Chapter 345
Billionaire’s Missing Darling
Alexander was in a bad mood. Even after the auction ended, his face was still darkened.
As a result, many people who wanted to compliment him did not dare to step forward. They surrounded him from afar and sized up his expression.
Unfortunately, Alexander did not look happy until he saw the necklace tied with a whistle on Bettanyâs wrist.
âThat necklace!â
Alexanderâs eyes widened. He quickly stepped forward and grabbed Bettanyâs wrist.
Because Alexander was too agitated, his voice was a little hoarse. He stared at Bettany and enunciated each word clearly, âWhere did you get this whistle?â
Bettany was shocked by the anger in Alexanderâs eyes. She did not dare to make a sound and was about to cry.
Just as Bettany was at a loss, Daniel wandered over.
When he saw Alexander grabbing Bettanyâs wrist, he sneered. âMr. Alexander, youâre so Domineering.
What are you doing? Are you trying to rob a girl by force?â
Alexander looked a bit uneasy when he heard the words ârob a girl by forceâ and the probing gazes of the >eople around him. He let go of Bettany, but he kept standing in front of her. His gaze was fixed on her as f he had to get an answer out of her.
Daniel also noticed the whistle. He suddenly realized something. âSo this whistle means a lot to you, Mr. lexander. Were you looking for this whistle? Why didnât you say so earlier?â
anielâs tone was filled with regret.
lexander felt a bit touched. He was a little surprised by Danielâs tone.
ould it be that Daniel knew about this whistle?
e turned to Daniel with anticipation in his eyes.
owever, Daniel continued, âIf you had said so earlier, I would have told Bettany to destroy the whistle so at you would never find it.â
exander was speechless.
was so pissed his face turned livid.
niel ignored Alexander who looked so pissed that he could tear someone apart. He turned to Bettany 1 said, âLetâs go. Olivia is out of the.â
tany had already keenly noticed Olivia and ran to her immediately.
via was a little surprised. She did not understand what was wrong with Bettany. Did someone bully ?
niel grabbed Oliviaâs hand at this moment. He felt that he was in a very good mood today. Not only did offend his love rival, but he also got Oliviaâs care, which she rarely showed.
.
lat a day to celebrate!â
drivers had already driven the cars over. Olivia and Daniel still took the front car, while Bettany got the car behind.
>re getting into the car, she suddenly turned around for some reason.
Alexander was still standing on the spot with a powerful aura. A lot of people surrounded him. They ned to want to approach him, but they didnât dare to.
in Alexander saw Bettany turn around, his eyes lit up, and he subconsciously stepped forward.
ng this, Bettany was startled. She quickly lowered her head and got into the car.â
When she got into the car, her heart was still beating wildly.
Ellis, who was in the front passenger seat, turned around to comfort her. âDonât be afraid. With the Sullivan and Taylor families around, he wonât dare to do anything to you.â
Bettany held the whistle on her wrist and nodded casually, looking distracted.
After a while, she suddenly looked up. âEllis, who is that Mr. Alexander?â
âDo you mean Alexander Grant?â Ellis did not think too much about it and said directly, âYou know that heâs the Mr. Alexander of the Grant family, right? His uncle is the head of the Grant family, the one who often appears on the news.â
âHe has a very high status.â Bettany nodded. Then, she frowned and looked puzzled. âIs there a conflict between him and Mr. Sullivan? I feel that Mr. Sullivan doesnât like him very much.â
Ellis shook his head. âI donât know.â
He didnât dare to make wild guesses about his boss.
Bettany could not ask anything else. She lowered her head and kept thinking about something.
In the car in front, Daniel was lecturing Olivia and explaining to her what it meant to be husband and wife.
âOlivia, you did a good job standing up for me at the auction just now, but your previous performance wasnât satisfactory.â
Olivia looked up and looked at Daniel seriously.
Daniel pointed out Oliviaâs mistakes and even listed them. âOlivia, weâre a team. Weâre on the same side. How could you do nothing when Alexander bullied me? Iâm so sad.â
Daniel looked so sad and aggrieved. He grabbed Oliviaâs hand and placed it on his chest. Aggrieved, he aid, âI need your comfort.â
am, who was driving the car, felt like throwing up.
livia nodded and learned her lesson seriously. She felt very sorry. âIâm sorry that I failed to take elings into consideration enough. I thought you would solve the conflict yourself.â
livia reflected on herself and wondered if she was too aloof and distant.
e found it not okay.
your f course, I could solve it myself. However, you still couldâve helped me.â Daniel gestured. âWe are one, d weâre family. As a family, we should help each other.â
this point, Daniel began to praise Olivia. âLook, you did very well after that. You stood up for me.
âxanderâs face was even twitching from anger. You deserve a rewarded.â
he spoke, he lowered his head and kissed Oliviaâs face.
via pursed her lips, her heart filled with joy.
hooked Danielâs hand and said in a serious tone, âDaniel, you have to tell me if Iâve done anything ng from now on, okay?â
via had no confidence in herself now. She had been treating everyone sincerely since she was young.
ether it was Amelia, Gillian, or Jarron, she had offered them what she had wholeheartedly, but in the none of them were satisfied, which made Olivia feel very helpless.
iel hugged Olivia and patted her head. His tone was low and gentle when he said, âOlivia, you didnât nything wrong. Youâre just too reserved. Your effort clearly deserves ten points, but your performance showed one point out of them. This is too disadvantageous.
5 wonât do. You have to say what youâve done, show it, and let others know.
ow you well. Today, I was bullied by Alexander. I know that you seemed to be indifferent, but behind ack, you would definitely stand up for me and remind Alexander to be careful when doing things. did do something for me, but you did it behind my back. I didnât know at all, so I might misunderstand you.
âOf course, I know you well, Olivia, I know that you have the most tender heart and are most sincere to others. I would never misunderstand you. But others donât know you well, so those people may misunderstand you.â
At this point, Daniel even gave an example. âTake Gillian as an example. You almost did everything you could to treat her well. You secretly sent over everything she wanted and gave her a chance every time. However, she didnât know your intention. Instead, she felt that you were showing off and wanted to snatch her things.
âThis is the danger of only doing things without showing your meaning.â
Olivia looked down, deep in thought.
When Daniel noticed that Olivia was frowning and did not seem to be in a good mood, his heart began to ache again. He regretted saying too much.
At this moment, Daniel was like a worried old mother who had to educate her child but was also worried that if she said too much, her child would be sad.
He touched Oliviaâs head and said gently, âI know that youâre the best person in the world, Olivia.
Those people donât understand you because theyâre narrowâminded. Could you stop being sad and ignore them from now on?â
âOkay.â Olivia nodded and smiled brightly.
