Chapter 106

How could this be? Isaac’s granddaughter was actually Olivia? That was impossible. It was absolutely impossible!

Yvonne’s emotions completely spiraled out of control. Madness surged in her eyes as she continuously shook her head. Her body trembled. She couldn’t accept everything that was happening right before her eyes.

The others around were equally dumbfounded by this earth–shattering revelation. It took a while for them to recover their senses.

“Aren’t you the Taylor family’s daughter? How could you be Mr. Smith’s granddaughter? You don’t even share the same surname!” Harper was the first to regain her composure and blurted out.

This was the question everyone was pondering. All eyes turned to Olivia.

The situation was too skeptical. It was hard to believe how Olivia could be connected to the renowned doctor’s lineage. When the Taylor family found her, they had investigated her origins. The person who adopted her was just an ordinary doctor.

Yvonne also thought of this, her eyes growing dark. She bit down on her lower lip until it bled. She suppressed the overwhelming emotions that threatened to burst forth.

Hearing Harper’s question, Olivia raised her eyes. Her eyes exuded an icy yet alluring aura. A faint reddish hue adorned the corners of her eyes, accentuating her pitch–black eyelashes.

A cold glimmer flashed in her eyes. It was an intensity that was nearly unbearable to behold. She oozed a dominant aura, but she also had a subtle seductive charm.

As everyone’s gaze fell upon her, the room fell into a hushed silence. The atmosphere was so tense that no one dared to breathe. All eyes riveted on her as if she were the most dazzling figure under the spotlight.

It was the first time Olivia had truly faced Yvonne head–on.

Before this, Olivia had never cast a direct gaze at Yvonne. Nor had she ever taken her seriously. She treated her with complete indifference. “The Taylor family?” Olivia’s dark eyes curved slightly, and she smirked. There was a hint of mockery in her nonchalant expression. “Who are they to investigate the Smith family’s background?”

Olivia never acknowledged the Taylor family, one of the four great families in Evervale. She never thought of them as significant!

For a moment, everyone’s hearts surged. They were shocked beyond words.

Olivia was really arrogant!

As Olivia’s words fell, Yanis stepped forward, assuming a protective stance in front of her and locking eyes with the crowd.

His voice was cold. “If it weren’t for Ms. Taylor’s consent, do you think the Taylor family alone could so easily pry into the Smith family?”

The Smith Family was a renowned medical family that spanned over a thousand years of history. Its talents were scattered across the world. Not to mention the family’s internal strength, even on a national level, there were individuals secretly protecting their interests.

Isaac was a national treasure–level renowned doctor, and Olivia’s medical skills surpassed his own.

Leaders who often appeared on national news broadcasts would personally visit Layfield to have their pulse checked by her grandfather. Olivia had grown up alongside these influential figures.

Anyone who dared to bully Olivia must have a death wish!

“Ms. Taylor has been searching for her family for years. Mr. Smith has long known about her origins.

However, due to the complexities within. the Taylor family, like her father’s partiality, her mother’s psychological issues, and the presence of a special adopted daughter, Mr. Smith was worried that the turmoil in the Taylor family might adversely affect her character and ruin her. That’s why he didn’t reveal her true identity earlier.”

Yanis coldly stared at Yvonne, his expression dripping with disdain. “Do you actually believe that your social connections and personal charm are what caught Mr. Smith’s attention?”

Yvonne’s face turned pale when she heard this. She felt a dizzying sensation overwhelm her. She almost lost her balance.

Yanis‘ gaze was filled with mockery. “Mr. Smith went to the Taylor family for the sake of Ms. Taylor. He treated Mr. Liam Taylor and gave him the precious pill because of her. It’s laughable that you actually thought it was your own abilities that earned you his favor. How dare you distort the truth and insult Ms.

Taylor!”

After finishing his sentence, Yanis anger surged, and his eyes turned red with hatred. He couldn’t help but want to lash out at those who had mistreated and belittled Olivia just moments ago.

Who did they think they were? Just because they had some money, they thought they could freely bully others. They acted like they were the king.

They were nothing more than merchants!

“Mr. Smith!” Yanis turned to look at Isaac and complained to him, “You didn’t see what happened just now. All these people insulted Ms. Taylor, especially her!”

He pointed at Grayson. “He even tried to forcibly take Ms. Taylor away.”

Isaac’s gaze turned sharp when he heard that.

Criticized by Yanis, Grayson turned pale. Her face was drained of color. She felt as if all the blood had drained from her body, leaving her immersed in bitterness.

Cultivation and manners prevented Isaac from uttering condescending words. He merely cast a cold glance at Grayson before turning around, He did not even spare a second look at the Sullivan family members. “Olivia, Grandpa will bring you home.”

Olivia took Isaac’s hand. She raised her chin slightly and smiled brightly. “Grandpa, let me introduce you to someone.”

Issac was slightly stunned. He looked at Olivia’s smile in a daze.

It had been five years. Ever since the incident occurred, this was the first time he had seen her so relaxed and happy, Seeing that his granddaughter was happy, Isaac was delighted, too. His eyes carried a hint of anticipation. “Oh, who do you want me to meet?” Olivia turned around, her gaze scanning the crowd until they landed on Daniel.

As if receiving her signal, Daniel stepped forward and walked to Olivia’s side. The two of them held hands.

“Grandpa,” Olivia introduced, “This is Daniel Sullivan, my boyfriend. Daniel turned around and nodded at Isaac respectfully. “Hello, Grandpa.” He stood in the middle of the courtyard, and his well–fitted suit accentuated his tall and elegant figure. As he stepped into the yard, he effortlessly drew everyone’s attention and became the spotlight.

The smile on Isaac’s face deepened when he saw this. He had already .

admired this young man earlier. His demeanor was outstanding, and he conducted himself with confidence. He was indeed an excellent young man.

Isaac couldn’t help but exclaim, “Olivia, you have great taste.”

At this point, there was no way they could leave. Everyone escorted Olivia and Daniel back indoors.

This was her second time entering the room, and it was a complete contrast to the first visit in terms of treatment.

However, her expression remained unchanged. Just like before, she was composed and self–assured.

She didn’t feel inferior due to the cold reception. Nor did she become arrogant and conceited from the warm welcome.

She was forever calm and collected, humble and refined. This noble and elegant demeanor seemed to be ingrained in her bones. It wouldn’t be affected by external changes.

Isabella had been observing Olivia in secret. Although she was shocked to learn that Olivia was the granddaughter of the renowned doctor, she didn’t quite admire her. It wasn’t until this moment, when she witnessed Olivia’s poised demeanor, that she started to admire and develop a liking for this young woman.

This was the true temperament of a noble lady.

It was a natural disposition, without fear of being kind to others, offending anyone, or caring about the surrounding disdain. She had self–assuredness, capability, and refinement. She could handle any situation with ease.

Earlier, she had been wrong in her judgment. She was short–sighted and judged Olivia only based on her appearance.
