Billionaire’s Missing Darling

Chapter 365

Bettany’s emotions crumbled entirely. She had never anticipated that she would appear in such a vulnerable light in Olivia’s perception.

She presumed that Olivia might respond with anger, jealousy, and an inability to embrace the transformations unfolding in their midst.

In the end, Olivia displayed complete indifference toward her, showing no concern whatsoever

As Anne departed from Villa Smith, her complexion was pallid, and her anger raged within. She paid no heed to Bettany above and made a beeline for the Grant family

Upon reaching the Grant household, her initial action was to confer with the First Elder

The First Elder had already surmised that her journey might encounter obstacles, and he harbored little optimism. The principal objective of this expedition was to assess Olivia’s disposition.

Nevertheless, the First Elder had not anticipated Anne’s level of fury. She painstakingly recounted Olivia’s words with great precision.

The First Elder had a chessboard before him and engaged in a solitary game, competing against himself. Upon hearing Anne’s words, he couldn’t contain lus laughter. You my dear, you still lack sufficient experience. It’s astonishing how worked up you ve become over a mere Olivia

The First Elder shook his head as he spoke, utterly dismissing Anne’s words. He regarded the strife berween Olivia and Anne as nothing more than a child’s make–believe game

Not only was he devoid of anger, but he also found the situation intriguing.

“First Elder,” Anne fumed, how can you find this amusing Listen to what Olivia asserted. She declared. that if it’s her project, she won’t bestow it upon the Grant family in the future. Such arrogance! I’m seething with anger, and you’re still laughing

The First Elder continued his chess game. Upon hearing this, he shook his head and delivered a reprimand, “She’s but a young girl, prone to capriciousness and frivolous talk. It’s merely nonsensic banter. You should simply brush it off. Why allow her words to anger you‘

He thought. That young lady, undoubtedly, possessed remarkable capabilities and intelligence. She excelled in the realm of scientific research. Nevertheless, no matter how brilliant she was, she was limited by having only one mind. How many projects could she possibly undertake? It was solely the anti–cancer drug project.

“If she opts

s not to collaborate, then so be it. Are we to cower before her, as if the Grant family is afraid?” Anne finally responded upon hearing the First Elder’s words. She couldn’t help but feel vexed with herself. “I let my anger cloud my judgment. I can’t believe I let myself get upset with her.”

“It’s alright,” the First Elder reassured, not overly bothered by the situation.

He pondered, ‘While the potential profits from anti–cancer drugs are enticing, the Grant family is not so perty as to covet every promising project.
