Chapter 40
As soon as he said that, Olivia’s heart ski pped a beat.
But soon, she adjusted her mood. When she looked up again, she still smiled lightly and said, “Of
course, I care about Mr. Kinsman, so I especially did my research on him
It was obvious that Olivia was lying. William quietly watched her performance and did not believe a
word she said.
“Is that so? But no one outside my family has ever heard that Luci is allergic to ginger. Miss Clarke is
really resourceful.”
Then Mr. Kinsman is probably too confident in his own safety measures.” Olivia smiled sweetly, with a
hint of deliberate provocation in her smile.
William looked at her and wanted to say something, but at this time, the medical staff ran in in a hurry.
“Miss Clarke! Your wound has split open!”
“Quickly arrange for a bandage!”
For a moment, the scene became chaotic as doctors and nurses examined her and bandaged her up.
After Olivia’s wound was bandaged, she looked up and saw that William had already left.
She breathed a sigh of relief but frowned in an instant.
He was beginning to doubt her identity!
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have come to test her in the middle of the night.
Just now, because she had been shocked by the news that Ezra was allergic, her answer had been full
of mistakes. Even if William had not suspected anything before, he would have been suspicious of her
from today on.
She had to speed up the progress!
The ward quickly quieted down. Only then did Olivia realize that there was an unread message from
Gideon.
She didn’t want to stay in the ward any longer.

Olivia quickly edited a message and replied. Then, she got up, endured the pain all over her body,
changed her clothes, and went straight to the basement.
Gideon was nearby. When he received the news and rushed over, he saw Olivia coming out of the
elevator from a distance. So he parked the car directly at the elevator entrance.
He trotted out of the car and opened the door for Olivia. After she sat down, he carefully closed the
door and returned to the driver’s seat.
“Miss Clarke, did something happen? You seem to be in a worse condition than before. Should we
inform Reed?” Gideon was not in a hurry to start the car. Instead, he looked at her worriedly and asked.
When he left in the evening, although Olivia was a little tired, her face was not as pale as it was now.
Moreover, if one took a closer look, he would find that Olivia’s delicate face was covered with sweat.
“I met an assassin just now, and the wound split open. But it’s fine now. You don’t have to tell Reed.
Just ask him to take good care of Luci
Olivia fastened her seat belt and motioned for Gideon to start the car.
“What? Killer? Who sent him?”
“I don’t know, but he looks like the guy who did something to the car before, and he seems a
professional killer.”
“Miss Clarke, this is too dangerous. Let me protect you in the future!”
“Well, thank you for your hard work!” Olivia didn’t refuse this time.
If the killer was a professional one, she might not be able to deal with him, not to mention that she was
injured now. She hadn’t finished what she wanted to do yet, and she didn’t want to die before she could
finish her task!
“Miss Clarke, you don’t have to be so polite with me. This is my duty!” At this moment, Gideon looked
serious.
“You just sent me a message saying that you found Patrick, the special assistant who was responsible
for taking care of Grandpa back then.”
Patrick had been the personal assistant of Olivia’s Grandpa. When Grandpa was hospitalized, Patrick
had also been taking care of him in the hospital. After Grandpa died, Patrick also disappeared. In
recent years, Olivia had been looking for him, but there was no news about him.
He seemed to have deliberately hidden his tracks and disappeared into thin air.

His abnormal behavior made people feel that there was something wrong.
Therefore, over the past few years, Olivia had been looking for him. Even if it was to find a needle in a
haystack, she would get him out and find out what had happened back then!
“Yes, according to our intelligence network. Patrick has recently appeared in a villa area in the suburbs
of Melburgh. He did change his name and identity, but his face was detected by the surveillance
camera. We received the feedback from the real-time surveillance system and found him, and we also
tracked down his specific address.”
“Let’s go and have a look,” Olivia said directly.
“Miss Clarke, our men have already gone over there. How about I send you home to rest first?”
“No need. Let’s set off now to avoid unnecessary changes.” She didn’t want to wait until she found
Patrick.
Olivia’s attitude was very firm. Gideon couldn’t persuade her, so he drove out of the underground
garage and straight to the villa area in the eastern suburbs.
It was already three o’clock in the morning. There were only a few cars on the main street of Melburgh.
Gideon drove smoothly all the way and soon arrived at his destination.
At 1301 Building A, Cloudworth Villas.
The car stopped at the gate of the villa. Olivia got out of the car and walked toward the gate.
On the way here, they checked and found that this was basically a garden-style comprehensive villa
area. There were many buildings inside.
At this time, only the lights in the building in front of them were still on, as if someone had known that
they would come.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOlivia stood in front of the gate, took a deep breath, and pressed the doorbell with her small white
hand.
“Ding-do ng!” The doorbell rang three times in a row, but no one answered.
At this moment, Gideon parked his car and came to her side. He pressed the doorbell, but there was
no response.
Olivia stretched out her hand and pulled the doorknob. It was indeed locked inside.
The lights were on, but there was no response from inside. It gave her a bad feeling.
“Find a way to go in and have a look.”
Gideon nodded and began to check the windows around the villa.
There was only Olivia in front of the gate. She looked around and the dark atmosphere made her
subconsciously nervous. Just as Olivia was hesitating whether she should go back to the car and wait,
the gate in front of her suddenly opened. Gideon walked out and said, “Miss Clarke, there’s no one in
the room, but the tea on the table is still warm. They must have just left!”
“Chase after them!”
Olivia turned around and walked quickly toward the car.
But soon, she stopped. “Are our people nearby?”
“I’ve just contacted them. They’ve gone after them.” Gideon held his phone, and he had just received
the message.
“Tell them to search carefully. Let’s go in and have a look.” Olivia hesitated for a moment and made a
decision. Then she walked straight into the villa.
Gideon immediately sent the message to their people and then quickly followed behind Olivia.
“Do you think our men arrived here first and chased after them after seeing that no one was around?”
“Probably.
“Then who do you think locked the door?”
“Miss Clarke, do you mean that they are still in this house?”
“Let’s have a look first.”
