivia’s gaze shifted to the violin being held by one of the servants. After learning the violin for so many years, you can’t even convey the emotional essence of a piece. That piece Mom in My Dreamis clearly melancholic, filled with longing, yet you played it with excessive cheerfulness.” 

Emma, who had always been proud of her violin skills, immediately retorted upon hearing this. Nonsense, it’s clearly meant to be joyful. The song is about a young girl playing hide and seek with her mother in a dream, recounting the amusing events that happened while searching for her.” 

Having said that, Emma glanced at Amelia who nodded in agreement. There was a touch of pride in her eyes. If you don’t understand, don’t talk nonsense. It’s fine if you don’t know, but if you pretend to know especially in front of outsiders, it would be an embarrassment to the Taylor family.” 

Amelia also turned to Olivia with a disapproving look. If you don’t understand, just stay quiet. No one would mistake you for a mute. Don’t let your vanity run wild. It’s laughable to pretend you know something when you don’t.”
