Suddenly, Seraphina’s crying ceased, and her whole body slumped to the ground.
No matter which choice she made, both meant total extermination.
She found herself without the strength to struggle anymore. The woman standing before her was relentlessly pushing her towards her end. Daniel was now siding with the woman, leaving Seraphina completely defeated, with no chance at a comeback.
Having raised a useless son who only brought her trouble seemed like retribution in itself.
Seraphina didn’t immediately respond. Olivia Jenkins ordered Simon Howard to drag George Jenkins away and instructed him to look after George and
Elizabeth Richardson.
Suddenly, Seraphina panicked.
In her desperation, Seraphina cried out in pain: “Olivia, I will return all the money that I had transferred to overseas accounts back to you, and pinpoint Henry Charles. You tell me what to do and I will do it. I completely acquiesce to you.”
Olivias’ expression was hard, without a hint of emotional fluctuation. She coldly ordered, “Take good care of George and Elizabeth. For each day I don’t see the money, you guys will continue to wine and dine them.”
Simon Howard nodded his head, “Understood!”
Seraphina didn’t have the strength to fight any longer, she hid her hatred, glaring at Olivia.
She would pull herself together and personally witness this woman’s downfall.
Seraphina was also led away, and the house suddenly became peaceful.
Olivia thanked them and went to pack her things, leaving Daniel aside.
Watching this, Simon was agitated but couldn’t voice out his dissatisfaction, holding his anger back due to the boss’s presence.
Daniel sat on the sofa in silence, his soft eyes quietly watching Olivia.
Olivia packed the things she was taking away into a box. The unnecessary things were all thrown away. She sincerely wanted to sell this apartment.
After changing the locks of the home, Olivia arranged for her boxes to be sent to the Pearl Lake.
Finally, she looked at Daniel properly, “I invite you to dinner! I was obstinate and too proud before, I apologize to you.”
Understanding the importance of being sensitive to timing, Olivia really understood it today.
No matter how hard she tried, it could never be as effective as a single sentence from Daniel. His power could easily intimidate everyone. Even if she despised such power, she couldn’t help but submit to the reality.
Daniel squinted his eyes looking at Olivia, he noticed that this woman had changed, and had become more meek.
She has put on her armor once again!
Daniel’s eyebrows furrowed, the emotions in his eyes were complex.
Let’s give her more time, he would eventually peel off her prickly armor.
After dinner, Daniel suggested watching a movie, Olivia did not reject his proposition.
She could deal with playing the role of Mrs. Olivia Marshall.
Daniel held Olivia’s hand, she didn’t resist or shake it off.
It felt like he was holding a body without a soul, a storm of rage welled up in the depth of Daniel’s eyes.
No doubt, he disliked Olivia’s submissive appearance, but there was nothing he could do. His lady’s stubbornness was real, as was her myriad of misunderstandings about him. It was all too complex to explain at once.
When they returned to the villa by Pearl Lake, Daniel and Olivia went to their respective rooms.
Auntie Jane felt something was off, but couldn’t pinpoint what.
Had the couple reconciled?
On the surface, they seemed to have, but Auntie Jane had an indescribable feeling.
Perhaps they were still hiding some problems!
After taking a shower and dressing in a sexy nightgown, Olivia even applied perfume and went voluntarily to Daniel’s master bedroom.
Leaning against the door frame, Olivia played with her hair and struck a flirtatious pose.. Her seductive gaze was directed at Daniel, “Husband, may I come in?”
