Chapter 432
Olivia spoke in an unhurried manner.
The room instantly fell into silence. Everyone, including Bettany, stared blankly
at her.
Her schemes proved to be unexpectedly extensive. Even before any events unfolded, she had already positioned a concealed
chess piece.
With such foresight and perception, she was truly remarkable.
Alexander’s complexion turned pallid, and his gloomy gaze remained fixed on
Olivia.
He had always known that she was intelligent and that her abilities were astonishing. However, he never expected her to be able
to plan ahead to such an
extent.
Her intelligence was simply beyond words.
“Olivia, you’re really something. When you put poison in the whistle, Bettany had yet to do anything, right? At that time, she was
just an innocent girl, yet you had already set a backup plan for such a harmless person. What about Daniel, eh?” Alexander’s
tone was cold as he looked straight at Olivia. “You’re quite cunning, aren’t you? Have you also made preparations in advance to
prevent him from betraying you in the future?”
Alexander was remarkable in his ability to get straight to the point with just a few words. It was evident that he attempted to
create a rift between Olivia and Daniel. Olivia frowned slightly. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat, and then a wave of worry
surged within her.
She subconsciously turned to Daniel, fearing that he might find her frightening. Daniel stood guard behind Olivia. As she glanced
back at him, he immediately broke into a broad grin.
His appearance was exquisitely charming. In moments of non–smiling, he emanated a hint of coldness, yet upon smiling, a glint
of innocence adorned his expression. His eyes shimmered like sunlight, and his overall demeanor exuded profound gentleness.
“Olivia, don’t be afraid. In this world, no one, nothing, and no words can stop me from loving you.”
Olivia’s eyes glistened with moisture. She cast her gaze downward, concealing the tears within.
Daniel went forward to hug her.
Initially, he exuded an air of arrogance and dominance, delivering an insufferably powerful aura in his eyes. However, next to
Olivia, he seemed like a mere shadow, so much so that when he remained silent and motionless, he would easily go

unnoticed by others.
However, as long as she needed him, he would undoubtedly stand in front of her, protecting her.
He held her by the waist and lowered his cold eyes. Meanwhile, he put on a smirk and said, “Mr. Alexander from the Grant
family, when did you become a gossipy woman? So, after failing to defeat Olivia, you resort to cunning tactics, huh? I detest your
deplorable methods.”
Alexander sneered and looked at Daniel mockingly. “Just like you. I also look down on cowards like you who hide behind women
and live off them!” He curled his lips, and the smile on his face became even more mocking. “Daniel, oh Daniel, your fiancée is
so powerful and so good at scheming. Aren’t you afraid? Even if you’re not afraid, can you really tolerate your wife being
stronger than you? Aren’t you afraid of being mocked by others for living behind a woman? Where is your ego?”
Daniel replied indifferently, “Only a weak and incompetent man would fear that his wife is stronger than him. The true strength of
a man is not in ability or ego but intolerance and magnanimity. Olivia is my wife, and I am willing to stand behind her, look after
her, protect her, and be her strongest support. I am proud of her strength. You see, Only weak, inept, arrogant, conceited, self–
righteous, jealous, vain, and pretentious villains like you would deliberately suppress the wife’s ability. People like you are not
worthy of a good wife like Olivia.” Daniel looked down on these men.
He never considered Olivia being stronger as a burden. After all, she radiated. power and brilliance like the sun, evoking a sense
of elation and yearning within him. In essence, there was no reason for him to be afraid.
On the contrary, Olivia’s strength served as both his motivation to catch up and his source of faith.
Daniel could not be bothered to explain to someone like Alexander. Therefore, he turned to Olivia and whispered, “Let’s go.”
Olivia nodded.
Just as they were about to leave, a sudden explosion ahead caught their attention. The explosion generated a massive gust of
air, sending all the items in the room hurtling upwards and barreling towards them.
It was a bad news!
It indicated that someone was going to blow up this place!
Daniel shielded Olivia, attempting to flee, but the explosion was so powerful that within moments, the house began to tremble
and appeared on the verge of collapse.
The stone door frame above the door crashed down. In a protective move to safeguard Olivia, Daniel leaped toward her and
shielded her.

Nonetheless, the stone was enormous. Despite his efforts to shield her, her stomach still collided with the ground.
“The baby...”
As she panicked, her face turned incredibly pale.
Captain Chavez reacted quickly, bringing people over to move the stone. Daniel, whose back was seriously injured, was carried
by a guard as he had already fainted.
Olivia’s situation was not any better as her stomach was throbbing. She forced herself to calm down as she looked at Captain
Chavez. “What happened?” Captain Chavez replied seriously, “Someone dropped a bomb. It seems to be someone from the
Dale family. There’s also an ambush outside.”
Olivia pondered for a moment and immediately said, “We’re too big a target, so we have to go separately. This auction hall is
made of special materials and can last for a while. Take Daniel and Elena, eh? Blend into the crowd and hide inside. Take
advantage of the chaos to run.”
Captain Chavez frowned. “What about you?”
Olivia frowned. “I’m the target. They’ll definitely keep an eye on me, so I can’t go with you.”
Captain Chavez refused immediately. “No. Your safety is very important to us.”
Elena cried out loud and shook her head violently. “Miss Taylor, I’m not leaving. I want to stay with you.”
Olivia’s tone became stern. “This is an order. I have the final say here. If I tell you to leave, you have to leave.”
Captain Chavez remained silent.
Olivia sighed, then said, “It’s not that I don’t care about my own safety. It’s just that we’re too big of a target together. I’ll disguise
myself and hide. Don’t worry, I’ll be
safe. Besides, only by hurrying out can you bring help back to rescue me. Do wish for everyone to die here?
very
you
Captain Chavez finally compromised and nodded. “Alright. I’ll bring them out first and come back to save you as soon as
possible. Miss Taylor, you must stay safe.
As he spoke, he led his men and rushed out.
The auction hall was crowded with a multitude of people, resembling a scene of utter chaos, as everyone covered their heads
and hurried to escape.
Olivia changed out of her clothes and used a knife to cut her long hair. She also used the things she had on hand to change her
appearance. Then, she hid in a corner and waited for help.
After confirming that she was safe for the time being, she heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she realized that she seemed to have
forgotten something.
She wondered, Where was the Golden Voodoo King?”
She wanted to get up and search, but she suddenly felt a sharp pain on her right cheek, and it felt as if something had burrowed
into her skin.
Through the window at the side, she saw clearly that the Golden Voodoo King had entered her face.
It hurts her immensely!
With the sharp pain, she lost consciousness.
