Billionaire’s Missing Darling by Theresa Wilde

Chapter 165

Olivia never liked to argue with people. However, things seemed to have gotten so out of hand that she needed to confront both Jarron and Gillian.

“Who said you will become intelligent after reading the book? she asked. Gillian looked up. “Grandpa Isaac said so.” Olivia only lived with the Smith family for less than a year, but she had already shown astonishing intelligence. She was a fast learner and could grasp any information after seeing the information once.

Over time, Gillian began to feel inferior to Olivia. She did not understand why Olivia could memorize half of the book’s medicinal ingredients while Gillian had barely finished reading one page.

In addition, Olivia could also analyze the properties of the medicine. Sensing Gllian’s inferiority complex, Isaac would hug her. He comforted Gillian, “You’re not learning as fast as Olivia, not because you are not smart enough. It’s the book ‘Mind Of A King‘ that Olivia is reading. This book can make someone more intelligent. When you’re older, I will also teach you from this book. You will become smarter than Olivia.”

Olivia kept quiet for a long time.

She originally had her legs crossed, but when she heard what Gillian said, she straightened her legs and rested them on the coffee table. Supporting her chin with one hand, she chuckled softly.

Ignoring Gillian, Olivia turned to Jarron. She tilted her head and asked, “Jarron, are you here to cheer me up because you know I’ve been in a bad mood recently?”

Sensing Olivia’s questioning look, Jarron felt embarrassed. He wished he could remove himself from the awkward situation.

He was aware that Gillian always grumbled about not being able to learn ‘Mind Of A King. She often claimed the book could make someone intelligent. However, he never found out why Gillian had harbored that thought.

Isaac was trying to comfort Gillian and was not serious when he said that. No one expected Gillian to believe what Isaac said.

Jarron felt ashamed when he recalled how overbearing he had been to

Olivia earlier.

“What do you mean?” Gillian frowned at Olivia.

Gillian was completely obsessed with how ‘Mind Of A King‘ could make a person smarter. If it was someone else Isaac said those words to she would have guessed that Isaac was not telling the truth. She would think he was only trying to pacify the person. However, she did not have the same self–awareness when she was the party involved. She was very sure reading the book would make her more intelligent.

Olivia looked up at Gillian without saying a word. She merely leaned over and took an orange from the coffee table. She then started to peel the fruit.

Olivia took a bite of the freshly peeled orange and said dismissively, “You claimed that I became smarter after learning ‘Mind Of A King. I
