As she left the room, she spotted Mr. Valtor waiting outside. Concerned, he peered into the room and inquired softly, “Are you okay. Ms. Olivia?”
“I’m fine.” Olivia nodded and murmured, “Mr. Valtor, please prepare a light dinner tonight. Liam hasn’t fully recovered yet, so he needs to recuperate.”
“Alright,” Mr. Valtor nodded and advised her, “You should also get some rest. You haven’t been sleeping well since you returned to the country. If your health worsens, I won’t be able to explain it to Joker” Upon hearing this, Olivia couldn’t
it help but smile. “Master is always busy and neglects his health when occupied. He doesn’t have time to worry about me.”
Mr. Valtor also smiled and remarked, “That’s not true. He has always been concerned about you. He frequently calls to inquire about your well–being. He told me that if anyone mistreats you, just stand up for yourself. With him supporting you, no one can harm you. His words were clearly a dig at the Carter family.
Mr. Valtor had been by Joker’s side for many years and was Joker’s confidant. Over the years, he had been assigned to keep an eye on Olivia and was aware of her past. Mr. Valtor treated Olivia like his daughter and Liam like his grandson. Olivia was also like a daughter to Joker.
Olivia heard this and felt a warmth in her heart. She took a deep breath. “It’s okay, no one can hurt me. I’m not the same person I was five years ago!” Mr. Valtor nodded. That’s good! Joker established Mystical Alcazar, and you call the shots. Even the European forces respect you when they see you. Take good care of yourself.”
Olivia smiled in exasperation when she heard this. “If you hadn’t brought Liam back to the country and caused trouble, this wouldn’t have happened.” Mr. Valtor felt slightly embarrassed. I’m old and useless. I was deceived by a child and caused trouble for you, Ms. Olivia.”
“Forget it. What’s done is done. There’s no point in looking into it.” Olivia shook her head. She didn’t really blame Mr. Valtor. They chatted for a while more before Mr. Valtor went downstairs to prepare dinner while Olivia went to the study to work. There was much work involved in establishing a subsidiary. She looked at the stack of documents before her but couldn’t process a single word….
She felt slightly dejected. She believed Nathan would probably come to look for Liam again to conduct a second DNA test. How will I deal with it then? She had no clue. Feeling frustrated, Olivia got up and walked to the wine cabinet, pouring herself a red wine. The crimson liquid swirled in the glass, and she sipped it slowly. She drank two or three glasses without realizing it and heard a car outside just as she started to feel a little dizzy.
She looked down subconsciously through the full–length windows and saw a Maybach slowly stopping in the courtyard. The car had bold and sleek contours, and its plate number was ‘88888. It was Nathan’s car! She was momentarily stunned. Her gaze darkened slightly, and she thought to herself. He came pretty fast!
Soon, the car door opened, and the man’s long legs emerged first. He wore a simple black shirt and trousers outlining his figure, making him look tall and dignified. He had cold, somber features and a handsome face devoid of emotion. His deep black eyes swept around the building before him. Olivia subconsciously dodged out of sight as his gaze swept past the study on the second floor.
Nathan only had time to catch a glimpse of a fleeting shadow and thought he was mistaken! He looked away and was about to walk to the door when Benjamin happened to return and saw him. He immediately stopped Nathan. “Why are you here again, Mr. Carter?” Nathan narrowed his eyes, gazed at the sophisticated, attractive man before him, and calmly stated, “Tve come to look for Olivia”
Benjamin responded, “I understand you’ve come to look for her, but I’m afraid Ms. Olivia isn’t interested in seeing you Please leave.” Nathan was annoyed when he heard it, and his gaze turned icy and menacing. “You have no right to stop me from seeing her. Step aside!” His aloof demeanor conveyed a commanding presence as if he wouldn’t take no for an answer.
