“I’m gonna kill him!”
Olivia turned around but Nicole grabbed her arm. And Davon began to smile.
“You can’t. He and I both studied under the same master.”
Nicole and Olivia were shocked.
“So you know each other?”
“Yes. He is not an enemy. But he is kind of cynical. We studied different fields under the same masters. He excelled at poison-making so he always wanted to challenge my capability of detoxifying. But this time, it’s more than just a letter of challenge.”
Davon frowned a little.
“What do you mean?”
Nicole was intrigued. She pulled Olivia to sit down with her so they could hear the whole story.
Davon whispered, “Tony is from the Country F. The Thompson family is one of the four officials of the Cabinet. But I heard that the Thompson family is in trouble now, which is probably why he is looking for me. And Olivia might be the referrer. I think Tony did some research on Olivia and might even know about what happened with Jacob before he approached her.
Olivia was a little depressed.
So she had been manipulated?
What the hell?
“So will you meet him?”
“Yep. After all, he’s kind of like a little brother to me. I think he meant well and he might have his people produce the cure for Olivia.
His words comforted Olivia a little bit.
“He’s not too bad.”
“Neither are you.”
Olivia paused as Davon smiled.
“What? I’m not bad at this? If I’m good with relationships, I wouldn’t end up like this.”
“Olivia.”
Nicole wanted to say something to comfort Olivia. But then Davon said, “I shouldn’t comment on your marriage because I’m just an outsider. But since you treat Nicole and I as your family, can I say a few things?”
Olivia and Nicole froze. They didn’t expect him to care about other people’s business.
Nicole was sort of upset, “Davon, Jacob is out of the line. You’re not gonna take his side, are you?”
Davon took a look at Nicole and sighed, “Nicole, you spoke too soon on this matter.”
“I spoke too soon? It was Jacob who did Olivia wrong! If you’re gonna be on his side, then don’t say another word.
Nicole wanted to slam the door and leave but Olivia stopped her.

The book is slow....too many words are wasted to explain...need a better translator.......
God I want to read the book but it's freaking annoying, Samuel Green, Nicole Bush, Lucas Bush, Jacob Brown in every line.....I hope this author grows...the book would have been okay but it's affecting my mood...
Does the author have write the full names of the characters all the time...it's annoying...we are reading the book, we know their surnames already.......
What is it with Chinese authors. The characters are slow, he finally opened his mouth, it took him so long just to say two words...the house keeper would have put the person out before he even spoke....is this really how people are over there..the characters are always lost in thought, they might as well live in their heads.....
