Chapter 488
Billionaire’s Missing Darling
It would take some time to prepare breakfast, so Lucy and the rest didnât. wait around, going back to their rooms to do what they needed to do. The three of them were unhappy with Berry and often sat together to complain about her. However, the three of them were also competitors. and had their own thoughts, so they couldnât stay in each otherâs company for long either.
In the room, Lucy had just sat down when she received a call from Jason. Lucy looked at the familiar number on her phone and closed her eyes, not answering the phone.
However, the other party seemed to have a lot of patience and kept calling.
Lucyâs heart softened, so she answered the call. âJason.â
âLucy, you finally answered your phone.â
The corners of Lucyâs mouth twitched, and she said in a mocking tone, âWhat difference does it make?
Jason, we canât be together anymore.â
âLucy, listen to me.â Jason took a deep breath. âEverything Iâm saying now is very important. You have to listen carefully.â
Lucy frowned, not knowing what Jason was up to.
Jason held the phone tightly. âMs. Taylor from the Hushe Republic contacted me.â
âThatâs it?â Lucyâs face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost. âWhatâs the big deal?â
âLucy!â Jasonâs tone quickened. âThereâs more than meets the eye with regards to âMs. Taylor! Her identity isnât simple. Sheâs related to the Hushe Republicâs Capitol Research Institute.â
âCapitol Research Institute!â Lucy suddenly raised her voice, her voice. almost cracking.
Capitol Research Institute was famous internationally.
Over the past few years, Capitol Research Institute published several scientific research results which shocked the world. Now, the entire world. was watching Capitol Research Institute. In the past, the top students in the Hushe Republic wanted to go overseas and learn top science and. technology from Mala or Eichen.
Now it was the complete opposite. All the scientific research geniuses around the world were trying to study in the Hushe Republic, hoping that they could enter Capitol Research Institute.
It was a paradise that all the top students in the world yearned for. Braeden had wanted to obtain a technology licensing from Capitol Research Institute some time ago, However, the scale of the Lopez familyâs company was too small, so Capitol Research Institute was not interested. In the end, they collaborated with a large international corporation.
Braeden had been brooding over this matter and could not let it go. If he could get the authorization, the Lopez familyâs business would definitely advance rapidly and at least double in size.
This matter was huge!â Lucy thought.
Lucyâs heart skipped a beat. âHow can âMs. Taylorâ be related to Capitol Research Institute? Is your information accurate?â
âYes!â Jason nodded. âYes, âMs. Taylorâ told me herself. She contacted me yesterday and said that she knew the higherâups of Capitol Research Institute and could speak to them. I didnât believe it at first, but after some investigation, I confirmed that she can indeed speak to the higherâups of Capitol Research Institute!â
âThatâs great!â Lucy was excited, and her previous gloominess was swept away.
Hearing his beloved womanâs happy voice, Jason was satisfied. Jason said. in a low voice, his tone magnetic and affectionate, âLucy, wait for me. As long as I get the medical license from Capitol Research Institute, I can completely control the Sprout family and help them stand out!
âAs long as I stand at the center of stop us from being power, no one ca together!â
Lucy was also fired up by what Jason had just told her. Even so, she still had some rationality. âJason, whatâs going on with that âMs. Taylorâ? Why did she look for you? Will she make things difficult for you?â
âWhat else could it be? Sheâs a woman. Of course, itâs about love.â Jasonâs tone was indifferent.
Although he had to rely on âOliviaâ to obtain Capitol Research Instituteâs medical license, he did not take her seriously. âLucy, donât worry. Itâs not anything serious. She just wants me to pay attention. to Danielâs movements.â
âI see. Lucy nodded, understanding the situation. âIt just so happens that stain Missing Darling Iâm at Maple Villa and by Danielâs side. If Daniel has any special movements, Iâll tell you immediately.â
After hanging up the phone, Lucy figured that breakfast was almost ready and hurried downstairs.
Everyone was already in the dining area, including Daniel. Lucy apologized, âSorry for being late.â
Daniel sat at the center of the table. He was wearing a black cloudâpatterned shirt with two buttons undone, revealing his exquisite collarbones. Daniel sat there quietly, looking so good that he almost didnât look like a real person.
Lucy sighed inwardly. âSuch an outstanding man. No wonder that Ms. Taylor is so careful. Lucy thought.
Daniel didnât care that Lucy was late. He didnât even look up at her and just nodded casually in response.
Breakfast was served very quickly. First, there was a bowl of cereal, followed by steamed buns, sunnyâ
sideâup eggs, and sausages.
At first, Lucy didnât notice anything out of the ordinary, but as more and more dishes were served, her mind buzzed. Lucy suddenly remembered what Berry had said downstairs.
Lucy realized that these were all Berryâs favorite dishes.
Berry had mentioned so many dishes, but Ellis had not missed a single one and prepared all of them.
Lucyâs heart raced, and her mind went blank. For a moment, Lucy wasnât sure if Ellis was meticulous and was especially friendly to everyone or if he only gave such special treatment to Berry.
Irene and Joey stared at the table, which was full of breakfast dishes as if they were statues. They sat at the table in a daze, only the color of their faces changing, going from sickly to pale.
When Olivia saw the table full of breakfast dishes, she was also a little. surprised. However, Olivia quickly remembered that many of the foods she had asked for were Danielâs favorites, so they were probably not specially prepared for her.
At the thought of this, Oliviaâs tense heart relaxed. Then, Olivia looked up and observed Daniel quietly.
As soon as Oliviaâs gaze landed on Daniel, he instantly noticed it.
With a swoosh, Danielâs entire body tensed up.
Wind & Mixing Daling Danielâs whole body screamed at him, âLivy is looking at me! Livy is looking at me!â
As soon as this signal was sent, Daniel instantly became elegant and beautiful. Even the image of him eating cereal was extremely beautiful, like a painting.
Olivia quietly observed for a while and realized that Daniel was not behaving any differently. Instead, he ate his breakfast quietly and did not even look in her direction.
Olivia nodded. âI must have been overthinking.â Olivia thought.
After confirming that, Olivia relaxed and began to observe Daniel. Olivia realized that Danielâs posture was incomparably elegant and impeccable when he ate breakfast.
âHow eyeâcatching!â Olivia thought.
Olivia ate her cereal while secretly looking at Daniel. The more Olivia looked at him, the more happy she was.
Meanwhile, Danielâs movements became stiffer and stiffer under Oliviaâs increasingly direct gaze. It was as if something was burning deep in his heart and was about to burn him to ashes.
Daniel thought, âLivy is really straightforward. If she likes something, sheâll keep looking directly at it without hiding it. Livy is really the cutest girl in the world.
Danielâs smooth movements naturally attracted not only Oliviaâs attention but also the other three people. All of them couldnât help but stare at Daniel. Ireneâs eyes were fixed on Daniel, and she couldnât help but say, âDanielâs eating is so elegant.â
Upon hearing this, Danielâs hand that was holding the spoon froze. Daniel slammed the spoon onto the table and looked up. Danielâs deep eyes were filled with coldness and disgust. âIs this the Dale familyâs upbringing? Why are you staring at people like that?â
After saying that, Daniel turned to Ellis and said coldly, âIn the future, let Miss Dale eat alone in her room.â
As soon as Daniel finished speaking, Ireneâs face instantly turned pale. Her lips trembled, and she wished she could find a hole to hide in.
Joey and Lucy also quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look at Daniel.
In the end, only Olivia was left looking at Daniel. Oliviaâs heart was was looking at him just now too. Would he despise me for that?â Olivia wondered Olivia lowered her eyes, a look of worry flashing across them. Olivia did not dare to look in Danielâs direction.
Daniel, who noticed Olivia lowering her head, was instantly unhappy.
Why isnât Livy looking at me?â Daniel thought.
