Bullionaire’s Missing Darling

Chapter 406

When Olivia learned that the Grant family wanted to have a meeting with Daniel, she felt a cold chill run

down her spine.

She was always aboveboard in her dealings with the Grant family. The only exception was when she

drugged Tom. In any case, she was using the Great Nourishment Pill from the Grant family at that time.

She never wanted to use her title as the director of Capitol Research Institute to revoke any

collaboration with the Grant family. She was a firm believer in cutting deals in a fair and just manner.

Since the Grant family did not keep their word and provoked her first, she had no qualms about getting

back at them.

They would compete to determine who was more influential.

Olivia gave a call to Alexander directly.

Alexander was shocked to receive Olivia’s call. When he regained his senses, he figured Olivia was

calling him to plead for Daniel.

Alexander curled his lips and sneered at that thought.

Olivia was still very concerned about Daniel.

He scoffed at Daniel for being such a weakling. He even needed a woman’s help. He wondered what

was wrong with Olivia’s taste. How could she fall for such a wimp like Daniel?

Alexander regarded Daniel with contempt.

Alexandra sat on the couch with his legs crossed. He did not say a word. Instead, he waited for Olivia

to plead with him.

Unexpectedly, Olivia’s first sentence was, “Get First Elder to come and answer the phone.”

Alexander was dumbfounded.

His confident facade crumbled when he was unexpectedly confronted with

Olivia’s abrupt orders.

Olivia was not looking for him. She wanted to speak to the First Elder.

Anger rushed through Alexander. His hand was shaking. “Why are you calling me to look for First

Elder?”

Alexander clenched his jaw, trying to press down his anger.

Olivia blinked, surprised at how angry Alexander was. However, she had more important things to do

and did not think about his feelings.

She replied bluntly, “I can’t get through to the First Elder. That’s why I called you. Ask him to come

over.”

Alexander clenched his fists in anger.

Olivia only regarded him as a messenger.

Rage seared through Alexander, and resentment clouded his thoughts. He had the urge to smash his

phone. However, for some reason, he felt an invisible force forcing him to grip the phone tight.

He could only reply curtly, “Wait a moment. I’ll go and get the First Elder.” Alexander was already

feeling very aggrieved to give in to Olivia’s demands. To make matters worse, Olivia added coldly, “Go

and look for him yourself. You should also listen to what I have to say.”

He fumed inwardly, “How dare Olivia bark orders at me!”

Alexander’s face contorted with rage.

Brimming with anger, he went out with his phone. He bumped into Bettany, who was running in his

direction.

Alexander frowned. “Why are you running? Didn’t you attend etiquette classes? It’s very rude to knock

over someone.”

Bettany instantly stopped in her tracks. The smile on her face faded, replaced by a watchful and

ingratiating expression.

She stood upright and tried to appear graceful. “Alexander, I made some ravioli. Would you like to try

them?”

Alexander looked displeased. “Didn’t I tell you to stay out of the kitchen? There are servants handling

such chores. All you have to do is to stay by my side and behave yourself.”

Bettany lowered her head, looking helpless. “I’m sorry, I just wanted to…”

Before she could finish speaking, Alexander interrupted impatiently, “I’m busy. I have to go out for a

while.”

With that, he quickly left.

Bettany followed after him. “Alexander, where are you going?”

Alexander ignored her and quickened his pace. At the same time, he picked up his phone and

explained, “The First Elder should be in the building at the back. I’m making my way there. I need

around two minutes. Don’t get too anxious.”

There was no response on the other end of the phone.

Puzzled, Alexander called out, “Are you there, Olivia? Are you still there?” Olivia Taylor?

Bettany’s body stiffened as she followed behind him. She instinctively clenched. her fists.

Alexander was takling to Olivia on the phone.

Bettany wondered, “What did Olivia say to him? Did she mention anything about the whistle?”

Bettany suddenly felt nervous.

It was a long while before Alexander heard Olivia’s voice on the phone. “What’s up? Is the First Elder

here?”

Alexander was flabbergasted.

He gritted his teeth. “Not yet. Where did you go just now? I called out to you a few times. Do you know

that I…”

Olivia interrupted, “Just go look for the First Elder. Give me a call when you find.

him.”

She then hung up abruptly.

Alexander was about to explode with rage. He almost smashed the phone.

The First Elder was in a meeting with the other elders in the conference room. Alexander called Olivia

after making his way to the conference room. He changed the phone to speaker mode and said coldly,

“What’s up? You can tell us now.” The First Elder and the others looked at each other, confused. They

did not understand what Alexander meant. Who was he talking to on the phone? When they heard

Olivia’s voice from the other end of the phone, the First Elder understood what it was all about.

So it was Olivia who wanted to talk to him.

He taunted Olivia for being impatient, even though he had requested a meeting with Daniel not long

ago. At first, he thought Olivia could wait, but to his surprise, she was now pleading with Daniel so

quickly.

It was no fun at all.

The First Elder was calm and composed. He waited for Olivia to speak first. He wanted her to beg him.

Olivia leaned back in her chair. Except for the cold gaze in her eyes, her face was devoid of any

expression.

She narrowed her eyes and said, “First Elder. Where’s the report on the Great Nourishment Pill that I

asked for earlier?”

First Elder was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Olivia to ask for the report at such a time.

He frowned. “Olivia, did you call just to ask for the report on the Great Nourishment Pill?”

Olivia ignored the First Elder’s question. She repeated, “Where is it?”

“Olivia, I’m asking you a question. Didn’t you hear me?” The First Elder felt a flash of irritation and was

unable to suppress his anger. “What kind of lowly upbringing did you have? You’re very rude. Didn’t

Isaac teach you manners? I really don’t know how Isaac could bring up such a rude girl like you.”

The more the First Elder spoke, the angrier he became. He could not care less

about his righteous image as an elder.

He always carried himself with dignity and spoke with restraint, rarely talking at length. Also, he hardly

used harsh words on anyone.

However, Olivia was testing his limits.

Olivia’s expression was indifferent. She continued to ignore him. “First Elder, I’m asking you. Where is

the report?”

The First Elder was so angry that he was shaking with fury. “Olivia, you bitch. All you know is to ask for

the report. Can you listen to me? I’m telling you. There’s no such report. There’s nothing at all.”

“Oh, I understand now.” Olivia softened her voice. She continued impassively, “Now that this matter is

closed, let’s talk about something else. We have other scores to settle.”

Other scores?

The First Elder shuddered. He suddenly had a bad feeling.
