Chapter 406

When Olivia learned that the Grant family wanted to have a meeting with Daniel, she felt a cold chill run down her spine.

She was always aboveboard in her dealings with the Grant family. The only exception was when she drugged Tom. In any case, she was using the Great Nourishment Pill from the Grant family at that time.

She never wanted to use her title as the director of Capitol Research Institute to revoke any collaboration with the Grant family. She was a firm believer in cutting deals in a fair and just manner.

Since the Grant family did not keep their word and provoked her first, she had no qualms about getting back at them.

They would compete to determine who was more influential.

Olivia gave a call to Alexander directly.

Alexander was shocked to receive Olivia’s call. When he regained his senses, he figured Olivia was calling him to plead for Daniel.

Alexander curled his lips and sneered at that thought.

Olivia was still very concerned about Daniel.

He scoffed at Daniel for being such a weakling. He even needed a woman’s help. He wondered what was wrong with Olivia’s taste. How could she fall for such a wimp like Daniel?

Alexander regarded Daniel with contempt.

Alexandra sat on the couch with his legs crossed. He did not say a word. Instead, he waited for Olivia to plead with him.

Unexpectedly, Olivia’s first sentence was, “Get First Elder to come and answer the phone.”

Alexander was dumbfounded.

His confident facade crumbled when he was unexpectedly confronted with

Olivia’s abrupt orders.

Olivia was not looking for him. She wanted to speak to the First Elder.

Anger rushed through Alexander. His hand was shaking. “Why are you calling me to look for First Elder?”

Alexander clenched his jaw, trying to press down his anger.
