Chapter 613
Madam Burgess was just a middle-aged woman in charge of cooking. She had no idea about the viral news on the inteat
all.
Olivia only knew that Kelvin was arrested despite being innocent. She didn’t know how bad things had becin real life.
When someone called out to her, she even looked at the crowd in slight confusion. Neither Olivia nor Madam Burgess knew what was going on.
Everyone instantly turned around to look at them. It was only then that Olivia saw the mixed group of men and women.
Swere holding a banner while others were holding buckets. The buckets were in various colors, so they probably contained something like paint.
When they saw Olivia, they swarmed toward her like zombies.
The bodyguards hastily stepped in front of Olivia and Madam Burgess.
Madam Burgess said anxiously, “Mrs. Miller, let’s leave right now.”

An extremely angry voice sounded behind her. When Olivia turned to look, she saw someone splashing something at her.
“Watch out, Mrs. Miller!” Madam Burgess stood in front of Olivia right away, protecting her.
Olivia reacted quickly. She pushed Madam Burgess away with one hand. Then, she grabbed the bag with another hand to block sof the liquid that had splashed out.
Madam Burgess was shoved onto the floor. Before she could cry out in pain, she heard Olivia screaming in agony.
Olivia did her best to block the attack, but she couldn’t avoid getting a few drops of the liquid on the back of her hand.
She felt an intense burning sensation spreading from the back of her hand.
“It’s sulfuric acid!”
“Oh my goodness! Are you okay, Mrs. Miller?”
Madam Burgess was shocked out of her mind. The person who splashed the acid hadn’t left when someone suddenly sprung up from the side.
The man had a dagger in his hand as he lunged toward Olivia.
The bodyguards were fending off the other people making a fuss. Those people looked like they had already planned to distract the bodyguards beforehand.
The sharp blade was about to pierce Olivia’s heart. The man moved as fast as lightning.
This wasn’t an ordinary person. He had to be a trained assassin.
The thought had just occurred to Olivia’s mind when she saw the gleaming blade being brought down.
The passersby covered their mouths in terror. But then, Olivia’s limbs reacted faster than her brain.
She landed a kick squarely on the man’s wrist. The dagger produced an ear-piercing noise as it clattered against the floor tiles.
The man was stunned as well. He probably didn’t expect Olivia to react so quickly.
She was only a wealthy lady. When faced with something like this, shouldn’t her first reaction be to scream?
While the man was still stunned, Olivia delivered another kick at the man’s calf. The sudden pain caused the man to get down on one knee.
Grabbing the chance, Olivia locked her legs around the man’s neck. With a forceful turn, she flipped him onto the floor.
By then, Olivia had already picked up the dagger and held it against the man’s neck.

Her sequence of actions looked very natural and skilled. It was as if she were in a movie. Madam Burgess was stunned at the sight.
With a face filled with murderous intent, Olivia asked in a cold voice, “Who sent you?”
She was startled at her own actions as well. She didn’t have any memories of doing things like this. But when she was faced with danger, all these seemed to be survival instincts etched into her bones.
Blood was already seeping out from the man’s neck where the blade was held against it. It roused a murderous instinct.
“Are you alright, Mrs. Miller?”
“I’m fine. There’s something off about these people. Call the police,” Olivia said in a calm tone. “I’m going to the bathroom first. Madam Burgess, prepare ssodium bicarbonate.”
Even though her hand wasn’t burned too badly, she had to deal with it as soon as possible. If not, her skin might be further
ruined.
Madam Burgess was puzzled. “Sodium what?”
“Baking soda. Hurry.”
Olivia hurried toward the bathroom.
Unbeknownst to her, the man with the two children was standing upstairs. He had quietly put his gun away.
A comforted look flashed across his dark eyes. She had grown up.
