Billionaire’s Missing Darling by Theresa Wilde

Chapter 182

It was December, and Layfield was already very cold.

Olivia was wrapped in a solid–colored, knee–length cashmere coat, unbuttoned, with a loose belt at the waist.

She wore a pair of four–centimeter sheepskin ankle boots, revealing her long and slender calves.

She had always dressed up in sportswear. Her clothes were simple and casual, and she always wore sneakers.

This was the first time Gillian had seen her dressed like this.

Standing at 170 cm in height, plus the 4 cm heels, she exuded a commanding presence.

She just stood there indifferently without saying a word, exuding an invisible pressure.

Gillian pinched her pale fingers, feeling an inexplicable joy, and with a casual excuse, she muttered, “Why are you dressed like this? Prioritizing style over comfort, huh?”

At first, Olivia did not realize that it was Gillian. She only heard someone speak and subconsciously stood up to look back.

When she saw Gillian, her eyes were calm, without any emotions.

It was as if she did not see her.

She turned around, squatted down, and continued to pick Gastrodia elata herbs.

Her dismissive attitude left Gillian somewhat embarrassed.

She couldn’t help but raise her voice and asked, “Didn’t you hear me talking to you?”

Lindsay heard the commotion and quickly walked over. When she saw Olivia, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes. Then, she gloated and said, “How did you end up like this? Are you working as a gardener for them?” She shook her head and mocked intentionally, “Tsk tsk, your social status seems to be plummeting. Why don’t I have my grandfather secure a position for you at the company, with a higher salary, say, 240 dollars a month.”

“What do you say? It sounds like a plan, right?”

Olivia handed the Gastrodia elata in her hand to the maid on the left and patted the dirt off her hands before turning around.

Her expression was calm, and there was no trace of anger on her face. Instead, she only lowered her head slightly and glanced at Lindsay. Lindsay’s heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly felt weak in her legs.
