Chapter 99
Of course, Isabe didn’t like Olivia. She said these nice words because she was frightened by Daniel.
Ever since Daniel returned with the child five years ago, he be a different person. He was harsh
and merciless. No one, not even Isabe, could persuade him otherwise.
For various reasons, Isabe felt guilty. She did not dare to interfere in Daniel’s matter and mostly
followed his wishes.
After all, they were mother and son. Although there had been some alienation between, them, it had
progressively healed over time. Their rtionship had recovered in the previous five years.
However, the sudden change in Daniel’s temperament just now stunned Isabepletely. It was as
if she was looking at the arrogant and cold Daniel who had just returned five years ago. Hence, she
was terrified. She looked Olivia up and down. She had to admit that her son, Daniel, had an
impable taste. This girl was outstanding. Even Isabe, who had seen numerous beauties, was
praising her for her attractive look from the bottom of her heart.
Not only was she beautiful, but her demeanor was second to none. She was elegant and noble and
conducted with gentleness and solemnity. Without Yvonne, Isabe would definitely like this daughter–
inw very much.
But now, the situation was different.
Yvonne was a golden goose. Not to mention her family background, her rtionship with that doctor
was a huge resource.
Anything that was scarce was precious.
That renowned doctor was indeed a scarce resource.

be started to look at Olivia with a critical gaze and her tone tur old. “Could you tell me something
about your family?”
Before Olivia could open her mouth, Yvonne intercepted, “Isabe, she’s my sister.”
Sister? Isabe was stunned.
Yvonne smiled and exined, “Mrs. Sullivan, you might not know this. Olivia is the daughter the Taylor
family have lost for 18 years.” At this

point, her tone was a little mocking. “She grew up in a small family. I heard that a very old man adopted
her, just an unknown doctor.” Isabe’s frown intensified. Disdain shed over her eyes as she heard
this.
A middle–aged woman sitting around eximed, “Does that mean that she grew up in a poor family?”
Then, she faked a pitiful expression. “What a pity. She’s a rich youngdy but ended up in a shanty.
Without the guidance of a great teacher, her knowledge and talent are probably far inferior”
The woman who spoke was Isabe’s niece. Ostensibly, she looked pitiful, but in reality, she was
mocking her.
Daniel’s eyes darkened into a maelstrom of rage.
Just as he was about to speak, he felt a warmth in his hand. It was Olivia who covered his hand and
patted itfortingly.
They made eye contact. Daniel understood what she meant. He leaned against the sofa and said
nothing because it was Olivia’s showtime. Isabe’s face clouded even more as she heard her niece’s
statements. Olivia had a decent background. She was descended from the Taylor family, but what she
had experienced waspletely uneptable. Growing up in a poor and humble family, she must be
undereducated. Girls from rich families had been traveling throughout the world since they were young.
They were extremely knowledgeable and
well–informed. They had also been to the tropical rainforest, seen the pyramids, climbed the snow
mountains… These experiences and broad–mindedness were not something that a daughter of a poor
family could have.
As for Olivia, she had probably never even left the country.
Thinking of this, Isabe became even more unsatisfied.

sent was smart. They ttered Mrs. Sullivan and Yvonne ng Olivia’s dignity.
The first one to speak was Daniel’s aunt, Lilian. She nced at Olivia from head to toe and then
frowned. She said in a sharp and unkind tone, “Olivia, what are you wearing? Don’t you have any
branded clothing? And the pearl hair clip on your head. Eh, no, this thing is simply a normal hairpin. Am
I right?”
At this point, she stopped talking but burst outughing, asking, “Are you
Mastung Daudink
cosying? Pretending to be a European princess? Did you get this hairpin from Amazon? How much
does it cost? Twenty bucks for three pieces? And ites with free shipping?”
Sheughed mockingly and turned her gaze to Daniel. “Daniel, Olivia is going to be your wife after all.
Don’t be stingy. Even if you are not willing to give her Haute Couture or high–end jewelry, you still have
to spend. If you let her dress so terribly, people will assume that the Sullivan family is copsing. How
embarrassing.”
The youngdy beside Lilian followed her gaze and looked over. She did not pay attention to that poor
hairpin on Olivia’s head.
This youngdy was Lilian’s daughter. Her name was Harper Sullivan, only 19 years old. She was fond
of traditional costumes and joined somemunities with other hobby friends. She knew a lot about
ssic clothes and head essories.
Seeing that Olivia was wearing a hairpin, she observed her a few times. and realized that the hairstyle
was exquisite, but it was a little old–fashioned. It was obvious that it was out of date.
She grimaced, her eyes mocking. “A good hairpin only costs about a hundred dors. It can’t be too
expensive. You’re too frugal to put on an old one.”
It was really embarrassing. After all, Olivia was typical of a girl raised in a humble family. People like
her were never liberal with cash.
If her cousin really married this woman, the Sullivan family would be disgraced. Harper felt disgusted at
the thought of living with such a pathetic woman.
Although Yvonne was delighted to see Olivia being mocked, in the eyes of others, she and Olivia were
both from the Taylor family. They were still sisters. It was not appropriate to see her sister get
humiliated. Or the Sullivan family may think that she was unkind and cruel.
So she said hypocritically, “Olivia, are you having some problems? I still xtra money here. Not too
much, just millions. Take it and if at’s enough.” As she spoke, she took out a bank card and handed it
over.
have so you th
She acted like he was rewarding him.
Olivia’s gaze fell on that card, and she remained silent for a long time.
After a while, she suddenly chuckled.
Everyone was dumbfounded by herughter. For some reason, they did
ot know what she wasughing at.
Olivia raised her hand and pulled out the hairpin from her bun. She shook it twice.
These idiots must be kidding. This golden hairpin was worn by Princess Consort Elewys of the lleniel
Empire. But now it had actually be a cheap item on Amazon. That’s ridiculous!
Ignoring everyone’s surprised gazes, she fiddled with the warm pearls on the hairpin and said
indifferently, “You’re right. This hairpin is indeed not expensive. It’s just a pearl–gold hairpin worn by
Princess Consort Elewys of the lleniel Empire. It’s only worth one to two million dors.”
After saying that, she slowly put the hairpin back on, as if she had just said something casually and
completely ignored the dead silence in the
room.
The lleniel Empire!
Princess Consort Elewys!

One to two million dors!
Everyone was shocked by these words and did not say anything for a long time. Harper Sullivan
reacted quickly and immediately took out her phone to search. Soon, she found the information on
Wikipedia.
“Oh my god, it’s actually true. It’s exactly the same as the picture. Seven years ago, this hairpin was
auctioned in Sotheby’s London. It sold for 1.65 million dors. A Duke in Gorshire was the winner. A
reporter interviewed him, and the Duke said that a respectable old man saved his life, so he bought this
hairpin as a gift to give it to the old man’s granddaughter.
As soon as she finished speaking, the room was so quiet that one could hear any sound. It was as
quiet as a graveyard.
