After Flash Marriage, I Found That My Husband Is A Billionaire

chapter 67 There is a treasure in the family

.Once she returned to her house, Olivia packed her belongings while gathering information about the Qin Family of Jing Cheng.

That was when she found out that Steven became friends with Sebastian after the accident.

Coincidently, Sebastian was the older man that Olivia saved on that fateful day.

Olivia touched her chin, laughing when she recalled the situation on that day.

Everyone knew that the person who saved Sebastian was a woman, but Steven had now become known as his life savior. Olivia wondered why that was.

She mused, "I think he used our relationship as a front?"

"This is getting pretty interesting. It's incredible how shameless Steven can be!"

That would explain why the Qin family extended help to the Lu Family and the Xia Family.

Olivia had no intention of actually destroying the Xia Family, though.

Her only goal was to take back her shares and revive Xia Construction, and that was it.

Now that someone was willing to help Tyrone, Olivia found no reason to go against the flow and put the Xia Family in their place.

"All right. We shall let Tyrone do whatever he likes and see whether he can make something of himself."

No matter how long it took, Olivia was determined to seize control of Xia Construction.

Besides, Sofia's health had not fully recovered yet, so Olivia was in no hurry to put her plan into motion.

Olivia packed a few sets of clothes and put them in her backpack. Then, she packed various miscellaneous items into another luggage.

After all the fussing, she went to the kitchen to fiddle around. It wasn't until seven-thirty o'clock in the evening that a massive explosion came from the kitchen, and Olivia came out holding a small bottle. Although sweaty and dirty, there was a satisfied smile on Olivia's face.

Xavier heard the sound from downstairs and immediately rushed upward. He opened the door to see the smoky kitchen as he sprinted forward.

Not only did he not spot Olivia, he also coughed from being choked by the smoke.

"What are you doing there?" Olivia heard the noise and turned to look at the kitchen.

"I'm glad… glad you're fine." Xavier coughed and exited the scene. He was able to breathe properly again after a while, looking at Olivia. "What are you…"

"Oh, I know my time in Jing Cheng won't be safe and peaceful, so I made something to protect and defend myself if necessary."

After saying that, Olivia rubbed her nose. "I don't have any suitable pill-refining tools at home, so..."

Xavier couldn't determine whether he wanted to laugh or cry.

"Did she used the rice cooker to refine her pills?" he mused.

Alchemists were tricky to come by. Even if many tried to use advanced equipment to create drugs, the success rate for making high-end pills was rare.

Xavier looked at Olivia enquiringly. "How many pills did you make?"

"I did it twice, so a dozen plus." Olivia scratched her head. "The equipment is not good enough, but I tried my best to utilize them."

After saying that, she yawned. "It's getting late. I'm going get washed up. You should pack your things quickly and we shall be on the way."

Xavier froze in his place, only reacting to Olivia's words about a minute later.

He thought, "She made a dozen plus of medicinal pills with the rice cooker and she still thinks there's too little of them?"

At this moment, Xavier was confident that he had found the woman of his dreams.

However, he turned to look at the messy kitchen and sighed.

"Yeap. Having her is enough. Meanwhile, I should be her slave and clean up after her."

Kayden Qin was the driver at the accident scene that day.

He immediately knew Steven was taking credit for something he didn't do when he heard the stories from Sebastian and Steven.

However, since he had no evidence, Kayden did not outright expose Steven's lies. Instead, he asked him a few questions.

As for Steven, he panicked when he saw Kayden.

Because at that time, Kayden was conscious and witnessed Olivia rescuing the men. Besides, Kayden was also present when Steven stood aside, scolding Olivia at the accident site.

So, Steven thought he was finished.

Once Kayden told Sebastian that Steven was a liar, not only would the Lu Family lose everything that the Qin Family promised to give them, but they would also be regarded as enemies by the Qin Family.

The consequences were not something Steven could bear.

As a result, Steven nearly cried out in fear.

However, after directing a few questions at Steven, Kayden stopped speaking while Steven stood in the ward, feeling restless and anxious. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

He was afraid that Kayden would put an end to his lies, and on the other hand, he was also terrified that Kayden would not expose him now but instead wait for a more crucial moment to give him the final devastating blow.

Apprehensiveness filled Steven.

However, Kayden didn't mention anything about that fateful day again.

It seemed that he had already consented that Steven's story was genuine and accepted the fact that Steven was Sebastian's savior.

That was when Steven began to talk about Olivia again.

"Mr. Kayden, thank you for cooperating with my girlfriend that day. It's because of that Old Mr. Qin and Young Master Qin was saved. I'm impressed by you, Mr. Kayden. You were hurt so grieviously. Yet, you still rescue both of them regardless of your safety!"

Kayden glanced at Steven. "Do you really think so?"

"Of course!" Steven nodded thoughtfully, trying to butter up and please Kayden so the latter would not suspect or be hostile to him.

"The situation was urgent at that time. My girlfriend and I worked together immediately to save people. But you didn't care about your own safety at all. You only wanted to save Old Mr. Qin and Young Master Qin. I witnessed everything that went down. You put your life at risk to ensure they are safe."

"Old Mr. Qin, Mr. Kayden is not good with words and didn't claim credit but he is actually the person who rendered outstanding help this time."

After Steven finished speaking, Sebastian took a deep breath and nodded with satisfaction. "Kay, you did well! How are your wounds healing?"

Kayden gave Steven a penetrative gaze. After a while, he looked away and shook his head expressionlessly. "I'm fine."

He added, "We have to thank the woman for her pills. If not, I'm afraid at least two of us would be trapped on the spot."

"Oh? Is that the case?" Sebastian's confused eyes shifted from Kayden to Steven.

Steven was flustered by Kayden's comment, thinking, "Oh no. He's going to give the game away."

The man smiled. "Ah, yes. Here's the thing. Old Mr. Qin, my girlfriend knows basic nursing knowledge, and also has the habit of bringing medicine with her whenever she goes out. It was a coincidence that she brought along medicinal pills suitable for both of your conditions on that day."

"I'm very glad that she has such a good habit, which came in handy at critical moments," Steven said. Fearing that Kayden would dwell on this topic further, which Steven did not have a good answer to, he changed the subject hurriedly.

He recounted the story about how critical Old Mr. Qin's condition was at that time and how terrible the accident was while also scolding the perpetrator for his disregard for human life.

Hearing the mention of the perpetrator, Sebastian narrowed his eyes and snorted. "It won't be long until I get my revenge. I won't let those people roam around and be smug about what they did for long!"

He raised his chin slightly and looked at Kayden. "Any updates about the investigation?"

Kayden glanced at Steven, reporting coldly, "There is news indicating that Xavier Si had no chance of meeting Zoey Xue, for she escaped again. However, there are insider's information saying that he has gotten in contact with Zoey, and the two of them are heading to Jing Cheng soon."

"Oh?" Sebastian stroked the beard on his chin. "In this case, we shall return to Jing Cheng too. I'm sure it will be fun to watch this drama play out."
