Billionaire’s Missing Darling by Theresa Wilde - Season 4 Episode 7

After Olivia left, the First Elder gathered everyone so he could say something. Greg had just returned

from outside. As soon as he reached the entrance, he heard the word graphene.

The Capitol Research Institute now has a technology that can more conveniently and cheaply produce

a large amount of graphene. The First Elder’s voice was a little excited. He needed to hold the cup

tightly to calm his emotions. “Graphene applications have a wide range of prospects. It has important

application. prospects in optics, electricity, materials science, micro–nano processing, energy,

biomedicine, and drug transmission.

“If we have this technology in our hands, we can limit the supply of graphene from the source. If any of

the subsequent industries want graphene, they have to buy it from us. This is equivalent to owning oil.

It’s a profitable business.” Jonny and Larson had backgrounds in consortiums, so they were very

sensitive to this. Hence, from the moment they heard what the First Elder said, they realized the value

of the technology.

They could not help but feel excited.

Greg was still calm. He asked, “Why didn’t I hear anything?” Every scientific research would have a

thesis published, but there was no news about the technology to produce graphene.

Robert Watson, the head of the Watson family, was the vice dean of the Capitol Research Institute. He

knew more about this

matter and explained. “This technology has always been carried out in secret. Because it involves

competition. between countries and strategic planning, it has never been announced to the public. The

research institute wants to choose powerful companies in the country and give them exclusive

authorization.”

“Exclusive authorization?” Jonny’s heart tightened. He stubbed out the cigarette in his hand, and the barely–restrained storm in his eyes surged. “Is the information. accurate?”

Upon hearing this, Robert glanced at Jonny and said coldly, “Are you questioning

me?”

“I wouldn’t dare. Of course not,” Jonny smiled. He looked like he was apologizing, but he did not hold

back the aggressiveness in his words. “Although you are the vice dean of the research institute, there

are four vice deans in the research. institute. I may trust you, but you’re not in charge after all. This is a

matter of great importance. It’s normal for me to be a little worried.”

Robert looked at Jonny with a displeased expression.

Upon seeing this, the First Elder frowned and said unhappily, “Don’t go off–topic.” He looked at Robert.

“Is the dean still not showing up?”

Speaking of the dean of the Capitol Research Institute, Robert’s expression turned serious and his tone

was a little wary. “He didn’t show up. I wonder where Mr. Switt found such a powerful person. The dean

is simply amazing. His methods. and intelligence are top notch. When he first took over the research

institute, everyone was still unconvinced, but in just a few years, he expanded the research institute’s

power by more than ten times,

“The current Capitol Research Institute has already become a place where the dean has the only say.

The dean’s prestige is extremely high, and no one dares to question him.”

Even Robert, who had always been thinking about becoming the dean himself, admires the dean and

admitted that he was inferior to him.

However, the strange thing was that the dean rarely appeared. Other than the chiet secretary, no one

knew who the dean was.

Robert had made use of his identity as the vice dean to investigate the matter for a long time, but he

was still unable to find any news regarding the dean.

The First Elder frowned and reminded Robert, “You have to put in more effort. You have to rope in the

dean. Next year will be the year of the change. The

research institute is very important to the Grant family.”

Zelen had been standing quietly behind the First Elder like a shadow.

When the First Elder was discussing matters with others, she rarely spoke. But now, she suddenly

thought of an important piece of news.

“Mr. Watson.” Zelen pinched her fingers. “The Mr. Swift you mentioned just now, are you referring to Mr.

Swift in West Hill Sanatorium in Layfield?”

Robert was stunned for a moment before nodding. “Yes.”

He explained, “Mr. Swift was the president two terms ago. After he stepped down, he took over the

Capitol Research Institute. It was not until he found a suitable heir a few years ago that he stopped

interfering in the research institute’s matters.” After saying that, Robert looked at Zelen curiously and

asked, “Why? Do you know Mr. Swift?”

Zelen shook her head and said in a deep voice, “I don’t know him, but I know Olivia does.

“What?”

Zelen’s words were akin to a sudden clap of thunder.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Even the First Elder was stunned for a moment before asking, “Why didn’t you mention this in your trial

report?”

Zelen’s tone was aggrieved. “I didn’t think this was very important. At that time, I had been staying with

the Smith family. As to what Olivia had done or whom she had met, I only heard from others. I didn’t

know much. Moreover, Olivia was

especially smart at that time. There were countless big shots who liked her, so I didn’t take it seriously.”

Zelen felt really wronged. She would have included it in the trial report if it was something important. It

was impossible for her to record everything that happened to Olivia.

“Do many big shots like her?” Robert was curious.

Zelen nodded. “It’s not that they like her. It’s all because of Isaac. Isaac saved those people, so they

paid more attention to Isaac’s three grandchildren. Moreover, Olivia is the smartest among them. Thus,

in comparison, there are more people. who like her.”

“I see.” The First Elder understood. “So, Olivia knows Mr. Swift because of Isaac?”

Zelen nodded. “Yes, Isaac has a lot of connections.”

Hearing this, the First Elder frowned again, a little unhappy.

All these years, he had always looked down on the Smith family. He had never thought that the Smith

family could help the Grant family. However, this did not mean that Isaac could ignore the Grant family.

Since Isaac had so many connections, why did he not give them to the Grant family?

At this moment, Jonny said, “Since the Smith family is familiar with Mr. Swift and knows many big

shots, it won’t do for it to fall into Olivia’s hands. We have to choose a suitable person to take over the

Smith family.”

The First Elder muttered, “Let me think about it.”

He had to choose this candidate carefully.

Seeing that the First Elder was worried about the Smith family, Zelen’s dissatisfaction with Olivia went

up another level. She muttered, “This Olivia really doesn’t know how to be grateful. If it weren’t for the

Grant family, she wouldn’t be chosen for the trial. How else would she know Mr. Swift and so many big

shots? All of this is thanks to the Grant family. She doesn’t have any gratitude at all. She even has to

trouble the First Elder to worry about the Smith family.”

The more Zelen thought about it, the more furious she became. She said. hatefully, “We must teach

Olivia a lesson! Take back everything she got from the Grant family and make her lose everything. Let’s

see how arrogant she can be!” Although Zelen’s plan was crude, they hit the nail on the head.

If Olivia were obedient, it would save them a lot of trouble.

However, it did not matter if she was disobedient. They would browbeat her into submission! They

would take back everything she had obtained from the Smith family, including her medical skills,

wealth, connections, and even Angus’s favor!
