Chapter 51
That night, when Olivia got home, she closed her bedroom door and rummaged through her cabinets.
She remembered that she owned several masks that she had bought a few years ago.
In order to prevent others from recognizing her at the convention, she had to make up a disguise.
Fortunately, the masks were still there.
Olivia heaved a sigh of relief and carefully removed all the dust from one mask.
This was specially made by her mentor and Olivia valued it.
After trying it on, she saw that the mask was an effective disguise.
She was elated that nobody would be able to recognize her.
Olivia prepared all the things she needed and placed it in a bag.
Just as she was about to lie down, she received a phone call.
"Hello?"
"It's me’ Olivia heard a charming voice.
She immediately sat up.
"Bruce?"
"Yes." He giggled.
"Are you surprised to hear my voice?"
"No, no.” Olivia yawned and asked.
"Is there anything I can do for you? It's very late."
"You promised to help me the last time we saw each other.Are you still willing to help?"
"Of course”
"I need your help tomorrow.Is that alright?" Bruce asked.
Olivia remembered that she offered to help Bruce last Friday, but she had forgotten because of Galen and Ashley's accident.
There were no classes the next day, but she still needed to attend the Treasure Reward Conference in the afternoon.
Thinking of this, Olivia asked.
"Around what time tomorrow? I still want to go visit Ashley at the hospital."
"We can go together.I'll pick you up in the morning."
"Alright" Olivia agreed.
The convention was being held in the afternoon, so she couldn't find another reason not to come with him.
The next morning, she saw a car parked at the entrance of their house.
Fortunately, Master Langston had left for work early in the morning and was no longer home.
Madam Enya also took Oscar to a painting class, so it was only Olivia at home.
Otherwise, her parents would definitely see Bruce's car parked outside.
If they saw it, Olivia would have a hard time explaining it.
Olivia got dressed and immediately got into the car.
She saw Bruce sitting calmly in the back seat.
He was looking at an iPad on his lap.
It seemed like he was in a video conference.
Olivia didn't want to disturb him.
She sat and waited quietly.
A few minutes later, Bruce finally turned the device off.
Olivia asked him.
"Are you busy today?"
"No, I'm not.”
He then offered Olivia a pre-packed breakfast.
Her eyes lit up.
As they were on the road, she ate like she had not been fed for years.
Afterwards, she wiped her mouth and expressed her delight over the delicious meal.
"This restaurant never disappoints!"
"If you get hungry, you can visit the restaurant anytime.They also deliver! You can just call them.’’
"Alright.”
As they arrived at the hospital, the nurses told them that Ashley still needed an IV drip.
Meanwhile, Galen got so much stronger.
His condition drastically improved overnight.
Galen wanted to roam around the hospital and check everything that was going on, so he did.
Bruce did not follow Olivia into the ward.
He said.
"I'm going to find Galen.Call me when you're finished.
"Alright.”
When Olivia entered the room, Ashley was pleasantly surprised.
"Olivia! I've been waiting for you!"
"How are you feeling?"
"Much better! I can go home once they remove this IV drip.I just have to finish this last bag"
"That's good,'' Olivia suddenly asked.
"By the way, where do you go to school? Tell me so I can pick you up next time.Let's hang out “ Ashley scratched her head.
She didn't want to lie.She stuttered.
"I haven't gone to school for days." Olivia suddenly got worried.
"You're not getting expelled, are you? Is it because of the kidnapping incident?"
She did not hide anything.She nodded her head in grievance.
"The student I saved has no conscience.She didn't even thank me.She had the guts to call me stupid.I exploded in anger, so I got expelled."
After saying that, she waved her hand, signalling Olivia to change the topic.
"Let's forget about her.By the way, how are the kidnappers?"
"They're in prison now.There's nothing to worry about.They will probably stay there for over ten years."
Olivia looked at her worriedly.
"Does your family know you got expelled?"
"I don't know.”
"Alright then.If you ask me, it's best if you just transfer to another school?’
"Alright"
Ashley subconsciously nodded.
Suddenly, she came back to her senses.
She looked at Olivia abruptly.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"It means that you get to decide now.You're free.She can no longer bully you."
Olivia curled her lips and tapped Ashley's head.
"Come to my school tomorrow.Don't worry about the admission process.I'll take care of it"
"Alright!"
Ashley didn't like to be pretentious.
She was frank, so she agreed straightforwardly.
She turned to look at Olivia and her eyes brightened.
After a while, Olivia bid her goodbye.
Just as she was leaving Ashley's ward, Bruce and Galen walked over.
"Are you alright?"
Bruce looked at Olivia and raised his eyebrows.
Olivia nodded.
Galen wanted to say something to Bruce, but he got preoccupied with Olivia.
Afterwards, they immediately left.
Galen couldn't help but sigh.
‘How could he be so cold?’ He thought.
It was just noon when they left the hospital, so Bruce decided to take Olivia to lunch.
He didn't choose Ten Miles Restaurant this time.
He took her to another restaurant famous for their Peking duck.
With all the herbs used, this dish was truly their best-seller.
Olivia especially liked spicy food.
Because they made it slightly spicy, she ate it with delight.
Strangely, every time Bruce took her out to eat, it was as if he knew what she preferred.
Olivia noticed this, but she just shrugged it off.
She only thought that their taste in food was similar. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
‘It is all a coincidence: She told herself.
After finishing their meal, Bruce settled the bill.
Seeing that he had no intention of telling her what he needed, Olivia couldn't help but ask.
"You said that you needed my help.What can I do for you?"
"You'll know when we get there"
Olivia was stunned and confused at the same time.
As they left, Olivia was surprised as Bruce had taken her precisely where the Treasure Reward Convention was being held.
During lunch, Olivia desperately tried to think of an excuse so she could leave and participate in the convention.
She didn't expect that Bruce would take her to the same exact place! Olivia couldn't help but rejoice.
