She wondered. Does Andrew actually want to have lunch with me?
Olivia gripped her fork, and a smile slowly expanded upon her lips. Ultimately, a sense of happiness
radiated through her entire being.
“Andrew!” Olivia was so ted that she rose from her seat and called out to him.
Andrew nodded instinctively and approached Olivia.
Nancy Banks seized the moment, and with an agility that belied her age, she swiftly positioned herself
between Andrew and
Olivia.
“Your Highness,” Nancy Banks whispered a reminder, “Miss Smith is still a person of interest. Do not
disregard the queen’s directives”

Andrew’s gaze turned chilly as he cast an unhappy look at Nancy Banks. His presence exuded a
powerful air, as if he felt misconstrued. “Nancy Banks, what do you take me for? I am fully aware of my
actions.”
If you knew, why did youe to see Olivia? Nancy Banks thought.
Nancy Banks was tempted to voice herints if it weren’t for Olivia’s position.
Andrew was enveloped in the destion of the autumn breeze, his countenance impassive. He paid no
heed to Olivia and refrained from taking a seat in front of her, choosing instead to maintain a distance.
He remained cold and distant, treating Olivia as though she were merely a stranger who had joined for
a meal.
Observing this, Olivia lowered her gaze and couldn’t help but feel a tinge of loneliness.
She retreated to her original position, opting not to approach further.
Andrew seated himself across from her and proceeded to eat at a leisurely pace. His posture exuded
elegance, even though his dining speed was notably unhurried.
Ever so slowly, almost painstakingly
The lunch extended for nearly an hour.
By the end, Nancy Banks’s legs were weary from standing for so long
Andrewid down his fork and uttered, I’ve finished my meal.”
Olivia remained seated across from him, her gaze fixed on him with anticipation. She yearned to
approach him but hesitated, fearing that Andrew might harbor resentment.
To align with her gentle and meek demeanor, she refrained from acting too hastily.
She believed that as long as she endured this interim period and awaited the release of the online
project, Andrew would ascertain her innocence, and all would be well.
Andrew rose from his seat and made his way to the door. As he reached the threshold, he abruptly
pivoted and cast a fleeting nce at Olivia.
‘Oh my god!‘
He wondered why this girl didn’t embrace him! Had she not noticed how deliberately I was walking?”
Due to Nancy Banks‘ presence, Andrew feltpelled to maintain a certain distance to establish his
stance. Therefore, he refrained from approaching Olivia proactively. However, his yearning for her was
so profound that it caused his heart to ache.
Andrew conveyed a silent message to Olivia with his gaze. “Come on! Give me a lug!‘
Olivia furrowed her brow slightly and mused. ‘Is Andrew’s eyes bothering him? I must remind Yossi to
administer some eye drops.
Andrew winked repeatedly, but Olivia remained unresponsive
Nancy Banks shot him a disapproving re from the side. Ultimately. Andrew had no choice but to
depart in disappointment.
The moment he crossed the threshold, Andrew appeared to dete, his body devoid of strength.
He returned to the study, ovee with misery, and sank into a chair in mncholic contemtion.
Even though Yossi was not particrly astute, he could discern certain things.
He inquired softly, “Your Highness, you have strong feelings for Miss Olivia, don’t you?”
Andrew cast a nce at him but chose not to refute it.
Yossi was perplexed. “But Miss Olivia is still considered a suspect, isn’t she? Shouldn’t Your Highness
conduct a thorough __investigation!”
“There’s no necessity.” Andrew’s tone wasposed, yet it conveyed a definitive and unwavering
authority. “Once the project goes online, any suspicion will naturally be dispelled.”
From the outset to the culmination, Andrew had never contemted investigating Olivia.
Having her by his side was primarily a measure to safeguard her. As long as she remained uninvolved
in the cyberproject’s assault, her association with Lady Verna or any ulterior motives behind her
approach to him held little significance.
He thought. ‘She could only belong to me! Given that she had provoked me, any hopes of evading
consequences were futile!
During this period, Andrew refrained from engaging with Olivia as he aimed to demonstrate to the
queen that he was acting with rationality.
In truth, he could have opted not to do so as well.
Yet, for some inexplicable reason, a voice in his mindpelled him to adhere to the queen’s desires.
Whenever he contemted defying her, he would be afflicted by excruciating headaches.
Andrew remained perplexed by this enigma. ‘Could it be that I revered and cherished my mother to
such an extent that my subconscious mind couldn’t defy her wishes?
