Chapter 566

There were many reporters watching at the hospital entrance. They saw Bella Thompson and Matthew Marshall arriving. Fearing that this vile woman would use the media to cause a scene, Adam Howard didn’t stop them. He just sent a message to Daniel.

Daniel had predicted Bella would seize this golden opportunity to return to Serene City. He didn’t expect her to come even sooner than he’d anticipated.

Unpredictable emotions flickered in Daniel’s enticing eyes.

Gazing at Daniel with soft eyes, Olivia Jenkins coaxed, “Let a woman handle a woman’s affairs. It’s easier for us to communicate.”

Suddenly, a fiery light blazed in Daniel’s eyes as he looked at Olivia.

A smile unconsciously lifted Daniel’s charming lips. “Thanks, my wife. I feel so warm inside. I’m so happy!”

“I am also a part of this family; it’s what I should do. As husband and wife, we should share burdens together.”

Olivia gave Daniel a hug, and then she left the room.

Unsure of Olivia’s intentions, Michael Marshall fixated his gaze on her as she left the suite.

In an instant, Michael Marshall was fully alert.

Just as Olivia stepped out into the hallway, she saw Bella Thompson and Matthew Marshall coming towards her.

Olivia stood right in the middle of the corridor, cleverly asserting her dominance.

If Olivia didn’t move aside, Matthew’s wheelchair couldn’t pass. Bella Thompson had no choice but to stop in front of Olivia.

This slut dares to stop her?

She really wanted to kill that slut!

Regardless of the tumult brewing in Bella Thompson’s mind, she pretended to be weak and pitiful, obedient and sad, with reddened eyes filled with tears.

In Olivia’s eyes, Bella’s act was nothing but a cat crying crocodile tears. Olivia looked at Bella Thompson with a satirical smile.

Knowing that a head-on confrontation wouldn’t work, Bella Thompson could only continue acting weak, hoping to gain Michael Marshall’s sympathy.

In an instant, Bella Thompson whispered, “We saw the news. Knowing Dad was injured, we were so worried that we rushed here overnight to see him. Olivia, please, let us see our grandfather.”

Olivia eyed Bella Thompson sharply. “Miss Bella Thompson, you’re a bit too much. No one is stopping you from seeing your grandfather. Your plea might let others think that I’m making things difficult for you. This can lead to misunderstandings, and you might even falsely accuse me.”

“But you’re standing in the middle…”

Olivia chuckled with an air of mockery, “Oh, so I’m in your way! I had no ulterior motives. Seeing you here without grandfather’s approval, I was just surprised and shocked. You came from the countryside to Serene City so quickly. You really couldn’t wait!”

Despite the simmering rage inside her, Bella Thompson continued to keep her composure, “That’s not what I meant.”

If it came to acting, Olivia was no less skillful. Immediately, she put on an innocent face and pitifully said, “You really scared me, I thought you felt I was doing something wrong. It seemed like you were blaming me.”

This bitch changed so quickly that Bella Thompson was stunned.

Before Bella Thompson could respond, Olivia had already moved to the side of the corridor. She said pitifully, “No one is stopping you from seeing grandfather, I was just coming out to get some air.”

At that moment, Michael Marshall came out of the room. His deep gaze darted between Bella Thompson and Olivia.

Since there was no conflict, and noting had happened, Michael Marshall didn’t know what to say.

After glancing at Olivia, Bella Thompson turned back to Michael Marshall with tearful eyes.
