Chapter 99
Of course, Isabella 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 become a different person. He was harsh
and merciless. No one, not even Isabella, could persuade him otherwise.
For various reasons, Isabella 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 relationship had recovered in the previous five years.
However, the sudden change in Daniel’s temperament just now stunned Isabella completely. 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
impeccable taste. This girl was outstanding. Even Isabella, 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, Isabella would definitely like this daughter–
in–law very much.
But now, the situation was different.
Yvonne was a golden goose. Not to mention her family background, her relationship with that doctor
was a huge resource.
Anything that was scarce was precious.
That renowned doctor was indeed a scarce resource.

bella 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, “Isabella, she’s my sister.”
Sister? Isabella was stunned.
Yvonne smiled and explained, “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.” Isabella’s frown intensified. Disdain flashed over her eyes as
she heard this.
A middle–aged woman sitting around exclaimed, “Does that mean that she grew up in a poor
family?” Then, she faked a pitiful expression. “What a pity. She’s a rich young lady 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 Isabella’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 it comfortingly.
They made eye contact. Daniel understood what she meant. He leaned against the sofa and said
nothing because it was Olivia’s showtime. Isabella’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 was completely unacceptable. 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, Isabella became even more unsatisfied.

sent was smart. They flattered Mrs. Sullivan and Yvonne ng Olivia’s dignity.
The first one to speak was Daniel’s aunt, Lilian. She glanced 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 out laughing, asking, “Are you

cosplaying? Pretending to be a European princess? Did you get this hairpin from Amazon? How
much does it cost? Twenty bucks for three pieces? And it comes with free shipping?”
She laughed 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
collapsing. How embarrassing.”
The young lady beside Lilian followed her gaze and looked over. She did not pay attention to that
poor hairpin on Olivia’s head.
This young lady was Lilian’s daughter. Her name was Harper Sullivan, only 19 years old. She was
fond of traditional costumes and joined some communities with other hobby friends. She knew a
lot about classic clothes and head accessories.
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 dollars. 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

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 her laughter. For some reason, they did
ot know what she was laughing 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 become 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 dollars.”
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 dollars!
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 dollars. 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.
