Chapter 13

In the quiet hall, a clock on the snowy–white wall chimed with a gentle

tone.

It was exactly eight o’clock on the dot!

Members of the Taylor family, who were coming downstairs, happened to meet Olivia face to face as she entered through the main entrance. Olivia walked up to members of the Taylor family and nodded at them. Then, she shifted her gaze toward Liam and addressed him. “Grandpa,” she said.

This word completely alleviated the sense of uncertainty among everyone in the hall.

Everyone thought, “So, she is the precious darling of the Taylor family who went missing for 18 years!”

All the previous negative speculations, malicious talks, and mocking glances froze at this moment.

There was even a hint of astonishment deep within their hearts.

Everyone thought, “So, this is the true socialite. She has light makeup, and she wears a red dress. Without saying anything, she calmly captivates everybody in the entire hall with her elegance.”

Unknowingly, everyone faded into the background.

“Damn!” Ethan’s friend, who had been joking around with him, muttered a curse under his breath. Then, he suddenly stood up.

His sudden movement caught the attention of the people around him, and all of them looked at him.

That friend of Ethan did not look at anyone else. He only looked at Ethan. “Ethan, let me ask you something,” he said. “Are you really not interested in this Olivia?”

Ethan, who had already sensed his friend’s intention, had a grim expression. His jaw was tense, and he displayed a clear expression of displeasure.

His friend chuckled softly and said, “Ethan, don’t be too greedy.” Upon saying that, his friend walked ahead.

Olivia managed to rush over in time. This relieved all members of the

Liam looked at his granddaughter worriedly and said, “Where did you go?”

Olivia smiled at him and said, “A friend brought me here.”

Liam nodded. He no longer said anything further. “This isn’t the place to talk things out,” he thought. “I will inquire more after the banquet is over.” Liam then held Olivia’s hand and walked to the very front of the hall to announce Olivia’s identity before everyone in the hall. “From now on, she is the Miss Olivia of the Taylor family,” he said.
