Chapter 405
Billionaire’s Missing Darling
The head of the Grant family would not easily get involved in such matters. The political circles in the country were very special. Unlike other circles, it was taboo for those in power to abuse their power for personal gain.
He could support the family in private and promote the younger generation of the family, but he had to be fair and just on the surface. He could not bend the law for personal gain.
Otherwise, not to mention affecting his reputation, his political enemies would bite him to death!
He was at the center of the political vortex, and everyone watched his every move. It was impossible for him to personally go and make things difficult for a woman like Olivia.
However, this incident was too big. Great Nourishment Pillâs matter concerned the Grant familyâs life and death. Once this matter was exposed, he would be the first to fall.
Not to mention, being in the political power circle, even business would be dealt a huge blow.
He had to destroy Olivia while she was still vulnerable and had not made any moves.
Therefore, the head of the Grant family made an exception and made an appointment with Daniel.
After the news spread, the upperâclass society was stunned. They discussed whether Daniel had touched some taboo. Otherwise, why would the higherâups ask to see him for no reason?
Although the news of the Grant familyâs appointment with Daniel had not spread completely, it was only circulated in a small area.
However, it also dealt a considerable blow to the Sullivan family.
Loaning banks have raised interest rates and shortened loan maturities, requiring the Sullivan companies to pup quickly.
The partners began to lose confidence in the Sullivan family and canceled their cooperation. Some shareholders also started to sell their shares.
The media kept a low profile and removed all the previous interviews about Daniel. The entertainment industry no longer discussed the matter of the wealthiest man and the head of the Taylor family.
Twitter even blocked the two keywords, Daniel and Olivia. All the posts about. them disappeared.
For a moment, the Sullivan family was in a state of panic, and the storm was striking. It was like a small boat swaying in the sea.
This was the power of politics. A small action could make the wealthiest man in the country keep a low profile.
First Elder had been paying attention to this news. Seeing this, he sneered. âThis is nothing. In two days, the Miss Liebsig will meet Daniel. If we label him as a monopoly, the Sullivan family will suffer.â
The Second Elder sat at the side and waved a feather fan. âJarron, you were too softâhearted previously. Couldnât you have dealt with Olivia earlier? You didnât have to let her jump around for so long. Itâs annoying to watch.â
Bettany happened to bring coffee over to the two elders. When she heard this, she was very surprised and subconsciously looked up.
She wondered, âWhat did that mean? Had the Grant family taken action against Olivia?â
The Second Elder took coffee cups and raised his eyebrows as he glanced at Bettany. He said, âI remember that youâre Oliviaâs junior. Did the two of you acknowledge the same Miss Liebsig?â
Bettany replied respectfully, âItâs Painting Associationâs Mrs. Liebsig. Olivia and I learned painting from Mrs. Liebsig.â
âOh.â Second Elder nodded and said in a benevolent tone, âYouâve served Mr. Alexander well during this period of time. Iâll reward you with a favor. Hurry up and tell your Miss Liebsig to keep her away from Olivia. Otherwise, her position as the president will be gone.â
When he said this, Second Elderâs tone was casual as if the title of the president of the Painting Association was just an identity that was not worth mentioning in his eyes. He casually reached out and took it off.
Bettany was shocked and overjoyed.
The Grant family was too snobbish. It was so big that it exceeded her imagination. He could actually casually decide the candidate for the president.
Bettany nodded at Secodn Elder and ran upstairs to make a call.
As soon as Mrs. Liebsig picked up, Bettany quickly said, âMiss Liebsig, something happened.
Something happened to Olivia.â
When she heard that something had happened to Olivia, Mrs. Liebsig subconsciously stood up. Her eyes were filled with worry. âWhat happened to Olivia? Donât be anxious.
Tell me slowly.â
Bettany took a deep breath. âOlivia has angered the Grant family. Now, the Grant. family is going to attack Olivia. The Grant family will attack everyone related to Olivia if they donât express their attitude immediately and cut ties with Olivia. âMiss Liebsig, do you know the Grant family? The Grant familyâs family head is the one who appeared on the television news. Now, Daniel has already been interviewed. After the Sullivan family is settled, it will be your turn.â
Mrs. Liebsig found it unbelievable. She had a good impression of the Grant familyâs family head. In her memory, Mr. Grant was the same as Mr. Book. He was a good official who served the country and the people. Why would he mobilize so many people to deal with a little girl like Olivia?
This was too exaggerated.
Seeing that Mrs. Liebsig did not believe her, Bettany panicked. âMiss Liebsig. believe me. I heard it from First Elder and Second Elder.â
At this point, Bettany paused for a moment. Her tone began to become subtle and carried an unknowing sense of superiority. âMiss Liebsig, Second Elder said that he will let you off on my account as long as you make a statement and draw a line with Olivia.â
âNonsense!â Mrs. Liebsig reprimanded. âThe news is still uncertain. How can you believe everything you hear? Even if itâs true, Olivia is still my student. This will. never change.â
âMiss Liebsig.â Bettany frowned. She was very dissatisfied with Mrs. Liebsigâs attitude. She felt that she did not know how to appreciate favors. If it were not for her, the Grant family might have dealt with Mrs.
Liebsig.
Not only did Mrs. Liebsig not appreciate her kindness, but she was also stubborn. She even wanted to help Olivia.
Bettany was very angry.
She said angrily, âMiss Liebsig, donât blame me for not reminding you. If something really happens to you, I wonât plead for you.â
âBettany, what are you saying?â Mrs. Liebsig was very surprised. âYou disappoint me. Not only did Olivia save you, she healed your right hand and let you pick up your paintbrush again. She even recommended you to me. Arenât you grateful at all that Olivia saved your life?â
âWhatâs the point of saying all this now?â Bettany flew into a rage out of humiliation. âSheâs the one whoâs arrogant and conceited. She insisted on going against the Grant family. What has it got to do with me? The Grant family is so powerful. What can I do?â
Mrs. Liebsig did not want to talk to Bettany and hung up.
When she heard the busy tone on the other end of the phone, Bettanyâs eyes turned cold as she said in a low voice, âYou donât know whatâs good for you!â
Then, she turned around and stomped downstairs. She ran to Second Elder and said, âSecond Elder, do whatever you want with Mrs. Liebsig. You donât have to let her off on my account.â
Second Elder was discussing the rest of the plan with First Elder when he heard Bettanyâs words. He immediately choked..
Second Elder stared at Bettany with a speechless expression.
The Grant family had no time to deal with so many people. Was he going to make the entire world his enemy? He only had to deal with the Smith family and the Sullivan family to restrain most of the forces. There was no need to complicate matters.
For those who were not related to him, he would usually threaten them and would not attack.
What he said to Bettany just now was just to scare Mrs. Liebsig so that she would take the initiative to draw a line with Olivia.
Unexpectedly, Bettany could not even handle such a small matter. She actually came over to ask him to deal with Mrs. Liebsig.
She was such a fool.
Did she really think that she could ask him to do anything she wanted?
