Chapter 3
Olivia racked her brain but seeing that there was no good idea that popped into her mind, she left her bedroom in frustration.As she walked around the house, her eyes caught the servant cleaning by and they lit up.Ah, why did she not think about it earlier? These servants should know Ethan better because they have been staying with him.Olivia devised a plan in her mind. She was just going to pretend that she was concerned about their master and wanted to know more about him, thus learning a few things that he disliked or liked.“Yo, are you busy?’ Olivia asked the servant in a good-natured voice.“You have eyes but you cannot even see?” The servant mocked. She did not like this woman that had popped out of nowhere and entered her master’s life.Although they were told to show total respect, she could not help but disdain her.Seeing that the servant’s attitude was not so welcoming, Olivia did not care. She was just there to know a few things about that damned man.She would make sure that she infuriates him until he throws her out of her house.“I can see that you are cleaning, but you are almost done. I am just here to ask a few things about your master.” Olivia said.She wrung her hand nervously as if she was afraid the servant would reject her.The servant looked at her and scoffed. Heh, she had only been here for a day but she was already asking about their master? Has she already fallen in love?“What do you want to know?” the servant asked. She vowed that she was going to teach this bitch that had tainted their master a lesson.Ethan was like a god in their hearts. Although he was handsome, he was not someone who liked to play outside. They were actually shocked when Olivia was brought here. Maybe she was the one who seduced their master.“Uhm, just simple things like what the master likes and what he dislikes. You know, I am new here and I don’t want to do anything that will anger him.” Olivia said.Her face was so innocent that no one could tell that a lot of evil plots were now playing out in her mind.“Our master is always composed. He never shows his emotions in front of anyone.” the servant said.Olivia immediately revealed a disappointed expression. If even the servants did not know their master, who was she supposed to ask?Seeing her disappointed look, the servant felt disdain in her heart. She was right, this woman had fallen in love with their master.“But…”“Is there anything?” Olivia’s face lit up with delight.“There are some things that our master hates, one, he hates anything cooked with carrots, and two, he hates when people get physical with him. He especially hates those women who try to throw themselves at him and seduce him.” the servant said.Olivia’s eyes lit up. Ha ha, she was glad that she asked.“Thank you, so much for the information,” Olivia said and quickly left. She had to devise her plan and make sure that by the time Ethan got home from work, everything would be perfectly done.Even if she has never seduced a man before, she would learn, just to make sure that the man was infuriated.When evening came, Olivia rushed to the kitchen. Seeing that the servants were busy preparing dinner, she offered to do it herself.“Y’all can leave. I will be cooking for your master today,” she commanded.“Ma’am…” the servants were hesitant.“Olivia, what are you doing?” Alice came over and asked.“I offered to cook dinner for the master tonight but the servants are not allowing me to. I just want to show my sincerity.” Olivia said in a pitiful voice.Alice looked at the chefs and told them to leave the kitchen and let Olivia do her things.She did not know how deep her relationship with her master would run, but for now, they had to be polite to her.After the chefs left, Olivia excitedly entered the kitchen. Seeing that all the ingredients were prepared and the only thing lacking were carrots, Olivia ordered a few servants to bring her carrots from the garden.Haha, since she was about to make a feast, she had to do it perfectly.When Ethan came back from work, he was surprised to see Olivia donning a pink apron and arranging the table. The dining table was filled with lots of dishes and he wondered if she was the one who had made them.When Olivia realized that Ethan was back, she flashed him a smile as she ushered him to the dining table.“Perfect time. Just in time when I am done making dinner.” Olivia said. She especially emphasized the last part.She wanted to make sure that Ethan heard it.Ethan was momentarily stunned when he heard Olivia. It was only for a split second before he sat down at the dining table. Olivia passed him a warm towel to wipe his hands before she opened the lids covering the food. When the smell of carrots wafted in Ethan’s nostrils, his brows furrowed ever so slightly. Olivia, who had been looking at him, was slightly excited.Heh, she was just waiting for the man to flare up and chase her out of the house. But to her dismay, not only did Ethan not scold her, he immediately took a plate and started eating his dinner. He seemed to be enjoying his meal as he did not even lift his head.Halfway through, the man lifted his head and looked at Olivia. Olivia’s heart skipped a bit but she became excited. She thought Ethan could no longer endure the taste of carrots in the food and was about to scold her.“Don’t do this for me again next time.” the man said in a monotonous voice. Seeing that she might have touched the man’s nerve, Olivia decided to up her game.Hah, let us see how long you will continue to pretend to like the food when in reality you can't wait to throw up.After hearing his words, Olivia nodded obediently. When she saw that Ethan had gone back to eating his meal, she moved to his side in an attempt to pour him a glass of water. But whether she was doing it deliberately or not, the glass of water landed perfectly on Etha’s chest when she tried handing it to him, wetting his shirt.“Oh, I am so sorry. I am always so clumsy. Look at how I have messed up your clothes. I will help you wipe them.” Olivia said.She took a dry towel from the table and started to wipe Ethan’s body. Her hands were all over his body as she helped him to dry his head. Ethan’s body turned stiff the moment he smelt the woman’s clean scent.He had planned to scold her but the words reached the tip of his tongue before rolling back. Her warm breath was all over his body and he felt as if he was being caressed by a light feather.Seeing that the woman was not stopping, and her chest was almost in his face, his expression tensed and he put the spoon in his hand on the table, he abruptly stood up, startling Olivia who almost had her entire body in his arms.Thinking that her plan had been perfect and the man could no longer tolerate him, Olivia looked up at the man with an excited expression.Ethan did not say anything as he immediately scooped the woman in his arms. Olivia was stunned for a moment but soon a subtle smile appeared on her lips.Well, he was going to personally throw her out of his house and she could not ask for more.But to her horror, the man did not head towards the door. He headed towards the stairs while carrying her easily in his arms. Olivia revealed a confused expression. She saw the servant who had given her suggestions standing at the kitchen door with horror written all over her face, not knowing how to react.Before she could react to anything, a deep, sexy voice sounded in her ear, “You are such a slutty, sexy bitch. Since you started the fire, then you will have to extinguish it!”Chapter 80 On the day of the trial, Olivia, Ethan, Tom, and other important board members gathered in the court. They had already recovered the funds so; it was time for Nathan and his minions to face judgment for their actions. Almost a month had passed. Zari appeared haggard and older than her age. Her eyes were puffed and she seemed as if she had been crying a good one in jail. Luke appeared as thin as a stick and he could be easily carried away by the wind. But no one was feeling mercy for them. They were just paying for their actions. Yusuf had his head lowered. He did not dare look at Tom or Olivia. No one knew what was going on in his mind. He had requested to see Tom and Olivia a few times over the past month, but they had refused his request. Especially Tom. He was still recovering from the fact that someone he saw as a son had actually betrayed him, and almost caused him to lose his only granddaughter. The only person who appeared at ease was probably Nathan. He was no
Chapter 79 Although Olivia had been kidnapped and Nathan had said all kinds of confusing words to her, Olivia was not afraid. She was confident that Ethan will be finding her as soon as possible. Her earring had a GPS tracker but only Ethan, her grandfather, and herself knew about it. Also, Ethan taught her to always carry something that she can use to protect herself, after the snake accident. She has always carried a Swiss knife in her clothes, and not even her security knew about it. After knowing that the man would not come back any time soon, Olivia used all her wits and finally managed to get the Swiss knife in her hands. Her grandfather had given it to her. He said that it was made of special material and it could cut through anything. And true to his words, the ropes that were used to tie her up were now in pieces as Olivia looked at them with cold eyes. Olivia’s eyes had already adjusted to the darkness and after freeing herself, she looked around, trying to find a way o
Chapter 78 “Nathan!” Olivia slowly called out the man’s name. “Huh, you still remember me?” Nathan asked as he chuckled devilishly. The scars on his face cracked when he laughed, leaving him with a scary look. Olivia looked at the man she had almost forgotten that he existed and her heart sank. Was he back to exert revenge on what happened back then? Why now? Where had he been all these years? “What happened to you?” Olivia asked as she looked at the man’s face which was full of scars. “Ha ha, what happened to me? Don’t you know what happened to me when you abandoned me and left with my brother? I thought that you were a damsel in distress and I was willing to cross my brother, just so that I could help you. Who would have thought that you will be such an unappreciative bitch?” “I also never knew that you had such a strong background. If I had known, I would not have let you go back then.” “What do you want from me? Money, sure, I can give it to you no matter how much you want
Chapter 77 Tom looked at Yusuf and furrowed his eyebrows. He did not like the sound of that. “What is it?” “Take a look at this,” Yusuf said as he tossed a pile of documents on top of Tom’s desk. The killing intent in his eyes had not dwindled, and he looked like he could not wait to shoot someone. Tom looked through the documents. After he finished, he slammed it on the desk and looked at Yusuf. Anger was spitting through his eyes, and he almost reached for his gun. “What is the meaning of this?” he angrily questioned. “Master, I have never believed for once that Olivia would do this to you. After we caught Luke, he said a bunch of crap, and just to be sure, I went ahead and raided his house, and these are everything I found. I rushed here immediately because I did not want you to be deceived anymore.” “See, there are DNA reports, stating clearly that Olivia is not your granddaughter. If you look at the dates, it is before you found her and even performed the DNA test. But the
Chapter 76 When Olivia left the office, all the workers were waiting outside the door, looking at her with fear in their eyes. “Boss, is it true that the company accounts have been emptied and we are about to be sent packing?” Olivia frowned when she heard that. “What nonsense are you talking about?” “The accounts manager has already resigned and she told us that there is nothing that can be done about it. Someone stole the company’s money and there is no way of getting it back.” “Oh my God, what am I going to do about my mom’s hospital bill? They just called yesterday and told me that the bill is overdue.” “My son was sent home yesterday because of school fees, and I told him that he will report to school the day after tomorrow. What am I going to do if we are not paid?” “My bills…” “My rent…” “The Shylock will definitely cut my head off.” The workers started to protest that Olivia felt her head almost bursting. Everyone was shouting and they had sandwiched her in the midd
Chapter 75 At Palmer’s Mansion, inside Tom’s study room. There was a stifling feeling in the air as Tom listened to Olivia recount what had happened. When she finished, he flung his fist on the table, making the wooden table almost snap into two. His nose flared up and he was trembling from anger. “Insolent! How dare he steal from me, Thomas Palmer? Who gave him the courage?” “Grandfather, calm down, please. We still don’t know the concrete situation of what really transpired. What we need right now is to find that man as soon as possible.” Olivia went to her grandfather and held him. He had a heart condition and having his emotions worked up was not good for him. He needed to calm done, only then will he think. “I have already ordered the bank to freeze his accounts. The moment he tries to do any transaction, we will know where he is.” Ethan said from the side, as he looked at the old man. Tom took out his phone and sent an orange alert, very soon, a lot of top secret agents
