Billionaire’s Missing Darling by Theresa Wilde - Season 2 Episode 56

Gillian had been holding her phone and waiting anxiously, thinking that Olivia would not move away so easily.

After all, that was her grandfather’s residence. In half a month, many family heads and big shots from all industries would come. They came to the banquet this time to witness the Smith family’s new master and be on good terms with her. Secondly, they wanted to visit Isaac.

They definitely had to go to Grandpa’s place to take a look. If Olivia lived there, they would have a chance to interact with big shots from all industries.

This was something that Gillian did not want to see.

Therefore, she thought of a way to get Olivia to move out.

However, Olivia was not a fool. She would definitely think of this too. For the sake of these connections and resources, in order to be on good terms with the big shots from all industries, she would definitely refuse to leave.

Getting the moving company to move the stuff out was only the first step.

She had to go with her strategy and use a gentle approach. There were still many tricks waiting for her. If Olivia refused to leave, don’t blame her for turning hostile and chasing her out!

Gillian felt that she had a clear conscience. Compared to Olivia’s coldness. and selfishness in the past, who monopolized all the connections and resources and did not give any to her or Jarron, she had already done her best by not chasing Olivia out of the Smith family and even allowing her to flaunt her reputation as the Smith family.

She would not let Olivia attend a banquet that invited people from all industries and heads of top families.

However, she would not deny the existence of Olivia. She would not announce that she had cut ties with her. She would also allow her to secretly rely on the Smith family’s reputation to gain some benefits.

Gillian felt that she had done enough. The Smith family had a big business. If she were given a little residue, it would be enough for her to live a prosperous life.

As long as she was obedient and honest, not greedy or resentful, and not

secretly doing anything, Gillian was still willing to give her some protection.

Gillian was already prepared for Olivia not to move out, but she received a call from the moving company saying that Olivia had already left and moved everything to the hotel.

“So fast?” Gillian was surprised.

“Is it fast?” The manager of the moving company scratched his head, not understanding what Gillian meant.

Gillian quickly added. “What I mean is, did she pester you or say anything?”

Trouble? The manager was stunned. What was there to be troubled about? Wasn’t it just moving house? Why did it become like a family dispute? That Ms. Taylor didn’t even stay for three minutes.

Olivia didn’t mind moving out at all!

After hanging up the phone, Gillian was still in a daze. Olivia’s reaction was really too unexpected. She actually moved out without even asking.

Lindsay sat at the side and waved two fingers in front of Gillian’s eyes. “Hey, what are you thinking about? Has Olivia moved out of the house?”

Gillian nodded.

Lindsay’s eyes lit up and said excitedly, “That’s a good thing. Let’s quickly call the big shots in Capital City and invite them to the banquet.”

Speaking of this, Lindsay was excited. Those were big shots that had been on the news. They would not have seen them at all if not for this opportunity.

After the excitement, she felt smug again.

She thought, “Hmph, didn’t Olivia not want her to be her trusted aide? Then, she would get rid of Olivia and replace her with Gillian to take over the Smith family. She would still be the family head’s trusted aide.”

On the other hand, Olivia had lost the platform of the Smith family and could no longer strive higher in the future.

In the future, the difference between the two of them would be like the difference between heaven and earth. She could meet big shots like the country’s leaders, but Olivia could only jump around in the scientific world. The principal of Ember University was probably the highest–status person she could meet.

She wondered if Olivia would regret losing her.

The invitation list for the banquet had already been drawn up. It invited business and political figures from all over the country and the elites of the cultural and scientific world, Gillian wanted to take this opportunity to make the Smith family appear in front of everyone again.

She wanted to let the world see the glory of the Smith family.

She did not want to be like Isaac, hiding her identity so that everyone only knew that there was the Smith family, but they did not know where the head of the family was.

The invitations for the others had already been sent out. Only a few big shots were left. They needed Gillian to personally call to invite them.

Gillian decided to call the Book family first. After all, the Smith family was indebted to the Book family and had once cured Ryan’s leg.

The other big shots would also come as long as the Book family was willing to come.

Gillian’s left hand, which was holding the phone, was sweaty. She wiped it several times with a tissue before calling the Book family.

Because she had used Isaac’s phone to call, the other party’s first words when he picked up was, “Mr. Smith?”

Gillian gulped and steadied his voice. “Hello, I’m Gillian.”

The other party was stunned for a moment.

Gillian quickly explained, “I’m Gillian, the Smith family’s current head.”

“Oh, Miss Gillian.” The voice on the other end became gentle. “I’m Mr. Book’s secretary. Mr. Book is in a meeting and will end in about ten minutes. If you’re not in a hurry, you can wait for a moment.”

Gillian was very embarrassed. She rejected it and said, “No, no. Mr. Book is busy with national affairs. I’ll call him when he is free.”

“It’s alright.” The secretary’s attitude was very polite. “You’re special. Mr. Book said that if it’s a call from the Smith family, he will answer it immediately.”

Gillian was a little flattered by the secretary. She was secretly happy. Indeed, taking over the Smith family was different.

She would be treated seriously by a big shot like Mr. Book.

One had to know that the person who answered the phone was Mr.

Book’s secretary. Don’t underestimate a secretary. She had a lot of power.

For example, Sean Somer, the mayor’s secretary in the television drama “Snailing“, was praised by many big shots in the business world, let alone Mr. Book’s secretary. He was a few levels higher than Sean.

Now, Mr. Book’s secretary was supporting her!

Gillian had a gorgeous classmate in her dormitory when she was in university. Her dream was to be a waiter at the state banquet. A waiter at the state banquet was already something ordinary people could not reach. Gillian was valued by a big shot who could eat at the state banquet. The secretary kept chatting with her because she was worried that Gillian would be bored from waiting.

People like Mr. Book’s secretary were elite among thousands of

candidates. His words were comfortable and pleasant to hear. He had even unknowingly found out the news.

In just a few sentences, the secretary already knew the situation on the Smith family’s side.

The secretary’s voice was gentle. “Mr. Book is coming out soon. Miss Gillian, please wait for a moment. The call will be passed to him in a while.”

Gillian hurriedly nodded. “There’s no hurry. Mr. Book’s matter is more important.”

The secretary hung up the phone and bumped into Mr. Book, who came out of the meeting room. He leaned over and whispered, reporting the situation of the Smith family in a few words.

After hearing this, Mr. Book frowned with a regretful expression. “How did he turn into a vegetative state?”

The secretary said in a low voice, “From what Gillian said, it’s an acute myocardial infarction. After all, Mr. Smith is old. If he was not rescued in time, it’s easy to cause a serious illness.”

Mr. Book nodded and did not say anything. Instead, he picked up the phone and called.

Gillian was extremely excited when she received Mr. Book’s call. She kept licking her lips nervously. “Mr. Book, can you come over that day?”

Mr. Book smiled gently. “I’m going over. I can visit Mr. Smith and that girl Olivia.”

He actually mentioned Olivia!

Gillian’s expression froze and she did not speak for a long time.

Mr. Book was puzzled. “What’s wrong?”

Gillian smiled awkwardly. “I didn’t expect you to still remember Olivia, Mr. Book.” She sighed softly and pretended to be troubled. “I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you. Olivia quarreled with Grandpa because she didn’t study medicine. She hasn’t been home for a few years. She probably won’t appear at this banquet.”

“She won’t appear?” Mr. Book frowned and found it unbelievable. “Mr. Smith is sick. Isn’t she coming back too?”

Gillian braced herself and found an excuse. “She’s back, but she

happened to have something on the day of the banquet. She won’t be back until three days later.”

“Oh.” Mr. Book nodded. “I’ll go over when she comes back.”

Gillian was at a loss for words.
