Because of such an unhappy incident, Ellis felt that he needed to arrange a barbecue party to get rid of the bad luck.
The location was by the lake on the west side of the manor.
There were not many people invited to the barbecue party. It was just these people in the manor and some executives in charge of the branch company.
After the problem with the branch company was resolved, Daniel took the opportunity to let everyone have a good rest.
As the CEO, Daniel had to be serious and approachable.
The barbecue was self–service and was great. Although there was the help of a chef, some executives liked to do it themselves.
Many people were curious and personally roasted them.
No matter how it was roasted, it still tasted quite delicious.
Olivia also contributed her secret barbecue condiment.
Rowanna exclaimed, “Wow, Olivia. You even know how to make barbecue condiments. Is there anything in this world that you don’t
know? Give us ordinary people a way out.”
These days, Rowanna often followed Olivia and had completely become Olivia’s fan.
When she first came over, she only treated Olivia as Daniel’s future wife. It was a work attitude, and she spoke and did things respectfully.
However, as time passed, Rowanna’s mentality changed.
What kind of girl was this? No, what kind of good girl was this?
Olivia was too capable.
Olivia was so capable that Rowanna wanted to leave Daniel and run to become Olivia’s secretary.
It was a pity that she was a management student before and knew nothing about biology. Otherwise, she would definitely leave Daniel. Rowanna actively roasted the meat with Olivia’s barbecue condiment. As soon as she finished roasting a piece, she stuffed it into her mouth impatiently. It was so hot that she gritted her teeth, but she could not bear to spit it out. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Tears streamed down her face as she ate. “Wow, it’s so delicious.”
“Burn you to death! Are you really hungry?” Ellis was furious. He quickly got a piece of ice for Rowanna to hold in her mouth.
The others also tasted Olivia’s barbecue condiment.
Then, they all gave her a thumbs up. “Delicious, delicious, too delicious.”
“This barbecue condiment can even be used to open a shop. It will definitely be popular.”
Mia also tasted it, and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.
She did not expect this meat to be so delicious. It was not inferior to famous chefs.
Then, she smiled slightly as she looked at-Olivia.
Mia thought, “When you were making food at home previously, you were very noble and confident. In the end, you still gave in and secretly learned how to cook.
“On the surface, you look very arrogant and confident. You pretend that Daniel loves you very much, but in the end, you work hard behind his back and try to please Daniel. What a hypocrite!”
Mia wiped her mouth with a tissue and suddenly felt better. She said meaningfully, “Olivia must have spent a lot of effort on this barbecue condiment.”
Olivia was eating a roasted potato. Before she could reply, Ellis said firstly, “Of course. Miss Olivia must have spent a lot of effort on such delicious barbecue condiment.”
A senior executive beside him looked over and said, “I think it’s more than that. This barbecue condiment is especially well mixed. There should be some secret recipe.”
As he spoke, he looked at Olivia. “Miss Olivia, where did you get the secret recipe? This is too delicious. Can you give me the secret recipe? I’m willing to pay.”
The executive was a little embarrassed. “I really love it, but there is filled with roast beef in Launu. It’s different from this barbecue.”
Hearing his words, Mia nodded and felt that it made sense.
She thought, “How could such a delicious barbecue condiment be made by Olivia? She must have found a secret recipe when she finds out that they are going to make a barbecue today. Olivia is very scheming and

knows how to please men.”
“Sure.” Olivia nodded and wiped her hands with a tissue before looking at the maid behind her.
The maid reacted quickly and immediately took out a piece of paper. Olivia raised her chin, and the maid handed the paper to the executive.
The executive looked down and realized that not only was the recipe for the barbecue condiment written on it but there were also some sauce recipes.
This is?” The executive looked up and asked.
Olivia said, “I prepared a few sauces. I couldn’t buy all the ingredients in Launu, so I didn’t make them.”
She spoke casually as if this was a trivial matter that was not worth mentioning.
However, the others present were stunned.
The executive was shocked. “Miss Olivia, did you blend it yourself?”
Olivia nodded casually.
How impressive!
Everyone was shocked.
Only Mia did not think much of it. She thought to herself, “What a pretentious woman.”
Olivia went for a walk by the lake. Mia chased after her and said, “You really know how to pretend. You clearly got the secret recipe from another place, but you said that you made it yourself. You even pretended to be calm. What a joke!”
Olivia did not say anything. She only raised her eyes slightly and sized Mia up.
Mia felt inexplicably uncomfortable. She hugged her shoulders and asked, “Why are you looking at me?”
Olivia tilted her head and smiled slightly. “You’re really interesting.”
This did not sound like a good talk. Mia frowned and asked, “What do you mean?”
Olivia adjusted her coat and said calmly, “Why did you say that I didn’t blend the barbecue condiment by myself?”
“Of course, you can’t do it on your own.” Mia pursed her lips. “Such
Ribonaur’s Messing Darling
delicious barbecue condiment must have gone through thousands of adjustments to achieve such excellent taste today. It must be very difficult to blend it. You said that you blended it yourself to show that you’re different and to show off.”
“Really?” Olivia rolled her eyes and said casually, “But I think it’s very easy. It’s not difficult at all.”
Then, she looked at Mia seriously. “Why do you think it’s difficult? It is easy for me to blend this barbecue condiment. How can you think that I am showing off?”
Mia was speechless.
How infuriating!
After taking a few deep breaths, Mia finally calmed down.
She turned her gaze to the lake and suddenly said, “Let’s make a bet. Let’s see who’s more important in Daniel’s heart.”
“Alright. You’re important.” Olivia replied very quickly, but very carelessly.
Mia was completely infuriated by Olivia’s casual attitude.
She was like an angry frog, fuming!
Mia’s attitude was firm. She had to make a bet. She raised her finger and pointed at the lake beside her. “The two of us will jump in and see who Daniel saves first. You know that when people are nervous, their instinctive reaction is the best way to show their sincerity. If he really cares about you, he will definitely save you immediately! On the other hand, if he doesn’t save you, it means…”

A nasty smile flashed across Mia’s eyes. “I don’t need to say it clearly. I believe you can understand.”
“Come on.” Mia stretched out her hands and pushed Olivia hard. Then, she leaned forward and wanted to fall into the water with Olivia.
Olivia calmly took a step to the side and dodged.
Mia was speechless. “Fuck!”
