Chapter 205
Olivia didn’t ride a horse at night, but she liked to take the horse for a walk.
This black pony with snow–white hooves was Olivia’s favorite. She had to ride it a few laps every day, take it for a walk at night, and occasionally brush its fur.
After walking, she realized that Mia was sitting on the sofa in the living room. It seemed like Mia was waiting for her.
Olivia came in, took off her hat and gloves, and handed them to the maid beside her.
It was as if she was at her home.
However, in Mia’s eyes, it was exceptionally annoying.
In the beginning, Mia wanted to make trouble for Olivia. She specially arranged for a clumsy maid who always did something wrong and broke things to serve Olivia.
However, for some reason, in just half a day, the maid changed herself and was very different. She became smart and quick–witted.
She memorized Olivia’s daily life and took good care of Olivia. It was as if the maid had become a different person.
And as for the butler, recently, he liked to follow Olivia around and curry favor with her.
There seemed to be a special aura about Olivia. She looked amiable, but her words and actions were just right, making people subconsciously listen to her.
Olivia took the coffee from the butler and took a sip before looking up at Mia. “What’s the matter?” she asked.
Looking at the obedient butler beside Olivia, Mia felt a little unhappy.
However, she suppressed the discomfort in her heart and looked at Olivia with a smile, her eyes filled with uncontrollable excitement.
Mia thought, “I’ll let you be smug for another day. You will cry tomorrow morning!”
“Olivia.” Mia said arrogantly, “You’ve been playing by yourself for the past few days and didn’t care about Daniel’s whereabouts at all. Aren’t you
afraid that he will have an ulterior motive and love another woman?”
Olivia leaned against the sofa with her legs crossed. She looked lazy and didn’t care about Mia’s words at all.
She glanced at Mia indifferently and suddenly said, “I don’t know if Daniel has an ulterior motive, but I know very well if you have an ulterior motive.”
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Mia’s eyes suddenly turned cold, as if her thoughts had been exposed. Her entire body was filled with guilt.
Olivia held the cup and rubbed the rim of the cup with her fingertips. After a while, she looked up and said seriously, “You have a deep relationship with Daniel. He values you as his own sister and I respect you very much. I hope you won’t disappoint us.”
“What?” Mia sneered. Her voice suddenly became sharp, and for the first time, she revealed a mean and unkind appearance. “You haven’t even married into the Sullivan family, and you’re already
impatient to say this. You’re quite ambitious. Unfortunately, you’re destined to not be able to marry Daniel.”
At this point, Mia’s eyes suddenly flashed a coldness. She stood up and walked to Olivia’s side. She lowered her voice and said, “I have prepared a big gift for you. Just wait for it. You will receive it tomorrow.”
“Gift?” Olivia’s expression did not change. She asked calmly, “You found a woman for Daniel?”
“You…” Mia’s pupils constricted, and her eyes were filled with shock.
Mia was not surprised that Olivia could guess it but was shocked by her calmness.
Olivia did not panic at all. There was no worry in her eyes as she spoke calmly. It was as if she was saying something very ordinary.
Mia’s heart skipped a beat. She found it unbelievable. “Aren’t you worried?”
Mia thought, “Any normal woman would be nervous. Why doesn’t Olivia care at all? How could she be so calm?”
“Worried about what?” Olivia looked up.
She was a little sleepy. When she spoke, her voice unconsciously slowed down, and she said very slowly, giving off the illusion of gentleness.
Mia was stunned. “Aren’t you worried that Daniel likes other women?”
“I’m worried.” Olivia nodded slowly.
“Then why are you so calm?”
Olivia’s expression was lazy. She gently raised her eyes and said calmly, “Because I trust him, and I trust myself more.”
Mia was stunned.
She did not know when she had returned to her room, nor did she know what she should do.
She wanted to call Jack, but she was afraid.
Mia did not know what she was afraid of, but she did not dare to call Jack.
She sat at the head of the bed, quietly waiting for the results.
Tomorrow, she would know the results tomorrow morning.
Mia did not wait until the next morning. Half an hour later, she knew the result.
She was downstairs in the living room, listening to Ellis’s narration.
Ellis and Rowanna worked together and even played roles. One played Daniel and the other played Betty.
Rowanna, who was acting as Betty, rushed over and wanted to bump into Ellis, who was acting as Daniel.
Before Rowanna bumped, Ellis shouted, “Stop!”
Then, Ellis spun and kicked out.
Before Ellis could kick her, Rowanna flew out and lay on the sofa.
Ellis was speechless. “Do you think that Betty is stupid? Is she stupid? She rushed to Mr. Sullivan’s room just like that. In other words, Mr. Sullivan is soft–hearted. Seeing that she was an ordinary woman, he didn’t use his full strength. Otherwise, she would die when Mr. Sullivan kicked her.”
Rowanna sighed. “Romance novels really hurt people. In the past, I thought that the female was drugged and ran to the wrong room. It was a beautiful thing to meet the male lead. Today, when I really met it, I realized that it was not trustworthy.
“Who knows if a strange woman is good or bad? Is she here to assassinate him? How stupid is the domineering president? He doesn’t care about anything and just pounces on her to be intimate with her. Isn’t he afraid of getting sick?”
“Is Betty alright?” Mia forced herself to calm down.
Ellis shook his head. “I don’t know. She’s already been sent to the hospital. There’s a pool below, so her life shouldn’t be in danger. She’s being resuscitated in the hospital now. The police are still waiting to interrogate her.”
Mia pretended not to know. “Why did she enter Daniel’s room?” As she spoke, she smiled slightly and glanced at Olivia. “Is she an admirer of Daniel?”
“No,” Ellis explained. “Her stepmother, step–sister, and Bob have already confessed. Betty was originally framed by her stepmother and given to Bob. Halfway through, Betty woke up and ran over the balcony to Mr. Sullivan’s room.”
Ellis suddenly looked at Mia and said softly, “The hotel is closed because the balcony is too close. Also, we found surveillance equipment in Betty’s previous room.”
Mia clenched her fists tightly under her skirt, but her face was still calm and curious. “Did someone intentionally design it? Have you checked the mastermind behind it?”
“It’s not a design. It’s a coincidence,” Ellis said. “We have already checked. It’s just a coincidence. It wasn’t designed by anyone, but…”
“But what?” Mia asked nervously.
Ellis said, “Mr. Sullivan said that the more coincidental it seems, the more suspicious it is.”NôvelDrama.Org content.
