Chapter 10
“Are you going to leave me behind?” Andrew immediately reacted and turned his head to glare at Daniel in anger.
Daniel didn’t have time to pay attention to his son and directly told the driver, “Take care of Andrew.” Then, he raised his hand to push the door open and get out of the car.
The driver was nervous. “Mr. Sullivan, where are you going? What about Mr. Andrew? Do you want me to send him back to the old mansion?” Daniel’s gaze returned to Andrew and met his son’s round and angry eyes. He instantly swallowed his words about sending Andrew back to the old mansion and said, “Send him to the Taylor family for the dinner party.” C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
The driver thought, “Is Mr. Sullivan letting Mr. Andrew go to a dinner party on his own? He’s only four years old!” He was stunned.
By this time, Daniel had gotten out of the car. He raised his hand to touch the little boy’s fluffy head and said in a cold voice, “Aren’t you going to pick out a wife for me? Go ahead and pick one!”
When Daniel got out of the car, Olivia had already gotten off the subway elevator.
Looking at the elevator that was already going down, Daniel didn’t hesitate and ran directly toward the escalator.
On the other side, after Olivia left, Abigail instantly relaxed and leaned over the steering wheel to catch her breath.
Thinking about Olivia’s tone of voice when she left, Abigail felt both fear and guilt in her heart.
She wasn’t a good assistant. She went against the ethics of her profession.
After breathing heavily while leaning on the steering wheel several times, she calmed down and returned to her senses. She took out her cell phone and dialed the number. “Hello…”
But before she could say more, a woman’s excited voice came from the other side of the phone. “Abigail, did you make it?”
Abigail sounded tired. “Yeah. She’s already gone to the subway.”
“Great!” Grace jumped up happily. “I’ve got it all set up over at the subway. There are reporters and a couple of men hired. They will follow Olivia when they see her, and when she gets on the subway, those men will follow her and surround her, crumpling her clothes. Then, the reporters will take photos of her. As long as those photos are shared online, her reputation will be ruined!”
“Hahaha!” Grace was overjoyed and kept imagining. “Is it mean or poor for a rich young lady to wear a gown and push her way through the subway? A wealthy young lady squeezing through her way with many men on the subway. Is the subway too crowded, or does the young lady have a special fetish?”
She thought of several topics in a row, each more nasty and vicious than the other.
Abigail’s brows furrowed as she listened. “Will it be too excessive?”
“Too excessive?” Grace sneered. “In terms of excessive, who can compare to her? Abigail, you don’t know many things. Olivia is always arrogant. Given that she is the Taylor family’s biological daughter, she has been making things difficult for Emma. Emma is so kind and will hold her grievances in her heart and endure them silently. She even refused to say a bad word about Olivia, so how could she retaliate back?”
Grace was exasperated. “You don’t know how far Olivia has gone. We’re just teaching her a lesson and giving her a warning. It’s just to make her look bad, and we’re not doing anything too much.”
“But…” Abigail was still worried.
“Don’t worry!” Grace interrupted her. “What is there to worry about? It’s not like we’re taking indecent photos. It’s just a few photos of her wearing a gown and pushing through her way on the subway. Moreover, Emma is so nice to you. Don’t you want to repay Emma?”
Abigail fell into silence when talking about Emma.
It was Emma who recommended her to be Amelia’s assistant.
She should repay Emma for her kindness in recognizing her worth. Moreover, over the years, Emma gave her a lot of help both in her work and life.
“Let’s take this time as a return to her!” thought Abigail.
When the elevator to the subway arrived and the doors opened, Olivia held her phone and looked outside. She didn’t step out.
Even after everyone else in the elevator walked out, Olivia remained motionless.
A brief moment later, she raised her hand, pressed the button for the ground floor abruptly, and closed the elevator doors.
Several people were in the elevator car when she came down. Everyone else looked at her curiously, wondering why she was taking the subway when she was dressed so grandly.
When she went up, Olivia was alone in the elevator.
Olivia was not a person who liked to compete and win. Often, it was not that she competed with her rivals but that they were too weak and naturally let her win.
Regarding the Taylor family, Olivia valued kinship, and as for property and status, she didn’t care.
However, this did not mean that others did not care.
The other party had made repeated moves to try and stomp her into the mud.
Olivia did not want to compete, but more than that, she did not want to be stepped in the mud.
What had happened at the Taylor family the last couple of times had touched her bottom.
Olivia hated that people set her up!
Abigail’s tactics were too rough. Although Olivia didn’t know her purpose, it could only be two things. One was to make her late for the dinner party, and the other was to get people to block her in the subway to take her ugly photos.
“How dare she use such an idiot tactic against me?” cursed Olivia inwardly.
Getting out of the elevator, Olivia took out her cell phone and dialed a number.
In a short while, an RV drove up to her, and her assistant came down to open the door for her. “Ms. Taylor, the makeup artist and stylist have all arrived.”
Olivia nodded and got into the RV.
Inside was a full of all sorts of supplies. In addition to cosmetics and styling supplies, there were also two spare gowns, all of which were brands under the Olle Group.
Olivia was an important shareholder of Charm, one of the brands under
Olle Group, and was even the backbone of research and development, so she enjoyed a great deal of privilege.
Sitting on the seat, Olivia closed her eyes. “Let’s go. To the Taylor family’s place.”
The RV started smoothly, and the makeup artist and stylist immediately came forward to Olivia.
The assistant sat in the passenger seat and turned to ask, “Ms. Taylor, do you want me to arrange a life assistant for you?”
In the past, Olivia was tied up in the lab 24 hours a day, and at most, she would go home and sleep. Her contact with people was limited, so she didn’t need a life assistant. But now that she had returned to the Taylor family, there were a lot of rules and trivia, so she would need to have one. “You arrange it.” Olivia’s tone was careless.
She didn’t care about the matter of having a life assistant. She returned to the Taylor family for the sake of her grandfather, but she wouldn’t stay with the Taylor family all the time.
In the future, anything like this had nothing to do with her, and it wouldn’t come up again.
On Olivia’s way back, Grace called Abigail in a hurry. “Did Olivia really go to the subway?”
Abigail was dealing with the insurance company’s people. Hearing Grace’s words, she froze for a moment before she reacted and
subconsciously said, “Yeah. I watched her get off the elevator. What’s the matter? Is something wrong?”
After asking, Abigail suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
“She’s gone. Those people I arranged have been guarding the elevator entrance, but they didn’t see anyone come down.” Grace was so anxious that her throat was a little hoarse.
Abigail’s heart tightened, and her tone became anxious. “Could it be that she was wearing something else and you guys didn’t recognize her? Or was she shielded from view by someone else?”
“No way!” Grace’s tone was agitated. “A total of three people came out of the elevator. How could they block her? And just to be on the safe side, I purposely gave those people I arranged a photo of Olivia, and they should all know her.”
“She didn’t take the subway!” Grace was now anxious and confused.
She did set Olivia up to make a fool out of her, but she didn’t want anything to happen to Olivia. If Olivia embarrassed herself, everyone’s attention would be focused on the fact that she made a fool of herself, and no one would care why that would happen.
But if something really happened to her, like if she disappeared or got hurt, they’d be in big trouble.
The Taylor family was not easy to fool. At that time, they would definitely send someone to investigate the matter, and no matter how perfect their preparations were, they would still be found out.
It didn’t matter if she was found out, but she was afraid of involving Emma.
After all, she was Emma’s assistant.
No one would think that it was a mere assistant’s self–decision, and everyone would assume that it was Emma who had set Olivia up.
