Chapter 105
The car arrived at the house. Upon hearing the sound of the vehicle in the courtyard, everyone in the Sullivan household rushed out. They assumed the renowned doctor’s granddaughter had arrived. Only Yvonne remained seated.
Isaac glanced at Yvonne. “Aren’t you going?”
Yvonne was confused. Why should she go? She didn’t even know his granddaughter. But then she quickly thought that Isaac must want her to get along well with his granddaughter.
With this in mind, Yvonne smiled and cheerfully responded, “Then, I’ll go and welcome her.”
The Sullivan family members came out one after another. Only Daniel, Isabella, and Isaac remained seated on the couch.
Being young and curious, Harper was at the forefront. She took the lead and was the first to see the car. At first glance, she instinctively furrowed her brows. Wait, this didn’t seem like Isabella’s car.
Others came out gradually. Harper looked at Grayson uncertainly and asked, “Grayson, isn’t this our cousin’s car? I thought Mrs. Sullivan’s car was sent to pick up the renowned doctor’s granddaughter.”
Grayson also frowned. “It’s Aunt’s car.” NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
The car came to a slow stop, and Henry was the first to step out.
Seeing him, Grayson was even more puzzled. “Why are you back? Weren’t you supposed to drop Olivia off?” As she spoke, her face fell. She turned pale immediately. “Don’t tell me she’s back again.”
Her words had barely escaped when she saw Olivia stepping out from the back of the car.
Grayson’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Her face contorted as she pointed at Olivia and shouted angrily. “Why is she here?”
She was bursting with anger. She questioned Henry furiously. The renowned doctor’s granddaughter was about to arrive to treat her aunt.
Not to mention, Yvonne and Olivia were not on good terms. She was worried that Olivia’s return would trigger a conflict that might disrupt her
aunt’s treatment.
Thinking of this, Grayson wished she could tear Olivia apart and devour
her.
However, she still had some rationality. She knew that she couldn’t make a scene now. Isaac was still in the room. She couldn’t let Yvonne and Isaac see Olivia.
She lowered her voice and pointed at Olivia. “You, leave right away…” She paused and looked at the garage nearby. “Go hide in the garage.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Yvonne came out. She was slightly behind the others, so she came out later.
“Who’s hiding in the garage?” She playfully quipped, moving past the group and stepping forward. However, when she saw Olivia in front of her, the smile vanished from her face.
“Why are you here?” She furrowed her brows, her voice dripping with
anger.
They still got caught. Grayson sighed and hurried forward to comfort Yvonne. “Ms. Yvonne, just ignore her. It’s the driver’s incompetence. He brought her back again. I’ll send her away right now.”
“Send her away?” Yvonne’s eyes turned dark. She glanced at the door and mocked, “Aren’t you afraid Mr. Sullivan will be angry?”
Grayson‘ face turned pale when she thought of Daniel, but she quickly regained her composure. With a conciliatory smile, she said to Yvonne, “She’s just a woman. How can she compare to Mother?”
Upon hearing this, Yvonne finally felt satisfied. She nodded in agreement, her expression ice–cold as she looked at Olivia with eyes like a venomous snake. “Get rid of her. I don’t want to see her.”
Grayson nodded and turned to Olivia. She was about to give Olivia a piece of her mind.
Seeing this, Henry quickly intervened, “No, no!” The situation had developed too rapidly, and he hadn’t had time to react. He was accustomed to staying silent as a driver and wasn’t skilled in verbal disputes. So he couldn’t explain himself.
Grayson frowned at him, thinking he was concerned about Daniel. She rebuked him immediately, “Do you even understand the urgency of the situation? The most important thing right now is Mrs. Sullivan’s health. As for other women, they are utterly insignificant.”
Saying this, she cast a disdainful look at Olivia and continued with an air of arrogance, “Hmph, she’s lucky to have even entered the Sullivan
attention were solely on Olivia now. He completely ignored her.
Yvonne’s expression changed when she didn’t receive any response from Isaac, but she quickly composed herself. She approached Isaac, tugging at his sleeve with a pitiful expression. “Grandpa, you’re finally here. You
have no idea how they bullied me just now.”
Isaac was somewhat stunned. He turned to look at Yvonne and suddenly said faintly, “Who bullied you?”
“It’s her.” Yvonne pointed arrogantly at Olivia, “It’s her, Grandpa. You don’t know this, but she’s the Taylor family’s daughter who went missing for 18 years. She always uses her status as a Taylor family member to bully me.”
Isaac’s gaze fell on Yvonne’s wrist, and he noticed she wasn’t wearing the jade pendant. It took him a moment to realize they were not friends.
He had misunderstood!
Isaac disregarded Yvonne and walked straight toward the courtyard, making his way toward Olivia.
Isabella exclaimed, “Mr. Smith, where are you going?”
Ignoring the shocked and puzzled gazes of everyone around, Isaac walked straight up to Olivia, his seemingly calm eyes holding back an overwhelming torrent of emotions.
His lips moved slightly as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he restrained himself. He raised his hand, wanting to touch Olivia’s soft hair. But he trembled, and his movement paused in mid– air for a while. He couldn’t do it.
Olivia reached up and gently pressed his palm down against her head.
In that moment of contact, Isaac’s eyes unexpectedly grew moist as if unlocking the floodgates of emotions. His lips trembled open. “Olivia, are you still angry with Grandpa?”
This sentence was like a drop of water falling into a boiling pot of oil. Instantly, it caused huge waves that shocked everyone present.
