Chapter 162
Billionaire’s Missing Darling
Since they were going to visit Finley, Olivia brought Andrew to the mall to buy some things.
After buying a few gifts, Olivia also bought a few sets of clothes for Andrew. Andrew was obedient and adorable. He didnât seem frustrated even after trying on many clothes and even walked around, posing for Oliviaâs s.
The shop assistants loved Andrew and asked several times if they could take a photo with him.
Andrew was very polite. He took Oliviaâs hand and politely refused. âThank you for liking me, Miss. But Daddy said that I canât take photos when I go out.â
The shop assistants exclaimed, âDid you hear that? He called me Miss. Heâs so sweet.â
When Olivia led Andrew out, the shop assistant was still waving vigorously at him.
Olivia bought a camouflage downâjacket for Andrew. Andrew put it on immediately and even looked up at her with a smile. âI like this one.ââ Olivia stroked his nose and decided they should make their way to go and see Finley.
As soon as Olivia walked out of the mall, Zoila approached her with a worried expression.
âDid something happen?â Olivia asked.
Zoila didnât answer Olivia. Instead, she bent down to look at Andrew. Zoila sized Andrew up carefully for a while and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that he did not look tired.
Then, Zoila looked up at Olivia and said in an uncontrollably cold tone, âMs. Taylor, Mr. Andrew is only five years old. His body canât withstand walking for such a long time. He takes an afternoon nap every afternoon at this time. If you bring him out, you should tell me in advance and pay more attention to his condition.â
Zoila was already prepared to have it all out with Olivia. Even if Olivia became unhappy or complained to Daniel, Zoila would still speak her mind. Zoila felt that Olivia did not look like she was taking care of Andrew at all. Zoila was worried that Olivia would not treat Andrew well 11:15 Billionaire Mrong Darling +
after she married Daniel.
However, the result was unexpected. Not only was Olivia not angry or upset with Zoilaâs tone, but Olivia also reflected on herself.
Olivia lowered her eyes to look at Andrew, and her eyes flashed with heartache.
Olivia felt that she had indeed neglected Andrew.
At the thought of this, Olivia felt extremely sorry. She bent down and hugged Andrew in her arms, apologizing sincerely, âIâm sorry, Andrew. Itâs my fault. I didnât know you were tired.â
âIs Olivia apologizing to me?â Andrew wondered.
Andrew smiled and held Oliviaâs face with both of his small hands. Andrew said seriously, âOlivia, donât apologize. Iâm not tired. Iâll tell you if Iâm tired.â
âHow sensible.â Olivia stroked his nose and asked for Andrewâs opinion. âIâm going to visit Mr. Hill in a while. Do you want to come with me? If youâre tired, you can go back to the hotel with Ms. Milton to rest and Iâll come back later.â
Andrew quickly shook his head and immediately said, âIâm not tired, Iâm not tired. I want to go with you.â
âAlright then.â Olivia nodded. âIf youâre tired, donât force yourself. You can rest at Mr. Hillâs house for a while.â
With that, Olivia stood up and pulled Andrew forward.
After taking a few steps, Zoilaâs disbelieving voice came from behind them. âMs. Taylor, are you bringing Andrew along?â
Olivia looked back at Zoila and nodded.
Zoila found it hard to understand. Zoila felt that Olivia should prioritize Andrew and consider him first.
Andrew was clearly tired, so she felt that Olivia should bring him back to the hotel to rest.
âShe can just visit her teacher tomorrow, or any other day.
âHow could she completely ignore Andrew and only care about herself?â Zoila thought.
In Zoilaâs opinion, Olivia was a daughter who had been separated from the Taylor family for 18 years, and she wasnât worthy of Daniel. Yet, she didnât care for or respect Andrew at all.
Olivia should take care of Andrew, pamper him, be careful at all times, 11.151 $
and always put him as a priority.
Zoila did not know the Smith family or Isaac Smith. In her heart, Olivia was not worthy of Daniel at all.
Zoila felt that it was only because Andrew liked Olivia that she could cling to Daniel. In that case, Olivia should be more aware of her status and her place.
Olivia did not know what Zoila was thinking. Seeing that Zoila was silent, Olivia did not think more about it and led Andrew to the parking lot. The two of them walked happily, both of them complementing each other as they walked hand in hand.
Olivia told Andrew about Finley and how Finley was very skilled in chess. Olivia even asked Andrew if he liked chess. If so, Olivia said she would ask Finley to teach him.
When Andrew heard that Olivia had learned chess before, Andrew wanted to learn it too. However, he had his own worries. âWill Mr. Hill like me?â
âYes,â Olivia said firmly. âI like you, so he will definitely like you too.â
Andrew did not understand this logic, but he understood the first half of the sentence. Andrew immediately smiled, revealing eight small teeth, smiling so widely that his eyes gently closed.
Andrew was so happy that Olivia liked him.
Zoila followed behind the two of them. When Zoila heard Olivia mention letting Andrew learn chess from her teacher, Zoila subconsciously frowned.
Zoila disliked Olivia even more and felt that she had no boundaries. Andrew was Danielâs son and was the youngest of the Sullivan family. If Andrew wanted to learn chess, he would need to learn from a wellârenowned teacher. At the very least, it should be a teacher from Evervale.
âHow could a lousy place like Layfield have a good teacher?â Zoila thought.
Finley didnât live far away. Blake drove them there and they arrived in less than half an hour.
Olivia pulled Andrew along. Olivia took the heavier gifts herself and distributed the lighter ones to Andrew.
Finley had already received a call and knew that Olivia was coming. Finley had been waiting for a long time and rushed over to open the 11:15 Abotonaireâs Mixing Baling.
+6 door almost as soon as they knocked.
Finleyâs wife, Shannon, got such a fright as Finley rushed past her that she shuddered and couldnât help but rebuke him. âYouâre about to grow wings and fly!â
âMr. Hill!â Olivia came in and hugged Finley before running over to hug Shannon.
Before opening the door, Shannon had still been calm. However, once Shannon saw Olivia, she immediately burst into tears. Shannon couldnât help but grab the corner of Oliviaâs clothes tightly. âYou naughty girl. Why havenât you come back to Layfield to visit us for so long?â
Olivia wheedled and coaxed Shannon until she smiled. Then, Olivia turned around and introduced Andrew. âMr. Hill, Mrs. Hill, look who I brought along?â
âLook at this chaos!â Shannon smiled and smacked Olivia lightly. âWeâve scared the little kid.â
Olivia led Andrew in and pushed him in front of Finley. âLook, I found you a new student. What do you think?â
Finley said helplessly, âYou are troublesome enough, and you want me to take another student?â
As everyone entered the house, Shannon went to make some coffee and prepare some snacks. Olivia carried Andrew in her arms and introduced him to Finley. Then, Olivia asked Finley to accept him as a student. âTeach him like how you taught me. Just teach him to play chess for fun.â Finley was angry at the mention of this. All his students were professional chess players who competed in big competitions and made a name for themselves. Olivia, on the other hand, was clearly the most talented, but her skills were the most amateur.
Finley was the student of the âGod of Chessâ, Mason Hughes. Finley had won countless grand prizes and was a national chess player. After Finley retired, he took in some professional chess players as his students. They had only come to him after gaining some fame in the industry to get some pointers.
Only Olivia was different.
Olivia only treated chess as a hobby, but she was Finleyâs favorite student. Finley was already heartbroken enough to have Olivia waste her talent and only treat chess as a hobby. If Finley had another student like Olivia, his heart would really ache.
