Chapter 262: 262: Date
Daniel Marshall quietly had his meal, occasionally glancing at Olivia Jenkins.
All that mattered was that his wife felt better!
The Jenkins Family was not worth Olivia’s time and mental effort. Were it not for Olivia, Daniel would not even bother with the chaotic affairs of Jenkins Group.
The muddled head of the Jenkins family always irritated him, being so obstinate, even more than his own grandfather. He truly felt sorry for Olivia, who had to struggle to keep the Jenkins Group afloat.
Daniel finished removing the bones from the fish before passing it on to Olivia. His deep eyes looked at her tenderly, his low voice sounding as melodious as a cello, “My dear, you can share your worries with me. I can try to analyze things for you, perhaps, I can offer you some good advice.”
“It’s nothing,” Olivia said indifferently, “I’m doing quite well. Life is life, and business is business- they should not be discussed in the same breath. Especially after work, I don’t want to talk about work.”
Daniel’s profound eyes sparkled with humor, “Alright, when off duty, I’ll spend time with you and enjoy life.”
Olivia faintly lifted her eyelid, casting a casual glance at Daniel.
She’d heard Daniel’s words but wouldn’t really take them to heart.
She would live her life as it goes, she didn’t care, nor was there something that could truly excite her.
The dried abalone was indeed delicious, the jumbo lobster was really sweet, and that was enough for her.
If one seeks too much, they’ll feel exhausted, and the disappointment would be proportionate as well, so it’s better to let things take their natural course.
After the meal, Daniel didn’t go straight home, he took Olivia out to watch a movie.
The movie theater was a bit crowded that night, Olivia didn’t want to be spotted with Daniel in public, so she refused.
“Darling, let’s set out for the sea.”
Remembering the last time they went out to sea when she was drunk and
Daniel took advantage of her, Olivia vowed not to go sailing with him again.
Instantly, Olivia’s eyes showed rejection, “Let’s just go home, have a bath and go to sleep. The doctor told you to get bed rest, but you didn’t listen to him. If you end up having complications, don’t blame me! ”
With a swish, Daniel grabbed Olivia’s hand and got her into the car.
Olivia thought they were going home. She rested her chin on her hand, leaning quietly against the car window.
Daniel looked at Olivia but didn’t disturb her.
About half an hour later, the car came to a stop.
Olivia thought they had reached home, but upon opening her eyes, she saw a towering, colorful Ferris wheel.
They were actually at the amusement park of the holiday resort center.
There were many people there too, Olivia didn’t like it and glared coldly at Daniel.
Daniel, taking no notice, led Olivia onto a sightseeing car.
Soon, the car entered the green channel heading towards the hotel.
Daniel and Olivia didn’t go to the guest rooms but headed to the swimming pool instead.
Separated by a transparent wall from the pool were a bunch of penguins.
Swimming in the pool gave one not only the opportunity to see the penguins but also feel as if swimming alongside them.
With an amused look, Daniel turned to Olivia and whispered in her ear, “So, do you still want to go home?”
Olivia’s eves darted about, biting her lower lip lißhtlv before she mumbled
somewhat unclearly, “Not bad!”
“Go and change your clothes, the coach is waiting for you.”
Since they were already there, Olivia decided to relax. She followed the staff to the changing room while Daniel sat by the pool, looking at his phone.
Seeing the diving suit she was wearing, Olivia thought it was just a simple scuba diving session to watch the penguins. But as soon as she entered the water, she instantly realized something was amiss..
