Chapter 1134
Linus could feel Olivia's body turning stiff. He hastily took his hand away, saying, "Sorry, I just noticed
that there were too many people gathering around you."
Taking a step backward, Olivia put some distance between them. "It's okay, I understand. You should
go and greet the guests, Mr. Linus. You don't have to worry about me."
"Be careful, then. You can talk to me if anything comes up." Linus gave her a meaningful gaze before
leaving.
Lifting his hand, he rubbed his fingers as he recalled the sensation of her skin. Did all women have
such smooth skin?
An odd feeling rose in his heart. He felt like there was a fire in his heart.
The guests all took their seats. About 30 guests had turned up today, and everyone was conversing in
hushed tones. They were all quite courteous.
Some of them greeted Mason before taking their seats.

and gracious around outsiders.
If it weren't for what happened with the butler, Olivia wouldn’t have discovered Tatiana’s true colors.
Linus waved at Olivia, gesturing for her to sit at his table. “ Vanessa, come and sit here."
Olivia was about to take a seat at the side, but she was forced to go over.
Everyone instantly looked at Olivia. All the guests had prominent identities, so Olivia felt very
pressured.
"Mr. Heath, this is the miraculous doctor, Vanessa, right?"
Smiling, Mason said, "Yes. She may look young, but her medical skills have gained the approval of
even Mr. Moran and Mr. Crosby Senior."
"I've only ever seen her name in articles, but I didn't expect to finally see her in person today."
"She has achieved so much even at her young age. That's quite remarkable."
Olivia said, "Everyone, you're too kind. I was just lucky."
"What a rare sight! Vanessa isn't just skilled in medicine, but she's so humble and keeps such a low
profile as well."
Everyone only knew that she had saved Mason, but they didn't know about Mr. Gatsby. Even so, that
was enough reason for them to admire her.
Krystal gritted her teeth in hatred. She was Mason's biological daughter, but everyone was flattering
Olivia instead!
Tatiana patted Krystal's hand, warning the latter against causing a ruckus during the event. They had a
more important mission to carry out today.
Tatiana was sitting on Mason's right whereas Linus was sitting to the left of him. Olivia ended up sitting
next to Linus.
Even though Linus didn't mean anything by his actions just now, Olivia felt a little awkward. She
subconsciously moved away from him.

A dark figure appeared. Then, Ethan boldly took his seat.
Why was he here too?
In an instant, Olivia was flanked by Linus and Ethan on each side. She had a feeling that Ethan must
have caught sight of Linus putting his hand on her shoulder just now. Ethan wouldn't just leave it like
that!
Krystal stared at Ethan in disappointment. She had told him to sit with her, but Ethan walked straight up
to that wench instead.
Everyone knew that Krystal had been trying to court Ethan for years. So, they dared not take their
seats recklessly.
When Yale saw Ethan sitting down, he asked quietly," Krystal, can I sit next to you?"
"Whatever." Krystal's voice was cold.
Of course, Yale was offended by how differently Krystal treated him compared to Ethan. But for the
sake of his goals, he could only force a smile and endure it.
Linus asked first, "Vanessa, do you like sweet or savory foods more?"
Before Olivia could reply, Ethan spoke up. "She likes spicy food. The spicier the better."
Linus looked at Ethan. "Ethan, you seem to know Vanessa quite well."
