Chapter 589
Billionaire’s Missing Darling
Olivia shumbered deeply through the night. In her dream, she found herself enveloped in a tender and cozy embrace, a warmth that enveloped her in a profound sense of tranquility and security.
As morning light gently filtered into the room, Olivia stirred from her shumber and stretched with a contented ease.
It was peculiar, she mused. Why did I sleep so profoundly last night? It was the most restful slumber Iâd experienced in quite some time.
Sitting up in bed, Olivia realized she had slept on the side against the wall, rather than in the middle, almost as if there had been another presence beside her during the night.
She rubbed her eyes, convinced that perhaps the realm of dreams had momentarily blurred with reality.
On the opposite end of the story, Yossi arrived in the morning to rouse Andrew from his slumber. As he approached the bedroom door, just before he could raise his hand to knock, he caught sight of Andrew returning from an excursion outside.
Yossiâs astonishment was so profound that his eyes widened like a startled frogâs. Your Highness, youâve risen at such an early hour,â he exclaimed.
âIndeed, Andrew responded with a mere nod, his focus elsewhere. Nevertheless, a radiant mood seemed to envelop him. The corners of his mouth curved upward, and his eyes formed a joyous, contented smile.
âIs there something that brings you joy, Your Highness?â Yossi inquired, his curiosity piqued.
Andrew shook his head and replied, âNo, nothing in particular.â
However, the moment he finished speaking, a spontaneous chuckle bubbled up, and he couldnât help but laugh.
âHa haâ His happiness and contentment today were truly evident.
âWait for me outside.â Andrew instructed as he pushed the door ajar and stepped into the bedroom. He then proceeded to fling himself onto the bed, rolling around in sheer delight.
âHe he, last night. I had embraced Olivia to sleep. Olivia was incredibly compliant and adorable, he chuckled, relishing the memory.
Throughout the night, he had found it difficult to sleep. Instead, he had been captivated by the sight of her, counting the delicate lashes that adorned her eyelids. He simply couldnât get enough of her presence.
However, after reveling in his happiness for a while, he couldnât help but think of Olivia, and a wave of melancholy washed over him.
He cautioned himself not to lower his defenses and not to become entangled in confusion For the next two days, he resolved to deliberately avoid her, keeping his distance and refraining from any contact.
The idea of being separated from Olivia for two whole days cast a shadow over Andrewâs disposition, akin to the foreboding. clouds. No matter what he attempted, he couldnât shake off the feeling of despandency. It sapped his motivation, to the extent that he had no appetite, not even for breakfast, âWhat can I do?â he pondered with a heavy heart. Iâm overcome with sorrow!â
It had been just a brief ten minutes since their separation, yet he felt an overwhelming sadness that drained every ounce of strength from his body.
Andrew remained confined to his/room for an extended period, nearly two hours passing before he emerged with a cold and distant countenance.
âYour Higlutess,â Yossi gazed at him with concern. âAre you feeling well? Should we summon a physicianââ
âItâs alright.â Andrew dismissed the concern with a shake of his head. âLetâs proceed to the study to address the issue.â
Nancy Banks followed closely behind. her heart aching as she observed Andrewâs condition. She hastened to approach him and inquired gently. âIs everything alright, for Prince Andrew?â
Yossi, equally unsure of the situation, ventured a guess, âPerhaps heâs concerned about workâ
Nancy Banks nodded in agreement and let out a sigh. âYour Highness, you are truly devoted, both in your joy and your concern for the wellâbeing of the country and its peopleâ
In the study, Andrew efficiently handled the documents that had been delivered to him, completing the task in less than two hours Afterward, he rested his chin on his hand and gazed out of the window with an expression of uncase.
Yossi and Nancy Banks stood nearby, exchanging perplexed glances as they witnessed the sight.
Could it be that Prince Andrew was facing a challenge or issue that troubled him?
Nancy Banks pondered for a moment and inquired, âYour Highness, is there a political matter causing concern? The queen. did mention that in the event of any difficulties, you could seek her counsel or ronsult with Mr. Newman, âNo issues. Andrew responded, lowering his arms. âIâve completed my tasks. They were straightforward.â
Nancy Banks was puzzled. Then, why does Your Highness appear so distressed?â
âSigh, Andrew sighed, his gaze directed downward, his eyes reflecting a sense of sadness and loneliness. Iâm contemplating how to reprimand Olivia today. I must assert my authority and then take the initiative to explain things to her.â
What sort of predicament is this? Must it be this challenging?
Nancy was speechless.
