Chapter 364: 364: Too High for Everyone to Reach

Daniel Marshall looked at Olivia Jenkins with tender eyes, he even served her food.

No one uttered a word. Olivia knew she was right — someone was indeed plotting to get rid of both her and Daniel in one fell swoop.

Perhaps her grandfather and Daniel were suspicious as well, they just didn’t openly tell her.

The Marshall family was the richest in the country, drawing all eyes to them. Heavy was the head that wore the crown — they could only keep moving ahead, through whatever storms were thrown their way.

Especially Daniel. He wielded great power, which certainly attracted envy. The challenges he had to endear were bound to be higher than hers.

Perhaps Daniel was already accustomed to this kind of life, filled with overt and covert struggles. Instances of intrigue might feel so overwhelming to her merely because she was inexperienced and young.

Oddly, Olivia felt a tinge of sympathy for Daniel, who had to live his life constantly under the sword.

Matthew Marshall’s surgery was successful, and he had regained consciousness and had been moved to a ward.

Bella Thompson’s phone vibrated — she knew she had received a message.

Taking advantage of a bathroom break, Bella sneaked a look at the message.

A spy from Beverly Hills reported, the old man had ordered his top chefs to prepare a lavish spread for Olivia and Daniel.

The three of them were dining at Beverly Hills, appearing to be quite happy. The old man appeared to increasingly favor Olivia and coddled her more and more.

Suddenly, Bella’s dim eyes filled with a surging anger, her face showed a fierce emotion.

While her Matthew was in the hospital having surgery, the old man did not accompany him. Instead, he was wining and dining with Olivia and Daniel, having a gay time. Was it right?

The old man was being incredibly biased and crossing the line!

The more Bella thought about it, the angrier she got, and the more injustice she felt.

Just wait and see, one day she and Matthew would control everything in the Marshall family. At that time, they would ruthlessly crush everyone beneath their feet, making them unattainable.

Come on Olivia, flaunt all you want now, climb as high as you can. When the time comes, the harder you’ll fall.Gêtt the latest ch𝒂pters on n𝒐/velbin(.)com

Bella also cursed maliciously in her heart: show off your love, die quicker!

She couldn’t stay in the bathroom for too long. Bella forced herself to swallow her anger and walked out as if nothing had happened.

Matthew was right; they needed a tactical retreat now.

A temporary compromise, a temporary bowing of the head, was not an admission of defeat but a way to wait for an opportune counterstrike.

Sebastian Thompson spotted the news about Olivia. He was disappointed that the plot to kill Olivia and Daniel had not succeeded.

Sebastian Thompson laughed, but his laugh held an ominous undertone.

Geoffrey Gullington played dumb and maintained a blank face.

Sebastian leered at Geoffrey for a moment and then, in a taunting tone, finally broke the silence.

“I’m curious as to what you saw in that wretch?”

Geoffrey replied calmly, “It’s all in the past, why dwell on it?”

“Did you see her status and hoped to marry her to make yourself socially prominent?”

Geoffrey complained bitterly, “If it hadn’t been for her, my future would have been bright. Given my medical skills and the right time, I would have secured a position at the hospital. I have been ruined by the Jenkins and Daniel.”

Sebastian’s smile deepened into a smirk, “I do feel sorry for you, but the problem is that you aren’t ruthless enough. Therefore, you’ll never succeed.”

Geoffrey stayed silent, but his heart was brimming with resentment. Whenever possible, he vowed to be ruthless.

“Stay by my side and learn a thing or two.”

Geoffrey looked up towards Sebastian and ventured to ask, “Are you behind this?”

Sebastian’s expression was inscrutable, “If I was the one behind this, Daniel and Olivia would be dead by now. However, I know who has run out of patience and couldn’t resist striking.”

“Who?”

Sebastian’s eyes flamed with contempt and warning, “Meddlesome fool, mind your own business!”
