Chapter 324

At the Smith Family, Olivia had just sat down and read for a while when Elena Wayne came over and said, “Miss Taylor, some people from the Fulham family have come.”

“Hmm?” Olivia looked up calmly.

Elena explained, “Tucker and Talia Fulham, as well as Bettany Fulham’s stepmother, May, and…” She paused for a moment before continuing, “And your mentor from university, Kate Leach.”

Kate Leach?

Olivia could not help but smile.

The Fulham family was quite smart and knew how to look for people.

If Kate hadn’t come over, Olivia would definitely have refused to meet them.

Kate was Olivia’s mentor in university, who had taken great care of her, and the two of them got along quite well.

Since Kate was here, she would go down and meet her.

In the living room, Tucker and May sat at the side. Kate sat on a separate sofa. Only Talia sat in the corner, looking nervous and uneasy as if she had been bullied like a stress ball.

Before he came, Tucker had mentally prepared himself. He knew that Olivia would not let Bettany go so easily.

Speaking of Olivia, the more Tucker thought about it, the more regretful he became. He never would have thought that such a big shot like Olivia would be hidden in such a small town.

Any one of those titles, when presented, would make his hands and feet tremble. If it weren’t for the Dillon family giving him so many benefits, he wouldn’t have come at all.

Just as he was feeling apprehensive, he heard the sound of movement from upstairs. Tucker subconsciously looked up and saw Olivia walking down the stairs.

She was wearing simple home clothes. The loose and comfortable style complemented her exquisite and slender figure. The clothes on her body and the shoes on her feet could not be more ordinary, but she looked indescribably high–class and graceful in them.
