Chapter 47

Since then, Olivia had not returned to the Taylor family, nor had the Taylor family called her.

The incident had nothing to do with Olivia from the beginning to the end. However, they vented their anger on her. Susan was furious and felt indignant for her. “This is too much. Amy wants to adopt a daughter. It’s such a big matter, but no one told you about it. If it weren’t for Mr. Book, you wouldn’t have known.”

Susan had never seen such a family before.

Previously, when she heard that Olivia had found her family, she was secretly happy for Olivia. In the end, Olivia might as well not have found them.

The reason why Susan was angry was not that Amy didn’t tell Olivia about Yvonne’s adoption, but that the grand banquet was about to be held, yet they didn’t even inform Olivia. When the banquet was held, if Olivia wasn’t present, how many people would criticize Olivia?

The daughter of the Taylor family who had been lost for 18 years, had already attracted the attention of the upper class.

If she had not been there that day, who knew what ugly rumors would have spread?

Susan nagged at the side for a long time, but when she realized that Olivia didn’t respond, she turned to look at Olivia. Olivia was immersed in her research again.

Some time ago, Olivia’s laboratory research had produced important results. Several internationally top scientific literature had published her papers. There were also a few universities overseas that had invited her to give a speech overseas. There was even an important award nomination. There were too many things to do, so she did not have time to pay attention to the Taylor family.

During this period of time, Olivia spent almost all her time in the laboratory. Other than the occasional phone calls with Andrew, she spent the rest of her time writing her papers. She didn’t even have time to eat.

That was why Susan stayed here and took care of her.

Olivia rejected the olive branch offered by the university in Mala. She rubbed her sore neck and finally had the time to look at Susan. “What did you just say?”

Susan was speechless.

So Olivia hadn’t heard her complaints.

She had no choice but to reiterate that Amy had moved Yvonne’s household register to the Taylor family in the past two months and said that she wanted to officially adopt Yvonne.

“Oh.” Olivia nodded. She didn’t really care.

Seeing her calm expression, Susan couldn’t take it anymore. She leaned over and said, “Olivia, don’t you think Yvonne is so scheming? She probably committed suicide on purpose.”

Olivia’s expression was originally nonchalant, but when she heard this, she turned to look at Susan.

Seeing Olivia looking at her, Susan immediately widened her eyes like a big dog waiting for praise.

“You’re not stupid,” Olivia said.

Susan was overjoyed. Olivia had praised her.

She happily expressed more opinions. “It’s a pity that Amy can’t see through her true colors. Who would commit suicide for such a reason and insist on blaming you?”

This time, Olivia did not agree. Instead, she chuckled.

Susan blinked in confusion.

“I just praised you for not being stupid, and now you’re being stupid again,” Olivia said.

How direct! Susan’s face instantly turned red with embarrassment.

“Olivia…” She felt wronged.

“Silly.” Olivia glanced at her. “How can people be so easily deceived? Moreover, Aunt Amy is a strong woman who acts decisively in the business world. Yvonne’s reason for committing suicide is simply untenable.”

The more Susan listened, the more confused she became. Since Amy wasn’t deceived by Yvonne, why did she adopt Yvonne and announce it to the world?

Olivia looked out of the window and said calmly, “It’s just that people are biased.”

Hearing this, Susan suddenly understood.

In this case where Olivia was obviously not at fault and Yvonne had obviously committed suicide, Amy chose Yvonne.

Because of her bias, even though Amy knew that Olivia was innocent, she still took her anger out on Olivia.

As if something had fallen into her eyes, Susan’s eyes instantly turned red. She quickly lowered her head and rubbed her eyes.

Susan didn’t dare to imagine how sad Olivia must be. Olivia wasn’t favored and allowed others to misunderstand and slander her.

“Olivia.” Susan was on the verge of tears.

What a sentimental girl. Olivia glanced at her and found it funny.

She stood up, and her slender figure was firm and straight like a bamboo. She was humble and self–

controlled, and there was strength in her gentleness. She was calm, aloof, and upright.

Susan was mesmerized by her beauty and was lost in thought for a while.

Then she heard Olivia’s cold and tenacious voice. “You underestimate me.” What was this? What was the Taylor family? These people were not worthy of affecting her mind at all.

“Olivia, are you going to the banquet in seven days?” Susan asked.

“That day, there will be something more important.”

Before Susan could guess what important matter it was, she followed Olivia to various foreign countries, to various famous schools that she had once dreamed of, and watched those internationally renowned and respected old professors seek guidance from Olivia.

She saw all kinds of famous schools and famous old professors. She could feel the vigor, the courage to do everything for science, the wisdom, the breadth and greatness…

She suddenly stopped thinking about the Taylor family.

Thinking about Yvonne’s suicide and the Taylor family’s actions, Susan felt that they were so low.

Yvonne hustled about trying to make some profits. What a small–minded person.

Olivia’s mind was like the sea of stars. No wonder she ignored the Taylor family.

At this moment, Susan finally understood Olivia.

No matter how rich one was, no matter how powerful a financial group was, it could not compare to a scientist who had made huge contributions to humanity and left a deep mark in history.

the Taylor family announced to the outside world that Yvonne’s banquet would be held in seven days.

This banquet was even better than the previous one held for Olivia. It was even grander. There were all kinds of big shots in the business world, politics, entertainment industry, and so on.

Yvonne followed Amy like a group of stars surrounding the moon.

Amy even announced in public that she would leave her assets to Yvonne after she passed away.

As soon as these words were spoken, it instantly caused a huge commotion in the crowd.

Amy had a lot of businesses under her name. Although they could not compare to the Taylor Group, they were not inferior either. In fact, many of her businesses were overseas and could be liquidated.

Previously, Olivia had only gotten a small share of the Taylor family’s business, but Amy wanted to hand over the business of the Taylor Group in her hands and the business she had developed overseas for so many years to Yvonne.

This girl was not a bloodline of the Taylor family.

She was really lucky.

Everyone present had different thoughts. Although they were complimenting Yvonne, they all had their own thoughts.

Some busybodies even asked about Olivia, “Why don’t I see Miss Olivia on such an important day?”

Hearing the words “Miss Olivia“, Yvonne’s face turned pale. If not for Amy holding her, she would not have been able to stand steadily.

Although Amy missed Olivia, who had been lost for many years, she cared more about Yvonne, who had been by her side for more than ten years. She had not realized it before Yvonne committed suicide.

It wasn’t until Yvonne committed suicide and was about to die that Amy suddenly realized how important this child was to her.

The feelings they had for each other for many years had long condensed into a deep mother–daughter relationship.

Seeing Yvonne’s pale face, Amy quickly said, “She has something on today.”

“What important matter?” a nosy individual probed further, wanting to get to know more. “She isn’t even present for such a significant occasion concerning Ms. Yvonne.”

Amy’s expression changed. She was about to reprimand the busybody. Suddenly, someone in the hall exclaimed.

“Look at the news. Olivia from the Hushe Republic has won the Lasker, Award!”

Lasker Award? Everyone was shocked. This was the weathervane of the Nobel Prize. Many Nobel Prize winners had won the Lasker Award before.
