Chapter 94
Olivia stood up and prepared to leave.
As soon as she turned around, a helper walked over holding a tea tray.
Her footsteps halted.
It was a high-grade white tea with a particularly mellow flavor, but it was obviously tampered with.
Olivia turned around and saw that the teacup was placed in front of Bruce.
He didn't seem to notice anything amiss and picked it up to drink from it, Without much of a thought, Olivia rushed forward and slapped the cup away from him, ‘It's poisonous!’ ‘You shouldn't drink it! Olivia didn't think too much before what she did, and only reacted the moment the cup clattered on the ground.
‘This is bad? ‘This is the Tuckers: Her actions were tantamount to fighting against the leader of the family.
As expected, David was instantly enraged after being stunned by her sudden action.

In his world, no one had ever dared to act so rudely.
She was simply provoking him -- extremely arrogant and shameless.
Olivia was about to speak when she heard a chuckle.
"Did I say anything?"
Bruce slowly wiped off the water stains on his sleeves and spoke faintly, "I don't mind at all.So why would you?"
David instantly choked.
Olivia felt even more stunned.
This was the first tshe had seen Bruce say such an offensive thing in such a graceful manner.
Especially to his father.
David had married three women, and he had a lot of children.
Only Bruce, who was mature enough, possessed astonishing talent and intelligence that seemed close to that of a devil since he was young.
His methods were ruthless, and he managed to kick all of his brothers and sisters out.
He wiped the clan clean of greedy and rapacious people; ultimately setting himself down as the future heir of the family.
In terms of means, courage, and shrewdness - this man would be the immediate embodiment.
Even so, Olivia didn't expect that he would speak up for her.
David was enraged.
He wanted to know why this woman suddenly acted so unabashedly.

As a guest, it was impolite of her to do that.
Not to mention that she only chere because she was hired.
Olivia was about to speak, but she felt something cfrom her palm.
She looked down, which made Bruce withdraw his hand covertly.
Olivia immediately changed her tone, "Sorry, I was just out of it...I'm really sorry”
It was obviously a flawed answer.It was alright to lie to a child, but to lie to an old man like David, was truly a mistake.
"Then you..."
David still wanted to ask further, but Bruce got up and pulled Olivia out of the mansion impatiently.
Until the moment they got on the carriage, they were quiet.
Olivia was the first to speak, breaking the silence.
"Did you know that there was something wrong with that tea?" The man smiled and turned to her.
"Then how did you know?"
